“Great stay in Yakushima”
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.

The owner was a very kind gentleman who helped give us a lift to not only the airport, but also the car rental!! The house was very clean and spacious with many facilities available, such as a washing machine.

The host is very nice and helpful. It was a great experience to have stayed in a traditional Japanese house. It's very conveniently located, especially if you have a car. Very quiet neighbourhood. There's lots of space in the house which is a nice change after weeks in tiny city hotel rooms. Generally well equipped - there was a pair of hiking poles, some shoe dryers, lots of local guide books which we found very useful.

A really nice traditional house. The sliding doors (shoji) and the floormats (tatami) made the place beautiful. The doors near the beds could open and there was a insect screen door. The view from those windows was amazing! A vegetable garden with green mountains further away. I was feeling like I was in a tent. It made me happy. We rented a car at Yuko rental cars. That was very good and nearby.

“Excellent and relaxing typical Japanese home”
Beautiful atmosphere genuine local. All equipped. Some essential information to tour the island at hand. Quiet and comfortable (just skip the western type bed and lay on the futons).

“Cedar house”
Very cute house with a pleasant atmosphere. Nice to experience living in an authentic Japanese house. The whole house is made of cedar, it smelled very nice. The kitchen and the pantry were fully equipped, very handy. The place had a private parking space which is very useful.
