We stayed in the cottage 5 minutes away, it had everything we needed and the view was beautiful. The staff were excellent, helpful hosts. There was a washing machine and somewhere to hang the clothes with a fan to dry them, a bathtub big enough for two as well as a kitchen. We highly recommend the menu at Takahira Base, super healthy and delicious.

Staff was really kind and helpful. Good location close to the city center and to the port if you travel to Yakushima. Room and bathroom were clean, but the bed was a bit too small (for 2).

front house attendants are super helpful and friendly. I was so lost when I found out bus services is so little and rent a car is the best way going around the island, by the time I found out this, I was already in the hotel checking in, the girl who helped me the check-in was so helpful that she called the rent-a-car company for me(since I can't speak Japanese) and arranged the rental car to be driven just in front of the hotel, so that I don't have to call taxi to go back and forth to car rental company, isn't she so helpful?! Moreover, she also introduced all the areas, routes, sight seeing places to me which she doesn't have to do it, but she did, I felt like I am taking care of and it felt so good as a alone traveler. The room is spacious, room service is superb, places are clean. Too bad my room is not sea view and I want to eat in the lounge where I can enjoy the sea view but it's closed due to COVID and it's understandable. the view from the hotel area is very good with nice sea view. One more thing I should say is their helpfulness, I need sewing box, they lend it to me, I need adapter, they lend it to me. All in all, you ask and they will fulfill your request to their best.

We loved our stay here and stayed longer than planned as our ferry was cancelled due to the weather. The owner made our stay special by helping us to cancel and change other reservations we made. The facilities are all super clean and nice. The kitchen area is very well equipped and you have everything to cook. It is outside but under a roof. The beds are super comfy and we slept very well. The owner also helped us a lot planning hikes and activities. She is a wonderful person!

    I only come to climb the mountains. If you like surfing or all kinds of mountains/beachside activities. Should stay longer. The information center, MUST GO!!!! The local bus only has paper information, the digital/ internet information is not as easy to get as in cities.

    Yakushima is incredibly beautiful, and because of its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, there are many more accommodations for foreign travellers than other areas of Japan (even on the mainland). The bus routes are very straightforward—especially if you have a single- or multi-day bus pass, but it is much easier to bring or rent a car and simply drive around the island. I particularly enjoy visiting Shinto shrines, and there are a good handful of them on the island, but the main Yaku-jinja is really lovely and right next to the ocean south of Miyanoura port. If you have the chance, I also recommend taking a chopstick-making workshop, or visit the Yakusugi museum and do a hands-on demonstration there. The only major problem is that the main transport to and from the island is by ferry, and if the seas are too rough, the ferries don't operate and you may be stranded for extra time (1 day for me).

    Hard to put it in short but it was outstanding.

    Hard to put it in short but it was outstanding. Arrive by fery from Kagoshima and took a flight back to Tokyo. 4 wonderful days full of hiking, nature, view, stunning waterfalls wildlife, forest with 2000 years old Cedars trees., beach, sand and more. We visited the island on Dec. It is off season so need to understand what this means. From one hand we were alone on all hiking, trails, outdoor onsen...just perfect. On the other hand, most coffee, restaurants are closed. You must make sure you either take hotel with meals or like use, a house we could cook in. And it was a big success.

    Yakushima is a small Japanese Galapagos.

    Yakushima is a small Japanese Galapagos. The 22km hike along the disused railway line to the cedar tree was incredible. Buy your bus tickets the day before at the information center outside the airport and get there early! We arrived at 4:45am to catch the bus and there was already a queue. Heaps of waterfalls to see and wildlife (deers and monkeys). The 15km one way drive along the west coast is amazing and nerve wrecking at the same time when another car approaches. Lots of reversing. Highly recommend but also note that it rains a lot which makes it a tropical paradise.

    You really need to rent a car, and be sure to do so before your trip! Once I got there all the taxis were booked for the next few days and most every rental car was as well, I went to like 4 different places before finally finding a car. Totally changed my trip once I was driving around - I was nervous to drive on the left side for the first time (I'm American) but it was not bad at all! They go very slow there. Make sure you go to the ocean onsens on the south side of the island, that was one of my favorite parts! I went 4 nights which was enough to see almost everything I wanted, but I would've loved to spend more time there too. It was always my dream destination and I am so thankful to have gone, absolutely beautiful and totally different from the rest of Japan, or anywhere else I've ever been.

    Lush, green, off the beaten track.

    Lush, green, off the beaten track. We loved the hiking, nature and kind people in Yakushima. Could have stayed longer than three nights to explore more trails. Don't be afraid to eat a flying fish -- "wings" and all. Renting a car makes it easier to get around, but we chose to stick with public transit, walking and taxi which was fine, if a bit limiting.

    We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Yakushima. The location is beautiful, peaceful, and perfect for exploring the island. The house itself was spacious, very clean, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our host was incredibly kind and attentive, making sure everything went smoothly and offering helpful advice for enjoying Yakushima to the fullest. This was truly a perfect experience — 10/10. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the island.

    The 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!

    The room was comfy and zen! We stayed in the Namiomoto room and it was spacious and clean. Very comfortable. Food was great too. There’s nothing else to do in Yakushima at night so being in a nice big room helped.
