🏝️ Nestled along the 30°N coastline, the most beautiful in Xiangshan, lies a French-style seaside homestay—Niguang You House. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the sea, it's brimming with healing vibes.
🌟 Highlights of the Homestay
This homestay is transformed from traditional fishing village houses, preserving many charming details like shell display art and rugged stone walls, creating an immersive atmosphere. The rooms are tastefully designed with a blend of wood, stone, leather, and fabric—simple yet elegant, and every corner is Instagram-worthy! Rooms come standard with Marshall speakers, HCK refrigerators, custom bathrobes, ACQUA mineral water, and projectors for cozy movie nights in bed—pure bliss~
🍽️ Dining Experience
The homestay has its own chef, and you can confirm the menu with the butler. If you prefer not to dine in, there’s a shared kitchen for DIY cooking. The butler can arrange afternoon tea, DIY kiln-fired pizza, specialty cocktails, coffee, and drinks. The kiln-fired pizza is a must-try—the whole courtyard fills with the aroma of melting cheese, and making it yourself is so much fun!
🏖️ Nearby Activities
Just a 10-minute walk to Dongdan Sports Beach, where you can frolic by the sea. The homestay also offers plenty of entertainment zones, like a dreamy swimming pool and garden afternoon tea, so you can have a blast without even leaving.
💁♀️ Thoughtful Service
From the retro leather-wrapped keys handed to you at check-in to the butler’s meticulous help in arranging activities, the service is warm and attentive, making you feel right at home.
