I’ve passed by this hotel many times while visiting Judiaosha, and finally had the chance to stay here. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the beach. On sunny days, the view of the sea is absolutely stunning. I wish I could swim during winter, but it was a bit chilly, so I didn’t go in the water much. Still, just sitting by the window watching the waves was relaxing and peaceful. The resort-style design gives it a nice getaway vibe. My ocean-view room had excellent views—waking up to that sight alone made the trip worth it. During my stay, I ran into a small issue, but the housekeeping staff handled everything quickly and with great care. Special shoutout to Cherry—her service was outstanding. Friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The overall experience was fantastic, and I’d definitely come back. If you’re looking for a quiet, scenic escape near the beach, this place is a must-try.
