Entire villa, yours alone — family time with no strangers
A private villa with no shared spaces. Up to 8 guests — grandparents, parents, and children, three generations under one roof — using the living space and private room at their own pace. Baby cries at night or early risers in the morning — no need to worry about others.
Full kitchen — baby food, allergy diets, no problem
A fully equipped kitchen with all the tools you need. Make baby food, cater to food allergies, or cook Okinawan dishes with ingredients from the local supermarket. Things that are difficult in hotels are easy here.

Free parking available. A 1-hour-50-minute drive from Naha Airport by rental car. Large suitcases, strollers — bring everything you need.
Staying with Okinawa's nature
pono 118 is on Yagaji Island. Surrounding it is untouched nature — mangroves, tropical plants, sea breezes. You'll hear insects, and at night geckos cling to the windows.
This isn't unpleasant — it's proof that you're truly staying in Okinawa's nature. pono doesn't offer "comfort separated from nature." It's a place where children can experience the real Okinawa.
For guests sensitive to insects: We provide insect spray and other measures. To minimize indoor encounters, please store all food in the refrigerator.
