This was the most exceptional hotel I have ever stayed in. The room was pure luxury. The booking was half board which included not only an incredible buffet breakfast but a seven course dinner of Japanese food. The onsen was available almost all day and was a welcome part of each evening before dinner. The staff were incredibly helpful with all of my questions and always had information to hand knowing that most travellers were there to visit the trails. The hotel has a wonderful cafe in the lobby where you can enjoy fresh bakes with coffee. All in all an incredible experience. An added bonus is its proximity to the ferry and the bus stops in front of the hotel.

The cottage had everything we wanted and needed, so did the grounds and service provided. The property had washing machines with detergent and vending machines with snacks, heatable meals and drinks. Our room was clean and well-equipped with a little kitchen, nice toilet and a tv. The porch had a nice relaxing area with a bench and even a hammock you can hang up yourself. The owner is very conscientious and considerate, he’s thought of everything! There’s even a massager in the room if you are hiking as well as a foldable drying rack (with a place to hang it). He also helped us to book a car last minute and is always very responsive even when not around on the property. Highly recommend. :)

I only come to climb the mountains. If you like surfing or all kinds of mountains/beachside activities. Should stay longer. The information center, MUST GO!!!! The local bus only has paper information, the digital/ internet information is not as easy to get as in cities.

Yakushima is incredibly beautiful, and because of its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, there are many more accommodations for foreign travellers than other areas of Japan (even on the mainland). The bus routes are very straightforward—especially if you have a single- or multi-day bus pass, but it is much easier to bring or rent a car and simply drive around the island. I particularly enjoy visiting Shinto shrines, and there are a good handful of them on the island, but the main Yaku-jinja is really lovely and right next to the ocean south of Miyanoura port. If you have the chance, I also recommend taking a chopstick-making workshop, or visit the Yakusugi museum and do a hands-on demonstration there. The only major problem is that the main transport to and from the island is by ferry, and if the seas are too rough, the ferries don't operate and you may be stranded for extra time (1 day for me).

Hard to put it in short but it was outstanding.

Hard to put it in short but it was outstanding. Arrive by fery from Kagoshima and took a flight back to Tokyo. 4 wonderful days full of hiking, nature, view, stunning waterfalls wildlife, forest with 2000 years old Cedars trees., beach, sand and more. We visited the island on Dec. It is off season so need to understand what this means. From one hand we were alone on all hiking, trails, outdoor onsen...just perfect. On the other hand, most coffee, restaurants are closed. You must make sure you either take hotel with meals or like use, a house we could cook in. And it was a big success.

Yakushima is a small Japanese Galapagos.

Yakushima is a small Japanese Galapagos. The 22km hike along the disused railway line to the cedar tree was incredible. Buy your bus tickets the day before at the information center outside the airport and get there early! We arrived at 4:45am to catch the bus and there was already a queue. Heaps of waterfalls to see and wildlife (deers and monkeys). The 15km one way drive along the west coast is amazing and nerve wrecking at the same time when another car approaches. Lots of reversing. Highly recommend but also note that it rains a lot which makes it a tropical paradise.

You really need to rent a car, and be sure to do so before your trip! Once I got there all the taxis were booked for the next few days and most every rental car was as well, I went to like 4 different places before finally finding a car. Totally changed my trip once I was driving around - I was nervous to drive on the left side for the first time (I'm American) but it was not bad at all! They go very slow there. Make sure you go to the ocean onsens on the south side of the island, that was one of my favorite parts! I went 4 nights which was enough to see almost everything I wanted, but I would've loved to spend more time there too. It was always my dream destination and I am so thankful to have gone, absolutely beautiful and totally different from the rest of Japan, or anywhere else I've ever been.

Lush, green, off the beaten track.

Lush, green, off the beaten track. We loved the hiking, nature and kind people in Yakushima. Could have stayed longer than three nights to explore more trails. Don't be afraid to eat a flying fish -- "wings" and all. Renting a car makes it easier to get around, but we chose to stick with public transit, walking and taxi which was fine, if a bit limiting.

We loved everything! The cottage is really great, the hot tub on the balcony is soo nice and the staff is awesome! They went beyond and above and we felt really welcome here! We even got a daily local surprise which was really great and delicious! The location was perfect for us, not in the city and you could enjoy the island and the quiet surrounding. I would recommend to go by car as we felt this make it more convenient (but maybe only personal preference). All in all, we can only recommend staying here when visiting Yakushima.

Because of the typhoon we could not leave the island and had to extend our stay with 3 days. The staff was very helpful in canceling the hotels and car we had booked for our visit to Kyushu. Also to mention that the chef of the restaurant managed to propose diverse dinners despite food supply shortages on Yakushima.
