What unique features are incorporated in Treeful Treehouse?

Treeful Treehouse Sustainable Resort is committed to sustainability through innovative practices that harmonize with nature. The resort is producing more energy than used with their solar panels, and its use of electricity sources from local renewable energy, eliminating the need for fossil fuels. Its eco-friendly architecture such as raising the building 1.2 meters higher than the ground, minimizes environmental impact, allowing natural light and rain to nurture the surrounding ecosystem.

Water management is a key focus, with drinking water sourced from the nearby Genka River and sterilized using ultraviolet rays instead of chlorine. Hot water is efficiently heated overnight using surplus electricity, ensuring resource conservation. Waste reduction is another priority, exemplified by the use of natural grass management methods, including a goat named Donna who helps maintain the grounds sustainably.

Treeful also engages with the local community to preserve the region’s natural heritage and promote environmental stewardship. These initiatives create an immersive, eco-conscious experience for guests, blending innovative sustainability with the beauty of Okinawa’s forests. They are opening a new treehouse “Bamboo Treehouse” for you to stay soon!

An amazing retreat of peace

I love treehouses and just had to experience this place. The Spiral Treehouse is amazing and really lets you appreciate nature all around you. When you want a little more luxury , but still have the awesome view, the Aero house is waiting for you.

Toko-san was a great host, always checking in on us. The two dinners we had were excellent and they have a nice selection of wines as well!

To say my experience was wonderful, would be an understatement

The facilities, location, and services were perfect. I’ve been all over Okinawa in the 2.5 years I’ve lived here and the Treeful Treehouse is a MUST!

Toko was very accommodating, providing a welcoming and insightful tour of the premises as well as a delicious breakfast. Do yourself a favor and book a stay!
