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 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.

Super friendly hosts. Early check-in was possible, and he even gave us a lift to the Shiratani Unsuikyo Hiking Trail because we didn't have a car. The view of the ocean is also stunning! (If you stay on Yakushima longer than one day, I do recommend renting a car because busses don't go everywhere, only once per hour I think and stop pretty early in the evening.)

It’s a very tasteful building and the interior is beautifully decorated. The owner did a great job making the guests’ stay as convenient and comfortable as possible. There are 2 big jacuzzi and showers (as well as toilets). I came here after 3 days of trekking in the mountains and this place was heavenly. It really felt like a proper vacation. The female staff who greeted me was a kind-hearted and accommodating person who explained everything to me. Her breakfast was absolutely yummy! Thank you so much, my tired body could rest thanks to you! I’d like to come here again next time 🥰
