Sankara Hotel & Spa Yakushima

This hideaway an auberge-style resort & spa is situated at the ocean front and on the heights of Yakushima, which was declared World Natural Heritage Site in 1993. It is the first World Heritage Site in Japan. The Studio Ghibli animation, Hayao Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke is based on the forests of Yakushima which has ancient trees. The guests are served delicate cuisine with carefully selected local ingredients from the Kyushu.

The first rule of onsen hot springs etiquette is that swimsuits are not allowed. If the thought of being naked worries you, or for those guests who feel reluctant to bathe in the presence of others, we recommend choosing accommodations with private onsen such as chartered family outdoor baths (reservations required) or guest rooms with open-air baths.
