We were welcomed and seen off by our families!The accommodation was clean and had a nice interior!It's true that it's far from the downtown area, but because it's a quiet residential area, I was able to experience sounds that I wouldn't normally hear.You can go to the sea in just a few seconds from the inn! I was able to enjoy the very beautiful sea with a private charter!We were also able to borrow snorkels and life jackets for free, and we were able to see a lot of fish! Since I was traveling with children, it was nice to be able to take a shower and relax at the hotel right after getting out of the sea. I will also stay here when I travel to Amami Oshima!thank you very much! !

It was a very fun trip. While having a BBQ, I was given wild boar meat from a neighbor, which was an experience I wouldn't have had on a normal trip. The children were also very excited. The sea in front of us was also beautiful. It looks old from the outside, but the inside has been renovated to give it a very clean and stylish feel.I want to go again.

When staying with three people, the extra bed was made of piping and was too hard to sleep on.The only view you can see from the inn is the house.People who are right in front of the sea have different reviews.Are there many reviews from people with few reviews?I had high hopes based on all the good reviews.There is no bathtub, only a shower.To reach the nearby sea, you need to cross the main road, climb over a concrete wall, and go down an artificial staircase.It's narrow, there are no trees or plants, and the main area is stones, so it's more of a fishing spot than a beach. It's not a resort beach.Also, the atmosphere is different from the home page photo.I had high expectations because the price was high for a room without meals compared to other hotels, but...there were no child rates...adult rates.I have stayed in Amami Oshima many times, but this was not the best value for money. For this price, you can also get delicious local meals on Amami Oshima.Don't expect much from the sea, scenery, resort feel, location, or cost performance.

You can see many corals in the sea nearby. You can also pick up sea glass on the shore. Snorkeling equipment is also provided at the inn for your convenience. Sufficient supplies are also provided. It may take some time to go shopping, but if you're in a convenient location, you'll probably be looking for accommodation in the city from the beginning, so it's not a negative point. It would have been better if there was a simple chair in the shower room.

It was a memorable trip thanks to the kindness of the owner, his wife, and the neighbors.Since the structure is an old private house being used as is, it cannot be denied that the construction and airtightness are poor. I was able to enjoy a relaxing time that felt like I was back at home.

I stayed for three nights with my wife and two children. This is a very good accommodation and I highly recommend it.I felt like I was living in a village in a detached house.The main bed was king size and very comfortable. I was able to sleep properly on the sub-pipe bed. Furthermore, it was a bit difficult to sleep with just one extra futon.The beach in front of you doesn't look like a resort at first glance, but as soon as you put on your snorkel and swim for over 50 meters, you'll immediately see a beautiful coral reef.You can also rent snorkels and fins for free at the hotel, which is very helpful.You can also get tourist information from the owners (a very kind couple), so feel free to talk to them.

The coast was right in front of us and it was very nice.This time I stayed for one night, but next time I would like to stay for multiple nights. The owner was also very kind and helped me with various things.

It was a very nice hotel that was renovated by the owner from an old private house! It was a great combination of modern and old house atmosphere.Since we rented the whole house, I was able to spend some time with my family.The nearby sea was also very beautiful and we were able to see coral and many fish.

The room was very nice, but it bothered me a little that the owner showed up with a baby in tow during check-in and check-out.Even though you're on vacation, you end up feeling strange and unexpected.When I checked out, I was holding a baby in one hand and someone said to me, ``Today is garbage day, so I'm going to take out the garbage.Oh, please don't worry about it.'' However, in this situation, there was no way I wouldn't help. I can't go.I don't mind helping out, but please write in the information in advance that ``I am raising a child, so please only use this service if you understand,'' so that you don't suddenly show up with a baby and confuse me. Is it not possible to give guests a choice?Also, it doesn't matter that everyone in this world likes children.Have you ever thought about the fact that some people may be traveling while having a hard time having children?My opinion is in the minority, so I hesitated whether to post it, but this was the only part of my wonderful trip that I wasn't satisfied with, so I decided to post it because I thought there would be more than one opinion.

I stayed at Yamato-juku for 3 nights. On the first day, I didn't know where the inn was and got lost, but the owner couple met me on the road and I was able to reach the inn safely. After that, I went on a night tour and was happy to see 4 Amami rabbits. My mother was also moved when she saw me off on the way home.I am grateful that I was able to spend a pleasant time staying at Yamato-juku. thank you very much.
