| Would you dislike such a Christmas suite? Recently, the hotels I've checked in are almost full of Christmas elements. Sasha traveled from Changbai Mountain to Xiamen, and found that Shangri-La Hotel in Xiamen really played the Christmas theme in a new way! Let's not talk about the Christmas decorations from the entrance to the lobby to the restaurant, this 270-degree sea view Christmas suite may be the only one at present, right? From the guest room, you can enjoy the intoxicating sunrise at sea, and the beautiful view of the fiery sunrise rising from the opposite side of the Golden Gate Bridge. The decoration of the guest room is very romantic, from the floor to the ceiling, from the Christmas desserts with sea view to the Christmas dolls at the head of the bed, and the small train around the blingbling Christmas tree 🎄 running happily. If you bring children here for Christmas, they will be overjoyed! This Christmas package also includes a breakfast buffet, a limited Christmas afternoon tea for two, and more Christmas gifts~ You can also choose the buffet dinner during Christmas, which includes a 100% winning Chou prize event, and the first prize is far ahead.

When you step into Shangri-La, the street experience continues, with the restaurant, bar, bakery, and other public areas integrated into the streets and alleys, creating a distinctive and diverse dining space. The most distinctive feature of the public area is the music room, where guests can enjoy afternoon tea and choose to play their favorite vinyl records during the day. Room I stayed in a Premier King Room, which had a lot of soft drinks in the fridge, a capsule coffee machine, and a silver ear soup delivered before bed, which made it feel more human and homely.

| A trip to Xiamen, lying down and watching the sea and sunrise. Some people go north to enjoy the ice and snow🌨️ Some people go south to seek warmth 🌞 During the Great Cold of 2025, I arranged a trip for myself to relax my body, mind and soul. I flew to Xiamen in an hour and a half and started the first stop of the New Year trip. For two nights and three days, we stayed at the Shangri-La Hotel Xiamen (the 100th Shangri-La Hotel in the world, very meaningful 😊) to overlook the beautiful sunrise over the sea 🌅 and greet the first rays of morning light on the Lu Island. Both the hotel's sky garden and the Guanyinshan Beach near the hotel are excellent view spots. The happier baby (staying in the Deluxe Room with Sea View 😊) only needs to open the curtains to "lie down and watch the sunrise", which is like a god's help for people like me who have difficulty getting up early! I visited Xiamen again after an absence of ten years. I was amazed by the magnificent sight of the sea and sky, and the rapid development of the city. The mountains and sea of ​​Xiamen, blending the light of day and night, presented one beautiful scene after another before my eyes. Starting from Xiamen Xiang🏨, you can walk to the ancient Huangyutou Temple, stroll along Guanyinshan Beach and take photos; drive to Shangli Reservoir and Pangui Pagoda to experience the wonders of nature for free. I strongly recommend that everyone who comes to Xiamen must set aside time to prepare a plan and take a trip to the "Mountain and Sea Trail". The entire journey is 32km. We found the best itinerary based on our own conditions, walked and stopped, took photos and looked around, and all our anxieties were cured. Life is but 30,000 days, so enjoy every day. Traveling is the best way to enjoy life, unlock a city and experience a city. Her warmth, her mountains, her sea, her food and culture are full of surprises.

Xinshitang, an ADD of Shangri-La Hotel, Xiamen, serves breakfast as well as lunch and dinner buffets. As the New Year is approaching, the restaurant is decorated festively, with plenty of green plants and a bright kitchen, which makes people happy. The dinner buffet for adults at 208 is really the best value for money. Fresh seafood can be cooked hotpot or blanched. Chaoshan beef hotpot, unlimited supply of chef-cut beef. ​Oysters, seafood, and grilled eels really reflect the advantages of being near the sea! Add to that a variety of Chinese and Western cuisine, classic Fujian snacks, original stews, and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and you'll definitely be full and well fed.

We went to Xiamen with friends and chose to stay at Shangri-La Xiamen. It was a great experience and good value for money, so I wanted to share it with you. Location: We flew from Beijing to Xiamen. It only took 20 minutes to get from the airport to the hotel by taxi. There is also a subway station nearby. Get off at Guanyinshan Station and walk for 5 minutes. Hotel room: The hotel was built in 2017, but it is very well maintained. There is a large sensor sunflower at the hotel entrance. It blooms when people walk by, which is very photogenic. In the lobby, there is a large flower display and Chinese New Year decorations. I stayed in an executive sea view room. The large floor-to-ceiling windows face the sea, so you can watch the sunrise from the bed. The room is equipped with a capsule coffee machine and JOHN MASTERS organic toiletries. It is clean and tidy. My friend stayed in a family suite with her child. There is a bunk bed for the child, and the room is equipped with bubble balls, sand digging tools, children's slippers, toiletries, and a small toilet ladder for children. The various themes make children very happy. Hotel facilities: There is a children's play area of more than 500 square meters, where you can book various DIY classes. It is definitely a paradise for children. The gym is more than 3,000 square meters, which is the largest and most complete hotel gym I have ever seen. Together with the heated swimming pool, it is a great place for sports lovers. Women can also enjoy a spa at the hotel. In addition to the breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets at S.E. Asia Kitchen & Bar on the first floor, there is also the Chinese restaurant Fu Gong. I will share more about it later. The executive lounge is on the fourth floor. The breakfast in the executive lounge is very rich. There is a large terrace and a bubble house, where you can enjoy breakfast while admiring the sea view. Nearby attractions: The beach is within walking distance. You can take photos of Guanyin Temple and the hotel in the same frame. You can also ask the concierge to call a car to take you to Guanyin Temple. You can enjoy the sea breeze in Xiamen while playing in the sand at sunrise and sunset. It takes 20 minutes by taxi to Nanputuo Temple. We went there on the 15th day of the 12th lunar month. It was very lively. You can also see if there are any popular bracelets you like. It takes about 20 minutes by taxi to Shangli Reservoir, where you can walk along the long trail in Xiamen, look at Kinmen, take photos of the "Big Gluten" revolving building, and watch the sunset at Pan Gui Tower. Everything is beautiful.

Stay at the 100th Shangri-La Hotel✨✨ Full of ritual and exclusivity ✨ - The 100th way to love yourself, I arranged my first New Year trip in 2025, and I chose to embrace the Shangri-La in Xiamen.

✈️I just had time recently, so I took my family to Xiamen for a trip When traveling with family and children, it is important to book a hotel with complete hardware and software A hotel where everyone can eat, drink and have fun without getting tired🏨 I've already prepared a strategy this time. Booked to Xiamen Shangri-La 🏨 - The moment I arrived at the hotel, I was pleasantly surprised. The Christmas decorations in the lobby create a festive atmosphere The baby picked up the 🎁box and said there was a big gift inside 😂 - The room is a sea view room, open the curtains to see the sun and the waves🌊 Just looking at it makes me feel good. In the morning, I can open the curtains and see the sunrise over the sea. It's so beautiful! The room was thoughtfully prepared with fruits and high-end delicacies, just in time for an afternoon tea with a sea view 😆 As soon as the little beast settled in the room, he couldn't wait to go play. The hotel has a 530 square meter children's playground There are ocean ball pools, rotating slides, spring trampolines, etc. Which child can walk after seeing this? During the few days I stayed there, I came here several times a day. The hotel also has some special courses Some parent-child activities such as intangible cultural heritage lacquer fans and Kung Fu tea are interesting and fun. - In the evening, you can take your family to the beach. The hotel has tools for digging sand. It takes only 5 minutes to walk from the hotel to Guanyinshan Beach. Playing in the sea, surfing and digging sand until dark There are several restaurants in the hotel, including Chinese, Western and buffet restaurants. We chose Xinshitang Chaoshan Hotpot Buffet The food is fresh and tasty, and is suitable for all ages. The Xiamen-style snacks here are very authentic, don’t miss it! - In addition to the hotel, there are many fun places nearby, including Xiamen University and Gulangyu Island. Traveling like this, staying in this hotel for a few days, my whole body and mind will feel relaxed.

Xiamen Shangri-La Hotel Our room is a sea view room on the executive floor. The room layout is rather cramped, the toilet is a bit crowded, and the toilet is a Toto fully automatic. Due to the small space, if someone is using the wash basin, the toilet lid will keep opening and closing, which is a bit funny. A large fruit plate and pastries were given, including grapes, lychees, peaches, etc., which were very nice. A special sweet soup was also given when we made our first turn down, but it was very sweet and not tasty. We stayed for 3 nights and then nothing for the next few days. The gym is pretty good, with complete equipment and a lot of space. The swimming pool has four lanes but is usually crowded. There is a steam room and hot tub in the women's locker room. There were two stone reclining chairs but both had issues, they would not heat up. The hygiene conditions are not ideal. I swim every night and find towels and other debris left by guests in the hot tub. It is unclear how often the water is changed and cleaned. The sanitary conditions of the public areas in the lobby are worrisome. According to my husband, the men's restroom is full of cigarette butts and dirty things, making it almost unusable. The Deluxe Room is on the fourth floor and has a large sea view terrace where you can sit. If it weren't so hot right now, it would be a beautiful place. The food and beverage at the Horizon Club is very limited, with only fruits and two types of pastries in the afternoon. Happy hour in the evening is from 17:30 to 19:30, with a small buffet. There are usually three types of cold cuts, including vegetable salad, cheese, smoked fish, and occasionally smoked salmon. There are usually five hot dishes, three of which are the same every day, namely butter vegetables (super unpalatable, tasteless), spiced rolls (very greasy and without water chestnuts), and pasta. These three dishes were exactly the same every day during our three-day stay! The other two items are meat, such as curry pork, Orleans chicken, etc. They are all cheap and filling, with no quality at all. There is also white porridge with pickled vegetables, three kinds of steamed food, corn, steamed buns, meat dumplings or siomai, which are all common breakfast items. There are quite a lot of fruits, including watermelon, cantaloupe, mango, and lychee. The desserts are brought up from the buffet downstairs and are the highlight of the entire buffet. They are quite delicious, but they are almost the same every day. I feel the kitchen is very perfunctory and there are no real dishes to speak of. The service at the Horizon Club is excellent. Every employee is very responsible and has a very good service attitude. Susan is smart and studious. She likes to learn how to make cocktails and the cocktails she makes are very good. Ms. Zhang Mei at breakfast was smart and clever, her service was proactive and enthusiastic, and she spared no effort to meet the needs of the guests, which added a lot to our hotel experience. She is definitely a valuable asset of the hotel!

It is often said that Xiamen is a city that has lost its popularity as an internet-famous destination, but I can only say that you don't know how to enjoy it. This city is perfect for both exclusive quality experiences and internet-famous check-ins. A 3-5 day trip is just right. - 📅My Recommended Itinerary Day 1: Arrive in Xiamen, visit Jimei School Village, Xiamen Bay Cycling Island, and the Ten-Mile Long Ladder for sunset (outside the island) Day 2: Botanical Garden, Shapowei, Nanputuo Temple, Ding'ao Cat Street, Huangcuo Beach, Zengcuo'an Day 3: Zhongshan Road, Xiamen Eight Markets, Lujiang Avenue, Haicang Bridge for sunset Day 4: Visit Gulangyu Island Day 5: Gulangyu Island, leave Xiamen - 📷Attraction Introduction 1⃣️The most recommended places are Jimei School Village, Lujiang Avenue, Gulangyu Island, Botanical Garden, and Shapowei. The first three are historical architectural complexes, artistic and retro, where you can glimpse the century-old history of Xiamen, very flavorful. The Botanical Garden and Shapowei are great for photo ops and check-ins, very nice. 2⃣️If you want to see the sea, Guanyin Mountain and Huangcuo Beach are better, facing the open sea with good beaches. The Ten-Mile Long Ladder is mostly mudflats, unbearable to look at after the tide recedes. 3⃣️You must visit Gulangyu Island, and you must stay there for a night. Gulangyu Island at night is quiet and beautiful. Remember to buy your ferry tickets in advance. - 🏨Accommodation Recommendations 1⃣️There are many international hotels in Xiamen. For sea views, I recommend Conrad, Indigo, Shangri-La, and Hualuxe. For high-quality enjoyment, W Hotel, Waldorf Astoria, Andaz, and Seaview Resort. 2⃣️If you want to stay in a guesthouse, Zengcuo'an is relatively cheap, and there are some quality ones in Huangcuo and Gulangyu Island. - 🍜Food Recommendations 1⃣️If you like the local vibe and authentic Xiamen snacks, you can go to the Eight Markets and Zhongshan Road area, where there are more stalls at night. Yuehua Satay Noodles, Jukou Mixed Noodles, and Ajijai are all highly recommended. 2⃣️Shapowei has many artistic dining places, and Zengcuo'an is a food street, similar to other food streets in China.

"She said." Xiamen is a city that I visit many times a year. This "sea garden" is both traditional and trendy. While enjoying the lazy and artistic atmosphere, you can also see the endless flow of mountains and seas. Bodi's exploration of Minnan's story is ups and downs, profound, all starting from Shangri-La Xiamen. •Room• Shangri-La Xiamen is located on the seaside of the island road of Xiamen Island. You can watch the beautiful 180° sunrise over the east coast of the strait in the room and greet the first ray of morning light on Egret Island. Stepping into the luxury tower sea view room, in front of the large floor-to-ceiling glass window, the unobstructed sea view, a few leisurely fishing boats, people walking freely on the beach, the expectations of Xiamen and the sea view in my impression, are realized in an instant. The next morning, you can overlook the people's livelihood in Kinmen without leaving the room, use the aroma of coffee and the sunrise over the sea to wake up the holiday mood of the day, it couldn't be more appropriate. •Dining Experience• 【Luxury Tower Strait East Coast Sea View Semi-Buffet Breakfast】 As a vacationer in Xiamen, I prefer to enjoy a delicate seafood satay noodle and Xiamen local dim sum while enjoying the sea view. Frequent travelers who love Western breakfast should not miss the French toast and Benedict eggs here. 【Xinshi Tang Old Taste Buffet Restaurant】 It's not an exaggeration to say that it's one of the few buffet restaurants that I've tasted recently that are both attentive and delicious. In addition to the fresh seafood stalls, you can see that the Xiamen local food stalls have also put a lot of thought into it, intending to give foreign tourists a real and deep memory of food. 【Fugangxuan Chinese Restaurant】 Here you can taste Minnan specialty dishes and immerse yourself in the culture of the old Xiamen dock. The Minnan-style red brick walls and murals in the restaurant are places where many diners take photos to commemorate. Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Bodi also experienced the charm of Minnan bobing culture in Fugangxuan, and had a different understanding of the humor and vitality of this city. 【Hotel Lobby Bar】 Having a themed afternoon tea in a spacious space with a ten-meter-high large floor-to-ceiling window is the best choice for girlfriends' gatherings and business negotiations. The autumn-themed afternoon tea that Bodi experienced this time added a lot of touch to the taste buds in this early autumn season. In the coming Mid-Autumn Festival, the hotel will also hold a moon-viewing party in the sea-view sky garden. The beautiful scene of "the moon rising from the sea" in Shangri-La Xiamen with family will definitely leave more romantic memories of the festival, right? •Recreation Experience• The NX Fitness Club of Shangri-La Xiamen, with its trendy fitness equipment and rich class content, really caught my eye. The indoor children's club also creates a "discharge" paradise for the treasure dads and treasure moms who travel with their children. •Local Experience CULTURAL AND SIGHTS• It only takes about 30 minutes by car from the hotel to local hot spots such as Gulangyu, Jimei School Village, and Shapowei. The hotel also creates a variety of intangible cultural heritage immersive experiences for guests, such as Minnan bobing exhibition, Xunpu Women-Hairpin Flower Circle, Minnan traditional kung fu tea customs, etc., take photos and post circles, feel the tradition, more fun without leaving the hotel is waiting for everyone to slowly discover.

🌊I have been to Xiamen twice, the last time was in summer and this time was in winter. There are not many tourists, the air tickets are cheap, there is no traffic jam on the road when driving, and there is no queue for delicious food. The uncrowded winter is more suitable for traveling with children. Although there is less joy of going into the sea, the experience and comfort are perfect. 🏨For parent-child travel, accommodation is the top priority. Only by getting enough rest can you have more fun. It is even more important for the children to stay well. Therefore, it is particularly important to choose a suitable parent-child hotel every time you travel. This time we stayed at Shangri-La Hotel for two nights, and both children were very satisfied. 🌟Hotel environment: The hotel is located on the east bank of Huandao Road. It is located in Siming District, very close to the sea and across the sea from Baodao Island. The lobby is grand, the service staff greeted us proactively, took our suitcases and were very enthusiastic. The G floor of the hotel leads directly to Guanyinshan Beach, and the hotel also gives children sand-digging toys, which is convenient and worry-free. Welcome fruits were prepared in the room. I saw two children taking the initiative to prepare slippers and toiletries for the children, and also added a lot of bottled water and a new quilt. 🌟Hotel Facilities: What attracted me most was the children's playground and children's activity courses. The hotel is equipped with Chinese and Western restaurants, lobby bar, indoor heated swimming pool and gym. The rooms are spacious and equipped with bathtubs. Room service is available upon request. 🌟Hotel breakfast: The all-day restaurant on the first floor offers a rich variety of Western-style breakfasts, as well as local specialties such as satay noodles. The seasonal fruits are very fresh, and the freshly made noodles and dumplings are also very delicious. Children's tableware will be provided if there are children, and takeaway service is also available for freshly ground coffee. ‼ ️Tips: 💕I saw someone say that the hotel's children's playground and children's club courses are charged. When I went there, it might be the off-season, and it was free for hotel guests. You can call the hotel in advance to inquire whether there is a charge. 💕There are different packages on each platform, some include children's playgrounds, some include afternoon tea, and some include free tickets to tourist attractions. If you compare more, you will find that there are price differences.

Last week, I signed up for the My Weekend Plan at Shangri-La Hotel, Xiamen, and experienced a parent-child trip. The near 500-seat indoor playground is divided into a child's area and a children's area. The playground also offers different courses, including yoga, baking, dancing and gardening. Only need to bring the child into the park, there is a teacher to take over, no need to worry. We can also take a seat in the center of the playground. The teacher will even take the children to eat and eat snacks and take a lunch break in the tent. Of course, I went to swim fitness, and Mommy went to experience a professional spa. For lunch, enjoy the top dishes in the hotel's Chinese restaurant, and finally have a laid-back afternoon tea, perfect.
