Hyatt Centric Ocean Front Xiamen Opens in China
Hyatt Hotels Corporation announced the opening of Hyatt Centric Ocean Front Xiamen, a vibrant hotel located in China's charming port city of Xiamen, renowned for its scenic landscapes and lively cultural scene. Nestled amidst an attractive seascape along the southeast coastline of Xiamen Island, the hotel is in a prime spot that connects guests to both the city's vibrant urban energy and laid-back coastal vibes.
An ideal home base for immersive journeys of discovery, Hyatt Centric Ocean Front Xiamen is a short walk from a beautiful stretch of beach as well as Zeng Cuo An Food Street, a popular destination for enjoying a rich variety of local delicacies. Guests only need to venture a little further to explore ancient temples, discover former fishing villages transformed into creative districts, or shop along the bustling Zhongshan Commercial Pedestrian Street in the historic downtown area. Nature lovers can embark on inspiring walking trails that descend from lush mountains to the sea or tour the island by bicycle along a scenic coastal road.
Capturing the spirit of Xiamen and embracing the magnificent ocean front lifestyle, the hotel's intimate spaces create a light and airy ambience for relaxing and socializing.
