Samana Hotel Yakushima
Yakushima, Kagoshima, Japan · Independent · Accessible Luxury
Samana Hotel Yakushima hangs on the ocean cliffs of Yakushima, a UNESCO island, with contemporary rooms set against ancient island nature. Sankara takes the forest hill; Samana takes the drop to the sea. It is the same island but a different edge: cedar inland, and the Pacific under the balcony. Rain is frequent, and the island is famous for it.
