Minimi Inn - SailRock Beach House

⸻ I had a wonderful stay at MINIMI in Kenting. This unique 民宿 has a beautiful and relaxing atmosphere that makes it stand out right away. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the overall environment felt cozy and thoughtfully designed. The location is also super convenient, making it easy to explore nearby spots. I really loved this place and would definitely stay here again!

Best stay in Taiwan

Definitely worth checking out this place just 5 mins south of main Kenting area. Super friendly staff, comfortable room with good Wi-Fi and shower

Amazing hotel and ambiance, amazing breakfast, and amazing view. Will definitely stay again. Generous room amenities, coin laundry on site, and directly across from a not-crowded beach. 7-11 is a block away, and the Kenting night market is a short drive down the road.

Wonderful places. Perfect service. Fantastic views.

We loved our stay here. The staff are more than helpful but also very kind in how they rreat customers. The breakfast was different every day and very tasty and not just typical Taiwanese style food. Peopke who complain it is just a sandwich make it sound like a cheap dull beakfast. Its much better than that. I recommend staying here but you need transport to get to the high street. We knew this before and had hired a scooter anyway. Tbh to get to good beaches from any hotel you probably need transport.

Spectacular view and beautiful beach right across the road! You can enjoy the sunset view in the room. The room itself was very well designed and cozy. The owner has definitely worked hard on designing the room and in decorating. Very clean and the staff are super friendly. The whole place is even better in person than in photos. I would say it's better than most 4-star hotels but you pay such a low price (visited in February, probably low season). Would definitely stay here again next time in Kenting!

The room and facilities was luxurious but filled with weird, small drawbacks. Pros: Good bed, very cool and effective automated blackout curtain setup, good water pressure and (after you wait a couple minutes) hot water temperature. Extremely friendly and helpful staff who helped me find a place to rent an electric scooter and discover some awesome local restaurants. Comfortable and clean bed and chairs. Plenty of electrical outlets and bathroom surface area. Beautiful ocean view facing directly into the sunset. Easy to use coin-operated washing machine, and a convenient rack on the veranda to hang-dry clothes. Cons: Probably the most glaring issue was that the room, while it does have a beach view, is directly over a busy and loud main road, so the noise is constant at all hours except late at night. Also, the room service inexplicably wouldn't leave me my towels, but replaced them every day even when I hadn't used them yet (they also took away the bar of handsoap I had only half used?). This included taking away that little rough towel you put on the floor next to the shower, which was only replaced about 50% of the time. Oh, and there were no hand towels or washcloths to speak of. Another problem I had was there were several sources of very high-pitched electronic buzzing near the TV, the source of which I could not pinpoint, and which persisted even when the keycard was removed from the slot that ostensibly turns all the room's electricity on or off. Many people will not notice this kind of thing but I am personally quite sensitive to that kind of noise and found it hard to sleep or just sit around the room quietly as a result. The provided breakfast was fine, if not really "breakfast"—usually it was a sandwich with a small salad and a fruit bowl and yogurt and some kind of dessert item. They only started serving at 9am so eventually I gave up and starting going to the nearby 7-11 for coffee when I woke up instead of waiting. Lastly, the location is... not great. You can't walk to anywhere from this hotel except Sail Rock beach and the nearby 7-11. If you stay here, a car or scooter to get around Kenting and beyond is mandatory. The buses are unreliable and infrequent. Overall, a pleasant and luxurious hotel that is probably overpriced for what you get but still a really nice way to get away from civilization if that's what you're into.

Amazing staff! Super friendly and helpful! Everything was extremely clean, convenient, and absolutely BEAUTIFUL. location was the best in Kenting and you can't beat the view from the room. I would come back everytime I visit Kenting.

Room with balcony and beautiful sea view. Clean and tidy. Very nice staff. Delicious breakfast. Highly recommended

Breakfast was spendid, everything about the room was great

Good breakfast, clean place.

Minimi is a pretty hotel with nice accents in the room, a perfect breakfast and friendly staff. Close to the pleasant night market in Kenting. Would go back!

I love love love this hotel! The fabulous decor, amazing service, and delicious breakfast are just a few reasons why this place is so charming. With the spacious rooms, great views, comfy beds, large bathrooms and extra attention to details, makes this one of my favorite hotels. Even though I love being on the beach, I'm just as happy heading back to this beautiful hotel.

This place made our trip! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and could also speak English, the location is fantastic, and the free breakfasts each morning were delicious. We would definitely stay again. You can tell they put a lot of love into decorating the hotel because there were so many little extras.

Host of the hotel was thoughtful. She provided a list of activities, shops and restaurants and bus schedules to help us travel around Kenting. Alot of effort was put into the western breakfast served every morning. It had a variety of vegetable and fruit salad and a main course together with the choice of your beverage. A very hearty meal served with the intention to feed the guests well! The room was clean and bright and had owner of the hotel had invested in a good Marshall speaker for guests to use.

Nice little clean place to stay and relax

We loved almost everything about our stay, with two exceptions. We loved the staff here. Allen and Carrie were both wonderful. The breakfast was always delicious and something we looked forward to. The beds were comfortable and the skylight in the shower (penthouse, ocean facing unit) was lovely. The two negatives: - the pool outside wasn't heated. We went in January so it was never used except maybe toe dipping because it was too cold. We wish it was heated. I know that would be useless in the summer/fall but we would have definitely been in that pool a lot if it were heated. - The insulation. You can hear everything outside your bedroom. They need to have weather stripping around the doors because the wind travels, plus the noise. We heard our neighbors have sex from about 9pm to 2am. Because it's not 24hrs service and the staff aren't there from 9pm until the next morning, there was no one to complain to. We couldn't sleep and it was irritating. No one wants to spend that much money on a penthouse ocean view unit and not get to really enjoy it because all you hear is what sounds like a porn movie is being made next door. So if you're noise sensitive, I don't recommend this place because you can hear everything including noise traveling from other floors. If I could redo this booking, I would not have gotten the same suite we booked because the pool wasn't utilized and our rude neighbors kept us up. I would have rather saved some money and stayed on a lower floor.

Whole concept is very creative and it is facing the sea. Will stay here again for the next visit.

Minimi Sailrock is really a gem of all the bnbs in Kenting. Located directly across the beach, you get to wake up every morning to stunning sea view (best to ask for type A rooms). The design of the inn and room was stylish yet comfortable and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided was very good and different every morning. Will definitely stay in Minimi again during our next trip to Kenting.
