The Uza Terrace Beach Club Villas

This property is outstanding in terms of accommodation standard, facilities and food on offer. Some people say it is a little remote but for us this was one of its main attractions. Well away from the hustle and bustle of Naha yet close enough if you really wanted to make a day trip there or eat out in the evening. We didn’t! The hotel very kindly provided a great free pickup service to and from Naha airport which was much appreciated. From the moment we arrived we were treated as valued customers by the wonderful staff. We stayed in one of the villas for two people with its own pool and separate sleeping quarters and lounge/kitchenette. It was huge and had everything you could possibly need. We enjoyed swimming in our own pool as well as in the beautiful outdoor pool in the grounds. I also went to Uza beach just outside the property to paddle in the clear lagoon at low tide. Just make sure you wear flip flops or water shoes to protect your feet from the sharp coral and other rocks. It is a great place to observe marine life. I also enjoyed two complimentary exercise sessions in the early morning- SUP yoga in the swimming pool and stretch and relaxation. This was despite that instructions were mainly in Japanese. The hotel is very convenient to enjoy walks to the nearby lighthouse and park area on the headland but go early as it becomes very hot later in the day. We mostly ate in the fine dining restaurant where the chef and his team provided the most exquisitely presented and tasty food - a cross between French/Italian and Okinawan. On two occasions we sampled the in-room dining, which was like being served in the restaurant. We loved that so much of the food was locally sourced, including from their own organic farm just beside the hotel. We particularly enjoyed some of their seafood dishes in the evening such as the daily catch dish acqua pazza style but beware it is enormous. Their squid ink pasta and tiramisu okinawan style were also wonderful. Breakfasts provided a great spread and plenty of choice especially of fruit and Japanese dishes. Breads tended to be white and French style but if you get a chance sample the purple potato bread rolls and purple potato margarine - in fact anything made from the famous okinawan purple potatoes!! Although the accommodation is pricey, the food even in the fine dining restaurant, is very reasonably priced. Given the size of portions we often only chose to eat one course. This was because of the complimentary drinks and snacks on offer in the sunset lounge every evening which we took great pleasure in enjoying. We stayed 6 nights and by the time we left we felt we had acquired a new family. All staff were so welcoming, courteous and helpful- from the General Manager who spoke to us on a regular basis, to the cleaning staff. Particular mention must be made of Ashimine in Reception who welcomed us to the hotel and was very helpful on a number of occasions, not least, sorting out the timing of the cleaning of the room. In the restaurant Hiragana the restaurant manager could not do enough for us ensuring we always got the seat we wanted both at breakfast and in the evening. He explained the dishes to us and welcomed us every time as did the other staff such as Mazuda with real pleasure and bows. We also were privileged to meet the chef and his team who made a special point of coming out from the kitchen to show their appreciation of our custom. The girls in the Sunset lounge also did a great job. We were so sad to have to say goodbye to all the staff when we left. The fact that so many of them gathered to say goodbye and wave us off was testimony to the personal service they gave us. We cannot recommend this Relais and Chateau hotel enough and would love to return.

最高の施設とホスピタリティを感じさせる那覇から１時間くらいのところにある全室プライベートプール付きのホテルです。自分の時間を大切にする人にはそして喧騒から自分を抜け出したい人にはここ以上の場所はないでしょう。ただし、人間の五感はどれが欠けても問題です。ここはこれから味覚を刺激していくようなチームを加えることで日本最高の施設となっていくことと思います。 It is indeed the best facility and hospitality provided for us. If you need relax, if you need your important time, if you need forgetting everything from what you are facing now and if you want to be somebody different from you, it is one fo the best satisfying your dream. However, all people need five senses but this hotel should improve only sense of taste rather than any other senses.
