The cottages are very cute and comfortable. Also the kitchen is well equipped. We made breakfast every morning. The owner of the property is very friendly, professional and helpful. He made a reservation for us at the sushi restaurant Iso no kari ,which was amazing and very authentic. Also the Slow pasta restaurant was very good. They both are 10-15 walk from the property.

We loved the eclectic French theme of the design of our cottage, and the carefullly curated furnishings. All the cottages and other structures in the premises have been purposefully designed with a faux antique theme by the owner. The entire facility is tucked away from the main road, and is very quiet and charming. The owner is extremely personable and friendly. It was a pleasure getting to know him and his wife. I would strongly recommend this place for anyone looking for a quiet vacation spot to relax, or for a romantic getaway.

Excellent stay on a beautiful island

What a delightful stay! This was absolutely perfect for my time on Yakushima, and exceeded my expectations. The owner was very welcoming, speaks excellent English, and clearly takes pride in the property, which is in a quiet and scenic spot but a short drive from town and convenient to arrival/departure points. Communication before my arrival was also great. Everything was clean, just as pictured, and well stocked. The beds were probably the most comfortable I slept in during my time in Japan (key after long days of hiking!). The cottage was spacious and I appreciated the small kitchen as dining options on the island are somewhat limited. Laundry was very convenient too. No complaints at all and I highly recommend a stay here!

My experience at Cottage Morinokokage was fantastic. The kindness and hospitality of Mr. Nakashima cannot be understated. The cottage was pleasant, comfortable, and full of every amenity we wanted (plus more). Mr. Nakashima helped us book our car rental, which was an essential part of the island experience for us. Getting to come and go as needed and stock up the car with hiking supplies was incredibly helpful. We also leaned on him for reservations for dinner and to a chopstick making class near the airport. Yakushima is a truly special place and Cottage Morinokokage was an essential part of the experience.

I felt like I was in a cabin and had a porch to sit outside and drink coffee in the morning. There is a bus stop close by. I did walk to Anbo, it was about 35 minutes. The gentleman who owned the property was very accommodating and spoke English. I liked the wood beams and chandelier.

建物の可愛らしさで瞬時に決定しましたけど、アメニティも充実していて、リネンもルームウェアも肌触りの良いものでした。スタッフの皆様も明るく親切で心地よい距離感で素敵な時間が過ごせました。一戸一戸内装が違うと思いますけど、私のお部屋はシャンデリアのある女性なら喜ぶ装飾が随所に施されていて素敵でした。ランドリー施設もあり、山や海に出かける方も便利です。ゴミの分別が少し難しいですけど、エコを意識する良い機会でした。もちろん客室は清潔で冷暖房や空気清浄機などホテル並みの設備があって、お風呂は湯船と洗い場が別の広々したものでした。疲れた体を癒せます。ベッドのマットもエアウィーヴみたいな寝心地でした。使わなかったけどハンモックもありました♪

Wi-Fiが殆ど繋がらなかった。私の落ち度で人数を2ではなく1に設定してしまったが、追加料金が高すぎる。1人分の追加料金が一泊一万円以上だった。 なぜ通常予約よりも高いかの説明もなかった。 同じ料金を支払った友人の部屋が多く払った私達よりクオリティが高かった。 マットレスは良かった。

スタッフの方々が明るく接客していただき、安心してすごすことができました。 デザイン性の高いコテージで、自然に囲まれ、 それでいて清潔感が保たれていました。 虫などもあまり気にならず、手入れがなされていると思います。　 帰りはアイコンタクトが入らず、5分ほど遅れてしまったのですが、遅れてしまうと延長料金2000円とのことなので気を付けて準備しましょう。 金額も考えるとかなりコスパも良いし、それでいて清潔感のあるコテージに周囲の騒音を気にせず泊まることができるのでかなりオススメです！

スタッフの方がとても親切です

海外でロードトリップする際に泊まるモーテルに似ている。これにアミューズメントパークのようなかわいいたたずまいがプラスされているイメージ。 各室が独立したコテージなので玄関前まで車を乗りつけられるのが、大きな荷物を持っている際便利。 部屋によると思うが外にデッキがあり、ハンモックが準備されている。このデッキで食事をすることもできるし滞在時間をのんびり楽しむこともできる。 また、スタッフの方がとてもフレンドリーで親切であることを特筆したい。観光やおすすめのお店のことなども教えてくれるし、トレッキング後には「くつ乾燥機を持って行こうか」と声をかけてくださった。

シャビーシックな建物！お部屋！インテリア！装飾！とにかく全部が可愛くて感動しました。 いつかこんな家に住みたい…と何度言ったことか。オーナーさんのこだわりが詰まったお部屋で本当に素敵でした。 お風呂付きのお部屋にしましたが、トイレやお風呂も綺麗で◎ 朝食としてパンを無料で頂けたのがありがたかったです。毎朝インスタントの紅茶とパンで朝ごはんinテラスをして楽しみました。共用スペースに飲み物と食べ物(カップ麺やおつまみ類)の自販機、電子レンジ、トースターがあって、毎朝トーストしたパンを食べてました。おいしかったです。 洗濯機も別の共用スペースにあって、無料で利用できます。アクティビティ後に汚れた衣類を洗えてよかったです。 3泊しましたが毎日備品の補充や清掃は入ってくださいました。帰ってきたらクーラーをつけてくださっていたのが、ささやかながらも気遣いを感じて嬉しかったし、常に快適でした。 備え付けのハンモックに乗るのも楽しかったです。 立地的に、近くにスーパーやコンビニはありませんが事前に分かっていたので特に困りませんでした。最寄りのバス停は宿から徒歩10分ほど。そのバス停から空港にも行けます。レンタカーがあったらまず問題なし。なくても、アクティビティ系はわりと宿に送り迎えしてくれたので全然困りませんでした。 (森のこかげさんは全く関係ありませんが、屋久島でATMといえば郵便局らしく、現金は下ろしてちゃんと持っていくべき！ちょっとその辺のコンビニATMで…なんていうのは無理です。) とにかくオーナーさんが優しくて親切で、あたたかい気持ちになりました。 今回の旅行で屋久島が大好きになったし、森のこかげさんも大好きになったので、また屋久島に来てまた森のこかげさんに泊まりたいなと思っています。 ありがとうございました。
