I thought it would be beautiful, but I didn't expect it to be this beautiful. The sunset hues are truly unbeatable, I can't help but take pictures!! This homestay in Xiapu is built on a mountain, facing the sea, and offers a great view of the sunrise and sunset. The overall design is mainly white, giving a very fresh feeling. The swimming pool of the homestay is also a major highlight! The design is beautiful, and you can pose casually by the pool, making it perfect for photos The sea view room is equipped with large floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing you to see the entire private sea area from the room. The soft bedding is particularly comfortable to lie on, making the accommodation experience extremely satisfying.

The popular Xiapu homestay on the Internet, finally had the opportunity to stay for 1⃣️ night, before coming, all I saw on the Internet were pictures like the third one, Santorini style, I didn't expect that the room could be so stylish with wabi-sabi. What I like most is the floor-to-ceiling window of the room. With the cloudy Xiapu, there is an indescribable sense of tranquility. The neat and consistent seaweed poles, the mountains on the sea in the distance, and the iron boats parked on the shallows, unexpectedly form a deep ink painting. The thin mist has not yet dissipated, and the returning fishing boat is looming in the mist. At this time, the sky and the sea have no boundaries, and the returning sail seems to come from the sky and go to the sea. The scenery framed by the window will always stay in the unpredictable summer of Xiapu. 📍Xiapu Shi Jian Hai Homestay

The second largest island. The sea fish raft in Dong'an Island is known as China's Venice at Sea. There are hundreds of thousands of seafood breeding cages and thousands of houses built on the sea. Looking around, I saw a piece of fish raft around the island floating on the blue sea, stretching for kilometers. Looking at the fish raft also needs to take a boat to an uninhabited island in the middle of the sea, that is the commanding height. You can see the panorama of the fish steak. The terminal here is mainly for the farmers to dock their own boats. At the pier, there will be fishermen greeting, so that tourists can go to the opposite hill to go to the island for photography. The cost of a fishing boat is about 100. It can take more than a dozen people. The transportation to Dong'an Island is convenient. Xiapu County has direct buses to Dong'an Island Pier. You can take a bus to the south of the station next to the long-distance bus station. There is an indication of reaching Dong'an Island!

If Xiapu is a scroll of maritime ink painting left behind in eastern Fujian, then "Cloud Soaring | Aesthetic Homestay" is the poetic negative space within that artwork—here, you'll find not just the sea, but a dreamy dwelling suspended among the clouds. ● Architectural Poetry: Geometric Verses Above the Clouds Pure white walls cascade in staggered "floating" layers that echo the mountain terrain, while 270° floor-to-ceiling windows frame the sea and sky as natural murals. Open your window at dawn to watch mist flow through your fingers; lean on the railing at dusk as the setting sun gilds the entire structure into a golden box. ● Room Narratives: Every Window Is a Private Theater - *Flying Curtain West Sea View Tatami*: The tatami extends toward the horizon, with ocean waves as your natural white noise. - *Loft Suite*: The second-floor loft features a private tea room, perfect for intimate moments with the fishing boat lights and whispered conversations with the stars. ● A Meticulous Obsession with Details The full set of bath amenities is from the British brand Lixiang, featuring custom sandalwood fragrances. A paper lantern in the corner, a miniature dry landscape by the wall, dozens of potted plants throughout the house, and several floral arrangements—all personally curated by the host. --- ● Hidden Gems Around Xiapu: Another Way to Explore - *Dongbi Village Sunset Platform* (5-minute walk) - *Fujian's Little South Putuo: Liuyun Zen Temple* (5-minute walk) - *Xiaohao Beach* (10-minute drive): Vibrant tidal flats and S-shaped waterways, ideal for drone photography. - *Yugongting Tidal Flat Morning Scene* (10-minute drive): Observe seaweed farms from afar—fisherwomen at work and seaweed curtains hanging on bamboo poles create a living *Tiangong Kaiwu* painting. - *Huazhu Village* (15-minute drive): Recognized by CCTV as "China's Most Beautiful Sunrise Spot," where sea clouds and fishing boats share the frame. - *Xiawei Island Sea Erosion Cave* (1h20m drive): Venture into the cave at low tide, where blue light refracting off the walls feels like a scene from *Life of Pi*. *Pro tip*: Wear a light-colored long dress and stand at the cave entrance against the light—snap 50 shots mid-twirl for guaranteed magical photos. ● Immersive Experiences: Turning Days into Haiku - Sunrise yoga on the infinity water platform, breathing in negative ions. - Sip a pomegranate americano at the bar, followed by an afternoon tea session. - Private seafood feast: Razor clams and mussels freshly bought from the dock by your butler, paired with wine. - Lounge on the terrace daybed watching *The Legend of 1900*, with waves as your soundtrack. ● Host's Notes - We don’t create Instagram hotspots—we craft spaces where time stands still. When you find stars from last night nestled in the cracks of Cloud Soaring’s stone steps... - When the sea breeze flips your book open to a haiku... - When a sunset framed by a window mirrors one your mother described thirty years ago... —*This* is the "local romance" we offer, beyond mere accommodation. ● Stay Tips - Off-season: ~$35/person with butler service - Peak season: ~$55/person - 30-minute drive from Xiapu High-Speed Rail Station - Hidden perk: Occasional $0.15 coffee surprises > "Cloud Soaring" isn’t just a destination— > It’s your secret elopement with the mountains and sea.
