          Excellent BNB in Hualien. Highly Recommended!”

          Our travel group is made up of 2 young kids, 2 elderlies, and 3 adults. The rooms are clean, comfy, and spacious. The hospitality is fantastic - the owners made us feel very welcomed and attended to our every needs. Their attention to details are excellent too - they provide instant noodles should you get hungry at night and coffee 24/7 from their coffee machine. The beds are comfy, and the balcony and bathroom views are the gorgeous Pacific Ocean. It is 30 minutes drive away from the city centre, but it's the quiet respite we love. Highly recommended.

          Delicious breakfast, friendly & helpful staff”

          Had two nights stay over there. You can stunning view from the top floor balcony with Pacific Ocean and mountain woods. Room is very clean but hope they can put some hanger for clothes. They’re dedicated to make breakfast every morning. Staff is very friendly and helpful. A very comfortable stay!

          Very nice host and room was good”

          Room was very clean, stylish, spacious with fantastic view of the Pacific Ocean. It is a bit far from Hualien city centre and may be a problem for those who don't drive, but of course if you want good views and quiet surroundings there is tradeoff. I love this B&B, but I think there ought to be more clothes hanging racks or the like in the room.

          Better for family and a group of friends. ”

          Warm welcoming by the owner and charming design is my first impression upon entering this place. The room is spacious and super clean! The location is a little far out (which is not convenient, no convenient store and restaurant nearby), however, the breathtaking mountain & ocean view scenery makes up for it.

          Beautiful seaside getaway”

          Very clean hotel, great view of the ocean, quiet and relaxing

          I live in Taiwan, a friend and I just wanted to get away for a weekend. I'm so glad we chose this B&B. What a retreat. It was very modern, big rooms, halls and bathrooms, and definitely the cleanest place I've ever stayed in Taiwan. There's a lovely deck on the roof with an unobstructed view of the ocean, plus lawn chairs, umbrellas and tables. My Chinese is very poor, but the lady running the B&B was cheerful and didn't mind repeating things for me so I could understand. The rooms are a little expensive, but I got my money's worth in ambiance and service. I've been to Hualien several times, already roamed the night markets, seen Taroko. I wanted a hotel nice enough that I could just put my feet up and stay. That's exactly what this is. I will absolutely be back.

          A real treat ”

          Spectacular views, beautiful rooms

          this b&b is a real treat to stay at - views of the ocean as far as the eye can see (the sunrise is spectacular), beautiful rooms, and really warm service (plus an adorable dog). only con is that it is really far away from the hualien train station (about 30 mins drive) and there is literally nothing around the b&b save for other b&bs and one seafood restaurant. however they do provide tours in and around hualien. this is most definitely a place you come to simply relax, read a book, laze the days away and enjoy the ocean breeze. i hope to return soon!
