matsuri technologies Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku, Tokyo; CEO: Keita Yoshida; hereinafter 'matsuri'), which operates 'StayX,' a software-driven solution for maximizing spatial value, is pleased to announce that it has been contracted to operate 45 residential units in 'JMF Building Okinawa Kokusai-dori 01' owned by Japan Metropolitan Fund Investment Corporation (Code: 8953; hereinafter 'JMF') for short-term rental and residential lodging based on a master lease agreement.
The property is the residential section of a 10-story complex located along Kokusai-dori in Okinawa, featuring an internal corridor design. In Okinawa, where inbound tourism is concentrated, the project aims to expand the capacity for travel demand as a new lodging option to replace traditional hotels.
The units consist of 45 apartments in total: 1LDK (approx. 35 sqm) on floors 4-8 and 2LDK (approx. 54 sqm) on floors 9-10, catering to a wide range of guest needs from family and group travel to solo trips. With all rooms featuring fully equipped kitchens, the residential-style design supports stays ranging from several nights to multiple weeks.
The number of foreign visitors to Japan reached a record high of 36.87 million in 2024, and the market continues to expand toward the government's target of 60 million by 2030. Meanwhile, due to high construction costs and land prices, hotel supply has struggled to keep up with demand, and private lodging is increasingly serving as social infrastructure to supplement urban lodging needs. By fully introducing 'StayX,' developed in-house by matsuri technologies, management of guest acquisition, reservation, price optimization, and cleaning is unified via software, achieving stable operations with labor-saving management. It is scheduled to start operations in June 2026 as a new stay base in Naha Kokusai-dori.
Property Overview:
Name: JMF Building Okinawa Kokusai-dori 01
Location: 3-29-2 Kumoji, Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture
Target: 45 residential units on 4th to 10th floors (1LDK-2LDK)

About StayX:
'StayX' is a solution that maximizes spatial value with software as its core. It allows a single space to be flexibly changed to accommodate various uses. For example, a rental property that could previously only be leased for two-year terms can be transformed into a facility that can be operated for single-night stays or monthly rentals. Our software covers all aspects of the business, including online customer acquisition, real-time inventory management, price adjustment, and AI-driven cleaning staff management, enabling unmanned facility operation. We solve labor shortages due to population decline through the power of software and create a new form of social infrastructure by delivering necessary spaces to those who need them.
