Okinawa is a famous tourist destination, surrounded by rich marine resources. The renowned Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium is a must-visit attraction and one of the largest aquariums in the world, where you can see a variety of beautiful and unique marine creatures. If you feel like experiencing the wonder of the underwater world without diving, the Hotel Gracery Naha, which opened in April 2016, is a great choice.

Located near the bustling Kokusai Dori, Hotel Gracery Naha incorporates many local Okinawan elements to create a distinctive accommodation style. The entrance uses projection technology to evoke the feeling of the ocean, while the most distinctive “Beautiful Sea Rooms” feature large screens on the walls displaying beautiful underwater scenes from Okinawa, offering a serene and comfortable experience as if surrounded by the sea.

The hotel’s dining options also have a strong Okinawan flavor, using plenty of locally sourced Okinawan ingredients to prepare authentic Okinawan cuisine. Although it has only been open for a short time, Hotel Gracery Naha has already become a highly talked-about hotel in Okinawa. Visitors planning a trip to Okinawa may want to add it to their list to enjoy this special oceanic experience.
