Shangri-La Xiamen

Stayed here three times this past year, and I love it more every time! Compared to my last visit, the gym has been rearranged and got some new equipment—the size and gear are absolute top-tier compared to other hotels. The pool wasn't crowded, and the linens and slippers have all been replaced with new ones. Special thanks to Yulia for helping arrange the room. The view was amazing cubed, (˶‾᷄ ⁻̫ ‾᷅˵). The Executive Lounge service is still as stellar as ever—big thanks to Gina too~ I'll definitely be back! An unbeatable location for catching the sunrise at Guanyinshan Beach; it's quiet yet breathtaking. Woke up 20 minutes before sunrise and took a leisurely 5-minute stroll to the beach (might be because I know the way and walk fast), totally showed it off with zero filters! ٩(˃̶͈̀௰˂̶͈́)و

Overall, our stay at the Shangri-La Xiamen was a thoroughly delightful experience. Before our arrival, Yulia took the initiative to contact us in advance and thoughtfully sent us an exclusive guide to the hotel. It included detailed introductions to the hotel facilities and local sightseeing recommendations, which was extremely useful and saved us a lot of time on research. Yunia was also incredibly warm and attentive; after learning about our itinerary, she helped arrange a late check-out for us, making our trip much more relaxed and flexible.

Overall, I'm very satisfied. The hotel's frontline sea view is absolutely stunning, with the sea breeze, blue sky, and sandy beach, making it feel like a perfect vacation. The location is also convenient, close to the subway station, so staying here is a great choice when visiting Xiamen. However, it's a bit far from the core scenic spots. Coinciding with the double holidays, the hotel offered a lot of activities, including parent-child crafts, festive photo booths, and interactive games. Our butler, Yulia, contacted us in advance to arrange the room for our arrival. The kids' club has a rich variety of activities, and the children loved the swimming pool. The most convenient part is its proximity to the beach, allowing us to take the kids digging for sand anytime. Yunia, a guest service agent in the lobby, directed us to the closest route to the beach, which was very helpful.

The sea view from the room was incredibly relaxing; opening the floor-to-ceiling windows immediately brought the seaside vibe to life. The hotel's transportation is very convenient, not far from the subway station, making it easy to get to commercial areas and attractions. Our butler, Yulia, contacted us in advance to confirm our needs and schedule, and Yunia helped us book activities. During the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays, there were many festive activities with different parent-child arrangements every day, so adults wouldn't get bored either. The kids' favorite spots were the indoor and outdoor playgrounds and the swimming pools. Digging in the sand by the sea was also convenient; the little ones kept asking to go to the beach every day. The restaurant gets crowded during holidays, so a short wait might be necessary.

The kids loved the playground and could go anytime during our stay. The簪花拍照 experience was a bit disappointing, especially after paying an extra thousand. The Tesla superchargers were very convenient (located in the ground parking lot, there are three Tesla charging stations).

The sea view from the hotel was incredibly soothing; watching the sea in the morning and taking evening strolls were both very therapeutic. The location was also convenient, close to the subway station, making travel with kids, whether by taxi or public transport, hassle-free. During the dual holidays, the hotel offered a wide array of activities, like parent-child crafts, garden parties, and festive interactions, all of which the children adored. Our butler, Yulia, contacted us in advance and helped us book activities early, which was super convenient. The kids' play area was well-sectioned, and the pool was clean, keeping the children very happy. The biggest surprise was how close the hotel was to the beach, allowing us to dig in the sand every day. A minor drawback was that the pool could get a bit crowded during holidays, but overall, the experience was excellent.

Our stay during the National Day holiday at Shangri-La Xiamen exceeded all expectations! The hotel's proximity to the subway station made getting around incredibly convenient. All the staff were warm, friendly, and provided meticulous and attentive service, responding quickly to any requests. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the overall environment was quiet and relaxing. We even got a complimentary upgrade to a Deluxe Sea View room! My child absolutely loved the beachcombing activity and even caught an octopus. The beach is just a ten-minute walk away, making it a joy to wake up early and watch the sunrise. It was a wonderful surprise to find a hotel with such excellent service during a holiday trip. I highly recommend Shangri-La Xiamen and will definitely choose to stay here again next time!

Having stayed at many hotels with sea views with my kids, our trip to Shangri-La Xiamen really stood out. The room offered fantastic sea views. The hotel is close to the subway station, making it convenient to get to the airport and commercial areas. The Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays were packed with activities, which not only delighted the kids but also made us adults feel the festive atmosphere. The kids' club was clean and safe, the swimming pool was comfortably heated, and digging in the sand by the sea was very convenient. The only minor drawback was that while there was a wide variety of food at breakfast on weekends, it could get a bit crowded when many people were trying to get food. A special shout-out to Yulia for helping us arrange the room and book activities in advance. Highly recommended!

On the first day of check-in, the front desk service was quite decent, and the environment and cleanliness were also good. They kindly provided complimentary sand-play tools and fruit for the kids. On the second day, housekeeping only emptied the trash cans. On the third day, while we were in the room, a staff member knocked twice and, before we even reached the door, unlocked it with their own key card, stating that the cleaning lady requested to change the bed sheets and duvet covers. They changed the sheets and duvet covers, but didn't change the pillowcases, and the floor wasn't swept. The old linens that were replaced were left behind, and the new rolls of toilet paper by the bed and in the bathroom were left unwrapped and placed on the side. We booked a 4-day buffet breakfast. On the first day, the 1st floor was too crowded, so we went to the 4th floor; it was less crowded with fewer food options, and the taste was average, though you could order from an à la carte menu. We skipped breakfast on the second and fourth days. On the third day, we went to the 1st floor—it was extremely crowded. When we looked for a table, it hadn't been cleaned. We asked a waiter to clean it, but they rudely told us that the table was already taken (no one sat there even after we finished our meal). When we asked where we could sit, the waiter replied with a very impatient tone, saying, "Just look and find a table yourself; if there's one, there's one, if not, there isn't." The 1st-floor breakfast had a wide variety of food, but it was very noisy. We went down at 9:30 AM, and many items were already gone. Overall, it was just so-so, probably because our initial expectations were too high.
