Hotels in Caicun Scenic Spot, Dali City

Located in Caicun, the room offers stunning views directly facing Erhai Lake. The ecological corridor is just downstairs, making the location absolutely superb. The front desk lady was incredibly friendly and even helped us dry our clothes. The staff member was very dedicated; he even drove to pick us up after his working hours. Both of them were fantastic and very professional. The breakfast place they recommended nearby served the best rice noodles I've ever had in my life. Downsides: The room facilities were very basic. There were only disposable bath towels, and the projector quality was mediocre. The bathroom was just 'not particularly annoying,' nothing more. The biggest issue was that my room was incredibly small. The merchant's photos, taken with a wide-angle lens, made it look much larger, but in reality, it was just the bed plus a window sill (for the view). This was disappointing. The soundproofing was also very poor (though this is common for guesthouses in these villages, as they are converted from old buildings). If you're just looking for a place to sleep for one night, I'd say it's an option. But if you want a really nice environment, it's better to go to the Erhai side below Longkan Pier, where there are many places with excellent settings.

Staying in the Smart King Room at WeShe No.2 Courtyard was an absolutely amazing experience! All the smart devices in the room were easy to operate, and the room itself was clean and quiet, making for a very comfortable stay. You can also check out the cafe at Courtyard No.1. The atmospheric corners there are perfect for photos, with walls full of singer posters, cute dolls, and traveler messages – definitely Instagram-worthy! Plus, you can pet PiPi, a gentle and cuddly corgi. The fourth-floor terrace offers an incredible view; last night, I was lucky enough to catch a stunning pink-orange sunset with a complete rainbow. Erhai Lake and the rolling mountains were all visible, and the evening breeze was incredibly therapeutic. It's also just a short walk to the beach. The owner provided thoughtful and detailed service. You get to enjoy a smart room, a trendy cafe, a scenic terrace, a cute dog, and even the chance to witness a beautiful sunset – this is definitely my top choice for a long stay in Dali!

This guesthouse has its own parking, which is very convenient. The butler service was excellent, and the room was beautiful with a lovely, healing pastoral view. The small courtyard on the first floor is also very pretty. I highly recommend this guesthouse.

This is a great place to stay for those who can speak Chinese. It was great even if you can't. The tea brewed by the owner is amazing. It is black tea, but it is a high-quality Chinese-style black tea (gold tea) with a golden or deep crimson color and an incredible aroma. He brews his own tea for you. They sell it, and I regret not buying some. Minsu - Since it is a Korean-style guesthouse, a family lives there. In the morning, they wash the kids, send them to school, scold them, and yell at each other, haha. It wasn't like that the whole time, though. People are just the same everywhere. The bedding is incredibly clean. The electric blanket is good too. Be careful with the single rooms in the middle of summer, as there is no air conditioning!

Facilities: Very comprehensive! It's a shame I couldn't get a room with a bathtub, though. I really liked the marble design in the bathroom; it felt very luxurious. Hygiene: Very clean, and everything you could need was provided. They even had special detergent for washing underwear, which was a really thoughtful touch – I didn't even need to use the one I brought. Environment: Absolutely fantastic! We had a front-row ocean view, with an unobstructed view of the sunrise. There was a huge balcony, but we didn't really get to use it much as we were out exploring all the time. Next time, I'll definitely slow down and enjoy some coffee on the terrace. Service: The auntie and uncle were incredibly welcoming and enthusiastic. It was my first time in Dali, and I had no idea what to do. They gave us a detailed explanation, and the uncle was incredibly knowledgeable about the local culture and history, knowing which attractions had a long cultural background. If you're unsure how to explore or what kind of unique experiences you're looking for, they can clearly explain it and give great recommendations. Overall, it was superb! I plan to come back every year. If you walk north along the hotel, you'll find all the popular beachfront photo spots.

The B&B owner was incredibly thoughtful. Knowing we needed high-speed internet for a short period in the evening, even if it was less than an hour, they specially came to our room to replace the router with a gigabit one and debugged it on the spot. This level of dedication was truly touching. The location is absolutely superb. The entire property spans over an acre, and you can park conveniently in the backyard. Just outside, there's an ecological corridor, and you can overlook Erhai Lake right from your bed. At night, the environment is incredibly quiet, with only the sound of insects. It's a truly immersive experience of the tranquil time by Erhai Lake. The stay was fantastic.

I went on a self-driving trip with friends and booked this hotel online. I was originally going to stay for only one night, but after arriving I was moved by the hospitality of the owner and his wife, the beautiful environment, the clean and hygienic room, and it was very close to the Erhai Lake, just a few minutes walk to the beach, so I decided to stay for two more nights. We arrived in the afternoon. The boss had made a reservation in advance, met us personally, helped with our luggage, and served us refreshments. He never tires of answering my questions, which is really touching! Give a thumbs up to such a boss! When my friends come to Dali in the future, I will definitely introduce this restaurant to them! The first photo was taken when entering the gate, and the rest were taken in the evening. Aren’t they beautiful?

🌿The environment is absolutely fantastic; the quaint architecture instantly puts you in a comfortable mood upon entering.🏡 The owner is incredibly welcoming, proactively introducing nearby attractions and thoughtfully recommending local delicacies.🍜 The room is clean and tidy, and the bedding is soft and comfortable.🛏️ The overall experience exceeded my expectations.✨ I will definitely choose this place again next time. Highly recommended for travelers who appreciate a quiet and welcoming atmosphere!👍

We booked the duplex seaview room for 4 people. The room was clean and the sunrise view from the room is very beautiful. Just a 1 minute walk to the lake and 3 minutes walk to the nearest halal restaurant. The host is very nice, he helped us to book Didi to go to the railway station. Recommended.

Had a great stay at Xinjia Yaoshan Homestay. The owner was very friendly and hospitable. I felt warm and comfortable during my stay. The room is clean and has all the basic amenities needed. Location wise, it is near caicun wharf with good food nearby, and a small night market just 5 minutes walk away. Didi to Dali ancient city is about 12 yuan. When I had trouble arranging transport to my next destination (Shaxi), the owner also helped to arrange safe and reliable carpooling with a driver/company he has worked with for years. I didn’t have to worry about anything, which made my stay at Dali relaxing and stress-free. Recommended! 👍🏻
