We loved our stay here and stayed longer than planned as our ferry was cancelled due to the weather. The owner made our stay special by helping us to cancel and change other reservations we made. The facilities are all super clean and nice. The kitchen area is very well equipped and you have everything to cook. It is outside but under a roof. The beds are super comfy and we slept very well. The owner also helped us a lot planning hikes and activities. She is a wonderful person!

It's located in front of one of the bus stops in Miyanoura. It's very convenient to move around and close to the Miyanoura port and tourist information center. The room I stayed in was very comfortable, wide and clean. The receptionist was very kind and accommodating. I could do the check-in procedure earlier since I wanted to take the bus to do one of the trails. She showed me around and took my luggage to the room when it was ready. When I came back from the hike I could go straight to the room to rest and do my laundry.

The little pension is run by a lovely grandma and grandpa. Very welcoming, even though there was a language barrier, as they do not speak English, we managed to get the point across via translation apps. They offer yummy breakfast and can prepare nice bento for you if you ask for it for lunch. The location is great, near the airport, however car is optimal for the best experience. The location of the pension is close to all of the main routes and key activities. We were staying in the private bathroom room and were happy with the facilities.

Everything is great! Barbara is an amazing host, she makes sure that you understand everything and she creates a healthy atmosphere. It is also very easy to talk with people and would recommend for people traveling alone. The old architecture gives the place a magical atmosphere.

As i have said in my google review, i think this is the best homestay you can find in Yakushima. This is my second time staying with Taguchi and Hitomi san and as the 1st time, they are so nice and accommodating. They gave great suggestions ** i walked and climbed some difficult trails and it took me a total of 14hrs in2 days ** my legs ohh...hahha...and they also offered to pick you or send you to the port for your trip. They did their outmost best to make you feel at home which I said it did make me feel very welcome ^^ Clean and cosy...the room is big and the house is well designed.
