They were beyond helpful with providing gluten free and dairy free/ allergy awareness with the menu and the cuisine. All of the food was fantastic and top notch. The staff was the sweetest we have ever encountered. I will definitely be back.

THE NEST NAHA
Lovely clean room, feels newly renovated. Hotel as a whole feels like it should be a higher rating. Rooftop pool area also very nice. Would recommend and return anytime. In a convenient location from the airport.

Terrace Resort Mihama
Great spot! After travelling all over Japan and basically staying in shoe boxes, the Terrace resort felt like home. Everything was clean, beds were soft and cozy, and large closet to hang your clothes. Having a washer/dryer and a kitchenette was super handy too. The value here was unmatched.
