Tanegashima Iwasaki Hotel
8.9 (15 reviews)

Tanegashima Iwasaki Hotel ★★★

📍 3367 Kukinaga, Minamitane

"You can see the "Elephant Drinking Water" from your room. It was in the guidebook and I had listed it as a candidate for a place I wanted to go to, but I didn't even leave the hotel and it was right on the beach right in front of the hotel. I didn't expect it to be this close without wasting time visiting. Surfers were enjoying surfing in the sea in front of us, but on this day the waves were small and they seemed to be having a hard time surfing. The sunrise I could see from the window was dyed in various shades of pink, making me feel like I was in a fairytale world."

Tanegashima Minshuku Yuyu
9.6 (6 reviews)

Tanegashima Minshuku Yuyu ★★★

📍 1863-49 Nakanoshimo, Minamitane

"Great place to stay if you are travelling through Tanegashima and are spending time in or around Minamitane. Many good restaurants are within walking distance, and the owner was very nice, providing helpful tips for travelling around Tanegashima. The backyard is also a great place to do some stargazing, and the room I had was able to head directly to it. Breakfast served was also very good; a homestyle japanese style breakfast."

Tanegashima Iwasaki Hotel ★★★
"Possibly the best hotel on Tanegashima. The pink exterior is very eye-catching. The room windows offer panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and the Elephant Drinking Rock. Dinner was surprisingly delicious, and breakfast was a buffet; the hygiene was better than expected. The hotel has a wonderful sense of seclusion, located on the south side of Tanegashima. Apart from the sound of the waves, it's very quiet, and taking a walk on the beach at night to gaze at the stars is a truly special experience."

Sandal Wood ★★★
"I'd been interested in this lodging for many years, and after canceling twice due to COVID-19, this was my third visit. As it's the only lodging on the island, I imagined it would be more of a pension-style establishment, but it turned out to be a fine boutique hotel, and I was very satisfied with my three nights. We stayed in a premium twin room, and while the semi-open-air bath was a given, the breakfast and dinner were excellent. Normally, I'd stick to breakfast and enjoy the local cuisine, but this time, the first day coincided with Obon, so I was forced to add dinner just for that day, and I was delighted with the variety and volume of the food. The freshly squeezed passion fruit sour was also excellent. Everyone at the lodging was kind and welcoming, and it was a very pleasant stay. I look forward to returning."

Tanegashima Minshuku Yuyu ★★★
"The accommodation was comfortable and had all the facilities you would expect. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Due to bad weather, transportation on the way there did not go as planned, but they accommodated changes to our meals. The weather was also bad on the way back, but they predicted whether transportation would run based on the wind and wave forecast. The food was also delicious, and they talked to us during meals, which was very enjoyable. They taught us a lot about the island, and we are very grateful."

Shimayado Hope ★★★
"The owner is very, very friendly. After eating at Nishinoomote on the night of check-in, I drove back to the B&B in the pouring rain and used it. It took twice as long to get back. When we arrived, it was already past 11 o'clock. The owner of the house was already asleep. We rang the bell to wake her up to get the key. I was really, really sorry, but the owner didn't lose his temper and clearly informed us that we needed to get the key. The things you pay attention to are really professional and I appreciate it very much. If you have the opportunity to go to Tanegashima, it is an accommodation worth considering."
