Falling asleep to the sound of the waves, I found my ideal slow seaside life at the Jiaochangwei Private Hot Spring

The moment I pushed open the gate of "Dream Round the Other Shore" courtyard, the salty sea breeze wrapped in sunlight greeted me, and the blue of Jiaochangwei instantly struck my eyes—it turns out that the ideal seaside vacation is never about squeezing into crowds to watch the sea, but about having a private space to enjoy the ocean view.

The wooden lounge chairs in the courtyard face the boundless sea. In the morning, I love curling up here, watching the sunrise dye the sea the color of orange soda, and listening to the sound of waves crashing against the shore mingling with the bougainvillea at the corner of the courtyard. When the afternoon sun softens, the steam from the private hot spring pool gently rises. Soaking in the warm pool, with fine pebbles underfoot and shimmering waves in sight, even the sea breeze seems to slow down, lightly stirring the scarf I draped over the edge of the pool.

In the evening, there’s no need to rush to a restaurant and wait in line. Setting up a small table on the courtyard terrace, I order a bowl of freshly caught local seafood porridge paired with freshly grilled garlic oysters. As dusk falls, stars quietly fill the night sky, and the sound of the waves becomes the most natural background music. In the moment of clinking glasses with friends, I suddenly understand the true meaning of the phrase "peaceful and quiet times."

Afternoon time is meant for terrace tea. Ordering a fruit platter and sparkling wine, sitting under a beige sunshade, watching the waves kiss the shore again and again. My girlfriend takes photos in front of the courtyard’s green plant wall; the red brick archway paired with her light-colored dress, the sea breeze lifting her skirt, every shot looks like a "pretend Santorini" masterpiece, and my phone’s memory quickly runs out. When I don’t want to daydream, I borrow a bike from the guesthouse and ride along the coastal road toward Yangmeikeng, accompanied by the blue sea and green mountains all the way—much freer than taking a sightseeing bus.
