When it's Nantou Taiwan, the famous tourist spot is Sun Moon Lake! Nice atmosphere but crowded, So, this time we tried a little away from crowded townships and booked. Lake side resort! Fantastic, big rooms, bath area is as similar to a room size of some hotels, most of the pruvate un room bath areas are facing the lake with glass windows, hot spring water tubs and beach beds inside the bathroom. Full relaxed atmosphere, The downside is their restaurant, the floating restaurant is just a basic meal room, meals are eastern type food but most of the Taiwanese who travelled with me doesn't like the food either. Hotel privide free coupons, if you like to go for public baths in the area. From Highspeed rail station to hotel by Taxi is nearly 1.5 hrs and costs 1450NT$ I deeply recomend staying in this property, if food is not a big issue!

“Suprised and delighted - an enchanting and quiet place in the middle of Taiwan”

We were recommended a visit to Sun Moon Lake during our stay in Taiwan. We'd reserved at the Lakeside Resort with the idea that we'd be staying somewhere a little less 'touristy' and quieter than Sun Moon Lake properties, and we'd drive to visit the lake.

We were recommended a visit to Sun Moon Lake during our stay in Taiwan. We'd reserved at the Lakeside Resort with the idea that we'd be staying somewhere a little less 'touristy' and quieter than Sun Moon Lake properties, and we'd drive to visit the lake. We took a high speed train (Fabulous value) from Taipei to Taichung and picked up a car from "Car Plus" - not cheap, but terrific service and an English speaking GPS - we could plug in the phone number to get the destination, and this worked beautifully. The Lakeside Resort is a bit outside Puli, and from our experience, a place visited by Taiwanese vacationers. Our 3 word Mandarin vocabulary and hand gestures contributed a little to successful communication; mostly, the front desk staff and others went out of their way being friendly and helpful, and we managed well. As elsewhere in Taiwan, folks were overwhelmingly friendly and good-humoured. Our 'room' turned out to be a 1000 sq ft apartment - living room, dining area (just a fridge and kettle, no kitchen facilities), huge bedroom, huge bathroom, with bedroom and bathroom windows looking over Liyu Lake - a small lake teaming with life - fish, frogs, ducks, etc. - the resort actually does sit on the lake on concrete pillars. No swimming (not at Sun Moon Lake, either, save for one day of the year) but a pool and boats available. We found it enchanting and a peaceful break after Taipei. Exploring the area was made easier with the car, and lots of places to walk and hike. 'Would definitely stay here rather than Sun Moon Lake, having seen both. An authentic 'Taiwanese' spot. Breakfast offered was quite Asian and just fine; a car needed to get a broader variety of restaurant choices.
