Introduction

Tucked away in Penghu County’s laid-back capital of Magong, 樂在綺中民宿 (Le Qi Zhong Homestay) is a charming, family-run escape that captures the quiet, sun-drenched magic of Taiwan’s outlying archipelago. Far from the crowds of the island’s busiest coastal resorts, this cozy homestay blends warm hospitality with comfortable, practical amenities, making it ideal for couples, family groups, and slow travelers looking to soak up Penghu’s unique blend of coastal history, rocky landscapes, and island hospitality.

Hotel Overview

Located at No. 136-2, Shuangtougua, Magong City, 樂在綺中民宿 puts guests within easy reach of Magong’s old town core and the island’s most scenic coastal drives. The homestay offers a range of accommodations, including spacious family rooms perfect for multi-generational trips, all fitted with crisp linens, air conditioning, private en-suite bathrooms with hairdryers, and flat-screen TVs. Many rooms open up to lovely views of either Magong’s quiet city skyline or the homestay’s lush private garden.

On-site amenities cater to relaxed island stays: free Wi-Fi covers the entire property, and free private parking is available for guests who book ahead. Outdoors, you’ll find a sun terrace, outdoor dining area, picnic spot, and shaded outdoor seating ideal for post-beach drinks or morning coffee. Shared spaces include a cozy recreation lounge and communal dining area, where a homemade breakfast is served each morning to fuel your day of exploration. Additional services include paid airport shuttle service, on-site car rental, and private check-in/out for added convenience, with 24/7 security via key card access, smoke detectors, and CCTV in public areas for peace of mind.

Attractions

Three unmissable nearby spots make this homestay an ideal base: First, just a 10-minute drive away is Magong Old City, where you can wander winding alleyways lined with century-old southern Fujian-style courtyard homes, browse local hand-painted pineapple cake shops, and visit the iconic 400-year-old Magong Tianhou Temple, one of Taiwan’s oldest Mazu shrines. Second, 15 minutes from the homestay lies the iconic Penghu Great Bridge, a 2.5-kilometer causeway connecting Magong Island to Xiyu. Stop at the midpoint lookout to snap photos of the turquoise ocean crashing against the island’s dramatic basalt rock formations. Third, for a quiet beach day, head to Shanshui Beach, a 20-minute drive away. Its soft golden sand and shallow, calm waters are perfect for swimming, and sunsets here paint the sky in hues of pink and orange that are unforgettable.

Travel Tips

The homestay only accepts Chinese-speaking guests at present, so if you don’t speak Mandarin, consider bringing a translator app to help with check-in and any requests during your stay. Book your free private parking at least three days ahead of your arrival to guarantee a spot, especially during Penghu’s peak travel season from June to August. Note that extra towels and bed linens incur a small additional fee, so bring your own beach towel if you plan to spend days by the ocean. Finally, since the homestay’s upper floors are only accessible via stairs, travelers with mobility issues should request a first-floor room when booking.
