🌊 Room Selection Tips to Avoid Pitfalls:
1. Always choose a room with a balcony! Dongshan Island is very humid, clothes won’t dry easily indoors
2. Book at least 1 month in advance during peak season, especially near Jinluan Bay
3. If driving, prioritize hotels with free parking, parking spaces on the island are limited
4. Non-weekend prices are 30%-50% cheaper than weekends

🍤 Nearby Activities:
• Watch the sunrise at the mirror-like sandy beach of Jinluan Bay at 6 AM
• In the afternoon, visit Nanmen Bay to see the colorful houses featured in "The Left Ear"
• In the evening, go to Aojiao Fishing Village to watch fishing boats return to port

⚠️ Important Reminders:
• May to August is the fishing moratorium, seafood prices will be higher
• Getting a taxi on the island is inconvenient, renting an electric scooter is the most cost-effective (about 80/day)
• All hotels do not provide disposable toiletries, remember to bring your own

❤️ Dongshan Island is perfect for relaxing and daydreaming. Choose your favorite hotel, sleep in naturally every day, enjoy the sea breeze and seafood—this is the right way to vacation~
