Questions about the venue

Can we customize the menu and catering approach?+

Yes. As a gastro hotel, Sara-no-ue-no-shizen works with couples to design menus and pricing structures rather than forcing standard all-inclusive packages. You'll work directly with their culinary team during planning.

How many guests can the venue accommodate?+

The venue flexibly hosts 20–150 guests depending on which spaces you book (indoor dining areas, terraces, or combined zones). Small ceremonies and large receptions are both feasible.

Is accommodation included for guests?+

The venue is a hotel, so rooms are available separately. Couples often negotiate group room rates for wedding parties. Ask about block pricing when finalizing your event date.

What is the nearest airport?+

Naha Airport (OKA) is approximately 60 minutes away by rental car or shared transfer. Most guests arrive via this gateway.

Can we host both ceremony and reception?+

Yes. The venue supports ceremonies on ocean-view terraces or indoors, with immediate transition to reception dining in their gastro restaurant spaces.
