A "tent sauna," said to be the "hottest in the world," and a high-performance "barrel sauna," which was introduced for the first time in the prefecture in 2022, will be installed in the Garden Pool for a limited time from Tuesday, October 1, 2024 to Wednesday, April 30, 2025. The hotel's Garden Pool has also been the venue for the SAUNA TOTONOI Village Festival, Okinawa Prefecture's largest sauna event, twice in the past, and is a popular spot where you can enjoy a sauna in an open space with a panoramic view of the East China Sea.

This year, we have installed one barrel sauna made by the brand "ONE SAUNA" that uses 100% domestic natural wood and spreads a pleasant woody scent, one tent sauna made by "MORZH", which is said to be the hottest in the world and is a hot topic among sauna enthusiasts who like hot steam baths, and we have also added a new service, Aufguss, where you can experience a heat wave in the tent sauna. Cool down your body that has become heated up from the sauna and heat wave in the open-air pool, and enjoy the experience of relaxing by the pool in a great location. We also offer a plan to rent the barrel sauna exclusively, so you can use it alone or with friends in a private space.

The hotel restaurant "Buffet & Grill QWACHI" offers "Totonoi Gohan" (a meal that can only be enjoyed in Okinawa) under the theme of "Eat Okinawa." Please enjoy this as well.

MORZH Tent Sauna

It is currently said to be the "hottest" sauna in the world, and is highly praised by sauna enthusiasts who simply love hot steam baths. The high-density curtain has insulation inside, which keeps out the cold air from the outside.

If you pour aromatic water onto the sauna stones in the wood stove installed in the heat tent, you will feel a temperature of over 100 degrees Celsius. Please take the sauna seriously and experience the heat.

～Taking the sauna seriously～

MORZH is a Russian word meaning "walrus." It is said that this name was given because in Russia, people who enjoy swimming in the sauna in the middle of winter are called walruses. The special structure of the tent curtains and the high-performance wood stove specialized for heating the sauna are made with the belief that it should be "just as hot as possible" so that you can enjoy it even in the harsh Russian winter, with functionality that quickly heats up to 120°C. Please take the sauna seriously and experience the heat for yourself.

Barrel Sauna made by ONE SAUNA

The saunas are made from 100% domestic wood and are individually handcrafted without the use of nails. The round barrel shape is ideal for maintaining a constant sauna temperature, maximizing the sauna's effects. The natural warmth, texture, and pleasant scent of the wood itself have a relaxing effect, allowing you to enjoy a comfortable sauna time. The large circular windows offer a panoramic view of the lush greenery of the surrounding area.

~Enjoy communication~ "All people are born equal, but there is no place more equal than the sauna." This is an old saying that has been passed down in the birthplace of Finnish saunas. ONE SAUNA designs a community where everyone can be equal, where the distance between mind and body can be as close to zero as possible through saunas.

A Garden Pool with a sauna, a cold bath, and an outdoor bath

Overlooking the East China Sea and surrounded by lush greenery, this is one of the prefecture's largest garden pools. A sauna is installed in the center of the pool, allowing you to use both the sauna and the Garden Pool. Depending on the season, some areas become heated pools, allowing you to enjoy the pool in any season. At night, the space transforms into a fantastical space, with colorful lights illuminating the pool and plants.
