The warm preparation for guests who have just finished the courses. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fair enough. There's a mini store to buy fruits and drinks just located opposite the hotel.

Very friendly host. The cottage was very clean, with comfortable beds. The location is great, walking distance to a fantastic restaurant. Could not ask for a better stay in Yakushima, it made our short stay on the island unforgettable!

The hosts are truly welcoming and friendly, going to great lengths to make the hotel feel like a home. The breakfast is delicious and filling, and there are great restaurants nearby for dinner.
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 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.

Very wild Island.
Very wild Island. Good for people liking forest and trails, not good for people liking beaches. Not touristic Island. Organic Island, locals people are nice and helping. No shops. 7 days is enough to stay and visit.
Gotta love Yakushima and I would probably stay here again if I returned. I really enjoyed having a beer looking out my window, down the river to the mysterious looking mountains. It was really cool! I had a comfortable stay after an adventuous day. It was handy to have a good start to the day with the provided breakfast and there are some great dinner options a short walk across the bridge or the place next door on the river. I really enjoyed my stay in Yakushima and would happily stay here again if I returned.
Having stayed in a lot of hotels, it was really nice to have a whole cottage to ourselves, where we didn't have to worry about noisy neighbours. The beach was just a 30 minute walk with an amazing coastline view. Good local restaurants & quite close to the bus route. The staff & the meal we ordered were outstanding & they even had a massage pillow in the room which was fantastic after a long hike 😍😌
An absolutely amazing experience. The host was extremely friendly and helped us organise our time on Yakushima including organising prepared lunches for us to take, and advising us of buses and ferries we should aim to get. Alongside this, the food was phenomenal and the accommodation was clean, comfortable, quiet and relaxing. Recommended extremely highly.
It is a walking distance from Miyanoura port and from airport bus directly goes to that port quite offen. The staff are very helpful, and they did they best to assist me when I needed help.
Breakfast has a lot of options, and they offer lunch pack for people who want to go hiking very early and can not have breakfast at the hotel.
Daichan House is an incredible place to stay at, and if you're going to Yakushima and plan on staying somewhere budget friendly I could not recommend it more. It is cash only, as is most of the island, so beware of that upon coming, but other than that Daichan is an incredible host, and getting to know him is an absolute joy :>
Yuki was an incredible host. We would absolutely stay the Pension Blue Drop again when we visit Yakushima again! The beds were extremely comfortable, the facility was beautiful and Yuki gave us great information about things to do in the area. Definitely opt in to the meals there, as they are DELICIOUS!
Amazing hospitality (the host was sweet and caring), you have everything you need - enough toilets (2 per floor), onsen-style shared bath and all the amenities in the room. Perfect for Yakushima stay. Also, the room is insulated enough to keep off the nasty insects if you don’t open windows.
The building was a gorgeous old japanese house with lots of charm and modern amenities. Our host Barbara was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the island. Feel free to ask her if you need any help or suggestions. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return someday
Spacious room, great shower, functional kitchen and most importantly the bus stop is right in front, so convenient. Also there is supermarket walking 10mins very chill. And the bridge has the best view to look over the mountains, oh Yakushima!
Amazing option in Yakushima. Very nice hosts in Hitomi and Shigeru who will help you with your planning or even to rent a car. Best food with homestyle japanese cooking for breakfast and dinner. Thank you for the experience!!!
Rooms were nice, everything was very good. We loved it here. The host has a cute orange cat that welcomed us outside (it doesnt come into the house for people concerned about allergies).
Yakushima was a magical stay for us!
The hostel owner is really friendly and happy to help, we felt like a family there. Facilities are clean, big kitchen with all what we needed available. Very great value - a gem in Yakushima! We will stay again.
Friendly and warm host. Ready to provide you with local information, help make reservations, and share Yakushima's beauty. The space felt more homey as the owner was very warm and inviting. Thank you very much!
Excellent place to use as a bae for operation in Yakushima for exploring the island. Owners are extremely friendly and helpful in planning your stay. Didn't eat any meals there but they looked tasty!
It's cheap and in Aso which makes transport by bus a lot easier (especially if using the high speed ferry to Anbo). If you only have a short stay on the island, stay either in Anbo or Miyanoura.
Perfectly setted between all Yakushima's attractions. Located in a beutiful sorroundings. The owner Hiro is very helpful and kind with great english. The hostel is super clean.
Incredible hotel, one of the best we have ever stayed at. The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating. The food was delicious and the facilities world class.
