Yoron Island, the Hidden Gem of the Amami Archipelago

When it comes to staying on Yoron Island, you’ve got a variety of options: from luxurious resort hotels to regular hotels, cozy guesthouses and inns, or even charming cottages. The choice is yours, depending on how you want to spend your time on this beautiful island.

If you’re looking to indulge in a high-end resort experience, there’s no place better than Pricia Resort Yoron. This Mediterranean-style resort, decked out in soothing whites and blues, offers the ultimate hotel life on a sprawling property. You can lounge on the private beach right in front of the resort, relax by the pool, or enjoy delicious seafood while gazing at the ocean from one of the various on-site restaurants.

For a more homely and traditional Japanese countryside experience, the guesthouse Hoshizunaso is a perfect choice. Located on the island’s eastern side, it has a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It’s an 10-minute walk to Akasaki Beach, where you can catch a breathtaking sunrise, and just a 5-minute drive to Oganeku Beach, the departure point for boats heading to the famous Yurigahama sandbar.
