Hilton Okinawa Miyako Island Resort

“Location”
Hilton Okinawa Miyako Island Resort, located in the Twuriba district of Miyako Island, opened in 2023 as a foreign-owned luxury beach resort hotel with over 300 rooms.
KKS worked with the master architect, KAJIMA DESIGN, on the basic planning work for this project, and thereafter was involved as design supervisor.
The property features a total of 329 rooms, two restaurants, banquets, SPA treatments, indoor and outdoor pools, a rooftop bar, and a rooftop chapel.

“Concept”
While the main island of Okinawa and Ishigaki Island are being developed into resorts, Miyako Island still retains a local atmosphere, where time passes slowly then one can feel nature itself when visiting the island.
The main theme of the entire project was “MY FAVORITE PLACE,” which was developed based on the concept of creating a scene that would leave guests with memories of attractions they can only experience on Miyakojima.
The sunset view of the Irabu Bridge from the arrival scene on the second floor, the rooftop chapel on the rooftop, and the rooftop bar, the only one on Miyako Island, offer a view of the crystal clear ocean color (Miyako blue), considered the best in the East, leaving each scene at each place and time in the guests’ memories.
