A new private villa has opened in northern Okinawa. COCO VILLA Okinawa Nakijin, part of the private sauna-equipped villa series "COCO VILLA," had its grand opening on June 12, 2026, in the Nakijin area of Okinawa Prefecture.
A Base for Nature, Sightseeing, and Relaxation
About an hour and a half by car from Naha Airport, this villa sits on a quiet hilltop in northern Okinawa that opens out toward the East China Sea.
A short drive takes guests to beaches perfect for swimming, with easy access to nearby sightseeing spots. The surrounding area also offers a variety of ocean activities such as snorkeling and other water sports.
Whether the day is spent out exploring or simply relaxing at the villa, the natural environment of northern Okinawa is there to be enjoyed at one's own pace.

Experiences the Villa Offers
A Private Pool with an Uninterrupted Ocean View
The villa is equipped with a private pool. Surrounded by water, guests look out to a sweeping view of the blue sea stretching to the horizon — a backdrop that makes every moment feel like a luxury.
A Sauna Experience Crafted by a Renowned Master
The villa features a private sauna fully supervised by the owner of "SAUNA Greenpia," which was ranked 7th in Japan in the 2021 Sauna Shiran awards.
Wrapped in the heat of a HARVIA-brand stove while gazing out at the sea through the window, guests can then move seamlessly to a cold-water bath or the pool. The cold-water bath is equipped with a chiller to maintain a comfortable temperature year-round, making for a deeply restorative sauna experience.
A View of the Sea and Sunset from the Hilltop
The view from this elevated location is unobstructed in every direction. In the morning, soft light plays across the water's surface; by midday, the sea glows a deep, vivid blue; and at dusk, the sky and sea turn shades of amber.
At the end of the day, guests can watch the sun sink below the horizon — a sunset panorama to experience all to themselves.
A Space Where Beauty and Comfort Coexist
The villa's interior has been fully coordinated by a designer, with refined aesthetics carried through to every corner. Every angle offers a picture-perfect scene, yet the space remains naturally comfortable and relaxed.
