I took some time off to take my kids to Shengsi (one of the places I have always wanted to visit). The island is very small and you can explore the entire place in about 4-5 hours by electric bike, but the road around the island is very beautiful, and you can see different scenery at every turn.
The people on the island have very simple customs, and most of the indigenous people make a living by fishing. The changes in the past 20 years have seen an increase in the number of tourists, an increase in the number of homestays, and a gradual expansion of the commercial scope of the urban area.
On the first night we stayed at the easternmost part of the island, where there was a small fishing pier. We went there to watch the swimming crabs and shrimps that had just been caught, and went to the beach to catch small crabs at night.
It was a great experience to drink coffee and eat seafood at the beach. The next day, I took my kids for a bike ride around the island and took a stroll on the Left Bank Highway. There were many white buildings on the beach similar to those at Erhai Lake, and Mediterranean Greek-style check-in spots, but for me, they were beautiful but too commercial.
Compared to the Left Bank, I prefer the Donghai Fishing Village, where the fishermen and local customs are preserved. However, there are only a few original residents left... It is said that two-thirds of them are sub-landlords.
Some of the original islanders have left. There are 79 taxis on the island, and most of the drivers are indigenous people. I know the housekeeper of the B&B, who is a graduate of East China Normal University. However, because his younger brother had to go out to work, he stayed on the island, stayed with his parents, and ran a business he loved. He is enthusiastic and patient, which is probably the biggest gain of this trip.
Finally, let’s talk about Jihu Beach, a commercially operated beach that charges a fee. It has the Dopamine Heat Wave Music Festival, the rhythm is very exciting, there are a lot of people, and the coastal beach is very dirty... Apart from the music, the cost-effectiveness is not very high.
If this island continues to maintain such folk and natural landscapes, preferably without takeout and with less plastic waste that damages the environment, it will be a place where you can stay for a long time.

This stay experience is very satisfactory! First of all, the car rental service is particularly convenient. The car rental process provided by the hotel is simple and fast. The staff also warmly recommended the surrounding self-driving route, which made our travel easy and worry-free. The room environment exceeded expectations, the decoration style is simple and warm, the bedding is comfortable and clean, the view outside the window is wide, the night is very quiet, and the quality of sleep is particularly good. Although it is the first time to stay, the service is thoughtful and meticulous, from check-in to check-out, people feel at home. Very good value for money, highly recommended to friends who need to rent a car and pursue comfortable accommodation, will definitely choose here next time you travel!

Superb stay experience! This stay with my girlfriend really surprised me! The room was spotless, clean and comfortable, the bedding was soft and skin-friendly, and the sleep was too fragrant. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of the room when I patronized the experience! The proprietress is warm and welcoming, and the details can feel the proprietress's intentions everywhere, and the environment is warm as if you are home.
The proprietress is super enthusiastic and takes care of her from check-in to departure. The most amazing thing is her cooking skills! I stayed here for two days and ate two meals. The seafood is fresh and affordable. The taste is really great. It is comparable to the chef's level. It is super satisfying.
I will definitely choose here next time I come to play, the price is super high, the experience is 💯! Strong Amway to all friends who pursue quality and human touch ~👍🏻👍🏻

🏝️ Living in the romance of mountains and seas and morning and dusk 🌊
📌 Hygiene: The door is cured instantly! The room was spotless, and even the balcony glass guardrail was wiped as transparent as nothing. For the cleanliness party, this kind of detail control cleaning standard is simply full marks!
🌿 Environment: It is no exaggeration to say that opening your eyes in the morning is the blue ocean, and the sea level is outside the balcony. The fishing boats float a little on the emerald sea, and you can sit on the balcony for a whole day.
🚿 Facilities: Panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows + double-opening balcony, no matter how to shoot, it is a blockbuster.
🤵 Service: After landing on the island, the dock picked up, and an exclusive service group was built after check-in. The tide table + suggestions for wearing + mosquito-proof tips were intimately issued.
📍 Location: The homestay is hidden in the middle of the mountain, the privacy is excellent, the waves and white noise can be heard at night, and the quality of sleep is soaring! 10 minutes walk from the cliff of Dongya, convenient to watch the sunrise.
🍽 Food and beverage: The ingredients are now picked on the same day, and the local aunts burn them, which is very rare.
The day of check-in just happened to catch up with the Tanabata Festival, and the little brother also sent flowers 🌹.

After considering going to the beach for a long time, I chose Shengsi, the surrounding city, because of the short holiday. At the beginning, I also made a lot of strategies. I chose the hotel time to see the lazy house at first glance. Whether it is the decoration style or the location, I suddenly attracted me. Habitually compared me, I still browsed a lot of hotels in the follow-up and finally chose lazy house. It may be fate. The day before I went to the island, my sister added WeChat to give a warm reminder. I was lucky to meet two enthusiastic homestay sisters, who cooked super delicious ingredients and especially fresh. My sister said that many guests started with a bowl of noodles at their house, and then their dishes, and I just ate seafood noodles at noon before leaving from the dish. Shengsi is beautiful, my sister is more beautiful, I look forward to seeing you next time. CD action is the greatest respect for food)

Consistent with the description on the Internet, the location is in the second row of ”Donghai Fishing Village” near the sea. Every room we live in has an outdoor balcony. Sitting on the balcony, you can watch the sea in a daze and drink tea. The room is clean and clean. The small garden on the first floor is suitable for small partners to cool and chat. Would recommend to friends to come back next time.

It was a very pleasant experience. The hotel is very close to the beach. It is a stand-alone villa. The proprietress is very welcoming, just like family. One night, my wife and I were trapped on the other side of the island. We couldn't get a taxi and the rented electric car was out of power. In a hurry, we called the proprietress and she drove more than ten kilometers to pick us up without saying a word. She saved us, otherwise we wouldn't know how to spend the night. The hotel's kitchen is also available for us to use at will. It is very convenient to cook something or process seafood. During our stay, the proprietress fed us a lot of fruits every day. The proprietress is so nice. Thank you!

我們還沒有上船前老闆就問我們船的時間,及時溝通我們下船後應該怎麼走,幫我們安排了一個大車來接,非常貼心。這是一個別墅,本來是一樓的,老闆考慮我們人多,給我們升級到了二樓的三人間,對於旅客來説非常開心,老闆格局很大。這個房間非常適合看日出,距離六合看日出也很近。對面就是沙灘也很好看。來度假推薦這家。
