What is Gloria Manor, a Member of Design Hotels like?
Gloria Manor, a Member of Design Hotels, is on Gongyuan Road in Hengchun Township, Pingtung County, inside Kenting National Park. It was formerly the park's guesthouse and sits between the mountains and the beaches. The main building dates back to 1958, when it was a forestry bureau office; after renovation it became a white modernist building, and it is now a member of Marriott's Design Hotels.
There is the Mu Restaurant and the Mu Lounge: the restaurant looks out over the mountains and the lounge faces Dajianshan. There is also an outdoor pool, SPA BY VALMONT and a gym, plus gentle yoga classes. The hotel also works with local ecology studios and residents to arrange in-depth experiences outside the property.
The rhythm that suits this place: spend the day exploring the Hengchun Peninsula by private charter, then come back in the late afternoon to relax by the pool or in the Mu Lounge. Check-in is at 16:00, so you can use the first afternoon for sights along the way.

With a private charter
The hotel is about 108 km from Kaohsiung International Airport, and from HSR Zuoying Station it is also a long drive south, so a private charter is the easiest way to make this journey: the car picks you up right at the airport or HSR station, and you can stop for a meal or a break in Donggang, Fangliao or Checheng along the way. Guest parking is free; check with the hotel whether this also applies to charter vehicles, which normally just drop off and pick up at the hotel entrance. Around Kenting, Eluanbi, Longpan Grassland, Baisha Bay, Houbihu and Hengchun Old Town are spread out, so a charter can order them around sunset times. GO TAIWAN's 3-day Kaohsiung–Kenting trip (second night) and 4-day southern Taiwan family trip (third night) departing from Kaohsiung both include a night in Kenting, and you can choose this hotel. The hotel's airport transfer costs NT$4,500 one way; for larger groups, compare it with the cost of a private charter before deciding.
