From looking at the official website and the reviews here you would think this place was not good.
We stayed for 2 nights in November. We stayed in Pine Hall, the newer building in the resort.

The rooms were nice and spacious, had free wifi, toiletries, coffee and tea making facilities and an in room safe. There was also a laundromat in the basement with washers and dryers and soap powder dispensing machine. The facilities were modern, and the design was contemporary and elegant.

Service was excellent. They offered to take my grandmother around on a golf cart around the resort as it would not have been convenient for her to walk all about on her own. There is a shuttle bus from the old wing to the new wing.

About the resort. There is a resort section comprising mini fair rides, carousel, ferris wheel and a mini train. There was also an interesting insectarium with many types of butterflies and rhinoceros beetles. This is where you can DIY and paint your own wooden insect keepsake.

The resort is relatively large, with many areas for walking and taking in nature. It is rather hilly, so parents pushing strollers beware. Most areas are wheelchair accessible, but the hills make walking from one wing to the other daunting. There are performances, mini golf, trekking, rent a bike for travelling around the park or surrounding trails, Anderson's fairy tale world ( I did not go in, only saw some colourful statues), a few food outlets, but as this was winter and low season, it was not crowded at all. There was also a hot spring, but it was in the main building, so we did not go there. They provided us with breakfast vouchers, a park entry ticket and a hot springs entry ticket as part of our stay.

The resort environment was nice and a good place to get fresh air. It was also a good place to base yourself for sightseeing in the area.

Breakfast selection was fair, mainly taiwanese fare, porridge, toast and pastries, fruit and salad. Not too bad a selection.

If you want some other snacks, there is a food court and convenience store across the road from the resort. How convenient.

Excellent Rooms

A place where you can see very beautiful Tung Flower Blossom in the month of late April early May.  The hotel was huge and have different trails to allow you to have close encounter with the Tung Flower Blossom.  

There was also the one and only one Tung Flower Suite in Taiwan.  It was a little cabin in the wooden cabin area which was far away from the main building.  The suite itself was very nice in that the floor was a raised floor covered with glass and so you can see 20 thousands man made Tung Flower being scattered beneath the glass, with lighting well arranged making you to feel like in a farily land. 

As I said, the wooden cabin area was a separte area from the main building so everytime for check in and chcek out you have to ask the hotel to arange a van to take you from and to there, and you have to wait for sometime before the van came.   Breakfast and dinner again were on anohter separate building but that one you can walk there and took around 5 minutest. 

Food was not great, as most of them were Chinese vegetables, congess etc. 

They also have tour session at 7pm to go and see the fire flies during the month of late April early May.  We did see them but not too many. 

So it would be great to stay here during the month of April or May for the Tung Flower Blossom and the fire flies.

Nice for Tung Flower Blossom

We stayed at the newer hotel on the property and the room was clean and large, but I wouldn't call this place a resort. The lobby is tiny so there's a jam of people during checking in/out times. They only have 2 small elevators so there's a long line of people waiting to get to their rooms. So very inconvenient. The property is huge with lots of different accommodation options ranging from hotels to cabins. Everything seems kinda rundown and old. Examples: the mini golf course carpet was dirty and peeling, the dinosaurs were peeling, the little carnival rides creaked along. But the flower gardens were kept up nicely. There is a small lake on the property and you can take a paddle boat out on it, but the views around the lake isn't that great. It's a hodge podge of Italian statues and cartoon characters that makes no sense. But the breakfast buffet, which is typical Taiwanese congee, was pretty good.
