Rikka Rikka Yu in Naha – A Relaxing Natural Hot Spring & Sauna in the Heart of the City♨️
Right in the center of Naha City, just a few minutes’ walk from Kokusai Street, you’ll find Rikka Rikka Yu — a natural hot spring spa loved by both locals and travelers. Open from 6 AM to 11 PM, it’s the perfect place to unwind during your Okinawa trip.
It’s amazing to find a full-scale onsen in the middle of the city! Whether you want to relax after a long flight or refresh yourself before heading to the airport, this spot offers convenience and relaxation in one place.
◆ Natural Hot Springs & Multiple Saunas
The hot spring water here is a sodium chloride thermal spring, known to help relieve muscle pain, joint stiffness, and fatigue. The water gently warms your body from the inside out.
There are both indoor and outdoor baths, jet baths, and a cold plunge pool. You can also enjoy three types of saunas — dry, salt, and steam. The two main bath areas, called “Shiun-sen” and “Togen-sen,” switch between men and women daily, so you can experience both if you visit on consecutive days!
◆ Spacious Restaurant for After-Bath Meals
After your bath, relax at the in-house restaurant “Yuntaku.”
The spacious dining area serves Okinawan-style meals such as soba noodles and stir-fried “champuru” dishes.
Many locals enjoy an ice-cold beer and a plate of goya champuru after soaking —
it’s the perfect Okinawan-style evening!
