宮之浦岳の登山で2泊お世話になりました。港からも近く、目の前にスーパーもあるのでとても便利です。高速船は時間によって宮之浦港と安房港出発に分かれるのでご注意ください。次回は間違えないようにします笑 大変お世話になりました!

21年11月滞在

3泊素泊まりで宿泊させていただきました。 最初の説明時こそ丁寧にお話しさせて頂きましたが、それ以外は基本自由に出入りできて、快適でした。 近隣のお店情報や、レンタルサイクルなどの情報も館内に貼ってあります。 登山で洗い物だらけになりましたが、洗濯機も無料で使え、対面にあるコインランドリーを使えば即日乾きます。あと、対面にあるスーパーが夜9時までやっているのもスゴく便利です!

素泊まりで2泊しました。6人グループで貸しきり状態だったので、気楽に過ごせました。電子レンジ、コーヒーメーカー、湯沸かしポットなど自由に使え、コーヒー豆も用意してくれて美味しいコーヒーを好きな時に飲めます。夜は持ち込みの焼酎を飲むのに氷も用意してくれました。

位置絕佳、CP值超高的民宿

位置在宮之浦港入口,右邊是觀光案內所,左邊是TOYOTA租車,對面是間大超市,營業到晚上10點,距離「宮之浦港入口」公車站牌約100公尺,位置絕佳。若搭飛機,民宿主人可以免費機場機送。有免費洗衣機可以使用,共用旅客專用中型冰箱。房間有WIFI,雖網速不是非常高,但還好用。唯一的缺點是隔音不是太好,木質地板走路會有聲音。

교통 최고, 저렴하고 깨끗한 숙소

미야노우라항에서 5분거리에 있어서 교통이 매우 편리합니다. 버스정거장도 근처에 있어서 관광지 이동도 편리해요. 숙소 현관쪽에 교통편 시간표도 붙어있어서 확인하기 좋습니다. 숙소 바로 앞에 큰 슈퍼마켓이 있어서 좋았어요! (단, 오후 늦게 가면 도시락이나 군것질 거리등은 빠르게 소진됩니다ㅠㅠ) 위치면에서는 별 5개로 아주 만족합니다. 시설은 민박집인걸 감안하면 꽤나 깔끔한 편입니다. 다다미 방이라 방이 조금 춥긴 했는데, 어차피 이불에 들어가면 따뜻하니까 저는 괜찮았어요. 제가 갔을때는 사장님 지인분이 계셨는데 친절히 맞아주셨어요. 추천추천

Highly recommended

This is a budget hotel, so you don't get en-suite. That said, all the facilities were available and clean. The owner was very helpful on our arrival and with advice about our next step: getting to the ferry. Speaking of which, this is extremely convenient for the ferry as, even with a large wheeled suitcase, it was an easy walk.

ただいまを言いたくなる屋久島のお家

普段はホテルを利用するのですが屋久島では民宿で正解でした! ご主人やスタッフさんはアットホームな雰囲気で接してくれて、 屋久島での自分のお家のように過ごせました!旅の終わりは移動の時間でバタバタでしたがお見送りまでして頂きました (^^)

Satisfait

L’hébergement est situé derrière l’office du tourisme ce qui présente un certain intérêt et à 5 min du ferry. La chambre est assez petite, on dort sur des tatamis, mais il y a la climatisation, et tout est calme. Les toilettes sont à l’etage et au Rdc, sdb au rdc. Notre hôte est aussi guide. Avec lui nous avons vu des éclosions de tortues.

地理位置便利无比

当你从轮渡下船,不管是4小时大船还是2小时高速船,记住,无需坐车,码头到这个民宿走路就能抵达,走到环岛大路,右转200米即达。民宿对面有非常不错的超市,东西很全,不贵,我买了海鲜饭吃。这里的老板叫kin-ji-sang;他胖乎乎的同伴或是侄儿叫kin-guo-sang,非常友好,最棒的是,他们民宿可以帮忙租到摩托车!!!打了电话,另外一家民宿的老板就会来接你,10分钟内。民宿隔壁就是丰田租汽车的店,隔壁的意思就是挨着的意思。洗澡和卫生间虽然是公用的,但很爽,水流猛烈啊。唯一的问题就是民宿挨着公路,岛上太安静,必须早睡,否则次日五点汽车经过的声音很大,别想睡懒觉啦!!

Close to ferry port

Great owner who is a soccer enthusiast. Very laid back, nice and friendly. There is one bathroom with bath tub that was always available when I needed it. Owner always checked weather for me to warn me if there is a possible ferry cancellation. Tourist info, supermarket and Toyota car rental are right next door. Highly recommend especially for first time visitors or the night before leaving the island.

Perfect Place to Stay in Yakushima

The place is perfect if you're new to Yakushima or a recurrent visitor. It is close to all of the things a traveler would hope for to make for a pleasant trip, i.e. across the street from a grocery store, a few blocks from some excellent restaurants, a half a block away from the boat landing, on the same block as the visitors center, etc.... The place itself is very nice, very comfortable and clean. The owner of the property is very knowledgeable of the island, and gave me some excellent trekking advice I would not have received had I stayed elsewhere. I highly recommend staying at KJ's place, and I hope to return again at some point.

Gute Unterkunft für wenig Geld

Super Location - gleich neben dem Hafen, wo die Fähre andockt und der Bus zu den wichtigen Orten hält gleich um die Ecke. Die Unterkunft ist sauber und gut ausgestattet. Der Eigentümer war super nett und hat uns bei der Planung unserer Wanderung geholfen.

미야노우라항 인근 깔끔하고 소박한 민박

등산, 자연체험을 목적으로 방문한 1~2명이 묵기에 좋았습니다. 위치는 항구에서 멀지 않고, 미야노우라항 지역에서 가장 큰 슈퍼마켓 바로 건너편이라 등산 준비를 하는데 좋았습니다만, 근처에 식당은 걸어서 10분정도 가야 있었습니다. 일본식 다다미방은 깔끔하게 관리가 잘 되었고 이불과 매트는 청결했지만, 매트 높낮이가 미묘하게 맞지 않아 약간 불편했었습니다. 하지만 전반적으로 환영하는 분위기와 정리정돈이 잘 되어있어 저렴하게 개인여행을 계획하는 분들에게 상당히 추천할만하다고 생각합니다.
