The Orion Hotel Motobu Resort & Spa

I highly recommend this hotel! 1. **Convenient Transportation**: Although it takes about two to three hours by bus from Naha Airport, the bus is direct. The scenery along the way is beautiful, and there's a rest stop in the middle for a restroom break. The bus drops you off right at the hotel entrance, so it feels like a scenic tour bus. 2. **Spacious and Cozy Room**: The room has a long sofa that can easily sleep one to two children. The bedding is incredibly comfortable, and both the bathroom and toilet are large. The overall decor features natural wood tones, which feels very relaxing and soothing. 3. **Fantastic Balcony Sea View**: We were given a front-facing room on the second-highest floor, offering an unobstructed view of the beach and the sea – truly relaxing. 4. **Hotel Amenities**: You can enjoy the hot springs daily, and the beach is just a stone's throw away. The hotel's private garden is also exquisite and beautiful. The aquarium is about a 10-minute walk, or you can take the shuttle car from the path near the garden. 5. **Dining**: The hotel breakfast perfectly suited my taste. For dinner, we chose the izakaya, which offered most Okinawan specialty dishes. 6. **Exceptional Service**: The most commendable part! We accidentally left our shoes in the room when checking out. We contacted the hotel via email and received a prompt reply. They then shipped our shoes to our hotel in Naha within two days, assisting with communication throughout the process. A huge thumbs-up! I highly recommend it to everyone! PS: It was raining during our stay, but the beauty of the scenery was still evident!

Fantastic, exceeded expectations! I booked a Club room and the service was amazing. The front desk staff even waved goodbye. Service was really on point, super impressed!

We stayed for two nights at this hotel in northern Okinawa, near the Churaumi Aquarium. Even though it's far from the city and there's no shopping mall, it was a really pleasant vacation. The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the aquarium, so you can sleep in and head over there. There's also a Lawson convenience store nearby for any essentials. Just cross the road from the hotel and you're on a beautiful beach with fine white sand, perfect for kids. The rooms are very spacious, offering plenty of room to move around, and they face the ocean, so you can watch the sunset. The hotel has a public bath. When we booked, the two rooms had different prices. One included two bath tickets, while the other required a purchase of 1700 JPY per person. Luckily, we had two 1000 JPY vouchers to offset the cost. The mini-bar in the room is free, with two cans of beer and two cans of fruit wine soda. Each person can also get a free beer or tea at the lobby every day, so you can fully enjoy Okinawan beer. The breakfast at the restaurant is also quite good, with plenty of Okinawan specialties. My only regret is the hotel restaurant's capacity. When we checked in around 3 PM, we tried to book dinner for that evening, but all three hotel restaurants were already full. The earliest availability was after 8 PM, and they couldn't reach Chinese mobile numbers, so we had to wait for a message in our room. If we hadn't found another restaurant outside the hotel that could seat us, my child would have been hungry for several hours. Being in a hotel already far from the city, I felt quite helpless at that moment.
