A CULTURE OF SUSTAINABILITY
This 95,000-square-meter island of uplifted coral preserves Miyakojima’s native vegetation and contours. Ryukyu limestone architecture blends seamlessly into the landscape.
Rosewood Miyakojima champions sea turtle conservation by partnering with local communities and a research institute to foster harmony between humans and marine life. Initiatives include plush toys made from discarded fishing nets and immersive guest programs led by a sustainability manager, offering meaningful connections to nature and the island's unique ecosystem.
In sleep, the fish feels no fear, no pain—only a quiet passing. What may seem cruel is, in truth, a gentler way to take life. It is an act of respect: to cause no fear, to eat with humility.
More than a tribute to the Ryukyu Kingdom, Taragawa Distillery is shaping a new chapter—aging island-grown sugarcane into rum, crafted in barrels made specially for Rosewood Miyakojima.
Before dawn, fishermen cast for skipjack in the waters off Miyakojima. The catch is slowly smoked and transformed into namari-bushi—a humble, time-honored food that has long sustained islanders and graces the breakfast table at Rosewood Miyakojima, where every bite echoes with generations of wisdom.
