The room is modern, great ocean view with a big balcony, lost of privacy and the bathtub with ocean view is amazing!
The hotel is very nice and the staff did their best to help and answer all our questions.
We took a private tour to the famous Moss Forests and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide! She was super knowledgeable and went out of her way to make our hike an unforgettable experience (Mish Higashi).
We where able to rent all the hiking gear that we needed for our tour.

The majority of the rooms are beachfront/beach view. Great, ultra-modern shower & toilet. Good location on perimeter road; quiet (except for the surf)! Pleasant staff. Remote controlled window blind. Refrigerator. WiFi. A comfortable mix of up-to-date and traditional. Room (double with two beds) is on the small side as far as dealing with suitcases, etc., but not impossible

Location is absolutely beautiful. Owner Hero-san knows everything about Yakushima & suggested us how to get to the places & times of buses. Last day, he sent us to local home cooking restaurant/Cafe which we thought incredibly charming & food was excellent !

Tomarigi
Yakushima
A 3-minute walk from Yakushima Airport, Tomarigi offers a bunk in a dorm room, a garden with a hammock and free Wi-Fi.
Henry
United States of America
Tomarigi’s Nee-san is like your landlord, travel agent, and mother all in one. It’s incredible to see her sit every guest down with a bus schedule to make sure they understand how to get around and make their trip a success. I saw her help plan a tourist’s entire 4 day itinerary minutes after check in. Her friendly nature is felt throughout the hostel and creates a great sense of community amongst the guests. The outdoor kitchen is an excellent place to unwind at the day’s end and make a few friends. The beds are extremely spacious and comfortable bunks, and the shower/bath is a great way to experience the life of a Japanese family for those who are visiting Japan for the first time.

What Guests Said About Yakushima:

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 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 - 10Scored 10
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.JudithJapan

- From $42.28 per night8.8Scored 8.8ExcellentRated excellent· 111 reviewsThis was my first time staying in a yurt, and Daichan House did not disappoint! Although we arrived well past sunset, Daichan was very energetic and friendly. After showing us around the property, he gave a little history lesson on Daichan House as well as Yakushima. He prepared a laminated booklet with photos and English descriptions. It was fun to talk with Daichan, which we probably did for over an hour. The yurt and shared restrooms were well-maintained. Free hot water, tea, coffee, and a local mikan orange were also provided :)SophiaUnited States of America

They speak very wenn english, they are always helpful and they can give very Good Information about everything what to do on Yakushima. Transport, Restaurants, hiking spots…. The Little Huts are all build by himself. The location near amnbo ist quite Good. Five minutes to the busstop. But its worth it to hire a car, so you are much more flexible. We had had the Most wonderful stay on Mr, Nakashimas place in our four week journey through Japan. Thank you 👏👏👏
UlrichGermany - 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 266 reviewsBarbara-san was so friendly and accommodating even after my very last minute bookings. I was able to share nice conversations with other guests in the pictures shared space. Most of the building and furniture inside is made from wood, which felt traditional and certainly fitting, for Yakushima. The rooms are beautiful, very spacious (I was travelling alone), with tatami floors. Some rooms at the front have a view (and sound) of the river. I felt lucky to have been able to stay for a couple of nights.NarayanUnited Kingdom
- 8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 281 reviewsI loved the location near the river and waterfall. It’s a high quality and high value hostel in an area that feels remote but worked out surprisingly well for buses to hiking areas. We took the early arriving boat to Miyanoura and could do two long trails in two days. The snack bar and ability to request bento boxes with advance notice are helpful for hikers. The owner speaks English and is willing to answer questions. We met other travelers in the common area.JojiroUnited States of America
- 9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 78 reviewsThe hosts were super friendly and really helpful with planning my trip or answering any questions I had before and during the trip. I chose Pension Blue Drop because it was nearby a few onsens, two of them being Hirauchi and Yudomari onsen. Both locations visited by locals but have become tourist attractions and a short drive away from the guest house. Towels provided were also switched out easily if you left them in a small bin and left outside your door.DerekUnited States of America
- From $279.76 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 287 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 - 8.7Scored 8.7ExcellentRated excellent· 40 reviewsWe loved this secluded cottage in the woods by a rushing river. The hand built cottage with pine interior is comfortable and has all one needs in a mountain cottage. It is quite spacious and relaxing. The owner Sato-san is friendly and helpful. We had a great week. One does need a car, but then that's really helpful anyway to get around Yakushima to the trails, etc. A perfect place to avoid the crowds.
PeterCanada - 9.7Scored 9.7ExceptionalRated exceptional· 23 reviewsAn absolutely amazing experience. The host was extremely friendly and helped us organise our time on Yakushima including organising prepared lunches for us to take, and advising us of buses and ferries we should aim to get. Alongside this, the food was phenomenal and the accommodation was clean, comfortable, quiet and relaxing. Recommended extremely highly.GeorgeUnited Kingdom
