Pension BLUE DROP

Owner Toru grows beautiful organic vegetables and tropical fruits, and catch fishes by himself for guests. Host Yuki speaks English, learning French and Italian. We love taking care of guests, to make guest's travel easier, more interesting and comfortable. We used to work for international travel agency in big city. Yuki also used to work in a restaurant and organic bakery. She loves cooking very much, talking and being friends with guests. Both live in the same building to help guests, and chat!

The inn is beautifully decorated with plenty of local Yakushima cedar, with many original stained glass windows handmade by Yuki, and the morning sun shining through. The inn is located in the south of Yakushima, in a hot spring village. There are two indoor natural hot springs and two outdoor natural hot springs on the sea, all a 5-minute drive from the hotel. The nearest beaches for snorkelling are only 5-25 minute drive away.

Enjoy snorkelling, see large waterfalls and, in summer, watch sea turtles lay their eggs and hatchlings at night. The natural hot springs in the sea and indoor natural hot springs are all a five-minute drive. The summer starry sky, shooting stars and the Milky Way are also clearly visible from the outdoor hot springs and our parking lot. Enjoy the beautiful views of the neighbourhood and Yuki's original walking map to the hills and the sea. A medium supermarket is only a 5-minute drive away and small grocery shops, a bar and cafés are also within walking distance. The bus stop is only a 3-minute walk away, but a rental car is recommended as many lovely places are not accessible by bus.
