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!

The location is conveniently situated near a public bus stop, only a short one-to-two minute walk away, and a supermarket is within a ten-minute walk. Parking is available for guests arriving by car. The room was impeccably clean and comfortable. A shared kitchen and refrigerator are available for guest use. The food provided by the host was exceptionally good value. Most importantly, the host was incredibly kind and provided outstanding hospitality.

Perfect place, behind the bridge but close to the river. Very modern real wood interiors, nice cosy and friendly atmosphere. Many ready made meals available for purchase and preparation in well equiped kitchen. Owner/caretaker speaks very good English and can give valuable advice.

I was in the new building. Everything was very clean, functional and functioning, including the laundry room and the kitchen. I really liked my room with the view on the mountains and the forest. I found it very comfortable, the location is perfect as it is quiet, extremely close to the bus stops and 15 minutes by foot from the ferry harbour. The owners at the reception did their best to explain to me how to get around with the public transportation, and they even organise daily vegan (!) bento boxes that are delivered to the accommodation. Highly recommended!

The little pension is run by a lovely grandma and grandpa. Very welcoming, even though there was a language barrier, as they do not speak English, we managed to get the point across via translation apps. They offer yummy breakfast and can prepare nice bento for you if you ask for it for lunch. The location is great, near the airport, however car is optimal for the best experience. The location of the pension is close to all of the main routes and key activities. We were staying in the private bathroom room and were happy with the facilities.

Everything is great! Barbara is an amazing host, she makes sure that you understand everything and she creates a healthy atmosphere. It is also very easy to talk with people and would recommend for people traveling alone. The old architecture gives the place a magical atmosphere.

My brother and I stayed there in May for 4 nights and we were more than satisfied. The owners were so lovely, the room was clean and spacious. We couldn't book a rental car and luckily the owner booked one for us. So we can't thank them enough. It is worth booking breakfast and dinner. Meals were prepared with love and it was so delicious. And we got very helpful tips where to go to. Great value for the price. I recommend to book a rental car as early as possible 😁. ありがとございました❤️

    Lovely guest house with incredibly friendly hostess! It is simple, yet love everything and every moment there! The lady who runs the guest house is extremely nice and helped me book the boat when my initial plan went wrong. I felt home and I also made good friends there. The airport and a supermarket are close by, just 5 minute walk. Free washing machine which is a plus after doing a hike. Will surely come back again!

    Satomi was an incredible host and very helpful throughout the stay. She helped me plan all my hikes and because of her I managed to do the 3 main hikes on the island in my 3 days on Yakushima. I have never had a greater host at a guesthouse. The building has a very fun and quirky interior, it really feels like you are staying in Japanese house. The bed was comfortable enough for me.

    Barbara was such a great host, recommending places to visit on Yakushima and so knowledgeable. The property is in a small town on the North Coast of Yakushima, very quiet and peaceful. Thanks for such an amazing time!
