Siyuan Ju Homestay

Everything. Great location. Lovely architecture. Great and friendly owners.

The wonderful Taiwanese elderly couple running this place went absolutely above and beyond to make this an unforgettable and beautiful experience. We loved every second of staying here. They even give you four options for breakfast, we chose the salty fried egg sticks which were super delicious and accompanied by some super delicious bananas and other yummy surprises. The hosts are very very kind and helpful. They know the area well and their house is a haven of calm, beauty and comfort. Do yourself a favor and book this special place, the location is not only practical for visiting Puli (night market on the weekend is amazing) and Sun Moon Lake, it's also in a very unique setting nestled between forest, plantations, and a river. We were a bit bummed we couldn't speak Mandarin to talk more to our lovely hosts, but it definitely helps using a translation app. Incredibly respectful and mindful people and a really quiet setting. Could not recommend this place more!

The house is beautiful, full of charm, in the middle of nature, a good place to rest and relax. It is quite big so we were really at ease even with our two young kids running around. The landlord, who lives upstairs , was very kind to us and very, very helpful. As the house is located outside town, it is easier to have your own transportation. However we didn't and we managed to visit around without any problem as there is a bus stop just in front of the house going to Puli. It just needs a bit of planning as the bus is not frequent (#6665).

Nothing...

The house is amazing, very special, definitely just that is worth it , Bed is comfortable, Goof hot water . The location is secluded and beautiful, the hosts are very friendly, and make excellent tea , Definitely recommend staying there .

One of the rooms has a shated bathroom, that's not The hosts problem, but a problem with the search filter on booking.com , It says on the room itself there is no bathroom, But I don't really look once I place the filter on the site . It's not a big deal , as its only shared with the owner and the other rooms have one , Is more of a heads up 😊

The owners were very nice and friendly, gave us recommendations and made us feel at home

There was very little privacy: the doors were largely unlocked and sound proofing nonexistent. The bathroom was also extremely basic and generally not comfortable.
