Overall the experience at this accommodation exceeded our expectations. It was slightly out of season (November) and we had the whole flat to ourselves during the night. The lady who took care of us was very attentive, we had a very good conversation, and the breakfast was hearty and delicious. The dining room is tastefully decorated, with tables made of antique sawing machines. The location was a walking distance from the main street (Kokusai dori).

I simply loved my stay at La Passione, and I would like to return, and explore more of Okinawa and enjoy Elly and Kunki's warm hospitality again. You can feel, that they both have a genuine interest in making you feel comfortable and relaxed. And the breakfast is simply faboulous! Kunki is a masterchef, he makes everything from scratch, and I got different delicious well composed arrangements every morning. Please, do yourself a favour and order breakfast - you will not regret it! La Passione is a very precious little gem, that Elly and Kunki deserve entirely.

Nothing

Wonderful little place 10 to 15 minutes walk to the monorail and bus terminal. There are 4 rooms in a traditional Okinawan house. The first floor has a kitchen and dining area, which is both charming and comfortable. The tables are made from antique sewing machines. The second floor has 2 rooms with western beds and the third has 2 Japanese style rooms. The hosts, Ellie and Kunki, are friendly and welcoming. Both are karate masters. The breakfasts were creative and delicious, many of the items created by Kunki. He also roasts his own coffee, which was superb. We stayed two nights and would have preferred more. The house is a bit tricky to find. If you're arriving after dark, it may be wise to get specific directions from Ellie beforehand.

Nothing. All good!

Both Elly and Kunki were some of the nicest people I've ever met. They helped me work through any problem I had during my trip and went above and beyond to make me feel at home. They often provided me with coffee and snacks in the afternoon when I would come home to rest and gave me many great reccomendations on how to best enjoy Naha. I really felt like they were my family, which was really important to me as a young solo traveller. The room was also spacious and clean, the balcony great for hanging bathing suits out to dry, and the rooftop perfect for enjoying a relaxing beer in the evening. It was so great I wish I could've stayed longer!!

I accidently somehow locked myself out of the room a couple times. Neither the owners nor I could figure out how it was happening but it was quickly resolved anyways. Make sure to always take your key with you just in case, even if you are just going to the bathroom or shower.

Elly and Kunki are wonderful, kind and friendly hosts who made me feel very much at home. They have renovated their house with great charm and style and I really enjoyed the western style room I stayed in, which was very comfortable and peaceful. I slept soundly and woke each morning to delicious breakfasts freshly cooked by Kunki, refreshing cold brew tea from Elly’s friend’s tea plantation in China,as well as super coffee. I felt thoroughly spoiled! Such lovely people and a super place to stay, I really recommend La Passione Boutique: thank you !

There was nothing I didn’t like; it is perfect.

Definitely one of the greatest place we’ve stayed in. Elly and Kunki were more than welcoming, the breakfasts were always amazing- each day, a different dish assorted to a complete storytelling about the origin and the right way to eat the meal. Bedroom and bathroom were clean. Sleeping on a futon was a wonderful experience! The design inside the house is stunning. Moreover, the location in central Naha allowed us to travel easily around the island since it was near bus stations. Thanks again to Elly and Kunki ! Léonard and Sonia <3

This place is just a miracle! It's the best place I've ever stayed. The staff is super-friendly, the place is clean and spacious (rooms, kitchen, living and dining rooms). It has a great roof-top place to spend time with friends. The rooms are very comfortable and quiet. It's located within a walking distance from Naha's most important places. There is a direct bus from the airport that stops just 5-10 minutes from the guesthouse.

Nothing to improve - just keep it like it is now.

A Lovely couple Ella and Kunki, operates this little guesthouse. They were not only gracious, welcoming and friendly but they took time to help us when my son left his wallet in a local bus. With their help we recovered the wallet very quickly, amazing! And as everyone mentions the breakfasts are really special and they vary each morning. It was the first time I got some good WW bread in Japan.

very clean, comfortable stay. great hosts too. good location within residential area and yet quite close to Kokusaburou street and many eateries around. right opposite the road is a big 7-11. we opted one breakfast home made by the hosts and it was good. we enjoyed it very much.

for those who drive, you will need to find the closest available public money operated parking. can be a challenge during day time but after work hours the parking space is easily available although there are only a few parking space.

The host was so kind and sweet. They gave us many tips on where we can visit and eat prior to our trip. The room was spacious and clean. The beds were so comfortable. It felt like home. The location is perfect as it is in the city center and walking distance to all of the tourist attractions in the city. We would definitely stay there again!!
