Travel Tips

Book your stay and parking in advance, especially during peak travel seasons (summer and the Lunar New Year holiday). If you plan to hike Taroko Gorge, pick up trail permits in advance, and the resort’s tour desk can help arrange guided walks or cycling tours for an extra fee. The resort offers paid cooking classes and local cultural experiences, so ask the concierge about current schedules when you check in. For travelers arriving by plane, book the resort’s airport shuttle at the time of booking to avoid waiting for public transport. If you’re visiting in winter, the heated rooms and on-site hot spring whirlpool make for a cozy, relaxing escape after a day of exploring.
