This hotel, a preferred accommodation for corporate guests of Xiamen Biaoling Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., was outstanding. The rooms are spotless, and its proximity to Rainbow Beach makes it ideal for both business hospitality and family vacations. The helpful Ctrip agent thoughtfully arranged a fantastic sea-facing room for us, providing a truly serene and beautiful experience. Highly recommended!
We stayed at Hairui, and overall, the sea view room was great. Check-in at Hairui was relatively quick; we were able to get into our room around 2 PM. We even caught fireworks and woke up early to watch the sunrise.
**Facilities**: I loved that the room had a towel warmer. The large, round bathtub was a hit with the kids (remember to use the plastic liner provided in the room). My favorite feature was having two sinks, so no fighting with family members. The toilet and shower were separated, and the water pressure in the hotel was excellent, which I appreciated. There was also a separate closet/luggage room right as you entered.
**Infinity Pool**: We went in the afternoon when it was less crowded. Just remember to check the opening hours.
**Cleanliness**: The sea view room was spacious and very clean. However, don't leave the balcony door open too long, or stink bugs might fly in.
**Environment**: The hotel is huge. Exiting through the east gate leads directly to a rainbow track and the beach. We took a 100-yuan electric cart all the way to the Rainbow Beach Children's Playground.
**Breakfast**: We booked for two adults and two children, but only two breakfasts were included. Many hotels now include all guests, and I really disliked this. Breakfast doesn't need to be fancy, but if you could include all guests, wouldn't the customer experience be much better? Children under 1.4 meters are half price at 68 yuan, and adults are full price at 136 yuan. This led to my family eating instant noodles to save money.
**Other**: The kids are older now, so we didn't use many of the play facilities, but an immersive vacation by the beach was still great. You can walk along the coastline to Sunshine Town, where there are restaurants.
During this trip to Xiamen, we stayed at three hotels, and my child absolutely loved The Portman the most. I would also highly recommend it.
Here's why: Qixing Bay boasts a beautiful seascape with fewer crowds. You can probably catch both sunrise and sunset here (though we didn't specifically try). The hotel's direct access to the beach, just across the road, is incredibly convenient. At low tide, you can go beachcombing – there were plenty of hermit crabs, razor clams, and balloon-shaped ghost crabs. We caught some and then released them all. The coastal road alongside the beach is great for cycling, or you can rent an e-bike to enjoy the ocean views. In the evenings, you might even stumble upon some street vendors or activities. It's tranquil and scenic during the day, lively but not noisy at night – a stark contrast to the busy Huandao Road, which is constantly packed with people and traffic.
As for the hotel itself, it's sprawling and stunning. Every corner offers a picturesque spot, perfect for taking photos. The rooms are generously sized with high ceilings, creating a very spacious feel. If you opt for a sea-view room, the ocean vista is expansive and unobstructed, unlike some hotels where 'sea view' means straining to glimpse a distant, hazy ocean. The hotel also boasts comprehensive facilities, including a swimming pool, a water park, and a kids' club – everything you need. It's absolutely perfect for a relaxing three or four-day 'staycation' with children.
The staff members are generally friendly and professional. In particular, the pool attendants are very responsible and meticulous, strictly managing the area. They test and change the water daily, and the water quality was indeed much cleaner than at the state-owned hotel we stayed at previously. The hotel is conveniently located, about a 20-minute drive from Xiamen North Station and Jimei University Town.
I heard there are several breakfast venues, but we only tried the French restaurant. The selection wasn't huge, but the quality was excellent. They also offered local specialties like Shacha noodles, peanut soup, and Mianxian paste – a 'quality over quantity' approach, I'd say. Plus, kids under 1.2 meters eat for free.
The only minor drawback was that due to how busy the hotel was during our stay, there were some inevitable oversights in room cleaning. However, I personally found this understandable. As long as you don't have excessively strict hygiene requirements, it should be acceptable.
After two nights, my child declared that they want to come to Xiamen again next time, specifically insisting on staying at The Portman.

The experience was absolutely fantastic. A special shout-out to the hotel for the thoughtful wristband room keys for the kids; they were absolutely thrilled throughout our three-night stay. The spacious 1.45-meter twin beds were incredibly comfortable. The balcony was perfect for enjoying the view and convenient for drying clothes. Kids playing in the water also had plenty of shade, and the pool staying open until 10 PM was a huge bonus – the children had a blast and the water was spotless. The beach is just across the road, and directly outside the hotel is the lively Sunshine Town. In my opinion, the comfort and overall experience here definitely outshine Qixingwan.
In general: hotel accommodation (Yihai Town Back Garden Room), swimming pool, gym, restaurant food, disposable toothbrush (soft hair), disposable slippers (non-slip design on the bottom, soft and comfortable shoes), concierge car service, distance to go out to sea to catch crabs, etc., impeccable😁
Brother He at the entrance of the lobby of Xihai Hotel, thin and tall, is really super enthusiastic~ Help with luggage, open the car door, contact the concierge car, don’t talk much, but really easy-going, give him a thumbs up for the youth!
Master Zhang of the concierge car is also very polite❤️
The hotel’s gym is on the second floor below Xihai, and the sisters at the front desk are super enthusiastic🤩I think this must not be a coincidence, it must be a good daily habit❤️When you come to Xiamen, you must recommend this hotel.
The room is quite exquisite, with the style and color I like. It is a newly opened hotel, and the facilities and equipment are very new, so the room looks very clean and hygienic. The front desk staff are very enthusiastic, and their staff will also greet me warmly when I meet them in the elevator. It's pretty good. The overall feeling is good.
This stay was really great! From check-in to check-out, every detail made me very satisfied. The hotel lobby is spacious and bright, the room is clean and tidy, the layout is warm and comfortable, the bedding is soft, and I slept soundly.
I would like to especially praise the hotel's service staff, who are warm and thoughtful, and make people feel at home from the front desk to the room service.
The hotel facilities are fantastic, and the service is great. The bed was super comfortable. While there are many residential communities nearby, the commercial area isn't very lively, so dining options are a bit scarce. However, the hotel breakfast was also excellent.
The room is clean, tidy and bright. All aspects of hygiene are pretty good, and the environment is great! Great for handling clients. The high-end and high-end service is considerate, and the reception at the front desk is warm and generous, giving people a sense of intimacy at home. If we have any difficulties, they will help us solve them. Thank you so much! Fully equipped with laundry room and dryer, suitable for business trips and various activities.
This stay was great! From the moment I stepped into the hotel, the front desk staff was very warm and welcoming, and the check-in was quick and intimate. The room was cleaned spotlessly, the facilities were complete and brand new, and the bedding was comfortable like sleeping in the clouds. There are many charging piles at the entrance of the hotel, it is very convenient to drive the tram! Next time you travel, choose here!

This stay experience far exceeded expectations and must be given five-star praise! From the warm greetings and efficient handling process at the front desk when entering the door, to the spotless environment and soft and comfortable bedding in the guest room, every detail is attentive. The WiFi in the room is stable and smooth, the bathroom is dry and odorless, and even the bottled water and toiletries are neatly arranged. Contact the service staff when you encounter problems, the response is particularly timely, and the attitude is particularly good. The location is also very good, the whole experience is full, and I will choose this one next time!

GGuest UserGreat atmosphere, friendly service.
I stayed in this hotel for a short trip. The reception lady was friendly, the bar in the lobby is beautiful and they had some singing performers there on Sunday evening, which felt really special and welcoming.
The carpet and walls in the hallways need renovation and an AC in that area would be nice. My room was quite far away from the elevator, which was quite inconvenient.
Unfortunately, the adults pool wasn’t “working” when I wanted to use it and the sauna was out of service as well. Other than that, I really enjoyed my stay.
GGuest UserThis time I finally didn't step on the thunder! ! It's quite cost-effective and clean. It's comfortable to live in. There is also a dryer to play. It's quite convenient to say or not.
MMrzhangxianshengThe room was clean and tidy, large, and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom is very dry and wet. The boss has a good service attitude and the traffic is very convenient. Downstairs is the snack bar, fast food restaurant, supermarket, etc. Life is convenient and grounded. Invoicing can be issued, first choice for business trips, cost-effective.
FFennudexiaomagegeThe hotel room is quite large, there is free parking, and the hotel service is very good. Because in Tong'an, the price is right, the price is still very good, recommended.
The environment is very good and the villa decoration is quite high standard. It's clean and hygienic. The boss is very nice and hospitable. He even treated us to handmade dumplings. I will stay here again next time I come. Recommended.
