2024/2/20-2/22 I stayed at the Nikko Alivila Hotel and Resort Hotel in Chubu Yomitan Village. I like it very much. The price/performance ratio is very high. The hotel’s official website has a detailed introduction to all restaurant features and activities.
# Price for a room with 2 adults and 1 child (5 years old): less than 1,100 yuan per night (including 2 large breakfasts)
# Room view: Directly facing the sea, you can also see the church (Picture 4-6)
# Facilities: They are all very good. The best thing is the background music in the room, which is super comfortable. There is unlimited bottled water (many Japanese hotels do not provide water). The only thing is that the beach is really trendy.
# Transportation: The Limusine bus from the airport is direct, but the bus is inconvenient. It takes 20 minutes to walk from the bus station. Taking a taxi is no problem.
# Nearby attractions: Gala Qinghai, Experience Kingdom, 1km away
# Shopping: There are supermarkets and specialty shops (snacks, coffee, brown sugar, etc.) in the hotel. You can buy everything from clothes to small items and glasses. They are very comprehensive and beautiful.
# Activity:
- It has its own large beach and a hill, and sand digging tools are available on the beach.
- The outdoor swimming pool is closed in winter, and the indoor swimming pool is available for a fee
- Various parent-child craft activities
- Marine activities include snorkeling at 9:30 in the morning, and in the afternoon there are more than a dozen types of marine bicycles, glass boats, banana boats, etc. No reservation is required, just confirm the time and go directly to the marine house on the beach near the church.
Snorkeling: 4,500 yen for hotel guests. The temperature on that day is 20-26. The snorkeling instructor will prepare wetsuits. It is very warm and there is no problem. One instructor will take ten people to snorkel for 1-2 meters. It is not recommended to go if you don’t know how to swim. Assemble and take a van to the sea and then go to the sea. Those who don't want to participate can't go together, so no one takes pictures during the whole process. My mother snorkeled for the first time and saw some fish. The instructor speaks Japanese + very simple English.
#Breakfast: There are three restaurants to choose from, Japanese food (Sawa), Japanese food + Western food (Hanahana), pure Western food (Verdemar). We had Sawa on the first day and Verdemar on the second day.
- Purely Japanese food at Sawa (Picture 13-15): I also had dinner at Sawa the day before. The side dishes were very similar. For breakfast, it was a simple set meal plus a Japanese buffet (not many varieties), and the taste was average. The most distinctive feature of breakfast is a chef coner with freshly shaved bonito flakes mixed with rice, which is delicious. There is also brown sugar produced locally in Okinawa, and you can taste brown sugar from various islands. The kid's set meal pictured is 14, and the price is 500 yen, which is paid directly in the store. The price is very cheap, and you can eat all you want at the buffet.
- Pure Western Food Verdemar (Picture 16-17): It is said to be pure Western food but also has Japanese food made with local ingredients. I prefer this restaurant. Children can eat all they want for 500 yen. Features include butter and jam made from local pineapple and red taro, oils made from various spices, many egg dishes, Benedict is also beautiful, freshly fried French toast + local brown sugar, freshly squeezed bitter melon apple, brown sugar pumpkin mousse Snow.
Hotels in similar areas have struggled with Renaissance
Advantages of Renaissance: It is more suitable for parents and children, there is a water park, more marine activities, many handicrafts, and contact with dolphins. The transportation is very convenient, the airport bus and public transportation are direct, and it is very close to Ryukyu Village.
Disadvantages: Children also account for the room fee. Living in Renaissance for two adults is a little more expensive than Alivila, about 1,300, but adding children will cost more than 2,000. Renaissance is suitable for a day of activities in the hotel. Save it for next time to spend a whole day in the hotel.
