ごーやー荘 — Hotel in Okinawa

Wonderful stay for our first night in Okinawa. We had a kind of rough start : indeed, after over 15+ hours of travel, we were so tired that, arriving from bus from Okinawa airport, we mistakenly took another suitcase than ours. Our hotel host, Hide Noshita, managed to make all complex operations / phone calls to find out our suitcase. He later on drove over 2 hours to make the suitcase exchange, located up north in Nago. Apart from being a very sweet, helpful, resourceful gentleman, he provided great advice on what to visit, where to go / to eat, how to leave. He also played and sang on "shin-san" for us. Thank you so much Hide...

The host is exceptionally welcoming, and if you visit the bar in the evening, you’re sure to enjoy a memorable night. Immerse yourself in Okinawan cuisine and the timeless beauty of a traditional Japanese house. I wholeheartedly recommend...
