Laurel Villa 桂月村民宿, Sun Moon Lake 日月潭

This is part of the fun Taiwan travel series. View the full itinerary here.

Laurel Villa 桂月村民宿 is a minsu that came highly recommended by TripAdvisor users. Without hesitation, we knew that this would be the best choice. And we were right!

Firstly, it's located in an extremely convenient spot. It's just right opposite the Shueishe Pier. Imagine staying so close at a fraction of the price. Of course, we did not have lake views but who needs it when you can walk right across the street to see it?


There are also scores of shops and restaurants along the same stretch.



The minsu itself is very well maintained and rooms were big, clean and comfortable.


It might not look remarkable from the outside, but you will be blown away once you step inside.

There's even a back door leading to another side of the lake where less visitors are.
It's facing the car park and leads to the bicycle lane.


Breakfast is available, and I highly recommend opting for it.

The owners were so friendly and hospitable that it feels like home.


Tip: if you plan to take the speedboat cruise, buy them from the minsu. There's a discount. For locals, I think there's a special price.
