[2025 Pingtung Stay] Travel Guide for Gloria Manor (Updated Apr)

Stay at the most beautiful hotel in Kenting National Park, the former southern Taiwan vacation residence of President Chiang, Huatai Resort. It boasts priceless views of Dajianshan and Dawan, and is close to Sheding Park and the Sika Deer Restoration Area. Surrounded by mountains and sea, with vast grasslands, it is truly a place to relax and enjoy a slow-paced life. This time, I booked the classic tatami room type available only on the official website. The biggest advantage is the entire floor-to-ceiling window, which overlooks the vast grassland and Dajianshan, with greenery extending into the room. The Japanese-style decor really blends in perfectly! The weekday special price is 4400 TWD without breakfast. Huatai Resort has many facilities, designed with the concept of coexisting with nature. There are indoor and outdoor multifunctional areas, a spa, a recreation room, an outdoor swimming pool, a gym, and President Chiang's study. The most special feature is President Chiang's study, which displays restored redwood furniture and related books and photos from his time there, witnessing the elegance of the past. Huatai Resort truly excels in its location, allowing it to have such unique mountain and sea views. Staying for a night is truly healing and relaxing.

We visited Gloria Manor and had a delightful afternoon tea time. The restaurant's elegant and comfortable environment offered a variety of delicious desserts and teas, allowing us to enjoy this wonderful time in a leisurely atmosphere. Besides the delicious food, we also took a stroll in the hotel's vast garden, enjoying the gentle breeze and the beautiful surroundings, feeling both relaxed and at ease. This trip was not only about tasting delicious food but also a relaxation of the mind. It is definitely a great choice for unwinding.

The reason to come to Kenting is to enjoy the holiday. I stayed in the only Ruiyuan Suite in Huatai Ruiyuan. It is a really beautiful room. There is a sofa chair from which you can see the beautiful scenery of Dajianshan at different times. The room is very comfortable. In addition to the guest snacks, there is also chicken porridge in the evening. The hotel is also very attentive and delivers it to the room in a thermos. Because it is a suite, there is a turndown service. You can also choose essential oils to light the fragrance at night. You must try its breakfast. It is really delicious. Huatai Ruiyuan used to be the Jiangong Hall, so there are historical sites to see in the park. The swimming pool is also very large. It is very comfortable to vacation. #holidayrelax #Ruiyuan Suites will not disappoint #Dajianshan

Huatai Ruiyuan, located in Kenting, Pingtung, is a great place to play in the water and frolic on the grass without having to worry about crowds. The hotel is very clean, and you can see the scenery of Dajian Mountain from the room. You can also take a bath in the room and enjoy the outdoor scenery! The meal was very detailed and delicious!

The location of Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan is actually very special. It is located 5 minutes drive from Kenting National Park. Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan was not actually run by Huatai Group before. It had gone bankrupt before. Now Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan is doing very well. If you are going to come to Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan, you may be shocked when you see the price of Huatai Ruiyuan, because Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan is super expensive!!! But I think if you use Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan accommodation voucher or Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan discount, it is actually quite acceptable I can explain the price structure of Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan. Generally speaking, breakfast is included, but some do not include dinner. The four most common suites are Haiyue Suite, Seaview Suite, Garden Suite, and Classic Suite in order of high and low price. #Cost-effective hotel #Kenting

Many people who go to Kenting for vacation will first choose to book a sea view room, but Huatai Ruiyuan, located halfway up the mountain, does not have an endless sea view and is a bit off the beaten track, but it is still hard to find a room. "Mountains facing the sea" is probably one of its highlights. It has the tranquility of the mountains and the sea view. This time, because I was attending a wedding, I finally stayed in this dream hotel. The main building is mainly white, which creates a quiet and peaceful atmosphere with the blue sky, swimming pool and green plants. You may even see wild monkeys on the way to the gym. Although it takes 5-10 minutes to drive to Kenting Street, the hotel has a free shuttle bus that can be booked, which is very considerate🥰 The rooms facing the pool offer views of the mountains and the sea, and you can sit on the balcony and wait for the sunset to change the sky into another color. The rooms on the other side face the hotel parking lot, so you can only enjoy the above views from the restaurant or pool. There are two breakfast options: Chinese and Western. Because I stayed for two nights, I had Western-style beef omelette one day and Chinese-style braised pork rice the next day. The taste is very much to my liking. The portion is enough for a girl to be full, but it may be a little insufficient for a boy. In general, it can be summed up in two words: "love"! I highly recommend it to those who are tired of staying in sea view rooms. Why not come and see the different scenery halfway up the mountain🤭 - Address: No. 101, Gongyuan Road, Hengchun Township, Pingtung County Price per person: 3000 up Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Kenting #Kenting Hotel #Taiwan Travel

#WinHongKongTicket I want to go to Hong Kong to buy Jenny Bear! Kenting Huatai Ruiyuan Hotel is located in Kenting National Park. It used to be Chiang Kai-shek's residence and was later converted into today's hotel. The hotel rooms are divided into Japanese tatami rooms and Western bed rooms, with mountain views and a distant view of the coast outside the windows. The hotel has a wealth of facilities. In addition to arranging handcraft experience courses, there are also guided hiking tours and a plant restoration base in the national park. The hotel has preserved the old residence used by Chiang Kai-shek, giving us a glimpse of its past appearance.

This time I came to Kenting for three days and two nights, and I stayed in the Huatai Ruiyuan Sea View Room in Kenting. The sea view outside the balcony window was amazing, and the interior space and bathroom space of the room were very spacious. The Mu restaurant in Huatai Ruiyuan only offers breakfast this time. Its breakfast has four set menus to choose from. Two of the four sets are local specialties, which are highly recommended. The swimming pool is open, but the daytime temperature in Kenting is not very high recently, probably not more than 30 degrees, and it is windy, so it is still a little cold to swim. The attitude and quality of the hotel staff are very good. If there is anything that needs to be changed or assisted in the housekeeping department, their people are very happy to serve the customers. If you come to Kenting, Huatai Ruiyuan is a very good choice and worth recommending. In addition, there may be macaques on the roadside or on the road during the day, and there may be sika deer at night, so drivers should pay more attention to their safety.
