Come to Xiangshui Bay, Lingshui and take over the entire beach and pool! This detached villa hotel is hidden in a coconut grove and is all about "laid-back vacations" - open the door and see the sea, and soak in the private pool to your heart's content.
Each villa has a private courtyard pool with 24-hour circulating water + tropical greenery, and the photo-taking rate is 200%. The design is super memorable! The simple eaves in the style of the Shang and Zhou dynasties are mixed with modern courtyards, and every photo you take looks like a movie scene.
I have to praise the details: floating row toys by the pool, a kitchen with a full set of kitchen utensils (including a refrigerator and microwave), and children's supplies delivered directly to the room. Parents with children will be overjoyed! The privacy is maxed out, so you don't have to be afraid of socializing when swimming/partying/playing mahjong~
Each villa has a slightly different layout, but comes standard with a bathtub + card room + terrace! The bedding is super soft (I tested it myself), and the rooms are cleaned very carefully. You can walk barefoot on the floor without getting dirty. Families with children can come here without thinking twice! There's a children's playground, sand digging tools, and free breakfast. The kids can play all day, and the parents can lie down and use their phones (if you know, you know!)
It's a 5-minute walk to the beach, which is beautiful and not crowded, with fine sand and clear water! A 10-minute drive away, you can check in at Boundary Island for diving and Hongjiao Ridge Paragliding Base (it's so cool to see the sea from the air). It's 15 minutes to Monkey Island to see the "Mount Huaguo troupe". Foodies, take note!
