Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Motobu
For most travelers, Naha International Airport (OKA) is the primary and most practical gateway, located in Naha, not Motobu. It is the only airport on the main island, offering the most direct and frequent transport options via express buses and taxis. The remaining airports serve neighboring islands and are not in Motobu at all; they require complex, multi-modal travel involving sea crossings. Yoron Airport (RNJ), Okinoerabu Airport (OKE), Kumejima Airport (UEO), and Tokunoshima Airport (TKN) are all located on smaller, outlying islands. Travelers arriving at these smaller airports must rely on local island taxis or limited bus services to reach their respective ferry ports before catching a ferry to Okinawa Main Island. For international and long-haul domestic visitors, flying into Naha is strongly advised due to the substantial logistical difficulty and time commitment required to reach northern Okinawa from the outer islands.

The room and service were okay, but the room was incredibly humid. We stayed on the 7th floor for four days, and the bedding was so damp it caused us to break out in eczema. I understand it's unavoidable given the seaside location and unpredictable weather. You can snorkel right by the beach downstairs and see some small fish. However, the staff were lovely, and the room was cleaned thoroughly every day with all amenities replenished.FromUS$153

Very good hotel that can sleep 4 comfortably. Was very clean, very close, 5 mins walk to some food outlets e.g. Gongcha, potama sandwich etc. We took the free shuttle bus to Bise-fukugi tree road (keep walking till you reach the beach and timed to arrive before sunset to see the beautiful sky). Breakfast spread was very good. This is a hotel that i would recommend to family and friends.FromUS$278

The map navigated us to another building of the B&B, but it did state that the actual office was 700 meters further. It might be a bit hard to find if it were dark, but luckily we arrived in the early evening. The standalone cottage for two felt a bit too big for us! 😹 But the B&B was very thoughtful; it had all the pots, pans, and cutlery. There were even fireworks in the living room (for an extra charge if used). The kitchen also had salt and oil, which was a nice touch. Upstairs, there was a tatami common area; it felt like you could fit several people if you just put down some mattresses. The only downside is probably having to go downstairs to the bathroom in the middle of the night, and I was a bit worried about falling. 🤭FromUS$75

Service: I was initially given the wrong floor upon check-in, but after a brief discussion, it was corrected. The service was excellent overall. There was even a lady who spoke Chinese.
Environment: The rooms were very large; all rooms seem to have sea views. I booked a Japanese-English style combination room, with a large balcony offering excellent views overlooking the hotel's private beach. The sea was beautiful.
Facilities: Separate wet and dry areas, and all necessary amenities were provided.
The breakfast was quite substantial, changing my previously negative impression of Japanese breakfasts.FromUS$166

There is nothing around, driving is a bit difficult to find, the feeling of paradise (desolate), walking to the beach for ten minutes, two snorkeling spots on the island, snorkeling is very good, many fish, the water is not cold
Price 1800, breakfast can be selected in some cafes nearby, check-out time is a bit pit at 10 am, the ecology is very good, so there will be small gecko in the room. There are many mosquitoes outside, but there is no indoor, suitable for a family, bedside lamp and bed bottom are dirtyFromUS$172

The environment is very beautiful. There is a little black cat basking in the sun every morning in the small garden. The kitchen is well equipped. Our family bought local fresh ingredients from a nearby supermarket and ate hot pot directly in the B&B.
Disadvantages: There is only one bathroom. Our family of five has to queue up to take a shower at night, which is a bit inconvenient.
In addition, the bed is not very comfortable. The pillow is very thin. I don't sleep well.FromUS$343
