"This is a gorgeous "resort" hotel - fully 5-star aesthetic, amenities, and service all around! With several other sister properties on the island (similarly named "Lealea", quite confusing), you can't miss this grande dame with its expansive facade that you'll see if arriving from the pier.

It's a historical building built entirely with cypress wood. Check out the intricate architectural details of the lobby, particularly the raised ceiling! Same vibe in the all-wood, spacious double room we stayed in. Surprised, however, to find the equally spacious and modern, newly renovated bathroom (with separate bathtub and shower).
Due to its historical nature, the hotel's guestrooms are laid out on two floors and there are no elevators; but no worries, the hotel staff will eagerly carry all of your luggage to/from your room (no need to tip in Taiwan apparently).
The breakfast buffet is served in the gorgeous, lakeside dining room with a panoramic view. You have to choose from 1 of 2 service shifts: 7 or 8:45am. Recommend the later one unless you want to "fight" with the massive crowd in the 7am service. Food selection and quality are wonderful, with both chinese and western options.
Our stay included some coupons for various recreational activities to include a free one-hour rental of regular/electric bicycles, which we gladly took advantage of. On departure, the concierge was very helpful in arranging for a taxi to the Shuishe bus stop for our bus ride back to Taichung."
