I have stayed in the best homestay, the boss is really very, very good, very sentimental.
1. I have been chatting with the boss before I came. I asked this and that. The boss was very enthusiastic to answer. I felt embarrassed to be polite, so I brought Yunnan and Hunan specialties to the boss. People are mutual.
2. The boss’s cooking sentence is good. My friend and I bought the dishes for the boss to make. I dare to say that it is 10 times better than the outside. Hahaha, I sincerely suggest that you try the boss’s craftsmanship. After eating, I have been talking to us about life and ideals. During the chat, we also sent us beer. The money for the processing materials also reduced me by 20 yuan.
3. Because we came here in the off-season, the boss upgraded us to the best room. We can see the sunrise from the room early in the morning, which is great.
4. The breakfast boss gave us free, and hot juice, really special care.
5. (This one was added by my friend) The boss is very easygoing, kind, and always provides constructive advice. I give 5 points because the highest - there are 5 points!

The boss's family is very welcoming, and the dishes cooked by the boss's mother are super delicious! No need to waste time looking for restaurants outside haha😁
The environment of the homestay is also very clean and cleaned in time. You can see the sea from the balcony, and it is very close and convenient to go to the beach!
If I go to Shengsi again next time, I will definitely choose to stay in this hotel❤

It's quite remote (Taxi cost 70 which is a bit expensive. You need to transfer to the bus but it's actually quite convenient. The room has a good sea view. You can sunbathe on the balcony. The room is very clean and spacious. The sea is yellow during the Spring Festival, but it doesn't affect the mood of vacation. I stayed there for two days and it was very comfortable. The air conditioning is also very powerful. I miss the days of being an islander hhhhhh

JimmysandwichesWe had a wonderful stay at this hotel on Gouqi Island. The room offered a beautiful sea view, which made our stay especially relaxing and memorable. The location is also very convenient—just a short walk to a lively food street with plenty of dining options to choose from.
What truly made this experience exceptional, though, was the owner’s kindness and hospitality. When we unfortunately fell ill during our stay, he went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. His support during that time meant a lot to us. He also kindly helped arrange transportation, which made everything much easier.
To top it off, we were welcomed with a thoughtful gift at check-in, which was a lovely touch. I really can’t rate this hotel highly enough—both for the facilities and, most importantly, for the genuine care and generosity shown to us.

Wonderful hotel! Amazing design for area and wonderful views. Awesome service as well. The main host is very friendly and very helpful. The island as a whole is a bit lacking in activities. But the hotel itself is great.
Some general suggestions for the hotel would be to add some hooks near the bathroom for towel hanging and put chairs on the beautiful balconies so it easier to use that space.

Traveling beyond expectations, the time is very fast, staying on Shengshan Island for less than a day, and I was worried about the traffic on the island at the beginning. When the boss said that we could provide chartered service, it really made us less trouble. We drove us everywhere. We played a lot of scenic spots in a small half-day time. We also took us to chase the sunset. We sent us to see the sunrise in the morning. The service was too good. In terms of accommodation, the homestay is right by the sea. Sitting on the edge of the bay window, you can see the sea view. The restaurant is also by the sea and the scenery is not bad. There is also a swimming pool at the homestay. If the weather is hot, you can bring children to play in the water.

The guesthouse is tucked away in a quiet corner of the countryside, so peaceful at night you can hear insects chirping and frogs croaking. The decor is comfortable, and the rooms are quite nice, easily accommodating two adults and two children, with a balcony.
I noticed a slight odor in the room, but my family thought it was fine. Opening the balcony door, the air was filled with the pungent smell of fertilizer freshly applied to crops – nauseating! Restaurants nearby are expensive and unappetizing; I recommend renting a car to eat in the county town.
The room clearly includes breakfast, but when we inquired in the morning, they said it wasn't prepared and required advance booking – please remember this. Although there was a small sign indicating it, we weren't informed during check-in and ended up spending 90 yuan on takeout. The 20 yuan beach voucher included with the booking was ignored; we didn't ask about it.
In conclusion, the service was poor, the experience was mediocre, and I wouldn't go back.

We stayed in a suite for three nights, checking in on June 1st. The room itself was generally good. However, the housekeeping staff clearly needs more training and improvement in their basic procedures and standards. On our first day, only one coffee packet was provided, which was inconvenient for two guests. The next day, there were no coffee packets at all, and we had to call the front desk to get two delivered. On the third day, the trash bin in the bedroom wasn't emptied. When I went to brush my teeth that evening, I found one toothbrush missing, while an extra comb was left. This meant I couldn't brush my teeth that night or the following morning, which was a terrible experience. These consecutive errors highlight how careless and unprofessional the staff's work is. There's a clear lack of proper checking and review in room cleaning, and this needs a thorough overhaul.

For the cost (especially considering I bought a budget room) this is a good call, especially if your aim is to spend time exploring. It looked a bit down at heel from the outside (Goji berry island is mostly an unpretentious fishing community, not a glamorous destination, but that's part of the charm), but I was pleasantly surprised to find my room quite clean, decently spacious, everything functioning well, and a comfortable bed. Even the partial bay view was nice! Though I don't speak Chinese, the front desk staff were helpful in advising me on things like purchasing return ferry tickets, taxi prices, and restaurant recommendations. (You can try Xianmiao for seafood!) The location is also good, just at the bottom of the hill over to the Houtouwan fishing village, and quite near the island's main restaurant and market street. Breakfast was typical fare, but freshly made.

Five-star highly recommended! Butler service is particularly intimate and thoughtful. The standard room booked is spacious, rare to configure two large beds, and also has its own independent balcony. The decoration is simple and atmospheric, the style is very similar to the whole season, and the living is comfortable and at ease.
The housekeeper was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to help call the car, explain the Shengsi play route and avoid the pit strategy in detail, saving us a lot of homework. On the way to check in, the property in the community had a little unpleasantness. Fortunately, the hotel was very atmospheric. He took the initiative to upgrade the sea view room for us and perfectly solved the problem.
The overall experience exceeded expectations, the hardware is online, the service has temperature, this is the first choice for travel to Shengsi, and will come again next time on the island! And we did not choose to buffet early, choose seafood noodles, great
