Twin-Line Hotel Yanbaru Okinawa Japan

I booked the newer side of the hotel and thought it was one of the best places I’ve stayed. The interior is lovely, with wooden accents throughout, and the room was clean and spacious. I really liked having the toilet in its own little room, and the hot tub was amazing. I’d definitely come back.

The hotel is across the road from the beach and was very relaxing. Staff were friendly and efficient, the place was clean, and breakfast was excellent. I especially liked the drip coffee that you grind yourself. There’s plenty of free parking, and the laundry room has lots of washing machines and stays open 24 hours. It’s right next to the beer room. On the 11th floor, the lounge has darts, pools, and free drinks, including Orion beer on tap.

The two things I’d improve are the lifts and the sound insulation. One lift isn’t enough for an 11-storey building, so the wait can be long. At night, traffic noise comes through the balcony doors, and the insulation needs work. Apart from that, it’s good value for money. Rooms are huge, well equipped, and well maintained, with comfortable beds, good Wi-Fi, and a big bathtub. Bath salts are available in the lobby. Staff are friendly and speak decent English, and breakfast has a decent range and quality. The hotel is right by the beach. I’d say rooms in the main tower all have sea views, though Best Western Yanbaru partly blocks them. Family Mart is directly across from the hotel, and several restaurants are within walking distance. In the evening, the lounges on L1 and L11 offer activities like darts and billiards, and, most importantly, free-flowing liquor.

There are a few really good restaurants nearby. If you’re planning to visit different beaches or go diving or snorkeling at the famous Blue Cave, this hotel is worth considering.
