It takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes from Naha Airport by car and boat. The resort is located on Ie Island, which is a bit difficult to reach because it is not connected by a bridge. That being said, it is not crowded, so you can enjoy the spectacular view and a comfortable stay.
Point 1: Is Wai Wai Club Yie Resort a resort near and far?
Typical resort islands in northern Okinawa, such as Kouri Island, Yagaji Island, and Sesoko Island, are connected to the main island of Okinawa by a bridge. Therefore, in most cases, it takes only one and a half hours from Naha Airport to reach these islands, but Iejima, where Wai Wai Club Ie Resort is located, is not connected to the main island of Okinawa by a bridge.
However, Ie Island, where Wai Wai Club Ie Resort is located, is not connected to Naha Airport by a bridge, so it takes about an hour by boat from Motobu Port, making it a surprisingly distant resort. From Naha Airport, it takes about two and a half hours.
Therefore, it is a “paradise resort” because there are not as many tourists as on Kouri Island or Sesoko Island, which are also remote islands near the main island. Therefore, it is a perfect resort for couples who want to avoid crowded places. After all, the sea is the most beautiful in the world!
Point 2: Wai Wai Club Ye Resort, a real resort used by VIPs
Wai Wai Club Ie Resort is a full-fledged resort that is used by corporate VIPs and even U.S. military officers. Of course, it is not as luxurious as the first-class hotels on the main island of Okinawa, but it is divided into a hotel building and a cottage building, and all rooms have ocean views and are spacious, ranging from 27 to 70 square meters.
The rooms are not decorated in a strange tropical style but have a bright atmosphere like a resort hotel in a tourist resort.
We especially recommend the “Private Cottage,” which feels like a detached house. They are two-story buildings with beds and sofas, as well as a washing machine, dryer, kitchen, microwave oven, and other household goods, and outside there is a large terrace where you can have BBQ.
Hotel buildings and cottages are scattered throughout the fairly large property, which also has a swimming pool, jacuzzi, family bath, and a marine house that serves as a reception desk for activities and other amenities, so you can spend a comfortable stay without leaving the property.
Since it is an island, you can experience a true “paradise resort” with 360-degree ocean views.
Point 3: Wai Wai Club Ye Resort has a lot of activities!
