Tokashiki Pet-friendly Vacations

Nice hotel in a good location

Pros: rooms are great (we stayed in the condo) - huge apartment, washing machine, small equipped kitchen. No complaints about the room at all! Lunch options: decent takeaway at the deli! Reasonably priced and tasty! Cons: - Pools: there are only 2 at the property. Pools are great, but honestly quite small for the number of guests at the resort. There were a lot of screaming and splashing children, which is fine, just would have been great to have an adults only pool option. - Beach: the beach is shocking to get to. I thought other reviews seemed dramatic, but it is over a busy road, the path is super unclear and the ‘beach house’ was almost impossible to find. Honestly not sure how people headed across with small children! - Restaurant: the BBQ restaurant in the hotel was pretty bad. Food was poor quality, mountains of dirty dishes were everywhere. Nowhere near good enough at a 5-star hotel and given the price point!

Wonderful accommodation for staying in Okinawa

Great hotel and the restaurant is lovely. It is great having the help yourself lounge and pool bar but would be nice to have the option to have a serviced bar too with a larger selection / more premium selection of drinks as there is little open late around in the local area. Especially as the staff were very accommodating in areas where they were working and very kind and helpful!

Great Accomodation,

We stayed at Ryukyu Hotel & Resort Nashiro Beach for three nights and found it to be a great option for families, especially those with young children. The pools and beach were the highlights of our stay. However, do note that the afternoon tide can significantly lower the water level, making swimming less enjoyable during those hours. We visited during a very hot and rainy period, which limited some activities. Breakfast and lunch at the hotel were excellent, with a good variety and quality. That said, if you don’t have a rental car, transportation becomes a challenge,taxis are necessary to reach nearby cities or attractions. A key tip: renting a car in Okinawa requires an International Driver's Permit (IDP), which you must obtain in advance (e.g., from AAA in the U.S.). We were surprised by this requirement and unable to rent a car, which limited our ability to explore the island fully. Additionally, any tours or island visits often need to be booked well in advance, so plan ahead. The hotel caters mostly to families with children. While it’s a very nice property, adults traveling without children may find the atmosphere less relaxing.

While the property is pleasant, I feel that the price does not fully reflect the value offered. For instance, the minibar is not complimentary, especially the nearest supermarket is a 10-minute drive away. Providing a one-time complimentary minibar would be a thoughtful gesture to make travelers feel more valued.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this exceptional 5-star resort in Nago, Japan, and without a doubt, it was one of the finest hospitality experiences we've ever had. From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us with a level of warmth and professionalism that immediately made us feel at home. Every detail was handled with care—from the seamless check-in to the personalized service throughout our stay. The room was absolutely stunning: spacious, immaculate, and elegantly designed with modern comforts and traditional Japanese touches. Our suite offered breathtaking ocean views, a serene private balcony, and thoughtful amenities that exceeded expectations, including plush bedding, luxury bath products, and state-of-the-art technology. What truly set this resort apart was the service. Every team member we encountered was genuinely kind, attentive, and proactive. Whether it was arranging transportation (including a shuttle from Naha), our dining, taxis, or simply greeting us each time we saw them, the hospitality was unmatched. The amenities were equally impressive. The resort boasts a serene infinity pool overlooking the coast, a world-class spa with traditional Japanese treatments, and several outstanding restaurants featuring locally sourced ingredients and impeccable presentation. Every meal was a culinary highlight. I would highly recommend this resort and can't wait to go back to Okinawa so we can stay here again.
