In July 2025 we traveled to Okinawa as eight people across three generations: both sets of grandparents (my side and my wife’s), my wife and I, and our two elementary-school children. For the first three nights we stayed at Hotel AlaCOOJU Okinawa in Urasoe, and for the last two at Hyatt Regency Naha, Okinawa.
This article covers our two nights at the Hyatt: the rooms, breakfast, the pool, parking, and borrowing a wheelchair for the children’s grandmother.
For Hyatt Regency Naha, with the setup we stayed in (three generations, 8 people, three twin rooms, with breakfast), the only bookings we could make were on Expedia for Dec 8 and Dec 11. For Dec 24, Dec 29 and Jan 2, Expedia was also fully booked. (Prices checked in October 2026) Jump to the booking site price comparison (table)
Hyatt Regency Naha review: two nights with three generations, eight people
The grandparents liked it too. It suits three-generation families who stay in Naha and go sightseeing by car.
| What we liked | What to know |
|---|---|
| We could borrow swimsuits, floats and towels at the pool for free. The grandparents went in the pool too | The hotel parking is first come, first served, and it was full when we arrived. The driver had to walk to and from a nearby coin parking lot every time |
| The breakfast buffet had more than we could try in two days | The toilet and bathtub are in the same space. Slightly inconvenient when bathing with kids or for the grandparents |
| The grandmother borrowed a wheelchair, and we were allowed to take it as far as Kokusai-dori | No large communal bath (there is a jet bath) |
| Close to Kokusai-dori. Walkable from Makishi Station on the monorail | — |

Hyatt Regency Naha rooms: city-view twin, 28 m²
The four of us stayed in a city-view twin (two semi-double beds, 28 m²). Our elementary-school children shared beds with us at no extra charge. The room is compact, but the interior felt high quality.
What bothered us was that the toilet and bathtub are in the same space. It was a little inconvenient when bathing with the children and for the grandparents.
On the 18th floor there is a lounge (7:00–21:00) only for guests staying on the club floor. Our rooms were not on the club floor, so we did not use it.
Up to what age can children share a bed for free at Hyatt Regency Naha? Our two elementary-school kids stayed free
We could not confirm on the official website up to what age children can share a bed for free (October 11, 2026).
We booked the hotel only on Agoda, and my wife and I stayed with our two elementary-school children in a city-view twin (two semi-double beds). The two children shared beds with us, and there was no charge for them.
We have not checked whether the treatment of children differs between booking sites. When you book, enter the number and ages of your children on the booking screen and check whether the total price changes.
Hyatt Regency Naha breakfast: JPY 2,860 buffet for adults
Breakfast is the buffet on the 2nd floor (sakurazaka). The prices and hours posted in the hotel were as follows (July 2025).
| Adults | JPY 2,860 (See Hyatt Regency Naha prices on Agoda) |
| Children (6–12) | JPY 1,430 |
| Children (4–5) | Free, up to one per adult |
| 3 and under | Free |
| Hours | 7:00–10:00 (the notice said it may be crowded from 8:30 to 9:30) |
As of October 2026, the hotel’s official website lists breakfast at JPY 3,300 for adults and JPY 1,650 for children aged 6 to 12. The table above shows the prices posted in the hotel when we stayed in July 2025.
Along with smoked salmon, prosciutto and cheese, there were eggs Benedict and French toast. Egg dishes are cooked to order at a live station. Our favorite was the smoothies — three kinds, changing daily.
There was so much that we could not try everything in two days.
Hyatt Regency Naha pool: free swimsuits and floats to borrow
At the pool we could borrow swimsuits, goggles, floats and towels for free. You can go empty-handed, and there is no need to wash swimsuits afterwards. On check-out day we still played in the pool until the end.
What we remember most is that the grandparents, who usually never go in a pool, said “Well then, let’s go in.” At the time the grandmother had bad knees and found walking hard. But in the pool she could walk without pain and had a lovely time with her grandchildren.
| Outdoor pool | 9:00–20:00 (last entry 19:00). Closed December to February |
| Jet bath and fitness | 7:00–20:00 (last entry 19:00). The jet bath is open all year |
| Large communal bath | None |
From the hotel’s posted information during our stay in July 2025. The facilities on the 3rd floor are for hotel guests only.
The pool is closed from December to February. Check prices and availability for your dates on the booking site

Hyatt Regency Naha parking: full, so we used a nearby lot at JPY 1,100 for 24 hours
If you are driving a rental car, this is the one thing to watch. There is a multi-level car park in front of the hotel (JPY 1,500 per night for guests), but it is first come, first served, and it was full when we arrived. The hotel’s information (updated May 2026) also says that when it is full, or for large vehicles, guests are directed to nearby coin parking. At check-in we were given a map and price list of ten coin parking lots nearby. We parked at one that charged JPY 1,100 for 24 hours.
When we arrived, everyone got out at the drop-off area and I went alone to park the car. When going out, everyone waited in the lobby while I fetched the car, and they got in at the drop-off area. The driver walks there and back every time.
At Hotel AlaCOOJU Okinawa, where we stayed first, we could park at the hotel (JPY 1,500 per night). We compare the two hotels here:

Borrowing a wheelchair at Hyatt Regency Naha — even for Kokusai-dori
For the grandmother, we asked at the front desk and borrowed a wheelchair from the lobby. What we really appreciated was being allowed to use it outside the hotel. We took it to Kokusai-dori, to an izakaya in the evening, and to Okinawa World the next day.
The grandmother can walk. But with a wheelchair she could save her energy. It was also heartwarming to see the grandchildren enjoying pushing it.
This is how they handled it during our stay in July 2025. Check with the hotel before booking whether you can take a wheelchair outside.
Hyatt Regency Naha location: close to Kokusai-dori and Makishi Station
It is in central Naha, near Kokusai-dori, and walkable from Makishi Station on the monorail. Check-out was at 11:00.
On the day we moved to the Hyatt, we stopped at Sefa-utaki in southern Okinawa and Tamaya Soba (main shop) before checking in, and went to an izakaya (Okinawa Izakaya Sun) in the evening. The next day was Okinawa World. Our day-by-day itinerary is in our travel log.

Where to book Hyatt Regency Naha? Prices compared by season (with breakfast)
Using the same setup as our stay (three twin rooms with breakfast, 8 people across three generations, 2 nights), we checked three December dates (October 5, 2026). With this room setup, the only site we could book was Expedia. When we checked again on October 9, 2026, for dates from December to March on seven booking sites, Expedia was also fully booked for Dec 24, Dec 29 and Jan 2. For Mar 24, Trip.com showed a price with a different room combination (two twin rooms + a deluxe twin).
| Booking site | Dec 8– 2 weekday nights | Dec 11– 2 weekend nights | Dec 24– 2 nights, winter break | Dec 29– 2 nights over New Year | Jan 2– 2 nights, late winter break | Mar 24– 2 nights, spring break | Mar 27– 2 weekend nights, spring break |

*1 The cheapest room for this group size (room names as shown on the site)
— means we did not check that date. On Expedia, the breakfast option for a family-of-four room costs the same as for a room of 2 adults, so the children’s breakfast is not included. The hotel’s current children’s breakfast price is JPY 1,650 for ages 6 to 12 (the hotel’s policy shown on Expedia, as of October 2026), so 2 children × 2 mornings comes to JPY 6,600. The JPY 1,430 in the breakfast table above is from the hotel’s notice in July 2025. For Agoda, check today’s prices with the button.
