Would still be there for the night market and then could leave a little later the next day. Adds an additional hotel switch but might be worth it.
The night market in Kenting is passable - high repetition of stalls selling the same merchandise. I think they cater mainly for tourists because there is nothing much to do after sunset.

Kaohsiung and Tainan however, have excellent night markets frequented mainly by locals.
