Andaz Xiamen marries tropical Nanyang nostalgia with contemporary flair. Designed by BLINK, the 291 rooms—including 20 suites with soaking tubs or study lounges—feature floor-to-ceiling glass, Dyson amenities and complimentary local snack minibars. A skylit courtyard of palms and fretwork screens echoes the city’s “Little Nanyang” merchant mansions, while balconies frame views toward Bailuzhou Park and the island skyline.
Leisure ascends via a year-round heated pool, 24-hour gym and spa with herbal steam. Andaz Tavern riffs on Minnan seafood with Southeast-Asian spices; No. 9 Canteen fires artisanal pizzas, and Alley Bar crafts sea-worm jelly–inspired cocktails. More than 1,600 sq m of daylight venues, zero-single-use plastics and curator-led Gulangyu heritage walks attract design-minded couples, creative executives and light-luxury nomads seeking a modern pause in Xiamen’s maritime rhythm.
