Mountain View Hotels in Shantou

Stepping into the room, I was immediately greeted by a breathtaking 180-degree sea view. The room was spotlessly clean and even came with a Marshall speaker. The owner was incredibly kind and upgraded my room, also recommending some fantastic local eateries and tourist spots. They even gave me a small gift upon check-out. Highly recommend!

Stumbled upon this guesthouse online and decided to check it out before the May Day holiday rush. I was initially worried it might be a 'seller's show' (looks better in pictures than in real life), but it turned out to be 100% accurate to what was posted! Overall, a great experience. **Environment:** The guesthouse is set up like an estate, offering good privacy, so you're not disturbed by non-hotel guests or road noise. **Facilities:** The infinity pool in the room seems to circulate filtered seawater, which was very clean. It's perfect for taking photos at night when the lights are on, but it does shut off at 12 AM. There's also an outdoor pool on the first floor facing the sea. The minibar and fridge drinks in the room are complimentary, and all the amenities are of good quality. **Service:** The hotel staff were incredibly attentive. Right after booking, I immediately received a call from the owner. After adding them on WeChat, they confirmed my arrival time and whether I wanted the pool pre-filled, etc. Throughout my stay, I felt that all the staff had a great attitude. This is also a pet-friendly establishment. If you bring a pet, they provide a pet amenities kit with pee pads, diapers, disposable bowls, chew toys like Boryeongdan, and more. I brought my own dog bed, and they mentioned they also offer small beds. However, there's an additional cleaning fee for pets, which I didn't see on the booking page and only found out about upon arrival.

This stay was absolutely fantastic! The breakfast spread was amazing, with aromatic breads and authentic kway teow soup noodles that hit the spot. The room was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and cozy. The front desk staff were incredibly warm and thoughtful; they even called ahead to check on our needs before we arrived. They also thoughtfully prepared kid's toiletries since we were traveling with a child, and we got to enjoy a lovely afternoon tea. The overall service was meticulous and attentive, and the value for money was excellent. Highly recommend!

Our stay at Nan'ao Linjia Scenic Apartment was truly wonderful! The location is perfect, just steps away from the beautiful beach and close to local attractions and dining spots. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile. We were especially impressed by the scenic view from our room, it was absolutely stunning and made each morning feel like a postcard moment. The environment around the apartment was peaceful, clean, and well-maintained, perfect for families looking for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommend this place if you're visiting Nan'ao Island. Everything was top-notch!

The room facilities are very new, and the hot water supply is excellent. There's even a trendy bathtub on the balcony. Plus, the bed is super soft and comfortable! Within 100 meters downstairs, you can find all sorts of food options. The front desk staff are incredibly helpful, answering every question, and they're lovely and pretty too. The most appealing thing is being able to watch the sunrise right from your room's balcony – absolutely delightful!

This time, I brought my child along, so I decided to stay in the county town. First, let's talk about the location. The B&B's location is excellent, with free parking available. Although it's a short walk, it's manageable. Right downstairs, you'll find various restaurants and bubble tea shops. It's practically the Houzhai CBD, very convenient. The only minor drawback is that the hot water is very slow; it takes a long time to come on. After communicating with the owner, they explained that the pipes are long, and you need to let the cold water run out before the hot water arrives. Now, let's focus on the B&B's hygiene and service. The B&B is located in an older building, but the rooms are all new, and the hygiene is exceptionally well-maintained. It's clean and odor-free, which already surpasses many B&Bs. Furthermore, the attention to detail is excellent. Right outside your room on the same floor, the owner provides various daily necessities (dental floss, rubber bands, hair clips, razors, makeup remover wipes, etc.). So thoughtful! Regarding service, the owner led us to the parking lot on an electric scooter. We hadn't checked in yet, and the owner helped us transport our luggage to the B&B. When we checked in, our luggage was already in the room. My child had hives and scratched their skin until it bled a bit, getting some blood on the sheets. I proactively asked the owner if I needed to pay a cleaning fee, but the owner didn't charge anything. What a generous gesture! The off-season price is also very affordable. Overall, for a 207 RMB B&B, I'd give it a 90 out of 100. The 10 points deducted are in hopes that the owner can improve the hot water facilities. We'll definitely come again if we have the chance!

This hotel is located right on Zhujiang Road Food Street, with all sorts of dining options downstairs. The room facilities are new, but you have to ask customer service for a fridge. Parking in the back is convenient. Breakfast, however, is very mediocre and quite basic. They really should have a dedicated staff member at the entrance to collect breakfast vouchers, instead of having a cleaning lady collecting dishes while also yelling for vouchers! On the second day, I even found a hair in my freshly made rice noodle soup. The price was also exorbitant during the May Day holiday, at 882 per night! This price is completely out of line with the city's tier, the hotel's star rating, and the local food prices. The 'smart' toilet only flushes automatically; it doesn't have any other smart features like washing or drying. Also, the flushing sound at night was excessively loud and disturbed others' sleep.

The room was very tidy and the environment was great, especially our sea view room. However, some maintenance is needed. The water pressure in the room was extremely low! The hot water would turn cold after a few seconds, then stop completely for a few seconds before returning to normal, and this kept repeating 😢. It would be freezing in winter. There's a small soaking tub in the room, but even after an hour of filling, the water only reached our ankles. Plus, the room let in a lot of light.

II had a delightful stay at Floral Hotel·Nanao Green Water Blue Bay Light Luxury Hotel. The hotel exudes elegance and tranquility with its beautifully designed interiors and lush surroundings. The staff were courteous, attentive, and eager to ensure a comfortable experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and furnished with modern amenities that added to the overall comfort. The setting is perfect for relaxation, offering scenic views and a peaceful atmosphere. Overall, a luxurious stay at a fantastic location. I highly recommend Floral Hotel·Nanao Green Water Blue Bay for travelers seeking a serene and upscale experience.

I enjoy reading to pass the time on vacation, and the quiet corner on the terrace is perfect for it. With a complimentary coffee in hand, I can look up and admire the ocean view, the fishing boats going to and from the pier, the relaxed daily life of the town, and the windmills swaying in the breeze. The sunset creates such a gentle atmosphere. The desk in the room is spacious and quiet, and the bathtub is great for unwinding. The bedding ensures a good night's sleep. The pool and gym are good for relaxing your eyes, and the kids' club is far enough away not to disturb the quiet areas. Plus, parking is convenient if you're driving.
