Nearby Attractions

Three unmissable attractions sit within a 15-minute drive of the guesthouse:

• Kenting National Park: Taiwan’s oldest national park boasts dramatic tropical landscapes, from lush rainforest hiking trails to powdery white sand beaches. Don’t miss the iconic Eluanbi Lighthouse, known as the “Light of East Asia,” with sweeping views of the Bashi Channel.
• Jialeshui Coast: A favorite for surfers and geology lovers, this rugged coastline features unique sandstone formations carved by wind and waves, plus consistent surf breaks for beginners and advanced riders alike.
• Kenting Street Night Market: Just a 10-minute walk from the guesthouse, this bustling night market serves up classic Taiwanese street food, from grilled squid and oyster omelets to mango shaved ice, alongside cheap souvenirs and beach gear.

Travel Tips

If you’re driving, book a spot at one of the public paid parking lots 5 minutes walk from the property in advance, as street parking in central Kenting fills up fast during peak season (June to August and winter holiday weekends). The property only hosts Chinese-speaking staff, so have a translation app downloaded if you don’t speak Mandarin. For the best rates, book at least one month in advance for peak summer travel, and pack reef-safe sunscreen if you plan to join the guesthouse’s arranged snorkeling trips to protect Kenting’s fragile coral ecosystems.
