HUMBLE HALL
I finally made it to Humble Hall on Gulangyu Island, and wow—this place truly stole my heart from the moment I arrived. The atmosphere is serene and warm, with a quiet elegance that immediately sets the tone. While the building’s history is fascinating, what really stood out was the exceptional attention to detail in service. Before arriving on the island, I was welcomed into a dedicated support group that helped confirm my check-in time and provided a helpful guide. As soon as I stepped off the boat, a personal concierge met me at the dock with a refreshing winter melon tea and took care of my luggage—such a thoughtful touch. Check-in was smooth and welcoming, with hot tea and tea biscuits served right away. Stepping into my room felt like entering a carefully curated sanctuary: vintage-style keys, handcrafted ceramics, and furniture with character. On the desk sat a handwritten welcome card, tucked under a natural stone—a small but meaningful gesture. Hidden within were several delightful surprises: 1. A personalized walking map of the island. 2. A pair of handmade afternoon teas—yes, the chiffon cake was absolutely heavenly, light and fluffy with just the right amount of sweet, paired perfectly with rich, salty cream. It might be one of the best cakes I’ve ever had! The pudding was a bit too sweet for my taste, so a slight reduction could elevate it even further. 3. A breakfast experience blending local flavors with an all-you-can-eat buffet—especially loved the yogurt. 4. Warm milk delivered before bedtime (and extra festive touches during New Year’s Eve: hot red wine and roasted cotton candy—so cozy!). 5. An immersive tea culture workshop called ‘Er San Cong,’ where I learned about traditional tea preparation in a beautifully intimate setting. Every little thing felt intentional—from the thoughtful amenities to the quiet moments of connection. This isn’t just a hotel; it’s an experience that lingers long after you leave. If you’re looking for something special, authentic, and deeply memorable, this is it.
XIANDENGHUA HOTEL
This trip to Xiamen was truly a perfect match of timing, location, and people—arriving during the most pleasant season and stumbling upon this hidden gem of a guesthouse. The moment I stepped in, I knew it was special: warm, welcoming staff, thoughtful touches everywhere, and an atmosphere that feels like pure good luck. I’d been dreaming about a specific room before my trip and even felt a bit disappointed when I couldn’t book it—but then, upon check-in, I was surprised with a complimentary upgrade! 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. And the courtyard? Absolutely dreamy. 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.

The next morning, I tried to sleep in but was disturbed by ongoing construction noise. Instead of just ignoring it, the front desk proactively offered to stop the work if it bothered me—I just needed to message them.
