"Pros: Nice room with a huge balcony and awesome mountain view. Host was also friendly, providing some good tips on what to visit in the vicinity. Cons: Nothing comes to mind" ~Peter

"Pros: The resort has its own beach which, with coral white sand and turquoise sea, is heavenly. The swimming area is well patrolled and is very safe for families with small children. The landscaping of the resort is lovely and there's a great tree which hosts several bats every evening, which we really liked. The buffet breakfast had just about enough western options; similarly the dinner buffet. The swimming pools are lovely, again, ideal for families with children, and the onsen and sauna were great. We had a room in the Main cottage section of the site, which was spacious, clean and comfortable. Cons: Since this is a resort geared towards Japanese families we found some of the restrictions slightly unexpected: the swimming pool doesn't open until 9am so a swim before breakfast is not an option. There is no gym either. The kayaking hire is heavily controlled and you can't go outside a certain area, similarly, you must wear a buoyancy aid for snorkelling within the swimming area. You can't snorkel outside it. The dinner options for western tastes are limited to the buffet which is too much to eat every night. Staff were very nice, but spoke little English and there is no bar for residents. There is an airport shuttle (it's a two hour transfer) but it only runs once a day, and our flight arrived in the evening, so an expensive taxi journey was our only option. The north of Okinawa is a peaceful area, and having a car would have been good on rainy days, where otherwise, there is nothing to do. This was the most expensive stay on a three week holiday in Japan, and though beautiful, for the facilities and lack of international flavour, I thought it was a bit overpriced." ~Anne
