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.

The owner and staff were absolutely fantastic. The owner help us figure everything out for a next day's trek to Jomon Sugi. And day after that one of his staff took us to the airport to help us rent a car. They truly go above and beyond and the property is also very nice. Lot's of tasty izakayas around.

It was super cute, and the staff was so friendly and helpful. it was located in a very calm area, accessible by bus with just a short walk from the bus stop. There were two restaurants in the area, one sushi restaurant a 15 min walk from the house and another one a bit further away. The staff, Mr Ryosaki Nakashima, helped us call and make a reservation at the sushi restaurant, which was lucky since it was almost full when we arrived. It was possible to wash your clothes for free at Cottage Morinokokage, and there were also some vending machines with food and drinks available. We also asked for breakfast (possible to book upon check-in) which was very nice and in-expensive.

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.

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...

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.

I enjoyed my stay at Minshuku Satomachi. The guesthouse location is good: you can take the local bus to the airport or the Nature Museum on the way to Arakawa trail; the bus stop is about 5-7 minutes on foot from the guesthouse. The host is polite and friendly, and all the amenities have been provided. Price/Quality ratio met my expectations. Nice choice for those who want to save some money and have a pleasant stay on Yakushima.

The cottage is in a great location very close to the airport, super cute with lots of space and Mr Nakashima and his team are really lovely and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, helping us to rent a car, order a bento for our hikes and also even arranging to send some souvenirs we accidentally left in the rental car as well. Wonderful stay, highly recommend to anyone visiting Yakushima!

They are super nice and the place is super clean. The owner Shigeru-san picked me up from the pier and gave me useful advice for my trip. The next day, I joined Shigeru-san's day tour and he showed me the best parts of Yakushima. I didn't do much researches about Yakushima and it turned out much more beautiful and interesting than I expected. I was so glad that I chose to stay here.

Yakusugi house is a great place to rest after a day of exploring Yakushima. It's a short drive from the port, supermarket and restaurants. The kitchen is well stocked and there is a washing machine and dryer. The host provided us western beds which were very comfy. We enjoyed spending our evenings under the kotatsu listening to the frogs outside.

Friendly hosts, clean rooms and wonderful food. Remains the best food I’ve had in Japan after 2 months there! It’s also very chilled but social - you sit with other guests to eat breakfast and dinner. I’d recommend renting a car to get around the island. I used a company called YES Yakushima who arranged my ferry tickets and car rental.
