Blue Ocean Hotel & Resort Miyakojima

White-walled villa suites with rooftop terraces, private pools, and jacuzzis sit at the edge of Irabu Island, right across the bridge from the main airport. This resort's on-site restaurant sources Miyako wagyu and local reef fish, framing them against the hyper-blue water that locals take as a point of personal pride. Hotel suites look out over the Irabu Bridge; ground-floor terrace rooms face the greenery instead. The Michelin Guide has it among its Selected Hotels.
