Adagio Reindeer - Annex Cottage

Let the hustle and bustle melt in the sea breeze

When you enter the Shitiping scenic area, the azure ocean jumps into the sight, and the fresh sea breeze brings its greeting. The receptionist cordially leads you to Adagio．Shihtiping, the main building, to go through the check-in ritual. The butler carries a wooden plate at the table, offering essence oils and keys with key chains made of local materials for you to choose the fragrance for this trip. Not yet into the room, you have relaxed because of the remnant of the aroma.

Bidding the main building farewell, you leave the scenic area, seeing a faint path paved with slates. At the end of the path stands a cottage. As its name—Annex—suggests, it leaves the main building, being away from the bustling visitors coming for Shitiping. With the tranquility given by the mountain wilderness, this cottage is accompanied by a banana orchard, which preserves your privacy but hinders no picturesque view. Here, you can enjoy the vacation away from the hustle and bustle and the broad view without interruption.

A vocation of a cottage owner

Once entering the door, you are welcomed by a corridor leading you to the French windows, through which you can see Pistia stratiotes spread over the pond around the cabin. The huge windowpane also allows warm sunshine to visit the door of your rooms. Taking off shoes and walking along the corridor, you can easily reach the banana orchard outside the windows on the side of the living room.

After unloading luggage, you can play a relaxing album released by Wind Music, picking one of the books on the shelf by the dining table. Either sitting or lying down in the spacious living room or reading on the chaise longue by the window in the room is a good option. Once in a while, when you lift the head, looking out of the window, the clear view of mountains and horizon will always be there. After a bath at night, the pleasant smell lingers and will accompany you at the silent night, making you lie on the comfortable bed with relaxation.

Taste the delightful flavor of life

When the sun shines through the smoke of cloud, you stroll with the rising sun to Adagio・Shihtiping, enjoying the seafood breakfast served in a nine-dish box. Besides the big breakfast, guests of Adagio will be provided with the afternoon tea and granted the privilege of booking the creative cuisine served exclusively for the guests. By the sea view, you relish the exquisite flavor of life bite by bite.

You ramble under the starry night to the cottage after visiting the gifts Hualien is endowed by the God of Nature during the day and having the dinner when the moon rises to the horizon. In this leisure evening, you sit or lie on the sofa, listening to music and reading books. Next day, going up to the cuesta through the mist and the lightening darkness in the early morning to appreciate the sunrise, you push thoughts out of your mind, letting them wander freely with the beat of waves. The magnificent mountains leaning on the azure sky relax you. There is no time to be busy. By the end of the day, the sunshine drips on every trace of lives and also into the bottom of your heart. You can help but lift your mouth corner, feeling lucky to have a perfect vacation.
