Sleeping by the Sea~ The internet-famous homestay in Shishi that many celebrities have checked in!
Although I have been to Quanzhou many times, this is my first time coming to Shishi as a county-level city of Quanzhou.
Shishi is also an unmissable seaside city. Located by the sea and prospering because of it, it boasts a 64-kilometer-long coastline and the enchanting 'Ten-Mile Golden Coast'. The internet-famous homestay in Shishi, 'Orange If Full', fulfilled my wish to sleep by the sea last summer.
The entire homestay looks like a pink castle with an infinity pool, a piano on the sea, a pink corridor... every corner is perfect for taking photos. It's not just a homestay, but also a cafe and an art gallery, where various events and exhibitions are held from time to time. There's even a sky garden on the third floor!
The most beautiful room is, of course, the one facing the sea. Make sure to choose a sunny day to come. Lying in bed, you can welcome the first rays of the morning sun. It's really so healing!
The room design is more of an ins-style, simple and fresh. The homestay provides breakfast
You need to go to the second floor of the cafe to eat.
The waiters are dressed in cool Southeast Asian floral shirts. The cafe also has floor-to-ceiling windows. Enjoying a hearty breakfast while looking out at the sea, is there anything more blissful than this?

In Quanzhou! Who can resist a dopamine-colored castle?
🌊Quanzhou is a city that many people want to visit once in their lifetime. It is the source of Southern Fujian culture, the starting point of the ancient Maritime Silk Road, and possesses a long history and rich cultural heritage. Come to Quanzhou, feel the human touch in the urban area, and experience the romance of the pink castle by the sea at sunset.
🫧Juo·Coffee Homestay Art Gallery (Golden Coast branch) is located in the Golden Coast Resort of Shishi City, next to Ocean World. The homestay is mainly decorated in pink tones, complemented by white and blue as embellishments. The semi-circular arch design of doors and windows, white stairs, cottages, and pavilions, and the lively and cute color scheme make it seem like a dreamy castle in a natural setting, very girly! It feels great just to daydream inside the homestay! There are many photo spots designed outdoors, including an infinity pool, a white piano, a seaside church, and more. From the rooftop area, you can see the beautiful scenery where the sky meets the sea, and you can also see the distant Loga Temple.
🌵The guest room design is simple, with large areas of wood-colored flooring and furniture decoration, complemented by green plants, flowers, and stylish, textured lighting fixtures, soft and skin-friendly bedding, creating an overall comfortable living atmosphere. The large arched floor-to-ceiling windows are a highlight of the guest room. The sunlight streaming through the windows into the room, sitting in the tatami area by the window, enjoying the seaside scenery close at hand, and the sunset glow, is really too enjoyable!
💐The pure white building is the homestay's own seaside coffee shop. In the morning, you can eat the Quanzhou specialty Mianxian Hu here, and in the afternoon, it's also a nice choice to enjoy a lovely afternoon tea time. In addition, the pink building's first-floor area will occasionally hold art exhibitions, and you can check with the housekeeper in advance for the event schedule.
