  • The building itself ...

    The building itself is simple and has a warm wooden feel, and the view was just as wonderful as I imagined.As a personal request, the amenities were great and organic, but the loungewear was 100% polyester, so I would have been happier with 100% cotton or 100% linen.For breakfast, I chose the traditional Okinawan rice porridge since it was a special opportunity. The seasoning felt a bit mild for my taste, but it was healthy. It wasn’t particularly flashy, but I enjoyed seasonal Okinawan ingredients.

  • It was a wonderful stay.

    Thanks to the warm smiles and hospitality of the staff, we were able to relax from the moment we arrived. We were impressed by how efficiently our meals were prepared. It was far, far better than in-room dining at a Hotel. The shabu-shabu and the morning sandwiches were outstanding. In a wonderful Room with views of Okinawa’s nature and the sea, our family was able to spend an amazing time together. Soaking in the bath at a leisurely pace while taking in the ocean, greenery, and birdsong left a lasting impression on us.We had been told there might be insects, but perhaps due to the strong wind and temperatures, we hardly saw any during our stay. If we have another chance, we would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

Introduction of the Accommodation

Exterior

YAWN YARD is a "garden where you can stay overnight"

We have transformed new ways of relaxation, rooted in dialogue with the terrain and local people, into a "garden." What is a living space that blends naturally? What if we turn lifestyle aesthetics into a single chair? What if we cook using only ingredients visible from the garden? We don't force change. We don't embellish. With richness that looks far ahead, we shape those answers. Nice to meet you. Welcome to Akubi no Niwa (Akubi no Niwa).
