Breathe with Nature and Return to Tranquility Embraced by the Forest

The ripples of the green pool water reflect the beautiful shadows of trees in your mind. Close your eyes and let the mountain breeze brush against your body. Passing by the Longteng Broken Bridge, you are driving on the mountain road to Sanyi, Miaoli County. When the car enters ChooArt Villa, the fragrance of flowers and plants floats in the air and a large striped-dove flies in the sky. Behind the hidden wooden door, your exclusive holiday is expecting your arrival. Here, you breathe with nature, while the mountain and woods embrace you with their beauty.

 

 

Share with Nature the Leisurely Vacation in Mountain Woods

Under the rooftop garden of irises, the vine-covered buildings of ChooArt Villa in the valley are beautifully arranged in a haphazard way like stylish tree houses, while staying close to nature. You enter the lobby with the floor-to-ceiling windows and doors, have a cup of coffee and rest for a bit. Sit in the sofa chair by the glass window, browse through some magazines or books, take in the scenery and just enjoy the leisurely time.

 

Step down the outdoor stairs, and you find yourself at the pool, where the verdant camphor woods above provide you with shade. When the wind blows, the tree branches and leaves flutter, and the shadows on the spring water sway to a natural rhythm. You sit on the deck chair as your lover floats relaxingly in the water. Your cheerful mood is accompanied by the chirping of the birds. Everything is just so delightful and at ease.

 
 

Sun, Tree, River, and Moon; Planting Four Relaxing Sleep Spaces

Being built along the contour of the hill, four double rooms of ChooArt share a simple character, and they breathe and live with the woods. Walking into the “Tree Spring” double room, time seems to slow down here. In the bedroom space, three camphor trees stretching up toward the light are surrounded by the glass windows. Get closer to the window, and you’d enjoy the relaxing melody composed by the bamboo forest and the creek outside. Take off your clothes and get through the U-shaped corridor by the greenery balcony, you’ll arrive at the spacious bathroom with the forest view.

 

The “Sunny River” room offers the view of the ruins of the Broken Bridge. You may listen to the sound of running water and enjoy the quiet peace here. The sunlight penetrates the transparent floor-to-ceiling gauze curtains of the “First Sun” room, while the bed with the gauze canopy brings you a sense of the romantic holiday. You can also walk through the glass passage with the reflection of the blue sky to the bathroom. In the “Tipsy Moon” room, you can admire the enchanting starry sky and the lush scenery.

 
 

Taste the Authentic Taiwanese Flavor in the Creative Cuisine

As your stay at ChooArt includes two meals, you can enjoy the culinary delights that incorporate creative ideas with local ingredients. In the evening, you step into the dining room on the second floor, where the chef will demonstrate how the food is carefully prepared in the open kitchen. There are refreshing appetizers, hearty salads, and creative dishes with a variety of artistic senses. Of course, the highlight would be the surf and turf meal combined with the seared short beef rib and coral hind from Penghu, bringing the perfect ending to the evening. In the morning, the breakfast contains a bowl of warm vegetable porridge and small dishes made with the ingredients purchased from the local farmers, all with simple seasoning for you to savor the most natural flavors.

 

The name of the villa, ChooArt, is the Taiwanese word for trees, representing a tribute to the land and local hospitality. The team is dedicated to the coexistence of the ecologically sustainable architecture and nature. This dedication also leads ChooArt Villa to be the Gold Winner of the 2017 FIABCI World Prix d’Excellence Environmental Award (as “Oscars Award” of the real estate industry). The team believes that a good balance can be achieved by planting trees while building houses. Just like Brian, the amicable CEO, said: “A lot of things should not be taken for granted, we must learn how to adapt to nature.” His respect for the earth also deeply affects the employees of ChooArt. Working as a staff here, not only one’s capability is a must, but the attitude one bears would be the key. The staff here learn from nature while serving each traveler wholeheartedly.

 

Before you leave, come to the lobby and enjoy some Chinese tea and a good chat with the tea master. With a cup of fine tea, reserve some quiet time for yourself. The aroma drifting in the air just reminds you of the thoughtfulness of ChooArt and the wonderfulness of being embraced by the forest.
