About this place
This resort stands on Cape Zanpa in Yomitan Village, on Okinawa’s west coast, next to the Zanpa lighthouse and its limestone cliffs. It reopened under the Grand Mercure name after operating for years as the Royal Hotel Okinawa Zanpamisaki.
Yomitan is a car-only destination — there is no rail and bus service is thin — so the hotel address is one you will actually type into a navigation unit. Route 6 runs out to the cape and the resort is at the end of it, past the lighthouse turning.
Need a mapcode for somewhere else?
This site covers 30 places. Your hotel, the rental return lot, the restaurant you booked — those need mapcodes too, and they are not on this list. The app converts any Japanese address or place name, in English, Korean, Chinese or Japanese. Free.
How to enter this in your car navigation
- On the navigation home screen, choose Destination (目的地).
- Choose Mapcode (マップコード) from the search methods.
- Type the digits, then the asterisk and the last two digits.
- Confirm the map preview shows the right area before you set the route.
Most Japanese rental cars (Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Times, Orix) accept mapcodes. Some older units ignore the *nn suffix — that is fine, it only refines the pin.
Where these coordinates come from
A Korean traveller tried six different ways to find this hotel and failed every time: the Korean name returned nothing twice, “grand mercure okinawa” matched a different hotel in Naha, adding “cape” returned nothing, a Plus Code returned nothing, and only the postal code eventually worked. The rebrand is why — the building’s records still carry its old name. The coordinates here were confirmed against Mapion’s building position for Yomitan Uza 1575.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the mapcode for Grand Mercure Okinawa Cape Zanpa Resort?
- The mapcode is 1005 656 641*43, pointing at a spot in 沖縄県. Written as decimal degrees the same point is 26.435100, 127.718000. A navigation unit takes the mapcode in far fewer keystrokes than the coordinates, so enter the code.
- What is a mapcode?
- A mapcode is a short numeric code that identifies a spot in Japan, developed by Denso. Japanese car navigation systems accept it directly, which avoids typing a Japanese address on a Japanese keyboard.
- How do I enter a mapcode in a Japanese rental car?
- On the navigation unit choose Destination (目的地), then Mapcode (マップコード), then type the digits. The two digits after the asterisk are an optional precision suffix; older units simply ignore them.
- What do the digits after the asterisk mean?
- They are a high-resolution suffix that narrows the point to roughly a few metres. Without them the code still resolves, just to a slightly wider area.
