Rosewood Resort Miyakojima
Work in progress
Studio Piet Boon has been selected by Rosewood Hotels & Resorts® and Mitsubishi Estate Co, Ltd to design for Rosewood Miyakojima on Miyako Island, in the Okinawa archipelago. The resort, consisting of 55 villas and several common buildings, is the first Rosewood resort for Rosewood Hotels & Resorts® in Japan. The Miyakojima Peninsula is praised for its beautiful beaches in one of the most scenic locations in the country. Miyako Island and nearby islands offer miles of soft, white sand with endless vistas of turquoise blue sea. Aquatic adventures range from snorkeling at Yabiji, the largest coral reef in Japan, to diving through underwater caves teeming with marine life.
The resort’s villas feature private pools, landscaped gardens and unobstructed sea views. The complete lay-out, architecture and interiors were designed by Studio Piet Boon, which immerses guests in the natural environment and expresses harmony with the island through the extensive use of local materials and local customs. Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei Inc. is providing local architectural expertise and support to realize the design vision.
“Our approach for this hotel is based on modern interpretations of Miyakojima's traditional architecture to create a harmonious and welcoming environment where guests are immersed in the local nature”
- Piet Boon, founder Studio Piet Boon
Four restaurants and bars will include relaxed beachside concepts featuring fresh seafood, island-local beef, local spirits and craft beer. Asaya, Rosewood’s groundbreaking integrated wellness concept, will offer treatment rooms amid private gardens, indoor and outdoor hydrotherapy facilities and a menu of programs and services influenced by local healing traditions.
