What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
the rooms and suites are crisp and contemporary, subtly tropical-themed but in near-monochrome colors, the better to draw the eye outside.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The night market begins right outside the front doors, and Dawan Beach is just across the road.
The rooms
Slumberland beds and Bose sound anchor calm spaces, extending to private balconies framing Mount Dajian or Dawan Beach.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The curving rooftop pool stretches across a timber deck, looking out over the coast and Mount Dajian.
Gym and spa
The fitness room looks through wide windows, and Island Flow Spa offers botanical aroma and massage rituals.
Taolang Rooftop Bar
The open-air rooftop bar pours cocktails and craft beers brewed with local Gangkou tea beside the pool.
At the table
Sardine Kitchen & Bar serves seasonal seafood and made-to-order breakfasts of seafood porridge in the ground-floor bistro.
How it began

Opened in 2025, the hotel arose on the site of the former Kenting Civil Servants and Teachers Activity Center.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
