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, ゲストハウスナゼ features a balcony. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking.

This is simply a stunning home and an incredibly comfortable retreat on Amami. We visited in the height of summer and greatly valued the excellent A/C. A great kitchen makes self-catering a breeze; the serene tatami room (sleeps 4) is lovely and the futons and bedding were comfortable and freshly laundered. The balcony is lovely but Amami in July was too hot to want to be outside. The owners (who live next door) are lovely, great communication, very kind and friendly. They dont speak English but have a translation device. Location is great, a quiet spot just off the main trunk road and walking distance to restaurants and a big supermarket (also an easy 2 minutes by car). Good parking for a small K car or hatchback. Good wifi. We really liked the place and if we ever go back to Amami we will stay here. Thank you to the owners for a wonderful stay in your beautiful home.

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 host of this accommodation is such a calm, relaxed and nice guy that will make you feel like home immediately. The view from the shared living room is also great. Such a cool vibe to sit there and eat together with the other travelers.

    Had everything we needed. Aircon was cool we could cook and do our laundry. There was a good amount of space to spread out. The staff were kind and responded quickly to any questions. We were even given a list of shops in advance as the house is in a very local area. Very quiet and green. Amami is a beautiful island and the locals are friendly.
