Fantastic stay, as a hostel. A few bad guests, but that's not the hostels doing. Using laundry at 11.35pm and the spinning was vibrating my bed. Cell phone from someone's bed in dorm on my last night going off every 5 to 7 minutes well past midnight. When I told them to turn if off they didn't and it went off all night and morning. Anyway, this hostel has everything to be comfortable. Absolutely adore the samples. Only knew about this on last day as was out everyday before. Mini perfume was so nice. Doesn't feel like a hostel, but like staying at a friend's house. It looks like an apartment. Free laundry too.
This is dormitory guesthouse with the price premium budget, stay with 22 other guests in one room. No towel or toothbrush provided. Easy to find the place, just around the corner of the Naha terminal bus. Had to carry luggage up to the 4th floor with narrow staircase. The single cubicle was hot and stuffy. You have to make your own bed. If you only looking for a night to sleep, it's fine but not advisable to stay here better chip in a bit more for better stay and more comfortable. An envelope was prepared with yoir name on it provided the door code number at the entrance. Unfortunately, my unlucky stay, I arrived at the hotel on 28th October passed midnight, I found that the bed 15 was already occupied. When I confronted the guest, he showed me his booking bed 15 as well. This caused significant inconvenience, as I had to squeeze myself with my partner in bed 16. Unable to arrange new bed as no answer from the the guesthouse. I tailor 2 adults but the bed was occupied by others. It was bad experience.
The owner of Ohana guesthouse is amazing! The kindest and most hospitable man i have met. Even though his english is not all that good he really listens with interest and tries to connect. He cooks every night and you're invited to join for a very low price. When we ate together (Hotpot) and everyone was speaking japanese he kept trying to include me in the conversation. When i left after two days he even waved goodbye from the stairs till i turned the corner.
The cabins were spacious and had a little fan and a mirror with a ledge inside, which is super nice! The toilets and showers were clean and nice and the little wash area was super cute and had everything you could want. the kitchen has everything you need to cook for yourself but for 200/400/800¥ you can join dinner so i didnt cook.
Hands down the coziest guesthouse i have been, massive reccomendations!
Great location 2 minutes walk from the water. Great indoor and outdoor space for food and drinks. Also had local vendors items for sale inside the restaurant area. Comfy bed and plenty of space to put bags under the bed area. Usual amenities provided, also had towels to rent.
Would definitely recommend!
The host was welcoming and the entire guest house has a laid back atmosphere
Plenty of drinks and snacks available but no eating in the building , due to risk of ants - please have your food and drinks outside at the table area
Beautiful stars at Taketomi island at night if the skies are clear

DDanglars3517Bad things:
- This place is quite far away from city, 12mins driving distance to closest convenience shop
- You must own a car to go there and the driving way to there are nearly no street light, very dark
- The room quite small, it is nearly not possible to live for two people
- Some inserts appear at night but really so clean inside the room, you just have to close your room door asap whenever you open at night
Good things:
- All the things are super new and clean
- Quiet, and it is super comfortable to live in the forest with good facilities
- Cozy bed, strong water and electricity supply
Overall:
I think this is a good place to stay if you do not mind to drive in a dark night. And super recommend someone who wanna taste living in forest with urban city living style (can charge your phone, watch tablet and take a good shower)
HHello_tripOnly the best impressions from staying in a hostel. How to visit a Japanese house with good hosts. 💖 You need to follow the rules so that everyone is clean and comfortable: sort the garbage, do not enter the house in shoes, it's easy. In a separate fenced room there is air conditioning, a clothes hanger, a futon, a pillow and a light blanket, that's enough. There is a shared refrigerator, you can fry toast, shower and toilet separately for men and women. There is a good store next to the hostel, a place for snorkeling, you can buy coffee. From the airport you can get there by bus 7 or with a transfer first by bus 9, then bus 7. If I can, I will come again!❤️
