Coco Garden Resort Okinawa

Loved, loved, loved this small resort. In a peaceful residential area, the resort is tucked away from the main road and your accommodation is located in the middle of a little garden paradise. The rooms were very spacious with a little balcony to the rear with a table and chairs. Staff were super friendly and very helpful. Always there to assist and answer any questions I had. Am very grateful to staff who helped me to arrange several days trips, organising taxis and/or explaining the bus routes and connections. Sometimes using a mini translator to ensure that I understood everything correctly. I stayed 5 nights and due to that received Club Coco membership, which included breakfast and lunch. The resort also hosts free special events on a daily basis during the day and also some evenings. I managed to a enjoy a cocktail evening, Dim sum dinner and a cooking class. Breakfast was fantastic, such a large variety of both western and Japanese food to choose from, freshly cooked and topped up on a regular basis. At no time was anything empty. There is a free shuttle to Renaissance hotel in Onna which runs frequently throughout the day. From the resort you are under 15 mins walk away from San-A shopping centre and a 7-11 konbini. I rented the electric bike that the resort offers to guest for free and managed to explore the Okinawa caves (approx 10mins ride). Yes, you can get around by public bus but you need to plan it and plan it well. I often co-ordinated and combined hotel shuttle transfers with public buses and airport/resort liner coaches , which also shortened the journey time on trips to for example Churaumi aquarium and Shurijo castle. However, I would definitely hire a car next time. I wanted to see more of the island and felt limited relying on the buses/coaches etc. Staff at the resort really went out of their way to help and ensure that I had a wonderful time.

One of the coziest, most comfortable hotels I have ever stayed at. The «garden feeling» is great - and the food is excellent. The Coco benefits for long stays are really nice as well, and worthwile staying a bit longer for. The staff is amazing!

The property was amazing. It had a great view by the pool overlooking uruma, 2 turtles you can go visit, the restaurant was a Chinese inspired restaurant with amazing buffet and a la carts options. And the morning breakfast was one of the best I have seen. I was on a PCS move and decided to try on of my weeks here to check out Uruma area. There is a shuttle bus that lets you go to the Hilton renaissance and enjoy all the activities at that resort as if you were staying there if you get the coco club perk. I recommended you doing that because there is a lot to do at the renassaince.

Breakfast was rich and delicious. Rooms were big and spacious. I had an economy room, so can't complain about the view, but the room had nice access to the private small garden.

Very nice atmosphere and garden. Quiet and authentic. Not overrun by tourists
