The view was incredible… we were on the south side facing the ocean on the fifth floor.
Onsen: awesome. Extremely clean, water temp was perfect, water was a little alkaline, but too much to where you need to rinse it off afterwards.

Hiro-san gave us a tour of the guest house, and a quick rundown of helpful tourist facts and suggestions. The guesthouse is beautiful and very clean. We were able to get a room with two beds to ourselves with our own key.

We spent six nights at the property. The host was friendly and welcoming, providing us with a brief tour when we arrived. Our cottage was a suite featuring two beds and a private bathroom. The property was clean and well-maintained. The shared laundry facilities, on-site vending machines, shoes drier were very convenient and useful.

Mike and Keiko welcomed us at the ferry to hand over our car: we got valuable hints to visit the island with our 2 kids!
The house is just perfect: we loved it! And the terrace, the garden and the sea view…
Waow!
Of course Mike and Keiko gave us snorkeling gears also to enjoy the wonderful sea life!

사장님을 비롯한 직원들이 모두 친절하고 편안하게 대응을 해주셨다. 특히, 사장님의 친절을 오래 기억할 듯 싶다.
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.

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.
I slept very well here, it was calm and the room was nice and clean. There were extra things like drip coffee bags in the room, which I really appreciated. The location was great as it was next to the ferry, bus stop, supermarket, and tourist information, where I got the island maps, bus schedules etc. The staff was really friendly and helpful. All in all, it was great value for the price. I hope I can return one day!
It was very clean and quiet and comfortable. Our host Barbara was amazing. she was very hospitable and very friendly. We had a cracking view over the river. It’s close to a couple of beaches so you can find one for swimming and snorkelling. There are lots of cool fish! Will definitely stay again if we return to Yakushima.
An absolutely amazing place to stay in Miyanoura area. The room was very spacious and had everything you might need, and the traditional bath elevated the experience even further. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful. We hope to come back to Yakushima and to Sen-no-Ie in particular (¬‿¬)
Very nice room and gives cabiny vibes when staying here. Hanging mat to enjoy the sunrise or sunset on the balcony. Great place to stay if you’re going to Yakushima. It’s also walkable from the ferry terminal in miyanouri but a car would be recommended.
The kind owner helped us with our car rental booking when our flight was cancelled due to bad weather . The breakfast prepared was wonderful. The rooms are well equipped and lots of library reference books to flip through about yakushima island
