We're relaxed already were in the pool, kind of were on chairs while we're in the pool. So in this video we're going to be exploring some of the more budget hotels that you can find around Okinawa but they're actually really, really good for the price. So we're going to show you what you can get for the dollars that you spend and we're in a pretty cheap hotel right now and there's a rooftop pool. It's so nice. Look at that relaxing state. She's a relaxed babe. And Jordan's relaxing here. That spot over there you can kind of see over the edge. It's a bit of an infinity pool. So great for photos. Also guys, we're just kind of vlogging it. This is like a very casual TC cell video. So get excited because we go in cash, baby cash. So as you guys can see there's a lot of clouds and they're looking beautiful right now. But Okinawa is known for its like crazy weather like rain. It's sunny. It's a hot mess really. I arrived today by playing and it was fine and then I got out and it was like the heaviest rain I've ever seen. It was so aggressive and then I got out and it was like, yeah, it was fine. So it'll just be a roller coaster ride of weather while we're here. How about we go get a drink by the bar by the bar. I'm down, let's go get some brewskies, it's time for a bevy, they have banana pecanha. Have you ever had a banana? But I have never had a banana pecanha. You're so good at saying it. What else do they have? What are you feeling? I feel great. Pena colada because it's, it's summery. I think I'm going to get a margarita because it's a classic, you can't go wrong with it, margarita, pina colada banana because we have come to the sky bar. This hotel has a beautiful bar at the top just underneath the pool and we're going to get some drinks and hang out the viewers lovely. I'm not saying the view is Jordan's but the view is lovely. They also have a few little snacks as well and after this we're going to show you guys the rooms but also this place doesn't just have one pool on top, there's also a pool on the first floor and they also have an incentive. I believe the answer is free. You get a ticket you can use to go in. So every day you stay at the sunset hotel, you get this like yellow coupon and you can go in as many times as you want once you show the yellow coupon, you're good to go. And even if you don't stay here, you can pay 2000 yen to go and use the onset and pool downstairs. If even if you're not here, just go check it out. Okay, so we got our drinks, you know we have the usual, the margarita, we get the bloomer and then mind in a whole pineapple. I got a peanut colada and a pineapple. Alright should we come? Pineapple, pineapple. Oh my God they're so young. I only had one peanut colada before this and it was terrible. So this is how it should be. This is awesome. My margarita is also excellent. How's your love? It's so refreshing wings. Let's eat, let's eat after you finish eating and drinking. Well show you guys the rooms. Okay let's check out the rooms and of course we have a 613 which is Emma's room. Let me in. Hello Emma, welcome. This is the room. Very nice. Is this? That's where I keep my sarah and I make such a sarah here by the way. So this place is cheap so the room is pretty simple but it's got everything I need. It's got a nice big bed, it's got a nice big window and it's got a nice big me air con. There's like a little thing over here with some tea and some coffee, some drinks and a little free age if I need it. And apparently you can get a massage here. That's quite nice. But yeah it's pretty basic but it's pretty nice. It's all I need. I don't need anything fancy going under the roof especially when I'm doing this on a budget, let me show you the bathroom. Hey, it's actually kind of a nice bathroom. I mean it's just a unit and everything, but I've been to these like unit bathrooms before in hope and sometimes they can be pretty terrible. And this is nice clean. We got some color variation. We got the soaps and shampoos, toilet, which is a very nice. It's great. I love it. Hello. We made it to our next hotel, guest house cabin. What do you call this cabin? A cabin. We made it to our cabin. So we actually just took a ferry from Naha in Okinawa to Toku shiki. Yeah, it's part of the carom, a chain of islands. So it's so beautiful. It's famous for its crystal blue water. The water here is so beautiful. We haven't been to the beach yet, but we did drive well. We got driven here actually, but on the way here we saw some water but getting driven here was really cool. It was the guy who owns this place. He will come and pick you up if you come and stay at this place, he'll pick you up from the ports and take you around wherever you want to go and you just give him a call. You're like, hey, I want to go to the supermarket here in 15 minutes and he's like, yeah, I got you and he's got us, well we're kind of locked in. I don't know about that. Yeah, there's this fence all around which kind of looks like we're being protected from a zombie apocalypse, but actually it's to protect us from snakes. So I guess there's a lot of snakes on this island. Or maybe just this area. Yeah, let's give you guys a tour of our wonderful cabin. All right. Let's go back in time to take shoes off. This is our main living space. Welcome. We got a little table. We got a little bit of a Tommy style matt and it's connected to the kitchen right over here is where they're keeping the foot on. So when we want to sleep, we just got to take them out, put them on the ground and we can have a little snooze. So it's like an older style place. But basically you can take the place of any way you want because yeah, I guess we can move the table, sleep in a bunk beds here as well. We have the kitchen right over here. We get given a fridge and a freezer, a microwave, a toaster oven so we can have island toast. And we also get a little little burner burner also. We're gonna have a barbecue tonight. The guy will help us prepare the barbecue. So we're gonna go to the supermarket, get some supplies and have like an island B. B. Q. With some local Okinawan food. Yeah, it's a pretty basic, very basic normal bathroom, but hey, at least we got a bathroom even though it's so hot outside. It's really nice and cool. He kept the air con on for us. Yeah, I guess this is where we find people working hard here. It's nice to get a little bit of light and I guess this is a nice way to separate sleeping places if you want to sleep away from other people who are stinky. Okay, there's one last little place I want to show you guys. Hopefully don't fall down these steep stairs and out we're gonna be having a little barbecue tonight and enjoying some nice hot right now. Yeah, hopefully it cools down and then hopefully we can see some stars tonight. Yeah, we were told the stars are amazing and the sunset for this place. Obviously it's a bit more expensive than the last place, but because, well it's cheaper because there's four of us sharing it. So the price is split, but it's super nice. Very much away from civilization. Beautiful cabinets from sort of the hustle bustle of the city. It's kind of a place to go. Very nice, very peaceful and also a nighttime pitch black. So you know, so one other thing when I was searching for this place, there's not a lot of options on the island itself, Like a lot of people do day trips. So it's a great option that's like reasonable affordable because like a lot of the other ones were like, whoa, crazy. Well, good, fine. Thanks for finally Sarah, no worries. Let's enjoy our time and we'll maybe see you guys at nighttime, but we'll see you at the next location. Yeah. Hello! Welcome to the final hotel. We're staying in in Okinawa, Come on in. Let's start at the very entrance to the, to the room. So if you turn over here we have a beautiful sink. Now, I'm telling you, I actually am in love with this hotel. The sink is so classy, beautiful. I love this sink because it's just like a nice stone. It's very minimal. I feel like this hotel is very minimal and very like aesthetically pleasing. I love it a lot. But come on in a little bit closer, we'll go into door, come on in. This is the shower and the toilet, very classy, very nice. We have a lovely today right here and this shower, I just showered in it and there's a little rain, the shower at the top, which is super lovely. The soaps smell amazing and it's just very clean and smells. It just smells nice. I really love it. I'm a big fan of this place so far. I'm feeling clean and refreshed. You. Come on in a little bit further. We have the room now, Sure, it's not the biggest room in the universe, but it's got everything you need and it's just very fresh and nice and you get a lovely view, wow, The sun's going down so lovely. I don't introduce this place. This is hotel strata strata strata and it's really close to cox. I dati. So it's a really good location close to the station as well. And they have so much stuff here. They have a beautiful pool outside. There's a rooftop bar, there's a cafe for breakfast and throughout the day and it's great.
