Just the best! That's one word.I don't know where to start explaining it, but it's just the best (I'll say it twice because it's important)We attended the wedding with children.They fulfilled all of our requests, and we were able to have a wonderful wedding just for us (it was very hot in the middle of summer, but I still have fond memories of that).I love hotels and have stayed in many places, including overseas, but this place truly deserves a perfect score of 120!The owner's hospitality, his wife's delicious food and bento boxes, the luxurious and clean private space, all-you-can-eat and drink, etc.I would definitely stay there again.Thank you so much!

I stayed here for my honeymoon in early July.Of all the hotels I have stayed at so far, this hotel is by far the best in terms of satisfaction.Yakushima is a place where it rains a lot, and when we stayed there, the weather wasn't kind, so unfortunately we couldn't see the Jomon cedars.I can assure you that you will have a fulfilling time even if you spend the whole time relaxing in the hotel.There is no end to the good things you can write down, such as the view from the room, the delicious food, the clean hotel you can rent out, the friendliness of the staff, etc.Above all, I think there is no other hotel that can surpass this hotel in terms of the quality of its service.Even after the trip, my wife and I often talk about how we want to go to Shizuku again (lol).I would definitely use it again.thank you very much!

I completely understand how other people feel, ``I don't want them to become too famous'' (;_;) lolThe best thing about it is that it can be reserved for one group, and that's why I don't want it to become too famous. .When I first came up with the search, I thought the price might be too rich for me.If you look closely, check in at 9am and check out at 5pm? ! Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.If this is your first time hearing "all-inclusive" (apparently it means everything is included in the price), thenIsn't it too rich? Rather...So I made a reservation. The result was "Awesome...!! I'll definitely come again...!!(;_;)♡"The rooms are clean, the food is delicious, and the owner is friendly ◎They picked me up at the port, guided me around during my stay (they also lent me a car, so I didn't need a rental car), and drove me back to the port on my way back...I have never received such service. .I learned after going there that it seems to be popular for weddings as well.It seems that the wedding ceremony of the couple is being held surrounded by the forests of Yakushima. That's niceWhen I went there, I realized that Shizukunomori doesn't over-promote such a wonderful service by saying, "Come and visit!"It's a wonderful inn, but it's sad that it's difficult to make reservations lolI will definitely go again!

I used it for a wedding ceremony for two people.As for my impressions, I can't think of any words other than the best.We had a variety of requests for the wedding, and they listened to all of them with great care, and we were able to have the wedding ceremony in the beautiful forest of Yakushima on their premises. Is the dress or tuxedo made to order the right size? I was worried at first, but when I tried it on, it was perfect! I was surprised at how well finished it was.Every dish is made with great care and attention and is delicious! It was so delicious that I ended up having to refill it many times.Is it okay? I was so worried about it later...The owners and staff are all great! The owner has a great sense of humor and is very fun to talk to. Also, the hospitality is amazing and they will go to such lengths! ? There were many surprises during my stay.I have stayed at various inns and hotels, but nowhere else have I been as satisfied as I am here.I stayed at other hotels during my trip to Yakushima, but next time I come to Yakushima, I will definitely stay at Shizukunosha!During my stay, I was moved by so many things that I can't even write about them here. I would definitely like to visit you again. Thank you very much for your help!

Large trunks can be delivered in advance, and transportation is available from the ferry. You can rent out the entire building, or rather, you don't have to worry about other guests on the premises, and you can enjoy luxurious and delicious meals like a restaurant with carefully selected ingredients, and you can tell us your preferences. You can prepare it at a time that suits you as much as possible, and they will accompany you and guide you through the sightseeing, so you don't have to do anything that takes time.I was able to enjoy the best of both inside and outside the hotel, and the service was excellent and worth the price.

Only one group will be allowed in each day, so you can spend time inside the facility without wearing a mask. The staff will provide maximum support depending on the purpose of your trip.The rooms are quiet and there are plenty of free sweets.The food is also delicious.

This is a private hotel located in Miyanoura, Yakushima.To be honest, I can't compare Shizuku no Mori to any hotel experience I've had in the past.Writing this review is probably the same as writing a spoiler for a good movie, so I'll be very modest, but...・Located in a vast forest with a mountain stream where you can take a walk・The facility is spacious, clean, and comfortable!・You can stay for almost 2 days with check-in at 9am and check-out at 5pm the next day.・Everything served at the meal is delicious.・All-inclusive meal, snacks, and drinks included・You can also rent a car, so there is no need to rent a car.・During your stay, the owner will take care of you in a way that is neither too close nor too far away.Anyway, this hotel is full of hospitality and allows you to experience Yakushima even if you come to Yakushima with just your body.My only regret is that the accommodation was so comfortable that I didn't want to leave the hotel even though I had come to Yakushima (lol).It's more like a place to go to Yakushima to spend time in Shizuku no Mori than an accommodation facility when you go to Yakushima, and when I talked to the owner, I heard that there are many long-term guests who use it as a second home.Weddings are also held there, so many people come here for both their wedding and honeymoon.Personally, I feel at ease knowing that everything is taken care of from the time I enter Yakushima to the time I leave, so I would like to gift my elderly parents a stay at Shizuku no Mori someday.

I don't think you'll ever understand how good this place is unless you stay there. I plucked up the courage to stay there and it was a great decision. It feels like home by the time you leave.
