Serviced Apartments in Yakushima

A very nice stay. Kind staff, great prepared meals, and a nice shower in the room after a long hike.

We loved the eclectic French theme of the design of our cottage, and the carefullly curated furnishings. All the cottages and other structures in the premises have been purposefully designed with a faux antique theme by the owner. The entire facility is tucked away from the main road, and is very quiet and charming. The owner is extremely personable and friendly. It was a pleasure getting to know him and his wife. I would strongly recommend this place for anyone looking for a quiet vacation spot to relax, or for a romantic getaway.

The Pros: The hotel is big, with wonderful mountain and ocean views. Rooms are big. The staff was mostly very courteous. The Cons: Built in the 1980s, the hotel doesn’t appear to have been renovated since then, giving it a “lost in time” feel. Very outdated facilities for charging electronic devices. Beds not comfortable. Food at the restaurant is expensive and mediocre. The hotel is also A LONG WAY from the ferry terminal (50 minutes) and the airport (35 minutes). Without a car, it would not be practical to reserve this accommodation.
