Encounter Chongming Island's Xuan & Lan, Begin Your Secluded Luxury Retreat

Weary from the hustle and bustle of city life? Long for a tranquil haven where your soul can find respite? Chongming Island Xuan & Lan XUAN Designer Hotel is precisely such an ideal sanctuary nestled in nature, crafting a one-of-a-kind holiday experience for you. Located in the northern part of Chongming Island at the border between Jiangsu's Haimen and Shanghai's Chongming, this little-known "island within an island"—Haiyong Town—retains pristine natural landscapes. Stepping into the hotel feels like stumbling upon a secluded paradise, surrounded by vast green fields, crystal-clear lakes, and blooming flower seas. Here, you can escape the urban clamor, breathe in the fresh air, and immerse yourself in the purest sounds of nature—birdsong and insect chirps—allowing your body and mind to unwind completely in this serene haven. The hotel's architecture is ingeniously designed, blending Chongming's local culture with modern aesthetics to create a striking visual impact. Walls are alternately paved with reclaimed bricks from old Shanghai buildings and rammed earth from Chongming, perfectly merging industrial texture with rustic charm to form a unique artistic ambiance. Guest rooms feature 270-degree wrap-around balconies, as if suspended in nature. At dawn, you can greet the first rays of sunlight while admiring the majestic sunrise over the Yangtze River; in the evening, relax on the balcony to watch reed catkins dance like snowflakes, mesmerized by the poetic sunset. Inside, rooms are adorned with "breathable" diatom mud walls, organic cotton-linen bedding, and pillows filled with Chongming's signature lavender and mint leaves—not only ensuring a comfortable sleep but also making you feel as if you're embraced by nature. The minibar is stocked with local specialties like Chongming golden melon crisps and aged rice wine, allowing you to savor authentic flavors without leaving your room. Gastronomy is another highlight. The breakfast features an upgraded version of "Chongming steamed rice cake 2.0," paired with runny eggs made from Dongtan Wetland duck eggs—each bite bursting with local character and craftsmanship. The signature dinner dish, "Sandbar Trio," deconstructs and recombines Chongming goat cheese, Lühua Town orange jam, and Xinhe Town organic rice cakes, delivering novel and delightful flavors. The lakeside café offers handmade desserts; sitting by the window with aromatic coffee and delicate pastries while enjoying the scenic lake and mountains evokes pure bliss. Additionally, the hotel maintains its own vegetable garden, ensuring fresh, farm-to-table ingredients. The restaurant's countryside dishes—from Chongming black pork buns to fish head stew—are all unforgettable culinary experiences. For recreation, the hotel offers diverse facilities. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy lakeside fishing, while families can pick fresh vegetables or play in the outdoor garden pond and children's sandpit. As night falls, gather for open-air lawn cinema, bonfire fireworks, or a barbecue party with loved ones. For relaxation, Japanese-style hot baths and saunas are perfect choices. To explore nearby, walk to "Yangtze River First Lookout"—the best spot to observe finless porpoises—or visit Dongping National Forest Park, Qianwei Ecological Village, and Pearl Lake Scenic Area for rich excursion experiences. Chongming Island Xuan & Lan XUAN Designer Hotel paints a leisurely holiday canvas with nature as its backdrop, design as its brushstrokes, and service as its colors. Here, every moment is worth cherishing, every experience unforgettable. We look forward to your arrival to unlock your perfect getaway.
