Ningbo Xiangshan Seaview Crown Holiday Hotel 🌈Some people say that Xiangshan, Zhejiang, hides China's Maldives. Although it's a bit exaggerated, Xiangshan in June indeed has a tropical style similar to Sanya, Hainan. Maybe we northerners are ignorant, we don't know much about Xiangshan. This time we checked in at the Ningbo Xiangshan Seaview Crown Holiday Hotel, which has long been a popular spot on the internet, and found that it is really an underestimated leisure resort🔮. 🌈The hotel is located in the Shihpu Half Mountain Scenic Area in Xiangshan, built by the mountain and near the sea, with excellent natural environment. This Crown Holiday Hotel is huge, composed of several buildings. The main building on the beach faces the sea, surrounded by a wide independent beach. The indoor swimming pool is beautifully designed, and the 2000 square meter outdoor swimming pool is even more stunning. When the weather is good, every shot is a blockbuster. 🌈The interior decoration incorporates a lot of marine elements, fishing boats, fish baskets, net ropes, ripples and other design inspirations from the sea can be seen everywhere. The panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby are sparkling, and the ocean holiday atmosphere is overwhelming. In the evening, there is a laser water show in the lobby, and the changing water waves in the light and shadow are very eye-catching. 🌈The executive building is on the hillside, facing the distant mountains on one side and overlooking the entire bay on the other. The executive lounge is brightly colored and uniquely designed, full of tropical style. The executive building also has a popular infinity pool, which can take pictures of the effect of blending with the sea. A set of ocean-themed afternoon tea , a glass of rose wine🍾, a leisurely seaside afternoon. 🌈Almost all the rooms in the hotel can see the sea. The executive room I stayed in is very large, with a light and elegant color scheme, simple and comfortable, with a large balcony, and a comfortable large sofa on the balcony. Look at the mountains and the sea🌊, and daze🤔. 🌈Get up early to watch the sunrise🌅 in the room, ride a small electric car🛵 up the winding road, wild flowers on the roadside, ripe bayberries falling from the branches, lost little crabs crawling in front of the car, the distant mudflats, small islands, fishing boats form a light and elegant ink painting, the summer of the East China Sea is intoxicating.

Rice Bucket Mountain, known as the 'Little Xinjiang' of Ningbo, is nestled between mountains and sea, boasting a unique natural landscape. Here, you can escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a rare moment of tranquility among the blue sky, white clouds, sea, and mountains. Stroll along the dam, where flocks of sheep graze leisurely and rocks jump in the waves, as if showing off their beauty. As night falls, camping tents under the starry sky embellish the entire valley, giving a sense of unparalleled romance. Here, you can relax, breathe fresh air, and feel the charm of nature. Whether you come here with family, friends, or lovers, you will harvest unforgettable memories and wonderful experiences.

## Eat a meal of Shipu seafood dinner Shipu seafood famous, come, of course, must not eat. Whether it is to go deep into the market, or to charter a boat to go fishing, you can have a sigh of relief. Look at the must-eat list to find a lunch, I thought it was at the seaside, it was not, it is said to have moved from the seafood street. The feeling is that a private residential building has been transformed into a private room. It is good to stagger the peak of May 1 and there is no one. Looking at the order on the first floor, I saw a lot of things I have never seen before, and I feel that it is really growing knowledge! Learning makes me happy~~ : Its full, and the fire can be fried. Bergamot: Guangdong is called the sea chicken claw, the scientific name barnacle. It looks like a shellfish on the island outside Zhoushan. It is like peeling the palm and the sea otter. It has the same patience as the sea cucumber, which means the Buddha seal of Putuo Mountain. Scallion crab: After eating crabs for a few days, I finally changed my taste. Sauted with scallion is still quite fragrant, and the plate looks beautiful too! braised small octopus: recommended, small octopus ones are very full Q, bite a lot of meat, so satisfied. Fish noodles: local specialties, noodles made with fish, vegetables with mustard, bean sprouts, loofah, pepper, and delicious.

[Ningbo must-have card] Go to Songlan Mountain Beach to see the sea Xiangshan Songlan Mountain Beach, located on the seashore 9 kilometers southeast of Xiangshan County, with a planned area of 25.1 square kilometers. There are as many as five or six beaches in the sand. There are wide sands in the sand, and there are also small beaches that are tens of meters long. The beaches are hard and hard, some are fine and pure, all are golden fine sand. Playing projects include sea yachts and jet skis, as well as tricycles on the sea. Many people play on the beach, some swim in the sea, chase, more noisy at the beach, play with each other, enjoy the waves and waves and pacify. I looked up at the white clouds in the sky, stepped on the gentle waves, felt the breath of the sea, enjoyed the kiss and comfort of the sea, let the sea breeze blow away the anxiety in my heart and enjoy the ease of a moment.

Thanks to the Truffle Awards, I came to this secluded island hotel in Ningbo as an experience officer. 📍[Location] Wuyantou Village, Gaotangdao Township, Xiangshan, a hidden island surrounded by the East China Sea. After passing through the winding country roads with no lights, you will finally reach the secluded place on the cliff. 📷[Design Aesthetics | Oriental Zen on the Cliff] Coexistence with nature: It took 5 years to renovate, the building is embedded in the mountain, and the rocks and walls are seamlessly integrated, as if they were born from the cliff. 📷Wabi-sabi aesthetics: earth tones, vintage furniture, handmade purple copper washbasins, details full of Zen and modern simplicity. Each room has a 270° view of the sea, with a private outdoor pool or hot tub, a view of the sunrise over the sea, and a fireplace at night with the sound of the waves, creating a full atmosphere. 📷The public area is a theater: from the tidal art gallery to the vertical cliff sightseeing elevator to the infinity pool facing the sea, chasing the sunrise over the sea, every step is like an immersive drama, and every shot is like a movie.

Finally made it to Songlan Mountain after bookmarking it for a long time. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but the overcast sky added a unique atmosphere, perfect for capturing emotional shots. Sunrise, beach, long corridor, windmill, lighthouse in the distance... Sitting on the deadwood swing, it felt like a dreamland, clear and bright.

Let yourself grow wild, for the moonlight is waiting for you at the foot of the mountain. 🌙 We met when we were in our teens and now we're in our twenties. I came to this world to seriously smell the flowers and watch the sunrise, cross the ocean and dive into the sea, climb mountains and travel the world... · We decided to watch the sunrise over the sea within a week. We actually went at the end of 2024, just in time for New Year's Eve. I didn't sort out the photos until now. When I opened the album, it was like receiving a precious gift. I couldn't help but smile when I recalled the memories. · 🎆 We watched the fireworks at Hetou Beach, Donghai Banbian Mountain, Ningbo. ⌚️ We watched the fireworks on the last day of 2024. 🌄 We watched the sunrise at Hetou Beach. ⌚️ We watched the sunrise on the first day of 2025. 📍 Shipu Wharf 🏩 We stayed at Xiangshan Banbiantian Guantang Hotel (200 meters from the beach). - ☑️ Xiangshan Banbiantian Guantang Hotel The hotel was busy on New Year's Eve. We booked half a month in advance. I suggest you book in advance too, so you can have a comfortable sleep. ☑️ We drove from Hangzhou to Xiangshan. The journey took about four hours. I suggest you bring some water, snacks, fruit, and staple food. There were three of us, so we had a good rhythm and had a great time. We took a break at Xiangshan Service Area and charged the car. ☑️ We watched the fireworks and sunrise together. The fireworks started at 11 pm and lasted until about 1:30 am. There were three hours of fireworks. Many people set off fireworks together. It was beautiful. We watched the fireworks in a 360-degree circle. If you decide to watch the sunrise, you need to cut down on sleep, but it's worth it. Since people watched the fireworks for a long time the night before, few people got up early, so there were few people on the beach. It felt like the sunrise was just for you. - ✏️ Tips ① You can bring some sparklers to set off fireworks and take some nice photos at night. ② Since you won't get much sleep, you may be tired when driving. I suggest you have breakfast and take a nap after watching the sunrise, and then go home. ③ Xiangshan's swimming crabs, sea snails, and oranges are delicious. You must try them.

Sheraton Ningbo Xiangshan Resort, a dreamlike seaside encounter I recently stayed at the Sheraton Ningbo Xiangshan Resort, and this trip really brought me a lot of surprises, so I must share it with you! 💰Average cost: Only 660 per person to enjoy such a seaside vacation experience, which is very cost-effective, especially when traveling in the off-season, the price advantage is more obvious, which is simply a boon for vacation lovers. ✅Soundproofing/hygiene: The hotel has good soundproofing, which can isolate the noise from the outside world and let me enjoy a quiet vacation. The hygiene is also very good, the rooms and public areas are kept clean and tidy, so you can stay with peace of mind. 🏘️Room type/layout: Special thanks to Cathy for upgrading me to a double balcony open room type, the room is very spacious. One balcony faces the sea, and the other faces the mountains, so you can enjoy the endless sea view while lying in bed. The balcony by the sea is big enough to easily accommodate six people to enjoy the beautiful sunrise over the sea. In the evening, you can enjoy the gentle sea breeze on the balcony, listen to the sound of the waves, and have a drink. This kind of life away from the world is pleasant and beautiful. 🛌Supplies/facilities: The hotel is well-equipped, the lobby bar is very well designed, and the beautiful sea view outside is a great visual experience. The beach is right outside the lobby, and the hotel thoughtfully provides sand play tools, which are perfect for family trips or enjoying a relaxing time on the beach. In addition, the hotel also offers a free one-hour travel photography service, and the photographer is enthusiastic and professional, leaving me with many beautiful memories of my vacation. However, the comfort of the hotel bedding may vary from person to person, and for me, the sleep experience needs to be improved, and there are no sleep aids such as sleep oil eye masks. The breakfast is rich and varied, although there is no cheese commonly found in five-star hotels, the overall quality is still very good. 💗Other tips: - The doorman and concierge service are warm and thoughtful, helping with luggage and leading the way to check-in, and also thoughtfully delivering luggage to the room, the service experience is great. - The hotel is in a quiet location, and you need to drive through a winding mountain road to get there, although the journey is a bit tortuous, it also adds a bit of anticipation. When you arrive, you will find that this is a paradise away from the hustle and bustle, which is very suitable for travelers who want to relax and enjoy the tranquility. Overall, the Sheraton Ningbo Xiangshan Resort left a deep impression on me. With its high cost performance, unique location, and rich supporting services, it created an unforgettable seaside vacation for me.
