The location is slightly outside the small port town, surrounded by the forest. The room is small, but very comfortable and everything is very clean. The staff is amazing, always there to help you with recommendations. They also pick us up from the port and gave us a couple of lifts to several locations. Definitely recommended!

What guests said about Yakushima:

Yakushima is a beautiful island with amazing views.
Yakushima is a beautiful island with amazing views. The island is quiet and not touristy at all. Most things are closed on Sundays and don’t chose Yakushima if you want to go shopping or night life (it doesn’t exist). If you want great hiking, beautiful views and a touch of peace and quiet it’s a great place to go. Rent a car. Definitely worth it to tour the island and some of the inland roads (be warned they are very narrow and slow moving in many places, and you will need to reverse a lot for others to pass) It was a great way to see the island all its beauty and tons of monkeys.SeanCanada - 10Scored 10
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.Sturkey - 10Scored 10

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.Pascale LeclercqFrance

- From US$127.02 per night9.2Scored 9.2SuperbRated superb· 341 reviewsThis is the second part of the same stay which I've reviewed already; please see my other review for details. We like the place pretty much and will not hesitate to stay here again. Exceptionally clean (even by Japans standard!), quiet, conveniently located to everything important in the Island cottage, perfect for a couple. Kitchen, albeit small, is pretty adequate for self catering (even for longer stays). Nice laundry facilities make daily chores simple and quick. Even little things like boots dryer are available. Thanks!
AlexanderUnited States - 7.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 378 reviewsI slept on an extremely comfortable futon, and was given everything needed to recharge at the end of a long day exploring Yakushima and be prepared for the next one. The staff were incredibly fun and welcoming, and did an excellent job of checking in on every guests itinerary for the day to make sure they had what they needed/knew how to get there and back in one piece. The breakfast bentos and optional lunch bentos were a convenient and filling way to feed an all-day hike. Everything was exceptional.
HenryUnited States - From US$409.29 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 301 reviewsI think the location of this hotel is absolutely amazing, it is on a cliff where you can see the ocean from the room! that is the part I really like, it is also very close to the port like a 5-minute walk, and a supermarket nearby, a very convenient location to start your journey on this island. you can book the tour group directly from the front desk and they even have hiking equipment for rental, so you can find everything you need here.
LeeyukiChina - 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 188 reviewsWalking distance from Miyanoura port and just opposite the bus stop to everywhere 😁 Quiet, clean. They would clean my room everyday and even change the bedding. The owner is very nice. He knows the bus timetable by heart and offered hiking poles, gloves, tankan fruit and everything I needed :) Nice and clean shower too, and free access to washing machine, which is a big plus in Yakushima! Did I mention the extra soft duvet and comfy bed?AnnalisaItaly
- 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 188 reviewsI cannot emphasize enough how fantastic Hidekazu-san was as a host. He was invaluable in offering tips and suggestions for my 2 night stay on Yakushima island. The location was quite centrally as well in the Miyanoura town area. This guesthouse is a renovated standard Japanese home but it had all the amenities that one could hope for. My shoes were completely soaked from hiking Yakushima but staff there helped me dry out overnight.TerenceUnited States
- 10Scored 10ExceptionalRated exceptional· 27 reviewsThe amazing island Yakushima along with its friendly people. We had an amazing experience for our last stop of our honeymoon trip to Japan. We rented a car for the days we were staying and this is really recommended since you're able to explore and see much more of the island. Shouji-san and Mami-san were super kind and we facilitated us in every way possible. Thank you so much for an unforgettable trip!DonnaNetherlands

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.KK ItoJapan

Nice sea view, house surrounded by nature everywhere. It was a bliss for us to stay there for three nights, we definitively felt "at home". Well located vis a vis main tourist spots (yet you would need a car). Excellent value for price.
