THE HOTEL YAKUSHIMA ocean & forest, hotel in Yakushima

Set in Yakushima, 11 km from Shiratani Unsuikyo, THE HOTEL YAKUSHIMA ocean & forest offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking and a restaurant.

The location is stunning. We booked a room with an ocean view and it did not disappoint. The breakfast was delicious, and the hotel packed us bento boxes to take with us on hike. We made good use of the shoe dryer in the room too since we got soaked on said hike. Our stay was a bit of a splurge for us, but it was well worth it. The staff spoke English and we were able to fill in any gaps with a translation app.

    Amazing Jungle island to go on hikes and it has some gorgeous waterfalls especially in spring when the rain season is there. There are also some amazing beaches to chill across the island with great views

    Yakushima is a beautiful island with amazing views.

    Yakushima is a beautiful island with amazing views. The island is quiet and not touristy at all. Most things are closed on Sundays and don’t chose Yakushima if you want to go shopping or night life (it doesn’t exist). If you want great hiking, beautiful views and a touch of peace and quiet it’s a great place to go. Rent a car. Definitely worth it to tour the island and some of the inland roads (be warned they are very narrow and slow moving in many places, and you will need to reverse a lot for others to pass) It was a great way to see the island all its beauty and tons of monkeys.

    Shiratani Unsuikyo was breathtaking.

    Shiratani Unsuikyo was breathtaking. Jumonsugi Cedar trail was an adventure but not as pretty as Shiratani Unsuikyo. I am glad I did it but would not do it again. I will remember Shiratani Unsuikyo for the rest of my life as one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and I have travelled a lot. Words cannot describe how beautiful it was. I wish I had 4 nights here. I needed one more day to explore the island. People should think twice about doing Jumonsugi trail. It is a lot and quite hard. Do it for the adventure but not for the views.

    Incredible island full of wonderful nature toe explore, I could have spent 5 days here probably, although a car rental would be really helpful. The buses and taxis are relatively expensive and not always available or convenient.

    You have to hike on Yakushima to really appreciate it.

    You have to hike on Yakushima to really appreciate it. The drive into the hills to get to these walks is incredible. The walks through moss and forests of ancient trees is brillant. It is like stepping into another world on Yakushima. If not into hiking, then the waterfalls and beaches and tide pools are also great.

    It is an amazing island with beautiful nature and scenery...

    It is an amazing island with beautiful nature and scenery but not well developed infrastructure and scarce public transport system. Best to rent a car, otherweise it limits activity on the other side of the island. Realisticly speaking the one destination visit per day is maximum with public transport. It is also necessary to begin early, as there are not really activities just for a half day (due to bus schedules). Therefore a 3 days stay may be a bit too short considering travel time with a ferry. It is good idea to shop before reaching island as there is limited supermarket choice.

    Absolutely stunning place! Large cottage overlooking the water, with unit bath inside and a beautiful outdoor tub on the deck! This was an amazing base for our nights on the island. Staff were just wonderful, providing comprehensive tourist information, and personal recommendations based on our planned itinerary. I wholeheartedly recommend this location, and would not hesitate to re-book if we visit Yakushima again in the future.

    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!

    I loved absolutely everything about this property, it was a relaxing atmosphere, the breakfast provided were delicious and big portions, and the host went out of her way to ensure that I had everything for my stay. She helped make restaurant reservations, massage bookings, and gave advice on areas of the island to visit. Would definitely stay again!!!

    Clean guesthouse and in a beautiful location. Hiro was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable with planning routes and transport. Some food can be purchased at very reasonable price which you cook yourself. Other guests were very nice and friendly. The whole island is beautiful and people are incredibly kind and welcoming.

    Good location, the bus station is right outside and it's near to supermarkets. The guest house has maps and bus timetables available, there is a shared kitchen and equipment for cooking your own food, with washing facilities. Staff are friendly, and our room was clean and comfy too. A great base for exploring Yakushima!

    Phenomenal location with convenient access to restaurants, grocery stores, rental services, and Shiratani Unsuikyo. The owner was a very helpful guide and provided lots of good advice and guidance around the island. The Guesthouse atmosphere was relaxed and also made for easy and enjoyable connections between guests.

    The service was really good. The owner took half an hour to talk to us and explain things. He explained some interesting facts about Yakushima and so on. This is just a different experience and you should accept it as such. It might not be a hotel, but it was a pleasant experience looking back. I recommend it.

    The cottage is clean and well organised. And the owner helped us with driving us to the entrance point for the local peak. You cannot be sure if the taxi is available from nine pm to five am in Yakushima. He is very kind and helpful for such moment hikers.
