Martinelli Vineyard Tours and Activities

Nice view of the marina. Very comfortable. Nice to have a counter and mirror outside the bathroom. Wish there had been lotion available.

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. My room was a little warm so I asked to be moved. I was told that the AC actually turns off after no motion or activity in the room. Not sure how true that is. But it was unusually humid and sticky in the room. I did not get a good nights rest for the three nights I was there. The property itself is a little outdated, but that I’m sure leads to the charm. I do feel like pictures online should reflect the true character of the hotel. I don’t believe there was enough picture. Had I seen more, I probably would not have chosen this hotel. Smelled a little old as well. I’m sure someone else would love it, but it was not for me.

Our stay at Okaeri Hotel was truly one of the most memorable travel experiences my wife and I have ever had. The co-owner personally welcomed us and gave us a tour of the property while sharing its fascinating history. That personal touch immediately made us feel at home and added so much character to our stay. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. The garden is peaceful and meticulously maintained, and the indoor lounge is unlike anything we’ve seen before—it features a stunning swimming pool that has been transformed into a large koi pond, with each koi fish even having its own name! The hotel also has a fun karaoke lounge, beautifully renovated rooms, and a relaxing Japanese-style soaking tub. The entire property reminded us of the elegant Japanese home featured in the Drops of God Apple TV+ series, complete with an impressive wine cellar that adds to the hotel’s unique charm. To top it all off, breakfast the next morning was exceptional—a delicious three-course meal thoughtfully prepared by the chef. Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. This was, without question, the best hotel experience my wife and I have ever had. We can’t wait to return and bring our friends and family so they can experience it for themselves. Okaeri Hotel deserves a perfect 10/10. Highly recommended!
