Set to open in 2024, an all-villa resort on Mikayo Island in the Okinawan archipelago will mark Rosewood Hotels & Resorts’ first venture in Japan. Rosewood Miyakojima will occupy a secluded peninsula on the island, which is known for its white sand beaches and clear ocean waters that are ideal for snorkeling, diving and fishing. The resort’s 55 villas will each have private pools, gardens and sea views.

The resort’s 55 villa accommodations will feature private pools, landscaped gardens and unobstructed sea views. Conceived by Netherlands-based Studio Piet Boon, the architecture and interiors are seamlessly designed to immerse guests in the natural surroundings and express harmony with the island through the extensive use of local materials. Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei Inc. is providing local architectural expertise and support in realizing the design vision.

Four restaurants and bars will include relaxed beachfront concepts showcasing fresh seafood, prized island-raised beef, locally distilled spirits and craft beer. With a stunning seascape as a backdrop, the resort’s indoor and outdoor event venues will host unforgettable destination weddings and private celebrations.
