Villas in Shandong, China

I stumbled upon this coffee shop with an incredible ocean view while visiting Qingdao. After chatting with the owner, I learned they also have a B&B! So here I am! It's so popular! I'd been looking at it for days and was about to miss it, but I managed to book it for my last night in Qingdao! This B&B is truly amazing. It's literally 100% of the ocean, and not only is the ocean view unbeatable, but it's also just a short distance from the city's landmark, May Fourth Square, and the beach! The fiery sunset and light show (which started around 7 or 8 a.m., creating a vibrant and colorful spectacle of buildings) offer unparalleled views of Qingdao's most beautiful scenery! The room was clean, tidy, and comfortable, with comprehensive amenities. The common areas inside and outside the villa were also beautiful and clean! The environment was quiet, and I didn't have to worry about the coffee shop ruining my B&B experience. The housekeeper was incredibly attentive. Before I even arrived, I called and added them on WeChat, sent them the location and check-in instructions, and even greeted me at the door. Upon arrival, we were treated to a refreshing summer drink freshly brewed in the cafe, which completely washed away the fatigue of the journey. We were quite casual and didn't need anything, but the housekeeper took better care of us than we would have. Such thoughtfulness! When we checked out, they even helped carry our luggage from the room to the car. Such a thoughtful touch! I absolutely must share this warm and high-quality B&B with friends who are visiting Qingdao for a seaside vacation. I'll definitely be bringing my family back next time. Book a few days in advance; don't try to leave it to chance like I did.

The facilities and hygiene were excellent, and the aesthetic was beautiful. I loved relaxing in bed, looking out at the sea. The shower had incredibly strong and consistent water pressure. I really liked the stone-like floors and bathroom. To eat, you have to go out, but I had already planned to try some local specialties anyway, not eat nearby, so a taxi from the entrance was only 10 yuan. I was a bit worried about people being outside the gate, but there were hardly any, and it was completely quiet. The sunken design is quite interesting; I imagine the rooms directly facing the sea above are even more comfortable. The Japanese dessert shop was only a few minutes' walk away, but unfortunately, I had eaten too much that day and had no room for more. Overall, I was very satisfied. The service was very thoughtful, truly a butler-style experience. Location: You can walk to Wheat Island leisurely in about ten minutes, and Sculpture Park is a short taxi ride away. In fact, walking along the nearby area in the morning is also very pleasant, though it gets hot by midday. You can walk along the coastline. There are a few sea-view restaurants within five minutes, though the views are better than the food. The hotel has a very small front desk and no restaurant. If you don't mind this, it's definitely worth considering.

This was my first time to Qingdao and I had no idea where to stay. Then I choose this. The location is a bit far from the may fourth square or other tourists spot but its a good location for homely stay. The hoise location was exact and so I could find it even at mid night on the first day. The room has all modern facilities but I must stay the room is a bit small. You may not be able to enjoy freedom of space here. But the owner was a kind hearted lady. She is always smiley and helpful which will make any tourist happy. I loved her attitude and gesture. I recommend this if you have a long vacation and you want a more homely environment..

This hotel was a complete surprise! It's just a two-minute walk from the Confucius Temple, and the hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. All the accommodations are charming two-story villas, each featuring a living room, study, two bedrooms (one upstairs, one downstairs), and even a drying room – they truly have everything. The room design is a stunning blend of classical Chinese aesthetics, and it's incredibly clean. The breakfast for two was also incredibly comprehensive; my daughter and I aren't big eaters, so we didn't even get the buns, wontons, and noodles served, fearing waste. My daughter didn't want to leave because our stay was so comfortable. I also have to commend our butler. The museum guide and Three Confucius sites guide they recommended were both top-tier professionals in their field, and they explained everything wonderfully! They also helped arrange our visit to Nishan Sacred Land, which saved me both money and effort.

The coastal homestay I stayed in this time was a great experience! The location of the homestay is great, just a few minutes walk from the beach. Standing on the balcony, you can overlook the sparkling sea, and the sunset in the evening is beautiful! The room is warm and clean, the details are very well done, the bedding is soft and skin-friendly, and it is very comfortable to live in. The front desk brother and sister are so enthusiastic! When checking in, they patiently introduced the surrounding attractions and transportation, and recommended affordable and delicious seafood stalls. When encountering problems, they are available on call, and help solve them quickly and well. It is safe and comfortable to live here, and the cost-effectiveness is super high. Next time you come to the beach for vacation, you will definitely choose here again!

The environment is elegant and pleasant, close to the boardwalk, perfect for a leisurely vacation. It's also near a metro station, making transportation very convenient. The hotel is located close to a 20+ kilometer coastline, and walking along the boardwalk connects you to most coastal attractions, which you could explore for 3 or 4 days.

Environment: Looks okay, no problems, and the space is sufficient. Facilities: All facilities are available; you can order takeout, but the wait might be a bit long. Cleanliness: Good, no issues. Service: The staff member was beautiful and kind. The room environment is as follows: Located in a relatively remote area, it wasn't too crowded during the National Day holiday, making it suitable for those seeking a quiet and comfortable stay. It was quite comfortable, with fresh air. You can enjoy the sea and sunrise from your bed, and the beach is only 600-700 meters away—practically right downstairs. Compared to the hustle and bustle of May Fourth Square in the city, I really liked the atmosphere here.

This guesthouse is almost a hundred years old, and the decor has been restored as much as possible to its original European style. Staying here can't help but remind me of my life in Europe back in the day. The indoor facilities are complete, the room is clean, and the owner is incredibly kind and enthusiastic. I'd definitely come back if I have the chance! ❤️

This B&B is near May Fourth Square, just a few minutes' walk to the beach. Most attractions in the old town are just a starting taxi fare away, which is super convenient! The little garden at the entrance is very cozy, and the room is spotless. The hairdryer is really powerful! The hosts (a young man and woman) are super friendly! They helped open the door, carried our luggage, and even gave us a souvenir when we left ☺️ Thank you! The cat is also very dedicated, cuddling and playing with us 😄 See you next time!

The hotel facilities are complete and clean. It's located in a residential area right next to the beach, and the Third Bathing Beach is just next door. You can also enjoy Qingdao's night view from the rooftop platform. I'll definitely stay here again if I have the chance.
