surfers garden

Second time staying here in Surfer's Garden. Super friendly to foreigners. Staff can speak some conversational English. Great vibes here if you love active travel with local night life experience. It's located in the village, but it's easy to reach out to the beach line just in 10-15 min walk or several minutes on a e-scooter that you can rent directly in the store. Welcome to negotiate for a better rent price 😁. 60 - ＞ 40 RMB. If you are lucky, you might can find a lower price in the village. Many local food stores and convenience stores just outside of hotel. For renting the surf board, I'd recommend go directly to the stands right on the beach (right side of the beach, closer the bridge that connects the island with living compound). 80-100 RMB per board for one time use (a couple of hours). Absolutely must go to Kaya and other bars for late drinking and partying! You can meet lots of cool young Chinese people.

The vibe at Surfers Garden is chill and cool but a little bit too much. My room had no towels, no toilet paper. Cabinet to store my things in the shared room couldn’t lock. The room itself can’t lock from the outside as well and too often when I was looking for someone at the reception there were no one … When you finally catch someone to give you a towel, be aware that it’s a disposable towel. So better bring your own. In the morning, don’t hope to get a coffee at their bar before 9am or 10am. The whole place looks a bit messy and the reception space looks unfinished. Staff is friendly tho. The guesthouse is surrounded by many little shops and local restaurants. You can reach the Ri Yue Wan beach where you will find bar/coffee, clubs, shops, surfing clubs etc. in 15 min walking or 5min by e-bike. Ri Yue Wan beach area is definitely the place to be to enjoy a good “beach/surfer” vibe sipping a cocktail in front of the beach. At night, this place turn into a music festival area where everyone display live show music and DJ and expect fireworks on the beach almost every 15min. If you are looking for surfing club in this area, I would recommend to check Shaka surf club. Good service, good price, and so far the most professional to me at Ri Yue Wan.

looks the hostel used the cheapest furniture from taobao and decorated with it. the table is not stable, the bed is falling apart, the bathroom is below standards. you will get a single use towel. not cheap, for a hostel.

Surfers garden is located in the village of RiYue, not far from the beach. It is a surfers hotel with just the right vibe. A bit greek style, with a coffee bar and a guitar. The guy who usually makes the coffee wasn't there, so we did it ourselves. The atmosphere in the hotel is laid back. Next to the reception area is an open living room/instruction room, with a collection of surf- and skate boards. The room itself was clean and fresh, had a nice view of the garden but the beds were a bit hard.

It’s a 20 min walk to the beach - I’d recommend renting a scooter if you are staying for more than a night. The walking route is through some dusty road in repair and you have to cross some sort of highway - not the most convenient. Though it’s located in a lively neighborhood with lots of food options. The reception area is sort of messy and there’s no real space to hangout. It feels more like an unfinished lobby space with carton boxes on one side and work out equipments on another. Could be better so arriving residents can feel more welcomed.

The service was okay. When we wanted to upgrade our room to something better, they were very nice and helped us get another room which wasn't much more expensive. The facilities were okay too. It's a pretty chill place so I wasn't expecting much. The beds were nice and soft. The air conditioning worked well. I like the screen projector. It's close to a nice hot pot and late night barbecue place too. We were able to get food after 3 AM, which is a plus.

Friendly staff, restaurants and coffee available either side of the accommodation. Beach is 8 minutes walk away.

房間很棒，是田新村為數不多有床簾的青旅。而且衞浴在房間內，很方便。外面的小院子和公共區也很大。 位置在村裡比較中心，吃早餐吃粉都挺方便。 門略微不隔音，晚上八九點比較吵，好在十點多之後外面也比較安靜了。 整體感覺超棒，價格也不貴。

房間寬敞明亮，整潔，東西齊全，位置出行方便，店家也好説話，好評
