A voice output device includes a voice output controller configured to determine, when a message reception unit receives a message, whether a start condition to be satisfied when a person intended to receive the message normally listens to voice in the predetermined space is satisfied, and cause a voice output unit to start voice output of the message when the start condition is satisfied and suspend voice output of the message when the start condition is not satisfied. The voice output is not immediately performed in response to a reception of a message but is performed only when the person intended to receive the message normally listens to the message, and the voice output of the message is suspended in other cases.
