Shantou Beach Hotels

"The location is excellent, right in the heart of the business district, very close to all the popular dining spots. It's also super convenient to grab a taxi to Little Park or the ferry. The owner was very thoughtful with preparations, even providing souvenirs and tea, which was a nice touch. Any issues in the room were addressed quickly. The highlight is definitely the incredible view. As soon as you enter the room, you're greeted by a huge window overlooking the river. Even on a cloudy day, the view is stunning. The curtains by both beds also open up to large floor-to-ceiling windows, which is a fantastic sight. And the hot water is perfectly fine! I had a very comfortable shower. I saw some comments saying the hot water wasn't enough, but you just need to wait about 15 minutes – basically the time it takes to dry your hair – and then you can enjoy a really good, long shower. We showered for over half an hour. Considering the price and location, it's an excellent choice."

"This hotel is highly recommended! It's just a few hundred meters from the ferry terminal, making it super convenient to get to QueShi Park on the other side. The 180° sea view is absolutely stunning, and all the front desk staff were incredibly warm and attentive. There's parking available in the back, and although breakfast isn't provided, there's a local seafood market right downstairs. Plus, it's next to Honglingjin Road Primary School, and the surrounding area is full of authentic local eateries."

"The location is quite good, the transportation is convenient, there are many things to eat nearby, very close to the beach, the room is very spacious, warm and comfortable, large balcony, watching the sunrise and sunset, the mattress is also very comfortable, equipped with disposable bath towels and toothbrushes, no contact throughout the stay, is a recommended sea view homestay."

"The room view was amazing, with 270-degree floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramic sea views – perfect for photos! The hotel's location is convenient for getting around, with beautiful scenery nearby. It's within walking distance of several small parks like Overseas Chinese Park, making it ideal for a relaxing stroll. The room was clean and tidy, and the bedding was comfortable. A special thanks to Oscar and Daisy for their thoughtful service, which made our trip even more pleasant. Highly recommended!"

"🍂A hidden gem with a Wabi-sabi vibe, every corner is picture-perfect. 🚗 The location is absolutely fantastic! Just a 5-minute walk to MixC Shopping Mall, so you don't need a taxi for shopping or grabbing souvenirs. 🍝 For authentic local food in the evening, it's a pleasant 15-minute stroll to Longyan South Road, or you can head straight to Zhujiang Road Food Street, a favorite among locals. You can feast on dried noodles and kway teow soup for just a few dollars per person. No worries about late-night cravings here. ⛲️ Whether you're heading to the Small Park or other scenic spots, taxis are super convenient. A transportation-lover's dream! 👍 My first impression upon entering was ”clean and comfortable.” No over-the-top decor, just micro-cement walls paired with natural wood furniture, giving it a wonderfully fresh look. 💯 The rooms are fully equipped: ample heating, quick hot water, a user-friendly smart toilet, and even a washer-dryer combo. This is incredibly convenient for families with kids or guests staying for a few days. ☕️ The common area is perfect for unwinding. Grab a free coffee or pick up a book and relax. When you don't feel like going out, just hang out here – it's much more pleasant than being cooped up in your room. This place is suitable for couples, friends on a photoshoot trip, or family vacations. The bathtubs in the rooms with a view are great for a relaxing soak, washing away all the travel fatigue. 📍Address: 8th Floor, Jinxun Building, No. 110 Jinsha Road, Longhu District, Shantou City. #ShantouAccommodationGuide #MixCMallNearbyHomestay #FoodieFirstChoice #ShantouTravel #ShanheLiHomestay"

"It's been half a month since I got back. Shantou was our last stop, and we stayed for three days, really wanting to enjoy a 'slow travel' experience with my family. The room was very spacious with a super large 2-meter bed. When we first arrived, I forgot to request a non-smoking room, but the owner was proactive in airing it out to remove the smell. The room faced the street, directly across from a central park. There were two layers of screens and windows, so it was quiet at night. Even my light-sleeping family members found it peaceful. The bathroom had a separate wet and dry area, and surprisingly, the shampoo and shower gel were Adouff, not some random brand 👍. There's a bus stop nearby, and bus 105 goes directly to Nanao Island. However, Shantou doesn't have a subway, and the buses are generally very, very slow, so you really need to plan your time. (One day, I wanted to go to Mayu Island, but after waiting for almost an hour for the bus, I gave up). For food, I recommend Wuji Xinghua, though it's a bit far. Longyan Road Food Street is very close, with lots of snacks and delicious food to explore. There's also a vendor near Laomagon Stage who makes Puning tofu – absolutely amazing 👍. Regarding the itinerary, Shantou's attractions are a bit spread out. The Shantou Small Park area is mainly a pedestrian street, and you can actually explore it in half a day. If you're waiting for the sunset, you might need to keep an eye on the bus schedule for your return trip. The Que石 Scenic Area is actually quite large, and it's currently under construction. Hiking there could take a good half-day, so we ultimately skipped it. It's highly recommended to visit the Chaoshan Museum and the Zhenbao Museum across from it earlier in the day. If you want to see an Yingge dance performance, the Chaoshan Museum also has a small paid theater. The 1-yuan ferry has interesting photo spots. The entire journey is only 5 minutes, so if you want to take pictures, you need to act fast as the background scenery is best then. Chaoshan has many interesting shops, and it's really more suited for a slow-paced trip. We often spent half a day in one shop, experiencing the fascinating blend of new and old cultures, like coffee and tea. It was very enjoyable."

"Facilities: all of them are relatively expensive. Hygiene: very clean, breaking the impression that ordinary B&Bs are not clean. Environment: good environment, good scenery, fresh air, the whole hotel is very photogenic, there is also an office space, the front desk can go out to sunbathe, there is a swimming pool, but we really didn't dare to try it in this season. It was very windy during the days we went there. We can try it next time. Service: The service is really very good. Because the hotel is difficult to find, they contacted us before checking in and told us how to enter the hotel. The service is also on call. On the last night, we couldn't order takeout, and the staff sent us small fish to eat. It was really good. Afternoon tea (for two): The mousse cake in the afternoon tea was very delicious, and the coconut Americano was also delicious. I had a room facing the swimming pool. I think that room is the best room I have ever stayed in (or my companions have stayed in). The room is very large and has a full-length mirror. We only booked two rooms at first, wanting to see if Shantou is fun. Later, we extended the room for one day. Our room was already booked, so we had to change rooms. We went to several rooms, but still thought the first one was the best. The hotel staff was really great. When they cleaned the room for us, They also helped us fold our clothes and put our cosmetics in the cosmetic bag. It was really considerate. This hotel is the happiest and best experience I have ever stayed in. The only thing I think is not good is that the hair dryer is too weak. But overall it feels great and gives people a relaxing feeling."

"The hotel service is good. The room facilities are complete. The sanitation is good. Parking is very convenient. The breakfast is relatively simple. There is basically nothing to eat if you go late. There is a coffee shop downstairs of the hotel. The decoration is good and the coffee is also good. There are folk activities in the community next door at night. You can see a lot of fireworks in the room"

"Facilities: I really liked the two small sofas the hotel provided. My partner and I could sit around the table, snack, and watch movies. The king-size bed was very soft, and the room was spotlessly clean; you just melt into it. Environment: We stayed in a 'second-tier' sea-view room, and you could clearly see the ocean from the balcony. Waking up and drawing the curtains in the morning was incredibly therapeutic. If I ever come back to Nan'ao Island, this will definitely be my first choice!"

"The room was located inside the scenic area and was quite clean and tidy. There aren't many restaurants or accommodations nearby, so I didn't have high expectations. However, the butler's service was truly attentive; they were very friendly and patiently answered all my questions. Thumbs up! The scenic area is by the sea and also has amusement facilities, so it should be a good choice for families or for relaxation."
