Hilton Okinawa Sesoko Resort
Motobu|0.18km dal Sesoko Beach
If you're looking for amazing views and access to a secluded sandy beach this is likely a reasonable spot to choose, especially for you're paying with points.. Cash rates are a bit high. Walk 5 min in either direction on Sesoko beach. There won't be a human in sight as you swim or catch some sun. All in all we enjoyed our stay but would have picked another spot to get more out of our limited time in Okinawa. Pros: - newish hotel - amazing views - good point redemption rates for Hilton Honors members - spacious suites if you get a room upgrade - friendly staff - access to a beautiful white sandy beach with very few people around Cons: - impossibly difficult to access without a very expensive cab or a hard to get car rental - no activities or services you'd expect from a place with resort in the name. - limited food and drink options. - people tend to bring their kids who get loud and annoying given lack of activities to keep them busy. Things to keep in mind: - There is nothing nearby. You can't go anywhere without a car and car rentals were sold out far in advance of our trip. Don't plan to do any site seeing if you're staying here. You're coming for the pool and beach, not Okinawa. - Getting to the hotel from the airport is about 3.5 hours by bus for $12 USD or $180 USD by cab. The hotel does have an airport shuttle that costs about $20US per person but it only operates on a limited schedule that is unlikely to align with your flights or activity plans. You really need a car or cab. A shuttle across the bridge to Motubo should probably be included in your room rate, but it isn't and local cabs are hard to come by. It took hours for them to find us one. - The hotel staff are super nice but the hotel offers no activities or services. Don't expect sunscreen in the gift shop or water activity gear for check out or rent. You'll need to drive to the main island and into town for those. If you’re looking for a restaurant offsite you’ll have to find it on your own the concierge says he's not allowed to recommend restaurants, but that he can call and check on availability if you give him options. - Food and drink options are limited. Given no activities on site you'd think at least a cocktail by the pool would be an option, it is not. The only option for drinks is the lobby and you can’t bring those to the pool. Food is your typical boring overpriced Hilton fare, not the local Japanese or Okinawan food you'd want at a remote destination like this. It does the job, but if you have a car - go offsite to one of the restaurants in town. Verdict: great spot for a quiet and secluded stay but checkout spots on Naha or one of the further remote islands if you're looking for Okinawa experience.
