Star ratings are intended to indicate the general level of features, amenities, and services to expect. This property is classified according to Giata.
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Stay on the Ocean Wing side. The Churaumi Aquarium is within walking distance and the view from the rooms is outstanding. We can feel the strength of the Orion Brewery capital and operations. The facilities are very tasteful, and I get the impression that they pay attention to every corner of the room from the lobby. The room was also fine and the shampoos were the same as JAL's international First Lounge. The breakfast buffet is plentiful and seems to satisfy both adults and children. It is also comfortable to wear loungewear and slippers from the room floor to the hot springs. It's outperforming the big hotel brands in the same price range in terms of facilities, and I think it's going to be even better if we get used to it.

It was a wonderful hotel. First of all, the view from the window was amazing. I still can't forget the excitement I felt when I woke up and opened the curtains in the morning. We had meals at an izakaya and at the breakfast buffet, and both were very delicious. The only thing that bothered me was that there was something like black mold in the grout of the tiles in the bath, and there was a hair lying around, but even with that, everything else was wonderful, so I really liked it. We didn't use the pool this time. We went to Emerald Beach right in front of the hotel, and there was air to inflate the swim rings, towels were available for free in the hotel, and the other facilities were very convenient. And it was great that there was a hot spring. The shop in the hotel also had a great selection, and most things were there, so I thought we wouldn't have any trouble. I bought a cute dress. My family liked the beautiful glass bracelets and bought them. We also bought a bag and beach sandals with an Orion beer design. The large Orion Beer bag is convenient for carrying your belongings when you go to the beach, and can be used as a souvenir bag when you return, and the shoulder strap is adjustable, so I'm glad I bought it.
Also, next to the shop there was a hands-on class, where my child tried painting a whale shark. We'd never had an experience like this before, so it was a great time and a good memory. I also thought it was great that they had a hands-on class inside the hotel. If I had to say one thing I regret, I didn't have time to eat breakfast on the morning we checked out, so I'd like to enjoy it next time I visit. Also, if you come early in the morning you can get a seat at the breakfast buffet without too much time, but if you're a little late you have to wait in line, so if that could be eliminated it would be even more perfect.

Rinkai Hotel is located in northern Okinawa, about three hours by bus. Every room has a view facing the sea, and you can watch the sunset, the distant horizon and the scenery on the beach. Really relaxing. The room is large and has a large sofa and balcony seats. But the western sun is more severe. There are coin-operated laundry machines and drink vending machines on the floor. There is only one convenience store, Lawson, next to the hotel, which is a five-minute walk. Some snacks can be purchased. The breakfast was delicious and the paid dinner izakaya meal was great. It is very close to the Ocean Expo Park from the hotel, but the sun is really strong and hot in Okinawa in summer, so it is not recommended to go out at noon. There is a small shop in the hotel where you can buy some souvenirs, and they also sell BLUE SEAL ice cream, which has a delicious brown sugar flavor.

This resort hotel is located on the Motobu Peninsula, about an hour and a half's drive from Naha. We chose an ocean view room, which was a great choice as the emerald green scenery was spectacular. The hotel was clean and tidy, and the staff were very friendly. The spacious hot spring with a view of the ocean is in a great location. There is also a dry sauna, and being able to see the ocean from the sauna is impressive. The breakfast venue can get crowded at times, but the staff are efficient and you can get in without having to wait too long. There is also a wide variety of food on offer, which is nice. This is a hotel I would definitely like to visit again.

This is one of those hotels that has large groups of people on tour buses come in. So if you are on one of those tours, I would say that this hotel is great. But if you are not: There is only one restaurant that does not do course menu, and this restaurant gets booked by the tour buses, so your only options to eat at the hotel are to pay 8000 yen for dinner unless you want to just eat pizza at the Italian restaurant. The Orion bar does not have real food, just some snacks to go with your beer. Normally this wouldn't matter except the hotel is in sort of an isolated area, so your other options for dinner/lunch are pretty limited especially if you do not have a car. Luckily there is a Family mart nearby for necessities. We walked about 20 minutes and found a small chain restaurant and ate there.
Our room appeared to look nice, however, the floor was covered in sand, and the sofa smelled bad. Luckily they had clean slippers and we just ended up sitting on our clean beds for our trip. Bathroom/shower were clean.
Breakfast was very nice and there were a lot of options. It does get super crowded so make sure to go on the earlier side. An hour after opening, there was a line that went way out the door.
The pool was clean. Please note that the infinity pool is limited only to guests staying in the club wing, but that was fine since the pool downstairs was nice enough. We did not visit the beachfront area, but it looked nice from our hotel room.

The room was very spacious and the location was great as I could walk to the nearby Churaumi and Bisefukugi forest trails. Even though I booked a basic room, I stayed comfortably. All rooms had ocean views, so the view was great, and the garden was well maintained, making it great for taking a walk. There were student groups traveling during the visit, so it was disappointing to be able to rest quietly. There was no separate kids lounge or program, and the breakfast menu was a bit disappointing.

Located right in front of Emerald Beach, this hotel offers excellent views and access to the surrounding area (Churaumi Aquarium, Bise, etc.). Both facilities and services are satisfactory. However, I couldn't swim because the beach with the most beautiful water and many creatures in the middle of the three beaches in Emerald Beach was closed to swimming because of sea turtle spawn.

I stayed there for three nights. The first night was comfortable, but from the second night, the noise, perhaps footsteps from the floor above or next door, became increasingly painful. It was an Ocean Kids room, so perhaps the guests with the loudest noise limit were also bringing their children, but was it a structural problem that caused the noise to resonate so much? The view and facilities were beautiful, but that was the only thing that was disappointing.

Hotel Orion Motobu Resort was an oasis. The site feels brand new, with big, comfortable, clean, and eco-friendly rooms. Positives: beautiful view of the sea from balcony, free parking, tasty breakfast included, the Okinawan restaurant was outstanding for trying local foods, attentive staff, the property sits right on the Expo park. Negatives: no gym, no room service, the spa was closed at the time due to the COVID state of emergency which was understandable. Also, nearby Bise tree grove is fun to explore, but, I think due to it being summer, there were large spiders everywhere in the trees!

I always go to Okinawa for scuba diving. This time I stayed one night from New Year's Eve to New Year's Day over the New Year. All rooms have an ocean view and are spacious, over 50m2. It has a luxurious feel and is very clean. What surprised me was that when the staff carried our luggage, they took off our shoes outside the door before entering our room. They were friendly but also well-mannered, and the hospitality was excellent. There was a buffet for both breakfast and dinner, and the menu was extensive and delicious. It's also great for divers that there is a laundry on each floor. This is a hotel I would definitely like to stay at again.

No problem in Marrakesh with tattoos I have a full back and 2 sleeves but as always be respectful I have never removed my t-shirt of the hotel sight to go anywhere but around the hotels never a problem and my arms are mostly always on view. My second home. Hope this helps.
