The booking panel shows the current amount for each option and carries your selected date and party size into the cart. Review the amount before checkout and see the payment terms for the balance schedule.

Xiamen and Gulangyu island charm

Wandered car-free Gulangyu with its colonial villas and sea views, ate amazing seafood and listened to piano music drifting around. So pretty and relaxed. Fell completely in love.
