  Nos gustó mucho

  Desde la primer toma de contacto vía e-Mail, el trato y apoyo por parte del Staff el Hotel fue buenísimo. Una delicia te entiendan bien en inglés cuando intentas reservar un hotel fuera de las grandes ciudades de Japón. No sólo fue fácil reservar sino que nos ayudaron con la reserva del barco para llegar hasta aquí. El hotel es sin duda alguno el mejor de la isla. Dispone de todo lo necesario para relajarte y pasar unos días de relax o buen de aventura por la isla maravillosos. Nos alojamos en la Samudra Villa con tres personas y es espaciosa, vistas bonitas al mar y a la naturaleza. Suelos y muebles nobles. Milibar a nuestra disposición y sin costé alguno. Baño completo en mármol blanco macael y a destacar los amenities que son muy buenos pero a parte es el primer lugar que nos encontramos que pone unas maquinillas de afeitar de cuchilla a disposición del huésped y que al menos mis chicos supiero agradecer y mucho. Techos altos, dos ventiladores, cama de día, TV plasma, escritorio, albornoces, zapatillas de interior y exterior. Te llevan y recogen en cochecitos de Golf siempre que quieras. Disponen de room service y al menos en nuestro casó incluía desayunos y cenas, que por cierto! Felicidades al chef. Comida com toque Mediterráneo, cosa que no se encuentra demasiado en Japón y después de 15 días por aquí se agradece. Aceite de oliva, cubiertos, pan!!! :) una delicia. Tiene una piscina deliciosa con vistas al mar y a la montaña. Gimnasio completo y un estupendo SPA. Además dispone de una biblioteca preciosa en la cual a parte de lectura puedes disfrutar de una bebida gratuita hasta las 5 de la tarde. Ya sea un café, te, u otra cosa. Si lo deseas hasta te puedes fumar un puro cubano. Que decir del personal que hace lo posible por complacerte en cada momento y te deja encantada de la vida. Hemos pasado dos días muy buenos en este hotel que recomendamos muchísimo para tu estancia en Yakushima.

  Fabulous hotel on amazing island

  We stayed for 4 nights in November. Yakushima is an amazing island and was a great change of pace on our Japan trip. While it was very rainy (as somewhat expected) we still managed to explore the island and its nature. The hotel is fabulous and the staff (including Nobu and Aki) went above and beyond making us feel welcome and ensuring we enjoy our stay. Food at Ayana was great as well, though we didnt get to experience their restaurant Okas. Being able to rent a car from the hotel was very convenient and allowed us to explore the island. If you want to treat yourself, Sankara is the place to stay on Yakushima.

  Could easily be an Aman

  Sankara is an incredible property on an amazing island. It is a peaceful, serene and supremely comfortable hotel with wonderful food. We stayed 3 nights in a Sankara Villa Suite, which - at 104 square meters - was clean, spacious and tastefully furnished and adorned. The amenities were top notch - everything from the toothbrush, moisturizing cream to in-room treats were of very high quality, showing that Sankara definitely does not skimp on the details. The hardware throughout the entire resort was equally tasteful and to a very high standard. It was modern in functionality but muted and earthly in tone, giving it a great sense of place and not dominating the incredible landscape that it's a part of. Service was warm and attentive, and was representative of Japan's "Omotenashi" ethos taken to the highest levels. Nothing was impossible, including the ability to rent a vehicle directly from Sankara on an hourly basis (not cheap, but neither is the hotel itself.) Sankara is a property that would be among the best in Aman's portolio, but raises the bar with its incredible food & beverage (something that is somewhat lacking in quite a few Amans.) The various bread offerings during breakfast at Ayana is one of the highlights - you'll just have to taste it to believe it. But the true shining star is the dinner experience at Okas. What everyone says is right; it really ought to have a Michelin star. We were initially intending to have one dinner there (on the first night), but wound up going every evening. The dishes in the tasting menu are completely different every day, and even though it is European inspired, it is not at all rich, saucy and heavy. Rather it's very much Japanese in that they do an amazing job at bring out the flavors of the incredible seasonal Japanese ingredients taken from both land and sea. The food offerings are as tasty as they are innovative. We just might consider going back to Sankara just for the dining experience, which is saying a lot given the crazy amount of awesome food options available throughout Japan. Yakushima Island is enchanting, unique and unbelievably green. We visited for the nature (especially the hiking), but Sankara contributed to a "complete" experience.

  First trip in Yakushima

  I had a really good time in Yakushima, especially in this resort. The staff are really friendly and kind. The highlight while staying here is probably the dinner they provided here was really decent and delicious. I would definitely come back again in the near future.

  One of the best in Japan for sure!

  Its a wonderful space to be relaxed and recharged the energy. The service is so reliable, and also the quality of the restaurant is as good as in the top restaurant in Tokyo. Love this hotel, I hope to come back shortly!
