Yukurunya

We left with lovely memories and would definitely stay again if we come back to Okinawa. The house was cozy and just the right size for our family of 2 adults and 2 kids. The children slept on futons upstairs, and the toys kept them busy. The kitchen is small but has what you need. We didn’t cook, since we enjoyed the BBQ set instead. The bathroom had the usual amenities you’d expect in a good Japanese hotel or ryokan, so you can arrive empty-handed. There was even a simple first aid drawer. Wako welcomed us warmly and explained how everything worked. She speaks English, was patient with the kids, and lovely to talk with. The wood house smells wonderful as soon as you walk in, and the design and construction are beautifully done, down to the little details. The inflatable pool was ready before we arrived, and the kids jumped straight in. The bonfire is a must, and the clouds cleared now and then for stargazing. We visited in June, so there were mosquitoes and insects outside, and some bugs or crawlies made it indoors too. Still, it was a very good retreat.

We had a pleasant stay even though there was a tsunami warning that day. The host was so nice and could communicate in English. After dinner, we set off fireworks on the deck, and the washer and dryer were a real highlight since they meant less luggage for us. Breakfast was made with care. It filled us up and gave our stay a memorable finish. The log house is the most amazing one we’ve stayed in. The host provided all the amenities, so all we needed to bring was clothes. If you’ve been zip lining or taken a buggy ride at the coffee farm, don’t miss staying here. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice stay in Okinawa.

The bonfire with the family was one of our favorite memories. We roasted marshmallows even though it was raining a little. Coffee lovers should try grinding the beans by hand and making pour-over in the well-equipped kitchen. It was a fun experience, and the coffee was excellent. Wako-san’s hospitality made a huge difference. She was friendly, kind, and meticulous, and even prepared special items and food for our kids. Her breakfasts were outstanding, and we looked forward to them every morning. The loghouse was spotless, fully equipped, and full of thoughtful touches. From the timber smell to the warm atmosphere, it had a real charm as soon as we arrived. We’ll miss Wako-san and her incredible loghouse. This was a truly memorable stay, and we’re grateful for everything she did to make it special. We hope we can return someday.

The breakfast was a real highlight, carefully put together and truly on par with what I’d expect at a 5-star hotel. The host was exceptionally kind and made sure I had everything I needed. The cabin’s beautiful surroundings and soothing wood smell gave me a sense of calm and connection with nature from the moment I arrived. It felt like a chance to reconnect with nature and myself. My stay was impeccable and unforgettable. I highly recommend this place to anyone wanting a peaceful, rejuvenating retreat.
