Staying in this beautiful, comfortable, rustic riverside guest house was one of the most notable moments of my whole travels. The lady that runs it is the sweetest and kindest person I have ever met. The location is absolutely perfect for exploring Yakushima and the Jomonsugi hike. The rooms are comfortable and clean as those of any ryokan, and there are large onsen style baths free to use. You absolutely MUST stay here if you plan on staying anywhere on the island. Its worth every yen.

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.

Very nice room and gives cabiny vibes when staying here. Hanging mat to enjoy the sunrise or sunset on the balcony. Great place to stay if you’re going to Yakushima. It’s also walkable from the ferry terminal in miyanouri but a car would be 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.
