Hello. Kazu from Lightmarks EV Rental.
“I think it takes time to recharge, so I might waste my precious trip…”
“I’d like to stay at a hotel with a charger if I can.”
I know you guys got concerns like this.
So, in this blog, I would like to introduce hotels on the main island of Okinawa where hotel charging is possible!
At Lightmarks EV Rental, you can have a charging card that can be used at about 20 locations in Okinawa free of charge while you rent our car. However, if you can charge your car while you sleep at the hotel, you don’t have to worry about charging while you are traveling so you can enjoy your trip to Okinawa with more flexibility of time!
This is an article that you can fully understands all the charging facilities of hotels in Okinawa!
Please read until the end!
Hotel with charging facility
Before we go into hotels that we can charge Tesla in Okinawa, I will introduce the kinds of charging port that can be found here. Each charging facility requires different adapter or power for the charging.
CHAdeMO Charger
There is some hotels equipped with a quick charge called CHAdeMo (it can be fully charged from empty to full in about an hour).
In that case, use a CHAdeMo adapter like the one below to charge.
All the car we rent comes with this charging adapter.
Hotel that has CHAdeMo adapter is listed below
2, Hotel Orion Motobu Resort & Spa
Outlet charging
There are hotels that use chargers with outlets for electric vehicles.
This is the most popular type of hotel charging in Okinawa, and can be fully charged from empty to full in about 19 hours.
At night, you can charge it while you are sleeping, and when you wake up, you can drive with a full charge or charged enough to drive around a day.
For outlet charging, use a charging cord with outlet.
We provide this outlet for free to customers staying at hotels with outlets. Please let us know the hotel you are staying at when you rent the car.
