Mambo Hostel Okinawa

Motobu

Set in Motobu, 2.1 km from Emerald Beach, Mambo Hostel Okinawa offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking and a shared lounge. The property is located 2.1 km from Bise Beach, 7.4 km from Nakijin Gusuku Castle and 42 km from Onna-son Community Center. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and free WiFi. This Hostel was amazing. The design was very welcoming and nature focused which is something that I love. Because of its location you have nature all around you and the atmosphere is very peaceful, me and my friends would spend hours relaxing in a hammock listening to the sounds of birds and crickets. During my stay while my friends chose to stay in the shared rooms, which were also really beautiful and clean, I chose a private room which was to my surprise enormous with a private balcony that takes half of the whole second floor, totally worth it! The location is also 20 minutes walking distance from the Okinawa aquarium which is a nice plus, there’s also a beach next to it but we couldn’t go swimming because swimming season starts in April. The staff was exceptional, no doubts about it. She event prepared us dinner and answered any questions we had very openly and with a smile. To be honest we were kind of sad to say goodbye because although we only stayed for two nights it felt a little bit like home. I’m hopping I could visit again.

The property is around 1.5 km from Kakibaru Beach, 2 km from Sesoko Beach and 10 km from Nakijin Gusuku Castle. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. I really want to say thank u to sasaki for helping me so much. At the end of the day I stayed there, I walk ed to the Sesoko Beach and i suddenly noticed that if I walk to the bus stop I wouldn’t catch it. Then sasaki San drives me to the bus station generously. I really have to say I have a sweet memory in Okinawa, traveling alone in sesoko island. The hostel is amazing, warm, and comfortable.i think I will back again to see the summer scenery there.

Holiday House Ryukyu-an "MUSIC HOSTEL" 1 stars

Yomitan

Located just a 12-minute drive from Cape Maeda, famous for its beautiful scenery, clear waters and snorkelling, Holiday House Ryukyu-an "MUSIC HOSTEL" offers a self-catering holiday home with free WiFi access. I had an incredible week at this hostel in Okinawa. It's safe to say this was the best hostel experience I've ever had. The atmosphere was incredibly welcoming, with music in the living room and fun movie nights. One of the standout features was the option to rent a scooter at a very affordable price, which made exploring the island a breeze. Plus, having a nearby gym with a $2 entry fee was a fantastic bonus. The hostel's location was perfect, making it easy to access all the attractions on the island. The host was a true gem – not only did they create a warm and homely atmosphere, but they also served up some delicious breakfast, especially those mouthwatering pancakes. Staying here felt like being among friends, and I made some amazing connections during my stay. In my travels around Japan, this hostel, without a doubt, had the best host. The value for the price was outstanding, and I'm truly grateful for such a memorable experience. If you're heading to Okinawa, I can't recommend this place enough. It's a home away from home and an unforgettable journey.
