Ocean Retreat

Where Three Islands Meet
the Setting Sun

An Ocean View Retreat in Motobu, Okinawa

Perched on a hill in Motobu Town, northern Okinawa. Step onto the balcony and a panoramic view unfolds — Sesoko Island to the left, Minna Island straight ahead, and Ie Island to the right.

Once home to the owner's uncle, this house has been thoughtfully renovated. The large living room windows frame the ocean and islands at every hour.

At dusk, the sunset from the balcony moves like slow motion. The color of the sea changes through every hour of the day — you'll never tire of the view.

A house by the sea, a view that stays with you forever.

The Sun Setting into the Horizon

Every Evening, from Your Balcony

The sea changes color with every passing minute, and the sun sinks slowly into the horizon. Guests describe it as watching slow motion. Ferry boats cross between the islands, their silhouettes lit by the glow — a sunset that only Motobu can offer.

The view from the balcony was breathtaking. The shifting shades of the sea, the island ferries — it felt dreamlike. The sunset was like slow motion. I'll definitely come back.
