What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Lovely Dining Experience

The food at Sankara is simply really good. I particularly enjoyed the exquisite dining experience at the Okas restaurant, where the 'Marinated Mackerel with Passion Fruit' was a standout dish. The artistic menu combined with fantastic wine pairings made each meal nice. Breakfast was an elaborate buffet with homemade smoothies and freshly baked bread, perfect for starting the day right!

Relaxing Spa Treatments

The spa at Sankara was a good haven of tranquility. I indulged in various treatments, which allowed me to completely unwind. One particular treatment involved a beautiful ritual with dried cedar leaves that left me feeling rejuvenated. I highly recommend taking the time to explore their spa offerings during your stay.

Luxurious Room Amenities

The room I stayed in was magnificent, larger than I ever expected. It featured a huge indoor hot tub that made my stay even more enjoyable. The bathroom was spacious and beautifully designed, stocked with luxurious Thann toiletries. The complimentary drinks, including refreshing Yakushima water, were a nice touch that made me feel pampered.

Impressive Bathroom Features

The bathroom in my villa was truly impressive-it was large, featuring a Japanese-style design along with a modern shower. The luxurious soaking tub was perfect for winding down after a long day of exploring the island. I felt like I was in a private spa, surrounded by elegance and comfort.
