Yuhai Anshu (Gulangyu Sunlight Rock Store)

Staying at Yuhai Anshu near Gulangyu's Sunlight Rock was an absolute delight. The view from the room was breathtaking—open sea and lush greenery stretching as far as the eye could see, making every morning feel like a peaceful escape. The front desk staff were incredibly warm and genuinely helpful, even offering to carry luggage up the stairs—a small but thoughtful gesture that made a big difference. What truly touched me was when the host found out it was my birthday—they surprised me with two boxes of pineapple cakes, which felt so personal and heartfelt. I’d spent weeks comparing options before choosing this place for my birthday getaway, and it turned out to be the perfect choice. If you're visiting Gulangyu, I highly recommend staying here for at least one or two nights. It’s not just about the location or the views—it’s the genuine care and attention to detail that makes the experience unforgettable.

Ludao Rongzhan · Chuijiao Lianying | Jinge Xunyang | Military Boutique Stay

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.
