Reviews of Kyukamura Ohkunoshima 4 stars

Spacious room, great buffet and breakfast. Nice staff.

Bunny island is a great excursion and quite fun. The bunnies prefer to come out at night so plan around that. Also coming out at night are the wild boars, and the cycle of life is on full display. The hotel has a little gift shop that has some cute items for reasonable costs. The little snack stand does a great job. The buffet for main meals is quite satisfying! The family style rooms allow for our family of 5 to use one room!

Communal baths only! As a foreigner we missed this detail and we weren't quite prepared for that cultural experience. The hotel and resort style island look like they were once a wonderful escape, but time has not been friendly and very little has been done for upkeep and maintenance. Do not expect a 5 start hotel!

1. Rabbits are all over there! 2. Public bathtub is good. 3. Free activity.

1. This is the only hotel on the island, so food can be better, we have no other choice....... 2. The biulding and room are old, however the hotel fee is really expensive... 3. Rented bicycle need to be renew, especially kid bicycle, it is hard to ride, and we still need to paid for it.

The experience of staying on Rabbit Island, the kids loved it. The experience of staying in a Japanese style hotel. Good buffet dinner and breakfast.

Hotel is not the newest and needs a renovation.

The buffet style dinner is very good, it comes with a lot of food choices, incl but not limited to, sashimi and hot dishes made with local ingredients

Location

I was not aware it was no options except for the floor mat and the onson for bathing . They need to include a western option of a bed and full bathroom with shower in a room Also, it is a bit outdated and really needs to be renovated. The property has potential for being a nice resort, but it is definitely outdated.

Breakfast was large and there was a lot of choices.

The building is old and has a musky smell. It takes some getting used to sleeping on the ground. The AC is difficult to keep controlled as the room temperature can fluctuate. The bunnies are generally out at dusk and dawn and into the evening and not so much during the day. The hike is strenuous. They ask you to take your trash with you.

Just as others have said, this was truly the highlight of my trip to Japan. I felt immersed in the culture in such a real and personal way. The bunnies made us feel like we were walking through a movie set, the peaceful scenery was incredibly inviting, and the buffet food exceeded all expectations—especially for a seafood lover like me! Staying in the traditional Japanese-style accommodations was such a unique experience. It came with a bit of a learning curve—figuring out how to set up the futons, care for the tatami floors, and wear the yukatas (which many locals wore to the buffet)—but it made everything feel that much more special. My only regret? Not staying longer for exploring the beauty of the island... shrines, trails, history. This place definitely deserves a return visit.

I don’t have anything negative to say, but a few tips might be helpful for future guests. While the facilities are a bit dated, the charm of the place lies in how authentically Japanese it feels—far from the typical tourist experience. The shuttle aligns with the ferry schedule, but if you miss it, the walk is actually quite enjoyable. I truly hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did!

Just in the island of rabbit island, we come to the hotel twice and have happy memories.

The rabbits are well taken care of by locals and are super friendly. The front desk and dining staff were very nice.

The lobby area and dining area are fine. The hallways are dreadful, with stains and awful smells. It was honestly the worst maintained property I've seen and that includes budget hotels in the US. If we weren't trapped by the ferry we might have left. The outside of the resort, I can only describe as a resort from the 80s that has been left in its former state with no maintenance or activity: abandoned swimming pool, overgrown tennis courts, etc. If you have seen Lost, it felt like the Others camp was abandoned 30 years ago, and then suddenly they started renting rooms with no remodel. If you come here arrive as late as possible and leave as early as possible, the bunnies sleep during the day anyway. I have no photos of the property i don't want to remember. I was excited for this place.

Everything! This was a highlight of our trip to Japan. While the facility itself is a little older, it is clean and well kept. The staff were so kind and many spoke English if that is something you need. They had activities at night (in Japanese but with English handouts) which I appreciated and were so friendly and kind. The buffets for breakfast and dinner were really good and had lots of options. I’d absolutely stay here again!

The rabbits are really cute and will crowd you and ask for food, I highly recommend sitting on the floor to be as close to them as possible. The breakfast and dinner in the hotel were amazing.

I wish the show they did at night had english support.

Location, buffet breakfast & dinner, onsen.

Run down, outdated furniture. Hallway and room had a musty, foul smell. Cobweb in corner of the room. Dirty windows made the view unattractive.

Excellent hotel surrounded by many cute friendly rabbits. Tasty buffet dinner, breakfast and onsen included. Room was big with comfy beds. Staff spoke good english. Regret not staying for 2 nights. Our room looked better than in pictures.

Quite pricy

Bunnies and the hotel were comfortable, and they have all you need, even the cell phone charger (if you forget it) Also, I liked the history!

There is not a shop for buying food for bunnies

Amazing dinner and breakfast buffet. It’s a little dated but we all agreed was a really cool experience staying on the island overnight. Beautiful scenery. Amazing views from rooms

No private showers available so have to use the onsen. Didn’t bother me however something to consider.
