Taroko Sialin Coffee Farm Homestay

We loved the spacious room. The garden outside was so relaxing and having the mountains as our backdrop was truly inspiring. The accomodation was close to Taroko Gorge. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The hosts shared the indigenous culture and my kids still wear the bead bracelet they made here.

I like its tranquility and the great hospitality of host Lisa. It feels like home and Lisa’s breakfast & coffee was delicious! Will stay here again when we revisit Hualien.

I don’t think there are enough words to describe our experience at George Coffee Homestay. It’s a beautiful location in the heart of Taroko, perfect if you want to go visit the national park. The hosts are just the most welcoming and warmest people I’ve ever met. They make you feel like home right away and truly go the extra mile to make sure you having a great time by recommending places to eat, trails, and things to visit. They were so kind and though this was not part of their responsibility, they’ve taken time to introduce us to the town, culture of Taroko people, history, traditions and a little bit of their beautiful and unique family story. We finished the night by making our own lucky bracelets which I personally loved and the highlight of the night was them playing a song that Boya wrote to Lisa about their love story. The room is super nice and big, cozy and very clean. The breakfast was delicious every morning and the best part if of course drinking their own coffee. If you’re looking for a place in Taroko, you don’t want to miss out on George Homestay! :)

Nothing really.

Charming family owners. Personal B&B experience where they take an interest in you and want to visit/chat with you. They had the kids do a crafts activity in the evening. Took a morning run to Makbo beach nearby which was glorious.

The hosts are outstanding! And the location is perfect for visiting Taroko Gorge—much better than Hualien! Xincheng Station is much closer.

Dark bathrooms—need more light!!

If you are visiting Taroko, you really must stay here! Lisa and Boya are two of the kindest people I’ve ever met. Once we arrived, Boya gave us a list of great local places for dinner, then he gave us a night tour of the nearby Taroko Indigenous village where he grew up and told us about Taroko culture and history. Lisa showed us how to make bracelets from local seeds then they played music and sang songs that Boya wrote about their love story. Breakfast was wonderful both days, and they served us amazing coffee that they grew on their farm! They also helped us get permits for Zhuilu old trail, which you have to do over a month in advance. The location of the guesthouse is very close to the national park.

Nothing

Great location, large room, lovingly prepared breakfast and coffee and most of all the fantastic hosts Lisa and Boya. They really went the extra mile, recommend places to eat and hikes, introduce us to their culture and made the whole stay amazing.

It is close to the railway, so occasionally you hear a train, but it didn’t bother us much.
