    Shiratani Unsuikyo was breathtaking.

    Shiratani Unsuikyo was breathtaking. Jumonsugi Cedar trail was an adventure but not as pretty as Shiratani Unsuikyo. I am glad I did it but would not do it again. I will remember Shiratani Unsuikyo for the rest of my life as one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and I have travelled a lot. Words cannot describe how beautiful it was. I wish I had 4 nights here. I needed one more day to explore the island. People should think twice about doing Jumonsugi trail. It is a lot and quite hard. Do it for the adventure but not for the views.

    Incredible island full of wonderful nature toe explore, I could have spent 5 days here probably, although a car rental would be really helpful. The buses and taxis are relatively expensive and not always available or convenient.

    You have to hike on Yakushima to really appreciate it.

    You have to hike on Yakushima to really appreciate it. The drive into the hills to get to these walks is incredible. The walks through moss and forests of ancient trees is brillant. It is like stepping into another world on Yakushima. If not into hiking, then the waterfalls and beaches and tide pools are also great.

    It is an amazing island with beautiful nature and scenery...

    It is an amazing island with beautiful nature and scenery but not well developed infrastructure and scarce public transport system. Best to rent a car, otherweise it limits activity on the other side of the island. Realisticly speaking the one destination visit per day is maximum with public transport. It is also necessary to begin early, as there are not really activities just for a half day (due to bus schedules). Therefore a 3 days stay may be a bit too short considering travel time with a ferry. It is good idea to shop before reaching island as there is limited supermarket choice.

    Very wild Island.

    Very wild Island. Good for people liking forest and trails, not good for people liking beaches. Not touristic Island. Organic Island, locals people are nice and helping. No shops. 7 days is enough to stay and visit.

    We loved being in nature every day.

    We loved being in nature every day. Almost wherever you go, you have a view of the mountains and ocean. There are beautiful flowers everywhere. The less demanding hiking trails are interesting and fun and the waterfalls are spectacular. The onsens--especially the ocean onsen--are varied. The residents are friendly and helpful.

    I loved the beautiful view. The room was comfortable and perfect for a solo traveler. I liked that it had a Japanese traditional feel even if it was not a traditional building. it was also nice to have the sentō and the laundry machines to use. I made friends with one of women who worked there and she was so nice and welcoming to me. The owner of the hotel was friendly and brought me around to see some nature highlights. The hotel felt like an extended family. I was here for a week and was very content and I would stay here again.

    Kitchen and washing machine is available for free. It was very convenient to be able to wash all the dirty clothes after a long hiking. Room air conditioner is new and very efficient. Slept very comfortably. There is a supermarket nearby, which allowed us to buy breakfast and lunch at cheap price. Luckily there were no other guests staying while we stayed. So we had very pleasant time staying here.

    Beautiful home which was spotlessly clean and decorated perfectly to match the surroundings of Yakushima. Yuki was a wonderful host who always had a smile on her face, would ask us about our day and had lots of recommendations. She was also really helpful making reservations for us, etc. We felt truly at home here and will come straight back when we visit Yakushima again.

    Friendly hosts, clean rooms and wonderful food. Remains the best food I’ve had in Japan after 2 months there! It’s also very chilled but social - you sit with other guests to eat breakfast and dinner. I’d recommend renting a car to get around the island. I used a company called YES Yakushima who arranged my ferry tickets and car rental.

    The lodge is absolutely beautiful and has everything one could need. The host is very friendly and gave us some very useful suggestions. The neighborhood is very green and peaceful and we enjoyed daily interactions with chickens and a very jumpy goat. We will definitely stay again if we visit Yakushima again.

    Very good location, good wifi and parking right next to the building. Bus stop is also right in front of the building. The facilities are simple, but basic standard for japanese guest houses. There are recommendations and pamphlets available for what to do in Yakushima. Also the price is very fair.

    Very good value for money, in a traditional rural Japanese house. Placed in a very peaceful location in the island, the lady was very nice and the lodging was great. I couldn’t afford the ryokans in my stay in Japan, so this was a good substitute, and was also the best place I stayed in in Japan

    Amazing hospitality (the host was sweet and caring), you have everything you need - enough toilets (2 per floor), onsen-style shared bath and all the amenities in the room. Perfect for Yakushima stay. Also, the room is insulated enough to keep off the nasty insects if you don’t open windows.

    Had all the amenities you'd need at a hostel, and it was a bonus that I was the only one in the female dormitory at the time. Right on top of a restaurant with a couple more nearby and within walking distance across the river. The hostess was lovely, even though I was checking in late.

    The owner Hiro was so kind!! I wish I could’ve stayed longer. His Hostel was one of the cleanest I’ve ever stayed in and it smelled so lovely. Only a 1 hour walk to the senpiro waterfall viewing point, but there is beautiful view of a stream right next to the house.
