Felt very homely, was basic but clean, comfortable and right next to the airport. The owner, Satomi さん, was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the stay, helping to plan the best places to go as well as transport and making homemade onigiri for hikes.

Everything about Luana House was exceptional, hands down our best guest house in our month-long trip to Japan! Our hosts were the warmest, most caring I've ever met and the house just had amazing vibes, along with an incredible deck with sea view. Make sure to book at least a dinner on site, the food is excellent!

The owners of la Isla tasse are amazing. They readily give you recommendations of the trails to do on Yakushima, the busses to take, the restaurants around etc .. Once I missed the bus and the owner drove me to the place without hesitation. He also drove me to a place where I could rent gear for my hike. The atmosphere in the house is quiet but you can easily get in touch with the other guests and talk to the owners in the large living room on the ground floor. It's very clean and the owners give the place a personal touch by putting little flower bouquets in the bathroom etc. The breakfast can be booked additionally and is very nice! They don't speak much English but use Google translate effortlessly. I really enjoyed my stay here and will definitely come back.
