We first visited this place 30 years ago during our honeymoon—just one night, but it left a lasting impression. Back then, the vast beach had only this garden villa, with its own private dock—so unique and iconic. Fast forward to today, we returned to relive those memories, and were amazed by how much the hotel has evolved. Now a three-story modern property with a swimming pool and full dining service, it’s no longer just for government officials’ retreats. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming—especially when we arrived with heavy luggage; the bellhop immediately stepped in to help carry our bags to the room. A special shout-out to the male restaurant manager, Xiao Lan, who greeted us with genuine enthusiasm. He personally handled all our meal arrangements over two days, and every dish was delicious and thoughtfully curated. The breakfast was outstanding—fresh seafood, steak, fruit, pastries, plus a wide variety of drinks and vegetables, truly on par with a five-star hotel. This anniversary trip exceeded all expectations. We’re already planning our next visit to Gulangyu—this is hands-down our top choice, not just for nostalgia but for the exceptional experience and value. Highly recommended!
Following the photos provided by the staff made finding the hotel super easy—right across from San Yi Tang, so it’s very easy to spot.

Navigating around Gulangyu is notoriously tricky, but the visual guidance really saved the day. The breakfast was thoughtfully prepared and incredibly delicious, and the afternoon tea set was a delightful bonus. Sipping tea in the second-floor garden felt like a peaceful retreat—perfect for unwinding and even saving money on coffee. Overall, this stay was exceptional from start to finish. The hospitality, attention to detail, and serene atmosphere make it a must-visit. Highly recommended!

I stayed in the attic room, which came with a spacious bathtub—ideal after a full day of city walking. Just soaking in it felt like a full reset. The private courtyard and rooftop terrace are stunning—each corner feels like a little escape. Simply sitting there, enjoying the breeze and views, was pure relaxation.

Just two stops on the BRT to reach Xiamen Railway Station—super convenient for early departures. The front desk staff went above and beyond: they gave us great local recommendations, upgraded our room without hesitation, and even packed a breakfast bag with fresh bread since we were leaving early. That kind of thoughtful service truly made our trip special. High-quality accommodations, excellent value, and genuine hospitality—it’s definitely a hotel I’d recommend and return to.
Our kids specifically asked to stay here — and we’re so glad they did! The room was fantastic, and even though it’s been two years since our last visit, it still feels brand new with clean, well-maintained furnishings. The only minor downside is the empty pool in the courtyard — it looks a bit bare without water, but adding some plants could really bring it to life. Still, the swing was a big hit — my kids were swinging non-stop and laughing their heads off! The location is super convenient, just a short walk from Sanqiutian Wharf, and the overall vibe is peaceful and charming.

My wish came true unexpectedly, and that little bit of magic instantly elevated the entire experience. Even better? I ended up bumping into one of my favorite TV hosts right here at the property—just a brief chat, but it added such a unique sparkle to my stay. The breakfast deserves its own spotlight. The house chef prepares a rich, savory rice noodle soup made from shrimp shells—deeply flavorful, silky, and so fresh it’s almost shocking. Waking up to this every morning was like a daily gift, setting the tone for energized, joyful days. I’ll admit, I was nervous about the steps on Gulangyu Island, especially with older family members. But after some research and local tips, I found two game-changers: first, disembark at Neicuowu Pier instead of Sanguantian—it’s closer and much flatter; second, if you’re traveling with seniors, take the alley just across from Red Pig Restaurant to avoid the steepest stairs. My 70-something mom navigated it effortlessly, and even younger travelers covered the final 50 meters in under three minutes. No hassle, no fatigue—just pure enjoyment. The interior design is quietly brilliant—light, airy, and full of subtle details that speak to real taste. There’s no clutter or over-the-top decoration, yet every corner feels intentional and cozy.

Lush greenery, soft sunlight filtering through trees, peaceful vibes—you could spend an entire day just sitting there, sipping tea and soaking in the slow rhythm of the island. From arrival to departure, the team went above and beyond with their care—from personalized recommendations to quiet help with directions. Their genuine warmth made me feel not just welcomed, but truly looked after. This place has already made it onto my list of must-return stays. If you're planning a visit to Gulangyu, don’t miss this one. It’s not just a place to sleep—it’s a memory in the making.

Stepping into the courtyard, sunlight filtered through the trees, painting golden patterns on the stone path. A young man in crisp attire was quietly trimming dead branches with focused precision—his movements deliberate yet gentle. When he turned toward me, his bright eyes and warm smile lit up his face like a mountain stream. 'Welcome! Hope you had a good journey,' he said, voice full of energy, carrying the fresh spirit of early morning air. This military-themed boutique stay felt less like a nostalgic museum and more like a vibrant home built by passion. The space is open and airy, immaculately clean—not sterile or cold, but alive with intention. White walls gleam, handrails shine like training equipment, even the potted hydrangeas have leaves so vividly green they look freshly washed. You can feel it: this order comes from someone who lives by high standards, guarding every detail with quiet dedication. Inside, the room continues the theme of clarity and comfort. The small balcony is pure magic—a pair of canvas chairs and a little wooden table, just enough to sit back and watch clouds drift by, listen to wind whispering through the trees, or simply breathe. The 2-meter-wide bed is solid and cozy, perfectly balanced between rugged style and softness. And the standout feature? That standalone white bathtub by the window. After a long day, sinking into warm water with a hint of pine fragrance—it’s instant peace. At night, lying on the balcony under an endless sky, the stars are so close you swear you can hear the universe breathing. Location-wise, it’s surprisingly convenient—major sights feel just around the corner, yet the moment you step back into the courtyard, everything slows down. It’s the perfect base for both adventure and retreat. Later that evening, I saw him sweeping fallen leaves again, carefully gathering them near the tree roots. In that quiet moment, something clicked: this beauty isn’t about history or nostalgia. It’s not preserved—it’s created. By a young soul fully present, pouring love into every corner. Staying here wasn’t just about resting—it was about feeling inspired, recharged, reminded that life can be both grounded and full of light. It’s not just a place to sleep; it’s a living poem about purpose, energy, and joy.
