It's located in front of one of the bus stops in Miyanoura. It's very convenient to move around and close to the Miyanoura port and tourist information center. The room I stayed in was very comfortable, wide and clean. The receptionist was very kind and accommodating. I could do the check-in procedure earlier since I wanted to take the bus to do one of the trails. She showed me around and took my luggage to the room when it was ready. When I came back from the hike I could go straight to the room to rest and do my laundry.

Super friendly hosts. Early check-in was possible, and he even gave us a lift to the Shiratani Unsuikyo Hiking Trail because we didn't have a car. The view of the ocean is also stunning! (If you stay on Yakushima longer than one day, I do recommend renting a car because busses don't go everywhere, only once per hour I think and stop pretty early in the evening.)

We had an amazing stay in this guesthouse. Barbara & Lee are the best hosts ever. Very kind, fun and welcoming. The other guests that we shared the house with were also great. And the house is beautiful! If you consider booking, keep in mind that you really do share the space with the other guests. Sound travels very easily in this house and people might be up chatting til 11pm. However if you are looking for a social experience and don't mind some noise at times, it's well worth it! The people we stayed with were respectful and kind and I hope all future guests will be as well. I recommend renting a car for this stay (A car is also great for Yakushima over all)

The room was very cosy and comfortable, the bathrooms clean and functionally equipped with everything you could possibly need. The owners were nice and helpful, even though they spoke Japanese, they explained the bus, the hiking possibilities and gave us food recommendations. The location is perfect, 20 minutes walk from the ferry terminal and close to the restaurant and bus stop so you don't need a car. The breakfast is Japanese but adequate.
