New hotel with equal pros and cons.
"New hotel so condition of establishment is generally pleasing and comfortable. Twin room is considerably of good size given Japanese standards.

新しいホテルで沖縄らしい南国リゾートを満喫！
"観光で２泊しました。 空港からのアクセスは良く車で20-30分ほど。 新しいホテルとあって、外観内観ともに綺麗で、南国のリゾート感に溢れています。プールと南国の木々、そして目の前に広がるビーチは沖縄感を満喫できます。 そして部屋からの海の眺めと潮の匂いは最高な気分！ ブレックファーストは噂通り種類が豊富で味もなかなかでした。お腹いっぱいになっちゃいます（笑） ただ一点、車で行くと宿泊者でも一日毎に駐車料金が取られるのはちょっと残念な気分になります。。。"
