2025 Summer Vacation Event Information

Ah, a "Festival Alley" echoing those nostalgic summer days sounds absolutely delightful! Imagine the kids' laughter as they try their hand at shooting games and katanuki, or the excitement of popping balloons with darts. And what a treat to unwind by the Garden Pool as the Okinawan sunset paints the sky, all while being serenaded by the soulful sounds of the sanshin and the vibrant rhythms of eisa. The water gun game adds that extra splash of fun for the little ones – truly something for the whole family to enjoy after an adventurous afternoon at JUNGLIA OKINAWA. It's the perfect way to extend the day's joy and immerse yourselves in the magic of an Okinawan summer evening right at the hotel.

In the summer, it's all about festivals! There will be old-fashioned stalls including a shooting gallery, balloon darts, yo-yo fishing, and more. You will want to try every single game!
