A Spontaneous Trip to Qinhuangdao’s Little Joys｜The Best Value Hotel in Beidaihe

This impromptu two-day trip to Qinhuangdao turned out to be an absolute steal! I initially thought the peak season was over and it wouldn’t be fun, but the "dream vacation" I experienced at Daihe Four Seasons Garden Resort Hotel completely exceeded my expectations! Save this guide now 👇 The Perfect Last-Minute Getaway After work on Friday, I spontaneously booked a flight and stumbled upon this hotel—the price was an instant win! Compared to other trendy hotels in Beidaihe, this felt like hitting the jackpot. The best part? It’s just a few minutes’ walk to Xianluo Island, and the window opens to the bustling South Daihe central district, with seafood stalls and trendy milk tea shops right downstairs! Hotel Experience Beyond Expectations The front desk staff were incredibly warm and helpful. When they found out we were last-minute guests, they not only helped plan our itinerary but also treated us with such kindness. The room was gorgeous and spotless, with bedding as soft as clouds and a thoughtfully designed dry-wet separated bathroom. The 24-hour hot water and free hairdryer were the cherry on top—such a heartwarming touch for a northern hotel! Ultimate Guide to Nearby Fun Sunrise at Xianluo Island: Head out at 6 AM for the early ferry and watch the sky turn the sea into a gradient of pink and purple. Beach Bathing Area: The sand is as soft as cotton—rent a parasol and lounge for hours. South Daihe Night Market: Freshly opened mussels for 10 yuan for 3 skewers, and spicy stir-fried clams with ice-cold beer are simply divine! Hotel Perks: They even have a gym and their own swimming pool—so awesome! Breakfast Delight! The complimentary buffet breakfast was surprisingly delicious—steamed buns, soy milk, a variety of options, and even freshly boiled corn on the cob. The staff noticed me taking photos and even brought us a few bottles of water. This "treat" was much appreciated! The biggest takeaway from this trip wasn’t just checking off Xianluo Island but discovering that Beidaihe in the off-season is the real hidden gem! For just a few hundred per person, the hotel delivered a thousand-yuan experience. Girls, just go for it! Shoutout to Daihe Four Seasons Garden for offering great value, amazing service, and a prime location—I’m definitely coming back next summer!
