We have stayed at the Hotel Yakushima Ocean and Forest several times and it is always a relaxing and special stay. The staff is kind, helpful, and polite. The view is amazing. Our Japanese style room was clean, comfortable, quiet, and beautifully laid out, with a gorgeous view of the ocean and many amenities (fridge, tea, water kettle, toiletries, hair dryer, etc.) The food at the hotel is delicious and there a couple of vegan and vegetarian selections, which was important to us. You must make reservations if you want the full set meal, but we were also able to get ala carte items when we arrived without a reservation. There are also several izakaya within walking distance (10-20 minutes walking) or by car. The hotel is also convenient to the port and there is a shuttle service to the airport as well. This time, we also booked a hiking tour to the Jomon-sugi. This was an amazing experience! It was also simple to book, and the tour guide picked us up and dropped us off right at the hotel, which was very convenient.

Good stay - we booked a 3-person room plus a single bed. Room is big enough for all 4 of us. Hotel has a bath (not onsen) but it was OK. Food is good but if you can pay a little more there are better restaurants in other parts of the island.

The majority of the rooms are beachfront/beach view. Great, ultra-modern shower & toilet. Good location on perimeter road; quiet (except for the surf)! Pleasant staff. Remote controlled window blind. Refrigerator. WiFi. A comfortable mix of up-to-date and traditional. Room (double with two beds) is on the small side as far as dealing with suitcases, etc., but not impossible

I had an unforgettable stay at ARC Yakushima! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and cared for. The property is beautifully nestled in the heart of Yakushima, offering stunning views of the island’s lush greenery and serene surroundings. The accommodations were clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, providing a perfect balance of comfort and nature. What truly stood out was the exceptional hospitality of the staff—they went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed and provided invaluable tips for exploring the island. The location was ideal for accessing some of the island’s best hiking trails and attractions, making it a fantastic base for adventure. Whether you’re here to explore Yakushima’s famous forests or simply unwind in tranquility, ARC Yakushima is an outstanding choice. I can’t wait to visit again!

Pretty much everything. It’s an old building, but it’s sturdy and charming. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Although it is located a ways from the more popular spots of the island, Isso beach and the town were wonderful. Also, there is plenty to do and explore farther along the coast.

We enjoyed seeing the beautiful sites on the island. If you enjoy nature, it is a beautiful place to visit. If you don’t rent a car, setting up tours is essential. It is hard to get around without a rental car or tour guide.

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.

Daichan is very kind and willing to share a lot of interesting stories. He helped me getting around Yakushima Island and showed me the interesting spots. He has also been very reactive when my ferry got cancelled and I did not know what to do. The tent and the bed were very comfortable, which I wasn't really expecting! There are lots of pictures and documents scattered around the facilities which gives plenty of charm and personality to this place. I can not recommend it enough!

Loved our stay at Cottage Morinokage. Beautiful cottages. Spacious, clean, and great facilities. Mr Nakashima is a wonderful host. He kindly assisted us with renting a vehicle for our stay in Yakushima, and gave us a helpful and comprehensive tour of our cottage and the shared facilities on our arrival, despite it being later in the evening. There are washing machines and dryers for use which was a huge help. There are also vending machines onsite for drinks and some basic food and snacks.
