The location is perfect , next to the main road and all the food places. They provides a shuttle from and to the pier - which i didnt know but noticed this in the previous comments. The driver was there - just he had the board with chinese letters so struggled to see that obviously :) And there was a ton of people so my recommendation is to put english name of the hotel on the board , cause its a waste of the time for us and the driver. The staff is nice and helpful but does not speak any English, so prepare the google translate. They can also take you straight to bike rental which a must on the island.
Boasting quiet street views, Here It's Home features accommodation with balcony, around less than 1 km from Zhongliao Beach. It is set 1.9 km from Chaikou Beach and provides free shuttle service.

First and foremost, the staff! They were very accommodating, letting us check in much earlier than the time stated in the relevant info (they even let us check out later than it's mentioned there). Plus, they helped us with the luggage, taking it to the ferry pier for us. Last but not least, the staff proved very responsive and proactive when we had an issue with wifi, fixing it right off.
Another thing is the place's strategic location - it's between the ferry pier and the eateries cluster. Plus it's actually on the island's thoroughfare.

The two of us couldn't ride a motorcycle so we had to rent a driver, which was expensive (4500 twd for 1 day) but it saves you from riding near the cliffs/ in the dark at night. We went during the low season and the bus seemed unavailable (and we haven't seen one anywhere during our two-day stay). Would recommend visiting during summer (before October) to avoid the monsoon. Overall it s beautiful albeit somewhat touristy

like the Island so much, there are so many beautiful place on the Island and also the sea , I like to go there to dive again
but suggest to change or turn off some bright street light on Ziping and Da Bai Sha, as there are affecting the darkness sky view for the stars
And I also recommend the guides of night tours do not use strong lazer bin to show people the star at the skies near little great wall area or everywhere

Taiwan has a lot of island getaway you can choose from and Green Island is one of the top choice you can make. It takes a little less than an hour to travel from the Taitung port. Lots of activities you can choose from snorkelling, scuba diving, trekking, hot springs, or just frolicking in the beach, there is always something to do here. Renting a scooter is a must. Lots of bars and restaurants that can cater to young and young ones in heart. My kids really enjoyed snorkelling a lot. You don't need to go the middle of the sea, the tour can just take you to the beach and instantly enjoy snorkel.

This tiny little island will never disappoint you!
This tiny little island will never disappoint you! Definitely worth your time and money! We were there for 3days and 2 nights but it could be easily done in 2 days 1 night if you are running short of time. Do rent a bike and surely take a sea activity of your choice.

Green island was beautiful!
Green island was beautiful! We took a ferry over, I would highly recommend taking some medicine to help with seasickness before you go, several people were sick on our ferry on the way over. First of all, I want to clarify this is not an island with sandy beaches to swim at and read a book on a beach chair, if you are looking for that kind of spot check out Kenting, Yilan or Hualien. Green Island is a treasure of its own, with all the coral reefs, tidepools, mountainous and beach views, and close-knit community. We explored the tidepools on different beaches around the island, a cave near Sleeping Beauty Rock, and hiked a few shorter paths. We also enjoyed Zhaori hot spring which had a fantastic view, and a great selection of springs (including two natural springs closer to the beach). The Little Great Wall was also a delightful stop, for its architecture and the views. We enjoyed the abundance of fresh seafood and mango shaved ice (always crowd pleasers.) The Island also offers snorkeling, which we did not participate in this time because of the age of our small children, but we hope to return when they are older and partake in that experience as well. Overall, the air was fresh, the scenery was beautiful and the whole island had a laid-back feel. I would recommend having a few full days to thoroughly explore all the spots and get some snorkeling in if you are able.
