This is a hotel that can easily win fans just by its exterior design. The facade looks like a castle made of lego blocks, composed of many "boxes" stacked together, forming independent "modules" that echo each other. Each room is closely connected but has completely different entrances and exits, avoiding encounters between cats and dogs in the hotel. The social places for dogs are the beaches, lawns, and parks outside the hotel. The exterior wall of the building uses matte transparent polyurea waterproof coating, which is not only waterproof, but also resistant to dog urine. Considering the travel issues of older pets, the height-width ratio of the stairs adopts a relatively gentle commercial building staircase standard, so that dogs with inconvenient legs and feet can easily go up and down. Rooms The 33 rooms of the Doghouse Hotel have independent entrances and exits, one side facing the sea and the other side enjoying the greenery and sunset. The interior space is two-story, with bedrooms upstairs and activities downstairs, adapting to many human-dog modes. At the same time, partition fences can be set according to the owner's habits and needs, serving as the activity area partition for the two floors, and each floor is equipped with an independent bathroom, providing more interaction space for people and pets on vacation. Supplies You can use the full range of "Wild Dog" supplies, such as exclusive parent-child slippers for wild dogs, exclusive carpets for wild dogs, exclusive cups, coasters, towels, bath towels, etc., Japan's APDC universal water, DogAroma pet calming aroma, Popocola Thailand latex warm dog nest, dog hotel towels, dog fence coffee machine, LaRoo teeth grinding glow retrieval ball, GiGwis plush toys... Experience The outdoor grassland and forest are good choices for playing with pets, and they are also romantic places to welcome the sunset and sea breeze. There is never a lack of sunny beaches, comfortable and relaxed strolls and rests.
