Best Western Okinawa Kouki Beach opens

Best Western has expanded its portfolio of hotels in Japan with the opening of a beachfront property in Okinawa.

Set in a 10-storey building - painted white and positioned just meters from the shoreline - Best Western Okinawa Kouki Beach features a collection of light, bright rooms with balconies that offer views across Nago Bay, as far as Minna Island and the Motobu Peninsula.

During the day, a selection of water sports is available on Nago Bay, or alternatively guests can explore the many visitor attractions on this popular tourist island, such as Churaumi Aquarium, the remains of Nakijin Castle, Busena Marine Park or Nago Pineapple Park.

Guests have a choice of room categories, ranging from the 30m² Standard Rooms to the 60m² Deluxe Rooms, all of which come equipped with free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs with international satellite channels, ceiling fans and mini-bars.

The hotel is also ideal for families, with the larger rooms sleeping up to six guests and featuring private cooking facilities.

“Okinawa has always been a tourism hotspot for Japanese travelers, and an increasing number of international visitors are now starting to discover this idyllic topical island,” said Olivier Berrivin, Best Western Hotels & Resorts’ Managing Director of International Operations - Asia. “With multiple international flights now landing in Okinawa, including new direct charter services rom Singapore, this tropical paradise is more accessible than ever before.”

In Okinawa Prefecture alone, Best Western now operates three hotels - Best Western Okinawa Onna Beach, Best Western Naha Inn and Best Western Okinawa Kouki Beach - and this latest opening takes the company’s Japanese collection to 14 unique hotels and resorts all across the country, stretching from the snow-capped peaks of Hokkaido in the north to the tropical beaches of Okinawa in the south.
