Staying at this place was a great experience overall. The room was clean, well-maintained, and had all the essentials we needed. The balcony offered stunning sea views—perfect for watching the sunrise and sunset. It’s also very convenient for getting around; we took the metro to explore nearby spots without any hassle. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance, so dining options were excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We were hoping to use the Zhuyanji photography pass, but unfortunately it was fully booked when we tried to reserve it (you need to book at least one day in advance). Still, despite that small disappointment, the quality of the stay made up for it. Highly recommend this hidden gem if you're looking for a peaceful yet well-connected getaway.

Staying at MisooHi Nanxia Hidden Sea View Hotel was an absolute delight! I originally booked a room in the homestay area, but was upgraded to the hotel section—definitely worth it. The room was incredibly quiet and cozy, with a private bathtub that made for a perfect evening soak after a long day. Located right in the heart of Zengcuo'an, dining options are abundant and super convenient—just step outside and you're surrounded by local eateries and cafes. The only minor downside is that there's ongoing road construction just outside the entrance, so extra caution is needed when entering or exiting. But overall, getting to the beach is effortless—just open the window and enjoy the sea view. The ambiance is peaceful, the location is unbeatable, and the value for money is outstanding. Highly recommend this gem!

This place is an absolute gem! Just a 5-minute walk from the beach, which made it so easy to enjoy the ocean breeze and relax by the water.

I was here for work, but the vibe felt more like a getaway than a business trip. The projector quality is outstanding—watching movies felt like a real cinematic experience. It’s one of those hidden finds you stumble upon by accident, but you’ll definitely want to come back. A truly memorable stay!

We stayed here on our last trip to Xiamen and had such a great time that we came back without hesitation. The location is perfect—just a short walk from Huangcuo Beach, where you can hear the waves gently crashing every morning.

Our host was incredibly warm and welcoming, almost like an old friend—we even got upgraded to a larger ground-floor room with more space and better views. We spent three relaxing days here, completely letting go of daily stress, feeling truly recharged. It’s one of those rare stays where you don’t want to leave. This hidden gem offers an unbeatable mix of comfort, charm, and ocean vibes. If you’re visiting Xiamen, this is the place to stay. Highly recommended!

Staying at Mingsu Shanqiu Hostel for a few days was an absolute highlight of my trip! The rooms are spotless and thoughtfully designed with a modern, cozy vibe. Just opening the window reveals endless greenery—seriously, it feels like living in a forest retreat. Watching the sunset from the balcony is pure magic: the sky turns into a canvas of warm orange and pink hues, and every photo feels like a wallpaper-worthy moment. I spent hours just sitting there, letting the calm wash over me. The afternoon tea was another surprise—elegant presentation with fresh fruit, soft pastries, and a delicate floral tea. It’s the kind of slow, mindful treat that lifts your mood instantly. Staff were friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. From the serene atmosphere to the thoughtful touches, this place exceeds expectations. It’s not just a stay—it’s an experience. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful escape. A perfect blend of nature, comfort, and genuine hospitality.

Just wrapped up a perfect three-day, two-night getaway at Xiamen Xishu Seaview Villa (Huandao Road Huangcuo Beach Branch), and honestly, it completely surpassed all my expectations. This place isn’t just a stay—it’s a true island escape that captures the soul of coastal living. Right from arrival, everything felt effortless and luxurious. The location is unbeatable—just a 3-minute walk to Huangcuo Beach, one of the most peaceful stretches along the Huandao Road. Waking up to sunrise painting the ocean in golden hues, then strolling barefoot on soft sand at sunset—feels like you’ve got the whole shoreline to yourself. Getting around is a breeze: a quick 10-minute ride to Zengcuo'an Village and Shapowei Art Zone, or 15 minutes to Xiamen University and Zhongshan Road for shopping and street food. Whether you’re biking along the scenic coastal road or hopping on an electric scooter, the freedom is real. Plus, free parking and dedicated EV charging spots make it super convenient for self-drive travelers. The villa itself is stunning—this is not your average hotel room. We stayed in a standalone cottage with a 200㎡ private garden lush with greenery. Afternoon tea under the shade, evening barbecue parties, or even a cozy outdoor movie night—all possible here. Inside, the design blends modern minimalism with tropical charm. The shared lounge features a home theater, karaoke setup, and a tranquil tea room, so even if it rains, you’ll never run out of fun. Our A-block Light Deluxe Room had floor-to-ceiling windows facing the sea, smart toilet, disposable towels, UV sterilization tech, and bedding with a subtle, calming scent. Sleep quality? Sky-high. But what truly stood out was the service—the staff feel less like employees and more like personal island concierges. They upgraded our room without hesitation, tailored a full 3-day itinerary based on our interests, recommended hidden gem seafood spots locals love, showed us how to use e-ID for check-in, and even brought out digging tools and kids’ sunscreen when we mentioned our little ones would want to play in the sand. At checkout, we were gifted handmade seaweed snacks and postcards, and they even helped load our luggage into the car. The cherry on top? They remembered I mentioned loving soft pillows—by morning, two memory-foam pillows were quietly added to the room. That level of care is rare. Breakfast was a solid Chinese-style buffet—rice porridge, buns, fresh fruit—perfect for local palates. But the real adventure was exploring nearby: five-minute walk to authentic Sha Cha Mian and ginger duck joints, and a must-visit to Zengcuo'an Night Market for unforgettable street eats. We even cooked a fresh seafood hotpot in the open kitchen using ingredients bought straight from the nearby pier—fresh, affordable, and incredibly satisfying. And let’s talk about photography: this place is a visual dream. From the white sheer curtains in the garden to the hanging bed on the rooftop deck, and the vibrant rainbow lanes of the coastal road—every corner is Instagram-worthy. We dressed in light-colored dresses and snapped a ‘fake Bali vacation’ photoshoot on the beach. My friends kept asking where it was! In short, this is a high-value, low-stress retreat. For under $70 per person, you get prime beach access, private villa vibes, meticulous cleanliness (yes, even the toilet seat cover was single-use!), and 24/7 attentive support. Whether it’s a romantic getaway, family trip, or reunion with friends, Xishu delivers every fantasy of a seaside escape. Already booked a return visit with the team next year—this one’s a keeper. Five stars, no question. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The moment we arrived, the staff and owner were incredibly warm and attentive—so welcoming and genuinely caring. One of the highlights was discovering the little pet area just next to the first floor; guests can freely visit and play with the adorable animals, which made our kids absolutely thrilled. It’s such a unique and memorable touch that adds incredible value. The first floor also has sand digging tools and crab-catching kits available for free use—perfect for spontaneous beach adventures. Plus, they offer baby high chairs, which made traveling with our toddler so much easier. Everything was thoughtfully provided, from the cozy atmosphere to the thoughtful amenities. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. Truly a standout stay!

The host was incredibly welcoming and made our stay so comfortable. We were a group of eight, and the spacious rooms easily accommodated everyone with plenty of amenities available—everything we needed was right there.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this homestay for groups or families looking for comfort and convenience in Xiamen.

Even though we were on the ground floor, the soundproofing is excellent; there was barely any noise from outside, which made for a peaceful stay. The staff even reached out ahead of time to confirm our arrival details and personally met us downstairs upon check-in. Their attention to detail and warm hospitality truly made the difference.
