Coastline Azure B&B

The elegance of European country life

Walking up to Coastline Azure B&B along the courtyard path, you see dogs at play on the lawn nearby. Remove your shoes and enter the lobby where refined leather seating and wooden furniture bespeak of the classic country life. Shirley, the owner of Coastline Azure B&B, has decorated this space with her favorite owl imagery as well as local works of art. These eclectic elements work seamlessly together to create a style which is totally Shirley. Her floral print dress and graceful smile are as warm and bright as today’s sunshine.

Shirley skillfully manages every detail at Coastline Azure B&B, from the meticulous dinner table arrangements to the inspired decor of each room. Once a part of the bustling world of business, Shirley’s extraordinary sense brought her great success as the chief financial officer of such distinguished companies as Pizza Hut, China Synthetic Rubber Corporation and Levi’s. At the peak of her business career, Shirley also experienced the greatest mental and physical stress of her entire life. After a 21-day period of continuous work with no time off, she realized that without a doubt health turns out to be the greatest wealth. She vowed to give up her busy career and return to a simple life. A love of the Pacific Ocean led her to seek out property in Taidong, with a view of Green Island on the horizon, where she would build her own guesthouse. At Coastline Azure B&B, Shirley delights in leading travellers back into a slower, simpler rhythm where they can enjoy a broad slice of endless azure blue.

A beautiful vacation in the company of mountains and sea

“We only use world-champion roast coffee beans in our house! If you’re lucky, who’s to say you won’t end up with premium Geisha coffee in your cup!” Working from her own ample experience, seasoned traveler Shirley aims to provide her guests with nothing but the best. On a leisurely afternoon, guests are welcomed by a taste of her own afternoon tea preparations: an array of exquisite and delicious snacks on a wooden platter, such as cream puffs with cool filling, handmade brownies, and Isigny butter cookies accompanied by a cup of freshly brewed coffee. Guests arriving at Coastline Azure B&B ought to slow down and savour the fine flavor of their vacation.

On the second floor, Coastline Azure B&B has two- and four-person rooms available. Each room derives its name from the movement of the sun and moon through the sky. In the rooms called “Moon Companion” and “Star Gazing”, the warm yellow glow of the moon and the resplendent stars illuminates the pitch-black night sky. You can greet the first rays of dawn as you sit enveloped by the boundless ocean vista in rooms with the names “Listen to the Ocean” and “Sunrise”. Shirley’s meticulous planning of the small two-person loft allows guests to soak in exclusive tranquility as they sit quietly near windows, overlooking the ocean. After a night in such a room, you’ll understand that the connection to the landscape is the best part about this place. Step out onto the spacious balcony where the rhythmic slap of the waves sounds nearby and revel in the exquisite company of the sun, moon, and stars.

Living by the boundless water

If you feel like an even farther view, then ascend to the rooftop patio and gaze into the distance. At a glance, take in the entire coastline from Jinzun in the North to Fugang in the South. Turn toward the west and behold the mighty and continuous ridge of the mountain range. Wrapped in the embrace of both mountains and sea, forget your worries and return to the purity of yourself.

With your spirit enriched and refreshed by nature, the exhaustion you brought with you has long since disappeared without a trace. At Coastline Azure B&B, put contentment back in your step as you walk abreast the mountains and the sea and embark on your next journey.
