Modern Ocean View Apartment in Yomitan Village
This spacious 3LDK apartment in Yomitan Village's Nagahama area offers a comfortable lifestyle with the added luxury of an ocean view from the balcony. The property is a 6-story reinforced concrete building with elevator access, built in 2008, and features a generous private floor area of approximately 85.9 square meters. The layout includes three Western-style rooms and a large combined living, dining, and kitchen area. Two parking spaces are provided free of charge.
The apartment is well-equipped for modern living. Key facilities include a counter kitchen with a gas cooktop (two or more burners, propane gas), separate bath and toilet, a vanity unit with hair washing sink, a bathtub, a gas-powered clothes dryer, an independent washbasin, air conditioning, closets, a shoe cupboard, and an indoor space for a washing machine. Building amenities include internet connectivity, an auto-lock security system, a monitor-equipped intercom, and an elevator.
This is a 2-year fixed-term rental contract. Viewings are possible and must be booked by phone. Applications can be submitted without a prior viewing. The management notes that photos and videos are for illustrative purposes and the condition of air conditioning units must be confirmed upon moving out. Due to high inquiry volume, applications may be declined. Applicants with complete documentation are prioritized, but multiple applications on the same day will undergo simultaneous screening.
Initial costs include a security deposit of one month's rent (150,000 JPY), a building maintenance fee of 1,000 JPY per month, and mandatory fire insurance at 7,000 JPY per year. The agency commission is equivalent to one month's rent plus parking fees (plus consumption tax). Key replacement costs approximately 25,000 JPY (excluding tax), subject to change based on the key type and number. If the guarantor resides outside Okinawa Prefecture, an additional security deposit may be required. Tenants must also undergo screening and join a rent guarantee company (Zenhoren Inc.), with an initial fee of 50% of one month's rent (20,000 JPY, discounted to 14,000 JPY, with annual renewal fees).
Pets are negotiable, subject to an additional pet security deposit (one month's rent for dogs, two months for cats). Larger breeds require consultation. The application process involves visiting the agent's office or downloading documents from the CUBE website. Required documents include a driver's license or other ID (copied front and back). For corporate applications, a company registry certificate (original, issued within the last 3 months) is needed, though a copy suffices at the application stage.
For inquiries, contact CUBE Goya Branch in Okinawa City. Note that viewings are not available on Wednesdays (phone inquiries only) and the office is closed on Sundays. The nearest bus stop is Senami Iriguchi, a 6-minute walk away.
The property is situated in the scenic Yomitan Village on Okinawa's west coast. The area is known for its beautiful beaches and rich Ryukyuan history. A notable nearby landmark is the historic Zakimi Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site, which offers panoramic views of the East China Sea and is a testament to the Ryukyu Kingdom's architectural prowess.
