This guesthouse is a wonderful private home, run by the fantastic Jamie. Everything here is so well-kept, refined, well-thought-out, comfortable, clean, interesting, spacious and quiet. The atmosphere of this place is extraordinary and soothing. I travel a lot around the world and I definitely give the maximum 10 points. I came here on foot and had a leg injury. I had to stay longer. I stayed for 2 weeks and it was hard to say goodbye. I know I will come back here as if it were a friend's house. The bedrooms are large, the beds are comfortable, everything is very clean. There are several spaces for relaxing together - a living room, a dining room in the large kitchen, and an outdoor terrace. In the living room you can watch movies and the Internet on a large screen. The area is good for walking, great views of rice fields and mountains, and trains passing over the bridge. The train station, a 7-eleven store, a small supermarket and several restaurants are 2 km away. There is a cat in the house that is nice and funny. Everything here is well thought out and organized. I recommend the breakfasts, which are a work of art! Great, large selection of bread (Jamie bakes herself on site), eggs and organic vegetables, fruit. There is a place to park your car, motorbike and bicycle. There are many interesting books. There are local cafes on the nearby plateau, I especially recommend a cafe in an old Japanese house, with a small museum. This place is worth visiting, even if you weren't planning on staying in this area!

I love love loved this accomodation! The interior style is so minimalistic and gorgeous and everything is super clean. The cafe has amazing coffee and tea and it’s great that you get the money vouchers for breakfast. Also the kitchen is decked out with like four ovens and is super clean as well. Wished I could have stayed a bit longer and would most definitely recommend this place! Super comfy bed as well :)

The hostel is simple, clean and friendly. The host (Shaun) was so nice. I immediately felt welcome and was introduced to some of the other guests, who I ended up getting dinner with. Any hostel can give you a bed, this one gave me a fantastic experience and some lovely friends. thank you Shaun.

This was a fantastic stay. Silent bedrooms, above average mattresses, spacious bathroom with good showers and a host that really helped me out with some storage and arranging a taxi. PS. The hostel is straight next to a walkway that used to be an old train track. It is a direct, calm route to the heart of the city. Because of that it's actually a great location. My favourite stay so far.

Amazing hostel. I wanted to stay 4 days but extended to 6, because I felt so comfortable there. Staying in the balcony room (6 bed dorm) is highly recommend because of the amazing views. Compared to other hostels in Dulan, the Tranquilo hostel attracts more locals and digital nomads and seems a bit more quiet. I met really interesting people there and would totally stay again! I loved the combination of being close to shops and restaurants, and having my personal space, too. The manager Austin and the staff members are always so polite and kind. Austin’s coffee is great, too. Sometimes there is a sweet lady selling cookies and cakes (highly recommended)! They taught me so much about Dulan and Taiwanese culture and made my stay memorable. If you want to go surfing, you can easily rent surf boards at a nearby shop, which is also great for socializing if you want to grab drinks and meet international travelers. Overall, great stay in Dulan and especially the Tranquilo hostel.

All hostels in Donghe

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel is very nicely decorated and very well situated: 7/11 right accross the street and beach 15-minute walk away. The tranquilo staff was welcoming, helping, and very friendly, so you easily feel at home. Thank you Roi for your advices on food to eat, places to go to and things to do! I hope to come back soon

    Gotta be the best hostel in Taiwan. Nick is the heart and soul of this place, and you can feel this spark in all the guests who are staying here. He also took us all for a canyoning trip. I extended for 5 nights total and would have loved to stay more. Awesome music all day long, free breakfast, three cute kitties...

    The atmosphere was great. The hostel was very clean. The manager helps you with everything you need. The breakfast was nice with some bread and fruits and great chocolade paste. Just 15 minute walk from the sea.

    Relaxed and easy-going place to stay at the main road in Dulan. The hostel and the village as well really has a backpacker vibe and in the end I extended my stay to relax a bit more. The upper floor terrace is a treasure with sea-view.

    The hostel was very clean, the beds were comfy with power outlets and the light nearby. Also - we enjoyed having a window in the dormitory, the room felt fresh when entering. The rooftop terrace was great!

    Great backpacker hostel in the small coastal town of Dulan! After many days of more typical Asian hostels (clean, comfy, hotel-style, minimal vibe) this was a perfect backpacker's getaway! It's very much no-frills, but the beds are comfy, the people are friendly, and there is a free breakfast! Highly recommend - just bring some earplugs for road noise!
