Kenting's BEST Kept Secret: Time B&B Awaits!
Forget the Crowds, Find Your Time: A Raw & Real Review of Kenting's BEST Kept Secret - Time B&B Awaits! 🏖️
Alright, folks, let's be honest. Kenting. Beautiful, yes. But also… crowded. You're elbow-to-elbow, fighting for a beach towel spot, and the only "secret" left is how to escape the masses. Well, I found a secret. And, I’m spilling the beans: Time B&B Awaits! This ain't a polished travel brochure; it's the unfiltered truth, served with a side of sunshine and salty air.
First things first: Accessibility. (Because let's be inclusive!)
Okay, I don't have any mobility issues myself, so I can't do a full-blown deep dive on this. However, I did notice the elevator. Phew! An elevator in a smaller B&B? That's a definite win for accessibility. They also list "Facilities for disabled guests" which is a promising sign. I'd definitely suggest calling ahead to confirm all the specifics if you need wheel-chair accessibility – always the best approach.
Internet? Oh, Yeah… Wi-Fi in ALL Rooms!
Look, in this day and age, Wi-Fi is a necessity, not a luxury. Time B&B Awaits! understands this. Free Wi-Fi? Check. Wi-Fi in all rooms AND in public areas? Double Check! I mean, I am a digital nomad, always trying to find the best spot for uploading my stuff, so it must have been smooth, because I only recall using it, not actively checking the connection speeds! (That's a compliment!) In short: you’re covered, even when you crave that perfect insta post.
Things to Do, Ways to Relax (aka, My Paradise!)
Listen, I'm generally a "doer." Beach, hiking, exploring… But the real magic of Time B&B Awaits!? It's the vibe. I'm not a spa snob, but I did enjoy the foot bath at the end of my day. It's such a simple pleasure, but after a solid hike in the park it felt absolutely divine. Speaking of hikes, the hotel offers a taxi service, they can arrange Airport transfer for you, and Bike parking is complimentary!
I took advantage of the Pool with a view . I felt like I was perched on the edge of the world, and the sheer joy of being able to just float and forget the world was pure, unadulterated bliss. I’m also a big fan of the Sauna. There is a good chance you will see me in there from time to time.
My Own Personal Sanctuary
Cleanliness and Safety: Thank Goodness!
This is where Time B&B Awaits! truly shines. I'm still a bit freaked out about the whole pandemic thing, so knowing this place actually cares about cleanliness gave me major peace of mind. Stuff like:
- Anti-viral cleaning products? ✅
- Rooms sanitized between stays? ✅
- Daily disinfection in common areas? ✅
- Staff trained in safety protocol? ✅
- Hand sanitizer everywhere? ✅
I even saw them using professional-grade sanitizing services. It gave me the confidence to actually RELAX. They have individually-wrapped food options, safe dining setup and sanitized kitchen and tableware items. Honestly, I felt safer there than, well, pretty much everywhere.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Fueling Your Adventures!
Okay, let's talk food. Because, honestly, what's a vacation without good grub?
- Breakfast [buffet]: The Asian breakfast offerings were great.
- A la carte in restaurant: You'll find a restaurant and coffee shop, so you’re never far from a caffeine fix or a tasty meal.
- Bar: Perfect for sunsets and sneaky cocktails. The Poolside bar is an absolute must for happy hour; it is a must..
- Room service [24-hour]: Hello, midnight snacks!
I actually had an impromptu snack at the Snack bar. You have all of the things you want without having to run off.
Services and Conveniences: They Thought of Everything!
Honestly, this place gets it. They aren't just offering a bed; they're offering an experience.
- Concierge: Super helpful with recommendations, booking tours, and generally handling anything you need.
- Cash withdrawal? ✅
- Laundry service? ✅ (Praise be!)
- Daily housekeeping? ✅ My room was always sparkling.
- Luggage storage: I needed that! ✅

The Little Things That Matter
Honestly, it's the small touches. The kindness of the staff. The attention to detail in the rooms. The fact that you feel genuinely welcomed. Time B&B Awaits! gets these details RIGHT.
For the Kids (or the Kid in You!)
While I didn't travel with kids, they offer babysitting services, family-friendly facilities, and kid's meals.
Getting Around, the Perks of being near everything!
- Car park [free of charge]: HUGE win! Parking can be a nightmare in Kenting.
- Taxi service: Convenient for getting around.
Here's the Imperfect Truth…
- It's not a 5-star mega-resort. It's a B&B. So, expectations adjusted.
- The "happy hour" at the pool could have a better deal.
- I really wish I'd booked for longer!
Rambling Conclusions and a Recommendation
Look, if you're looking for a cookie-cutter hotel experience, this isn't it. If you want to feel like you've stumbled upon a hidden gem, away from the tourist chaos of Kenting, that’s exactly what it is.
- I give Time B&B Awaits! a solid 9/10.

Uijeongbu's Wildest Night: 갓길주차 Scandal Exposed!
Okay, buckle up buttercup, because this isn't your grandma's meticulously planned travel itinerary. This is the raw, unfiltered, probably-jet-lagged, definitely-coffee-fueled experience of Kenting, Taiwan, from the perspective of yours truly. Specifically, Time B&B. Let's be real, I'm not super organized. But hey, that's part of the adventure, right?
Kenting Chaos: A Messy Itinerary (with a healthy dose of self-doubt and snacks)
Day 1: Arrival and Coastal Capers (Plus, Did I Pack Enough Sunscreen?)
Morning (or, what passes for morning after a red-eye): Ugh. The flight. Let's just say I'm not built for cramped spaces. Landing in Kaohsiung was a welcome sight though, even if the air conditioning assault in the airport almost gave me hypothermia. The drive to Kenting? Gorgeous. Lush green mountains meeting the turquoise sea. I instantly forgot about the three hours of questionable airplane peanuts. My first thought on arrival was: "WHERE IS THE BEACH?"
Late Morning/Early Afternoon: Time B&B Check-In & Immediate Panic. Time B&B. Seriously cute. Think minimalist, clean lines, and a balcony that practically screams "Instagram me." The staff, bless their hearts, were super friendly and patient with my terrible Mandarin. After settling in, I nearly went into full-blown packing panic. Did I bring enough underwear? (Important question). Did I bring the RIGHT kind of sunscreen (critical question, especially for my pasty skin).
Afternoon: Beach Time & Coastal Stumbles. Nanwan Beach first, because duh. The sand was powdery white, the water, shockingly clear. Cue the mandatory awkward photo shoot with the camera. I attempted surfing. Attempted. More flailing than surfing. I swallowed a significant amount of seawater. It didn't taste as good as I'd hoped. Okay, the beach was fantastic, even if I wasn't. Then, I wandered along the coast road, getting distracted by every single vendor offering fruit smoothies (highly recommended, especially the mango). Stumbled upon a charming little seafood shack.
Evening: Food coma and the night market. A truly fantastic seafood dinner made it all worth it. My stomach is full and I am ready to see what this night market is all about. The smells are overwhelming and everything is delicious! I ate until I physically could not anymore. Fell immediately asleep and forgot everything for the day.
Day 2: Sun, Snorkels, and a Near-Death Experience (Okay, maybe not near-death…)
Morning: Sunrise Regret & Snorkeling Shenanigans. Woke up regretting the night market food coma (kidding, mostly). Decided to actually SEE the famous Kenting sunrise, which meant dragging myself out of bed before my body was truly ready. Not really sure why. Stunning. But I was grumpy until I had coffee. Snorkeling at Chuanfan Rock was the main event. The water was amazing, and the fish were, well, fish-shaped. I saw a sea turtle! (Which felt like winning the lottery). Okay, maybe not the lottery, but a small, exciting prize.
Afternoon: The "Climbing Up Rocks" Incident. This is where things got…interesting. I decided to channel my inner adventurous spirit and climb some rocks near the coastline. Turns out, I'm not as graceful as I thought. I slipped. I scraped my knee. I may have yelped. Okay, I definitely yelped. Thankfully, no major injuries, but my pride took a significant hit. Lesson learned: don't wear flip-flops when attempting to be a rock climber.
Evening: Sunset Seeking & Emotional Eating. Headed to Guan Shan for sunset. The views were… breathtaking. Truly. Makes you stop and think about life, the universe, and your questionable rock-climbing skills. Then, a relapse into the night market where I ate more than I should have. Again. I feel the emotional weight of the day in my stomach.
Day 3: Off-Roading, Water Battles, and a Moment of Quiet Reflection.
Morning: Off-Road Adventure (with a side of existential dread). Decided to try off-roading on a quad bike. Initially, I felt like a badass. Then, I almost drove into a small herd of goats. The views, again, were incredible, but I was too busy trying not to die to truly appreciate them. My arms ached. My butt hurt. But hey, I survived. (More or less).
Afternoon: Water Battles (and a potential sunburn). Water park here I come! After all that, decided I deserved a break and some fun. I got absolutely soaked and nearly lost my sunglasses in the water. Definitely got a little too much sun.
Evening: Dinner, Drinks, and a Moment of "Wow." Found a quiet little restaurant away from the crowds for a decent meal. After the day's ridiculousness, I really needed a bit of peace. Sitting at a table outside, by the sea… just the sound of the waves was the perfect way to unwind. It was beautiful. I almost cried for no good reason.
Day 4: Departure & The Post-Kenting Blues (and a list of what I'll do next time)
Morning: Last Breakfast & Souvenir Shopping. Sad breakfast at the B&B. It was really good. I'm going to actually miss it. Souvenir shopping for all the friends and family I'm obligated to get things for. Spent way too long haggling over a seashell wind chime. Is this what adulthood is?
Afternoon: Farewell Kenting. The drive back to the airport was bittersweet. I'm tired, sunburnt, slightly bruised, and emotionally exhausted. BUT I also had an incredible trip. And I'm already dreaming of coming back.
Evening: The Things I'll Remember (and What I'll Do Differently Next Time).
What I'll Remember:
- The turquoise water.
- The ridiculously delicious food (and the stomach aches that followed).
- The kindness of the people.
- The absolutely stupid things I did (and survived).
- The feeling of the salty breeze on my face.
- That freaking magical sunrise.
What I'll Do Differently Next Time:
- Pack WAY more sunscreen.
- Learn some basic phrases in Mandarin.
- Maybe skip the quad biking (or at least learn how to drive it).
- Bring insect repellent!
- Pace myself! (Yeah, right).
- Bring a friend to laugh at all my mishaps.
- And most importantly, I'll stay longer.
Final Thoughts:
Kenting? It's a beautiful mess. It's chaotic, it's exhausting, and it's completely worth it. It's the kind of place you go to lose yourself and maybe find a slightly stronger, slightly more sunburnt version of yourself in the process. Go. Just go. But maybe pack some extra Band-Aids. You'll thank me later.

So, what *IS* this whole FAQ thing about, anyway? Like, besides being… well, an annoying list?
Ugh, *I* understand the hesitation. Honestly, sometimes I feel like FAQs are just… the internet’s equivalent of those awkward “get to know you” games at a work retreat. But! Bear with me. This is supposed to be a space to address the burning questions, the niggling doubts, the "wait... *what*?" moments that might be swirling around in your head. I aim more for a conversation. Think of it as… well, a slightly one-sided therapy session where *you* set the agenda.
Okay, okay, I get it. But why now? Why *this* FAQ? Is this about *me*?
Look, it's not *just* about you, but also maybe a little bit because I'm procrastinating on something else. And also, because there are genuinely good questions that usually get glossed over in the polished, perfect world of marketing. Honestly, I'm feeling a bit… cynical? Yeah, cynical. This FAQ is my antidote to the relentless positivity.
Fair enough. Let's get down to brass tacks. What’s the *real* deal? What are we actually talking about here?
Right. The *real* deal. Well, to be honest, the details are… evolving (translation: I'm still figuring it out!). But the general idea? It's about… well, let's call it "the messy, beautiful, and sometimes utterly bonkers experience of [Subject - Let's pretend it's creating art, for example]". That's a starting point anyway. ...
Sounds vague. Can you be *slightly* more specific? About, you know, what makes *your* version special?
Okay, okay, you got me. It's not *just* about [subject]. It's about the *feeling* of creating it, the *struggles* with it, the times you want to throw it all out the window (and have, probably). I am all about honesty, even when it's embarrassing. So, if you're in the mindset that you can learn from my blunders, or laugh at my failures, you're in the right place.
Alright, alright, I’m intrigued. Let’s talk about… the actual *thing*. Tell me about the beginning. Like, how did you get *into* this mess?
Oh, the beginning. *Sigh*. It's like asking someone to describe their first love – messy, confusing, and probably involves a lot of impulsive decisions. For me, it all started with… [insert a genuinely quirky specific origin story here. E.g., "a particularly bad breakup and a box of watercolors," or "a late-night pizza craving and a YouTube tutorial."]. It was NOT love at first sight. It was pure, unadulterated *frustration*. I remember my first attempt at [subject]. I literally wanted to scream. I swear the light was mocking me! I wanted to be good, but I was just… not. There was this one time, I spent, like, *days* trying to get the shading right. It looked like I'd smeared a handful of… well, let's just say it wasn't pretty. But, there's something about that initial, raw, awful experience, an addicting feeling!
Okay, so, the struggles. What are the *biggest* challenges? What makes it so hard to [subject]?
Oh, the challenges. Don’t even get me started. It’s a *minefield* of self-doubt, technical hurdles, and the constant battle between "This is amazing!" and "What am I even doing?". For me, the biggest challenge? Perfecting the skill of [subject's core concepts]. I'd spend hours, days even, trying to [describe the actual struggle and what it feels like emotionally. E.g., "get the color blending right, but my brain would just short-circuit. It felt like trying to herd cats in a hurricane."]. And then there's the emotional baggage! The constant comparison. The fear of failure. The overwhelming sense that everyone else is just *naturally* better. Ugh. It's a lot.
Is it worth it? Seriously. Is the payoff worth all the… *stuff*?
That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? On the really *bad *days? No. Absolutely not. I've questioned my sanity. I've contemplated a career change. I've even looked longingly at a bag of chips, thinking that they'd provide more satisfaction than a project that's, lets say, *not working*. But... and this is a big but... On the *good* days? It's incredible. It's like… hitting the lottery of self-expression. That rush of pride when something comes together. That feeling of quiet satisfaction when you've finally overcome a hurdle. Yep, it's totally worth it. It also keeps me from… well, from being *bored*. Which is something.
So, how do you handle the inevitable self-doubt? Any tips for the rest of us poor mortals?
Self-doubt is the uninvited guest that *never* leaves. But I cope. First off, accept that it's normal. Like, seriously normal. Everyone wrestles with it. Even the "geniuses" you see out there. Next, try to break down the project into smaller, achievable goals. Celebrate the tiny victories! Did you finally get that one *thing* right? Congrats! Buy yourself a cookie. Then, and this is crucial, I tell you -- Find your support system! Talk to people, friends, collaborators. (I have one friend, bless their heart, that even when I'm at my worst, will listen).
Okay, let’s get practical. What gear/materials/tools do you *actually* recommend?
Ugh, gear. *Sigh*. The siren song of shiny new tools. Resist! It's easy to get caught up in the idea that you need the most expensive brushes/pencils/software to be "good." You don't. Start with the basics. Here’s what I actually useWander Stay Spot
