Offering a shared lounge and quiet street view, Guesthouse Ama Terrace is situated in Amami, 500 metres from Tomori Beach and 7.3 km from Amami Park.

I loved everything about this guesthouse. The beds are super comfortable and they have a fully stocked kitchen with all the utensils. They even have seasoning that guests can use. The guesthouse offered airport pickup and drop off. The gentleman who picked us from the airport even took us to the supermarket to buy groceries before we checked in. He was very kind and made sure we felt welcome 🤗. This is the very best place to stay when you visit Amami island. It's walking distance to Tomori beach and a clean guest house with good vibes.

Situated within 1.2 km of Tomori Beach and 5.9 km of Amami Park, 奄美ゲストハウス宇宿サンライズビーチ provides rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Amami.

The owner runs the place alone, but he still went all the way to the airport to pick me up. Despite my very limited Japanese ability, we were able to communicate quite well.. But the most important thing was he helped me rent a small scooter that I surely would not be able to rent without a local person vouching for me. This made my Amami trip really unforgettable and I'm forever grateful for the help I have received here! Also the evening of tasting local shōchū and stargazing was amazing. I will be back!

Situated in Amami in the Kagoshima region with Asani Beach nearby, Famale Only Dormitory Guest House Amami Long Beach2 Vacation STAY 37994v offers accommodation with free private parking.

The hosts were a family of hospitable, kind, and humourous people! Rika was so generous and gave us a lift to Ohama beach. We rented snorkels for 400 yen from them as well, which was awesome. The building and rooms seem newly built and the beds are super comfortable and clean, and I love the star cutouts. The balconies have a cute view of forest and town.

    The house itself was an experience of the Japanese way of life. Very typical. The location is fantastic for those who want to go to the beach - especially for snorkelling enthusiasts. Tomori beach in particular is just 5 min away by car and one of the best on the island. Finally, the hosts are living next door and are the most amazing couple. They were so welcoming and warm. We will never forget this stay!

    Cheap and cheerful. Lovely staff. Tiny room but it's at a great location to get the A-Line ferry that leaves early in the morning and the ferry terminal is a literal stones throw away.

    Wonderful host, very kind and helpful. Great location for birdwatchers, several of the endemics on our doorstep and close to Yuwan-dake.

    Splendid hosts who matched my tastes in a guest house! Fully engaged, Kami explained house protocols and what I was eating. Introduced me to relevant sights in Amami, both great ambassadors for hospitality. Would stay again.

    The hosts are super nice people! It's more staying in a family than in a guest house. I'll definitely come back!

    It was lovely to stay in an authentic Japanese house. Despite the language problem...we cannot speak any Japanese..our hosts were charming and arranged a taxi to the airport for us. Good location, very close to a bus route and supermarket and in a quiet residential area.
