About
That proximity is not incidental: it is the governing logic of what the property offers. The Thermal Valley, a vivid, steaming pool of sodium bicarbonate-rich water, feeds a small number of properties in the area with green-sulphur water at temperatures that require dilution before therapeutic use. Villa 32 draws on this supply for its private thermal pool facilities, which form the experiential centre of the property. For context on the broader geography of thermal wellness in the region, JL Studio in Taichung, GEN in Kaohsiung, Akame in Wutai Township, and Le Bernardin in New York City, Atomix in New York City, and Emeril's in New Orleans represent the range of hospitality credentials against which EP Club situates its global coverage.

Frequently asked questions

What should I order at Villa 32?

Villa 32's core offering is access to its private thermal pools fed by the Beitou Thermal Valley, not a conventional dining menu. The property operates under a Taiwanese hot spring format, with the pools as the primary draw. For dining, the on-site restaurant operates under Relais & Châteaux standards; the wine program has received Star Wine List recognition across three consecutive tiers in 2023, making it a serious consideration alongside the thermal experience.

What's the address for Villa 32?

Villa 32 is located at No. 32號, Zhongshan Rd, Beitou District, Taipei City, Taiwan 112, Taipei.

Who runs the kitchen at Villa 32?

The chef associated with Villa 32 is Chen Wei-Hsun.

Should I book Villa 32 in advance?

Yes. Villa 32 is adults-only and uses private thermal pools rather than shared bathing facilities, which structurally limits capacity. Relais & Châteaux properties at this positioning typically run close to full occupancy on weekends and public holidays. Booking ahead is the practical approach, particularly if you are targeting a specific pool time or pairing the visit with Beitou's Spring Museum or Thermal Valley.

What do critics highlight about Villa 32?

The most documented recognition is from Star Wine List, which placed Villa 32 at rankings #1, #2, and #3 in 2023, an unusual spread suggesting the program was assessed across multiple categories in the same cycle. Beyond the wine program, the property's affiliation with Relais & Châteaux and its adults-only private pool format position it at the quieter, more considered end of Beitou's accommodation and wellness options.
