This guesthouse is about a ten-minute walk from Sunlight Rock and also roughly ten minutes from the snack street. The rooms have a charming retro Republic of China style, and the courtyard has a great atmosphere at night.

A heartwarming B&B tucked away in Gulangyu, with lush greenery throughout that's very comfortable and pleasing to the eye. The courtyard is fresh and full of atmosphere, and the rooms are well-equipped, clean, and odor-free. The service is thoughtful and friendly. It's quiet and peaceful, far from the hustle and bustle. They even upgraded our room and gave us afternoon tea, snacks, and a DIY craft. It's only a three-minute walk from Sunlight Rock. Highly recommended.

Response from Property: Thank you for this thoughtful review! 🥰 The room is filled with lush greenery, creating a refreshing and pleasant atmosphere, and the courtyard is charming. The guest room is clean and well-equipped. The room upgrade, complimentary afternoon tea, and hands-on craft experience are a thoughtful touch. Sunlight Rock is a short walk away, and the tranquil and comfortable environment, along with the warm service, makes it a truly welcoming place to stay and relax.
The biggest surprise of our Gulangyu trip! We extended our stay by an extra night just for this hotel! Perched halfway up the hill, it's truly integrated with nature. You could spend a whole afternoon just relaxing on the small balcony outside the room! All you hear is birdsong, and from the artwork on the walls and tables to the view out the window, everything embodies the poetic charm of Gulangyu! The room was quiet and comfortable, and I slept soundly until morning. The staff member was patient and accommodating, ready to help with anything we needed. All in all, definitely great value for money.

We are also glad that the waiter's attentive service made you feel at ease, and that the price was just right for you. We look forward to your return to Gulangyu again for this pleasant and wonderful experience!

I had a wonderful experience here. The trees are beautiful and the landscaping is excellent. There's also an adorable little cat! Our room even had a small courtyard, which was very comfortable for sitting outside. Afternoon tea was served, which was a lovely touch. Overall, I had a fantastic stay. There are many delicious local snacks nearby, and getting to the beach is very convenient.

Oh, I feel like this house is really great. It has a Fujian-style vibe, and it's quite a good value for money in Xiamen. The house is spacious and tidy, and the landlord is quite nice. The front desk service was also very detailed. I highly recommend it to everyone! If you get a chance to visit Gulangyu, you should definitely give this place a try. I think it's absolutely perfect. Out of 100 points, I'd give it a 99.

First time visiting Xiamen and chose this hotel on Gulangyu Island – what an amazing experience! The location is super convenient, really close to the snack street and the pier, so you can easily walk to attractions. Had a great time exploring and eating all day! The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was comfortable, and I slept really well. The service was warm and attentive; they even gave us patient advice for sightseeing. The environment is quiet and atmospheric, and opening the window reveals beautiful island scenery. It was my first time in Xiamen and I found such a fantastic place to stay. Full marks, highly recommend! I didn't want to leave the island, and I'll definitely come back next time~

This guesthouse on Gulangyu Island was such a pleasant surprise! The location was super easy to find, and the surroundings were quiet and elegant, completely free from the city's hustle and bustle. The courtyard was full of flowers and plants, filling the air with a fresh scent – it was perfect for photos. What impressed me most was the cleanliness; the room was spotless, the bedding was soft and clean, and the bathroom had no strange odors. Every corner was meticulously cleaned, which made me feel very comfortable and safe during my stay. Coming back to the guesthouse each day, seeing the tidy room and the greenery outside the window, all my travel fatigue just melted away. Overall, my stay was incredibly comfortable. I got to enjoy the tranquility of Gulangyu while feeling completely at ease. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I visit, and I highly recommend it to everyone!

Strolling through Gulangyu Island, free from the hustle and bustle of vehicles, only the sea breeze and the intertwining melodies of pianos accompany you. Red-tiled roofs and lush trees adorn the exotic architecture, while the gentle embrace of time is hidden deep within ancient alleys. Around a corner, you encounter vibrant bougainvillea in full bloom, and the waves gently lap against the rocks. Time seems to slow down here, every step taken steeped in poetry.

This guesthouse on Gulangyu Island was such a delightful surprise! It's an old villa that offers a peaceful retreat despite being centrally located. The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was soft, and the bathroom with its wet/dry separation was super comfortable. The location is perfect, just a few minutes' walk to the ferry terminal, making it incredibly convenient for sightseeing. The owner was warm and thoughtful, proactively helping with luggage, providing a hand-drawn map with tips, and even offering some snacks. The courtyard is elegant, and enjoying the sea breeze in the evening was incredibly pleasant. Overall, a perfect experience – I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit!
