Motobu Hotels with Parking

Okinawa is one of those places I keep going back to every year — whether it’s a short escape or a long vacation, I just need to visit somehow. I love the perfect balance between Japan and the West. The vibe is relaxed, driving is easy, the accommodations are great, and everything feels peaceful and not overly crowded. There’s also so much good food to explore, plus tons of shopping spots without the chaos and competition you usually find in Tokyo. Highly recommended for everyone 🤍

Had a fantastic stay! The cabin was spotless and well-equipped with cutlery, a microwave, an induction cooktop, and even a 'black gold' stove (presumably a type of heating plate). This was incredibly convenient for late-night snacks if you wanted a relaxed evening. Communication with the management was excellent; our check-in was delayed due to travel plans, but they were very accommodating and we were still able to check in smoothly, which offered great flexibility for our trip. The included breakfast was like a typical Western-style home breakfast, but sometimes they had Japanese onigiri, which was a nice little treat to try. Since the cabin is a standalone unit, we didn't have to worry about disturbing anyone, even when staying up late. This is a huge plus for families with kids or groups of friends traveling together.

Excellent location, the hotel is a 10-minute walk from Ocean Park, and there are two beautiful beaches nearby. There are also two bus stops, a Lawson convenience store, and a restaurant close by. If you walk towards the wild beach, you'll find plenty of restaurants and cafes along the way. We walked everywhere. The road from the bus stop to the hotel is uphill, but it's not too tiring, just a 9-minute walk on a good path. You can rent electric bikes at the hotel for 2000 yen per day, or pay by the hour. Our stay was very convenient and comfortable. It's a condominium, and the room has everything you need for cooking and laundry. The room was clean. The stove is gas, but it's easy to use. There's a microwave and all the necessary utensils, including a frying pan and dishes, as well as a washing machine and dryer. The front desk staff was very kind and helped us check in after the official check-in time after we called them (our flight was delayed, but they left the key in our room). I had to ask an airport staff member at the service desk to call the hotel for us, as it's impossible for foreigners to buy a Japanese SIM card for calls (they only sell them for internet at the airport). You can order breakfast: bento boxes are delivered to the hotel every morning and they are quite tasty. At the front desk, there are drip coffee bags, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. After check-out (by 11 am), they allowed us to leave our luggage at the front desk until the evening so we could enjoy Ocean Park and the aquarium one last time without carrying our bags.

The room was spacious with a huge balcony offering expansive views, great for watching the sunset. Free parking was available, and having a convenience store downstairs was very handy. However, some pillows had a slight odor, and the dryer took a very long time to dry clothes.

Beautiful hotel with a spacious room facing Motobu harbor. Location is nicely remote while not being too far from famous attractions and amenities. Rooms were very well kept with a clean tatami sitting area. Definitely recommended for couples or groups.

The guesthouse is located in the countryside. Not very convenient, but really quiet and peaceful. I spent a relaxing time there, sleeping early and awaking early everyday. The owners are very nice. The breakfasts every morning are tasty. The house is full of Beatles’ posters and discs. I love the vintage vibe so much. The cleanliness is acceptable. There were some little geckos and insects in the room. But it was understandable because of the location. The wifi is not working. I was compelled to take a social detox. Lol.

I had a great stay at Royal View Hotel Churaumi. The location is definitely the highlight — it’s only about a 5-minute walk to Churaumi Aquarium, which made visiting incredibly convenient. The hotel itself is very clean and well-maintained. Everything felt fresh and comfortable throughout my stay. The staff were also very kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I especially enjoyed the breakfast. They served local Okinawan dishes, and everything was delicious — a nice way to experience the local cuisine without leaving the hotel. Another plus is the convenience store right in front of the hotel, which is very handy for quick snacks or anything you might need. Overall, a very comfortable and convenient place to stay, especially if you plan to visit the aquarium.

Many people said it wasn't very clean, but for us, it was okay, acceptable cleanliness. Located on an island, it might not be suitable for those without a car. It's quite isolated and quiet at night. I recommend checking in before dark. The owner provided excellent service.

When you leave the hotel, it's like a private beach. The view is amazing. However, the facilities are not that great. The toilet doesn't have a washlet. The shower is the type that sprays water. The pressure is weak and it doesn't feel like you're washing properly. On top of that, the curtain in the unit bath was broken and came off. It was fixed the next day, but I was pretty tired after taking a bath. It was a cheap hotel with a nice view, but I realized that facilities are quite important during my solo trip.

This is the first time I have seen a hotel in Japan that has poor cleanliness. There was even a contact lens thrown in the sink. The cleanliness is really poor.
