Gulangyu Lijiayuan Seaview Villa Hotel (Sanqiutian Wharf)

After booking the hotel, the hotel’s exclusive butler promptly communicated the Xiamen time, added WeChat, and informed us in detail how to get to Gulangyu Island. He also warmly met us at the pier and helped us take our luggage to the hotel. The hotel, which was renovated from an old villa, has a quiet environment and is located near the pier, just a five-minute walk away. Smart curtains, smart toilets, super large balconies, and super large courtyards. Sunny days ~ Jay Chou, the most beautiful corner is just 30 meters away from the villa hotel.

The hotel is very close to Sanqiutian Wharf, next to the most beautiful corner and sunny wall. The service is also very good. The room type was upgraded for free, and travel guides and maps were sent. The breakfast was also very rich.

Environment: Carefully planted flowers and plants combined with ambient lights are very artistic; Service: considerate, warm and trustworthy. The dedicated butler is very warm and thoughtful. Everything is of professional standard. The villa has period stones, waiting to tell you about the past hundreds of years!

Gulangyu is an island of music. We came here with great expectations, and life on the island also gave us more excitement than expected. This excitement came from the Lijiayuan where we stayed. There are countless villas on Gulangyu, and Lijiayuan is undoubtedly the best one among them. The operator of the villa carefully renovated this ancient villa, making the originally old building full of modernity. The smart home system brings convenience to the residents. What makes me more satisfied is that the hotel manager communicates in time and provides comprehensive services. Shortly after I booked the room, he called me and carefully introduced the hotel situation and the catering on the island to me, which was very helpful for me, a first-time traveler on the island. When I arrived at the hotel, he generously upgraded our room type and provided extra breakfast, and gave me a lot of travel suggestions on the island. Unfortunately, the subsequent hotel time cannot be changed, and the plan to continue staying cannot be realized. Next time I come, I must stay for a few more days. The slow life on the island is really enjoyable.

The second time I came to Gulangyu Island, I chose to stay one night on the island. Very lucky to have chosen this hotel. Service: The butler will communicate in advance the night before to agree on the arrival time of the next day's boat, and will then greet you at the pier in advance. The butler will provide hand-drawn maps of Gulangyu Island and plan the tour route for guests in detail. When we arrived at the hotel, the housekeeper thoughtfully upgraded the room type, which was really great. Environment: The hotel is about a five-minute walk from Sanqiutian Pier and needs to pass through the most beautiful corner. The hotel has a very good environment, with a large yard with swings. It is in a very quiet place, away from the tourist routes of large numbers of tourists. Features: The hotel is very quiet and the room facilities are also very good, including smart toilets and Xiaomi TVs. Breakfast starts at eight o'clock, one serving per person, including porridge, milk and fruits, a very rich combination. I have a small suggestion. The adjustment of hot and cold water in the shower is a bit too slow and it is difficult to adjust to a suitable water temperature. It is recommended that the slippers can be replaced with disposable slippers, which is more hygienic. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay experience and I will come back again. Give it a thumbs up.

The location is relatively close to the pier, so you don’t have to walk a lot to carry your suitcases, and it’s not far from the crowded snack street. You can see the sunset from the balcony on the fifth floor, and the building is very high so the view won’t be blocked by other houses. There are almost no restaurants on the island. They are all old villas converted into B&Bs. Overall, this one is very good.

The hotel is very clean and tidy, and the decoration style is more Nanyang style combined with Western style, which is particularly exquisite. The front desk butler was very enthusiastic and picked us up at Sanqiutian Pier. He provided us with a route map and explained it while walking past the most beautiful corners and check-in spots at the Sunny Wall. It was great!

The service quality of the hotel is very good. The store clerk sent us a WeChat message one day in advance to inform us of the precautions and pick-up from the pier, which is very good. The hotel environment is not bad. It is a reformed hotel. It is the best on the island. The decoration is relatively new and the electronic equipment is good. It is very close to Sanqiutian Pier. However, it is worth mentioning that you should not have too high expectations for the hotels on the island. The one I have chosen is a four-star hotel, but it is a bit different from what I thought I expected after staying in so many hotels.
