If you’re a family of four traveling from Taipei to Puli and Sun Moon Lake, driving is the most convenient option. For a 2-day, 1-night stay for four people, staying at homestays such as Crescent Villa or Shuiyue Mountain Villa in Puli starts at around NT$3,000 on weekdays. If you choose Qingjingze, a homestay located near Sun Moon Lake, the price is even better, starting at NT$2,880 — great value. Most homestays only include breakfast, with other meals and activities at your own expense. If you factor in food, accommodation, and DIY activities, the total is estimated to be around NT$7,000–8,000.
If you want a five-star experience, the newly opened Sun Moon Lake Hotel’s “4-Person Summer Package” is priced at NT$10,000 and includes meals, afternoon tea, dinner, and more — all fun and essentials are covered, making it a great choice as well.
