Hello – we are heading to Okinawa for the first timefrom Tokyo around April 18th +/- a day or two for a week and heading to Seoul afterwards, so ideally non stop flights both ways. Reading this sub has us excited but a bit overwhelmed with the choices. We want a hotel with western beds that is on the beach, preferably in a quieter area but still with a couple bars/coffee shops/restaurants that are walkable. We will want to scuba diver 2-3 days (have advanced certs), golf 0-2 times (high handicappers who prefer more relaxed courses), and mostly just relaxing in a shaded cabana on the ocean.
We won’t have a car so the main island/naha seems less ideal reading posts here and will prefer to stay in one place vs island hop. Tokashiki doesn’t appear to have golf. Ishigaki seems to hit all the marks (flying out on Jin air) with an option like ANA InterContinental Ishigaki Resort but they only have a 10-hole course on site.
Thanks in advance for any hotel, dive shop, golf courses, and island recommendations.
