The Pool Resort Okinawa

Design, pool, inflatables, space

Extra charge for towels

we had our own trailer. had lots of room and Was great having a personal washer and dryer, especially since we had 2 pets.Had a personal kitchen area too so it saves money rather than going out all the time for food. was very clean, and they did a cleaning a week in so no need to worry about it being dirty during your stay as long as you don’t build up an excess of trash. If you are flying in or flying out, it is quite a distance from the airport but they do have a shuttle service. So do your research of what you are willing to do.

Nothing to note in this section

The view and the pool was very pretty but it doesn’t open until April 1st. I felt like I was catfished. Everything looked gorgeous online, but it was old and run down once I arrived.

Jacuzzi was not in service. RoomSmelled of mold. Beds terribly uncomfortable. Night staff unfriendly.Walls super thin. Our upstairs neighbors kept us up past midnight.

The idea/concept is nice but it’s just very old. The jacuzzi was not open, looked like there were barely other guests. When you arrive the employee already tells you that there is no roomcleaning during the stay (we stayed 6 nights) and if we wanted new towels we needed to go to reception and change them…The kitchen in our room has supplies but if you want plates or cutlery you have to go to reception to pick it up? ? all very weird for me..

Check in was very smooth (around 1900). Must provide pet vaccination records which is a good measure in protecting everyone. Amenities in the cabins were top-notch, zero mechanical issues, appliances and shower appear new (<2yrs old). The kitchen was well-equipped with everything you need to cook for yourself (thought the refrigerator/freezer is of small size: Cabin 5 has 2 double beds and 3 single loft beds plus a couch. The refrigerator is not large enough for any more than maybe 1 day of provisions for a group that size. However, still very nice to have!

This is not an issue with the hotel, but an occasional facet of online booking: I made a reservation through booking.com for 2 nights with a pet room, but the hotel was not aware that I had a pet and only had a pet room available for the first night, so I had to cancel the second night. If you are traveling with a pet, please note it in the additional comments for your reservation.

The room connected to the pool, which was a nice touch. Near to eating places and convenience stores.

The property is a little old.

It was a perfect place for kids. They could just dive into the pool directly from the balcony.As written in the hotel website the facility is not a new and great but the atmosphere was great.

They have two washing machines and two dryers each but one of dryers was out of order. A few families waited to use one dryer in the evening and it took a long time to be able to use it. I hope the hotel will fix it soon .

Actually the score is just for the pool,because my children like it and having a really good time at there.

Reason for deduction：1. damp musty smell2. cockroaches are infested and need to be treated with insecticide 3. the footsteps upstairs are really noisy,can’t sleep well 2 nights.

my kids enjoy the jaccuzi

my dog not allowed to stay cuz the room is not for the pet. we tried to change the rm to cottage but its not available. they can't do anything so we decide to bring my dog back home！

Washing machine and pool

Many ants in the penthouse

Very friendly staff and rooms were comfortable for children. Pool was excellent and child friendly although slightly dated.

Polite staff

The second day the pool wasn’t clean. Many bugs and leaves. The water looked misty

everything besides the beds.

Have the option to have beds turn into a full-sized bed. I had to put the twin beds together for my wife.

Loved that the pool was right by the room

Hot tub was broken and dirtyPool was slimy and needs to be cleanedThey charge you for everything (towels, parking, EVERYTHING) Wasn’t very clean rooms

Really nice pool and two jacuzzis, and you can get into the pool right from your balcony. The place has a cool retro vibe and I loved the illuminations at night. There's a really lovely beach (Kibogaoka Beach) within walking distance. They provided insecticide which came in useful when a cockroach got in! I also liked that they provided mosquito repellant devices. There is a nice barbecue area.

The plug outlets were in inconvenient places. The layout of the room was weird in general, and there was a step in an unexpected place that all 3 of us fell down at least once! It was advertised as self catering but we had to go borrow cutlery, crockery etc from the front desk every time we needed it. The bathroom was very small. The bedroom smelled kind of mouldy. There was nowhere to hang up wet swimsuits, although there were coin-op tumble dryers. There are no restaurants or supermarkets nearby so you have to drive quite far.

The room that we got was spacious and clean. The location is easy to get to, and there’s a convenience store 4 mins away and a few restaurants nearby.

The front desk area smells musty

I stayed at this place twice during my trip to Okinawa, both in a poolside apparently as in a separate condo. The condo is definitely better as the poolside rooms have very thin walls. The condo also had its own private washer and dryer. The staff was so incredibly friendly and went out of their way to accommodate me in every way. We will definitely be back!

You will end up falling in love with one of the stray cats on the property and spend a ridiculous amount of money to fly her home with you ;)

The cottages were really nice and spacious. My dog was very comfortable there and it was a great place to relax

The hotel part is a bit old and run down.

The room/apartment we booked was very spacious. We had a nice, small beach as well as a konbini (mini-supermarket) within walking distance. The staff were very friendly and helpful but didn't speak English, so get Google Translate ready if you don't speak any Japanese. Available washing machines+dryers, (free) extra cutlery we could borrow, a vending machine outside the building and such also added to the convenience.They also have lots of cute cats in the area. I don't think you're supposed to let them in and feed them, but some of them are always up for pets and cuddles!

Unfortunately the swimming pool (and jacuzzi) were under maintenance for almost all of our stay, so we weren't able to use it.The bathroom was also very small, which was a bit unpractical for us as (relatively big) Westerners.It's not close to many tourist attractions, so make sure you get a car if you want to get around a lot!

Very spacious room with comfortable beds and private bathroom. There is a very convenient parking lot in front of the hotel and the reception is open until 22:00.

It is a bit difficult to reach
