Hyakunagaran

901-0603 Okinawa, Nanjo, Tamagusuku Aza Hyakunayamashitabaru 1299-1, Japan
HOTEL OVERVIEW
You know what hit me first about Hyakunagaran? The silence. I mean, you’re tucked away in this corner of Nanjo that most tourists never see – down in Tamagusuku where the roads get narrow and wind through actual neighborhoods instead of resort strips. It’s maybe twenty minutes from Naha airport, but honestly feels like you’ve escaped to a completely different island. The property sits on this elevated spot where you can actually see the coastline stretching out, and there’s something almost meditative about how removed it feels from the usual Okinawa tourist circuit.
The thing about this place – and I stayed here twice now, once in spring and again last fall – is that it’s clearly designed by someone who gets what luxury actually means when you’re trying to decompress. The rooms are spacious in that Japanese way where every inch serves a purpose, but nothing feels cramped or overthought. I particularly loved how they handle the bathroom situation; there’s this deep soaking tub that faces out toward the grounds, and you can actually relax without feeling like you’re on display. The staff seems to anticipate what you need before you ask, which can feel a bit intense at first if you’re used to more casual places, but honestly? After a day or two you start appreciating how seamlessly everything just works.
What really sets Hyakunagaran apart – and this might sound small but it matters – is how they’ve managed to create this bubble of calm without making you feel cut off from Okinawa itself. You’re close enough to drive to the Sefa-utaki sacred site in about ten minutes, and there’s this little local market in Tamagusuku village where the owner’s grandmother still makes the best sata andagi I’ve had on the island. The hotel staff actually knows about places like this and will point you toward the real spots, not just the obvious tourist destinations. Plus, the location means you can hit the southern beaches early before the tour buses arrive, then retreat back to your quiet corner of the world. It’s expensive, sure – we’re talking serious money here – but for that 9.3 rating and five-star experience, you’re getting something pretty special. The kind of place where you actually feel rested when you leave, not just like you’ve been somewhere fancy.

Traveler from Poland (27 August 2024)
Great view. Very good food. We had super nice presidential suite. (A bit used ) What could be improved: The property is a bit old . There are some parts that shall be changed upgraded . The owner shall invest money in order to have high standard and not destroyed parts with this cost . I did not liked that we did not get breakfast when leaving...
Tse from Singapore (25 August 2024)
Hyakuna Garan is a beautiful gem, slightly quirky yet delightful. Set off a cliff (the lobby is on the 3rd level), the cliff face is lushly landscaped with trees and plants growing among a few large Ghibli-esque statues. The public areas are wonderful with glass panels allowing viewing of the "Ghibli" landscape on the cliff side and offering open...

Abdullah from Singapore (14 July 2024)
Everything. The journey/drive to Hyakunagaran from the airport. From entering the carpark, the welcoming staff, the reception and the 86sqm room with 2x queen size bed each right up to the roof top bath. These are the best physical spaces we did not expect (booked with only limited info). Importantly both wife and I were so relaxed that we will be...
Rene from Germany (27 June 2024)
Extremely friendly staff and a very pleasant stay in general. The rooms are nice and everything is clean and spacious. The staff really tries everything to realise your wishes. Proper 5 star service. The little remote area protects you from bigger tourism groups and there is a nice cafe just next to the hotel in the hills. What could be improved:...
Maxime from Hong Kong (22 February 2024)
