Travel Tips

Since the entire property is ground-floor, it’s an excellent pick for travelers with strollers or limited mobility. If you plan to visit Taroko Gorge on a weekend, book your entry permit online three days in advance to avoid being turned away at the park entrance. The B&B does not offer on-site dining beyond breakfast, so stock up on snacks and supplies in central Hualien City before checking in, and note that extra towels and linens are available for a small additional fee. Driving is the easiest way to explore the area, and the B&B’s free private parking means you won’t have to worry about finding a spot on residential streets. If you don’t have a car, you can grab a local scooter rental or catch a bus from central Hualian to Jian Township in 10 minutes.
