Rosewood Hotels & Resorts approaches debut in Japan
Rosewood Hotels & Resorts is gearing up for its debut in Japan, with Rosewood Miyakojima set to open in March 2025.
The resort is nestled amidst sugarcane fields in the north of a remote island in Okinawa, overlooking Oura Bay. Designed by Dutch Studio Piet Boon, the hotel makes use of its surrounding terrain, with each of its 55 guestrooms offering views of pristine waters.
Embodying Rosewood’s A Sense of Place philosophy, architecture draws on the history, landscape and culture of the Ryukyu Islands, blending indigenous Okinawan materials such as Ryukyu limestone with the Japanese spirit of wabi-sabi.
The resort features four restaurants and bars spanning Japanese and international cuisine, including a poolside bar and an all-day Italian dining experience. The F&B offer draws on local culinary wisdom, with ingredients also sourced from a close network of providers.
Other public spaces include an infinity pool by the beach and an outpost of Asaya Spa – Rosewood’s signature wellbeing concept – complete with six treatment rooms, a yoga studio and fitness centre. A private pavilion overlooking the ocean meanwhile will house weddings and special occasions.
