This stay is the best ever. Not only is the guesthouse clean and beautifully located right across from Erhai Lake. But what impressed me most was the hospitality and service—especially from Joy. From picking us up at the train station, to helping us arrange an EV bike rental (even though we eventually decided not to), to personally taking us to dinner and recommending dishes, trusting us with her dog Hamburg, and specially arranging for us to be dropped off at the station when we left even though she was busy with work. Joy made sure everything was well taken care of. She is a true asset to the guesthouse: friendly, sincere in her kind gestures without expecting anything in return, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. What we admire most is that Joy treats her dog as a family member. She is truly a person filled with loving kindness and will always be blessed for this.
The part we appreciated most was getting to spend quality time with her dog, Hamburg, who brought us so much happiness and filled our days with joy. Hamburg is a loving dog with a heart of gold. Anyone especially dog lovers would truly fall in love with him. Together, Joy and Hamburg make the best combination. They brought smiles and joy to us. They are the real assets of the place. We hope they will be greatly rewarded.
Thank you, Joy, for giving us the best souvenir in China—Hamburg's most loved toy. This is the best gift ever! And thank you for keeping in touch with us whenever you can, including sharing updates on Hamburg. It means a lot to us.😊
Great hospitality was also shown by others on the team. Miki served us breakfast every morning with a smile and was always at the reception keeping Hamburg company. She not only looks after him but also make sure he is in good hands, safe and happily running about. Miki carried Hamburg to bid us farewell. She also updated us on Hamburg's progress daily, which we greatly appreciated. knowing that he is happy made us happy.👍
Most importantly, the owner, Krystina, made us feel at home and welcomed. She has a warm personality, is friendly, and treats her staff like family. She is also in the midst of learning English for self-improvement. She has the willingness to learn and the kind of down-to-earth attitude that most hotel owners don't. We felt comfortable being with her, and she even hosted a farewell dinner for us. What we love most is that she is an animal lover and even included Hamburg in the dinner. She has a heart full of compassion. We had a great time together, and the night ended with smiles and laughter. We started as strangers but ended as friends.🙂
We were reluctant to leave after three nights, and if given the chance, we would love to extend our stay to a week in the future. This place is truly a gem, thanks to the wonderful management and the people behind it. We will surely recommend friends to your guesthouse—it is a gem hidden in Dali.
Thank you, Krystina, Joy, Miki, and Hamburg (the lovable dog), for a wonderful stay in Dali and for giving us sweet, memorable moments to cherish. We will be back! We miss you, Hamburg—lots. Thank you for bringing smiles and laughter to us. We pray for your happiness and may you be blessed with good health always! Hope to see you soon 🐶

Guest UserOur family of three has returned to Xi'an after our road trip to Yunnan, and the most memorable stay was undoubtedly this guesthouse in Dali. It offers exceptional value for money and is highly recommended!
The location is superb, just across the road from the ancient city. The environment is quiet and elegant, and parking is convenient. The cleanliness was impeccable. The suite we stayed in was wonderfully designed, with new and complete facilities. I particularly liked the brand of the bathroom fixtures and the mattress. The bedding and toiletries were also of high quality, making for a very comfortable stay.
The lavish buffet breakfast, exceeding a four-star standard, tasted fantastic – truly amazing! The service was top-notch; you could genuinely feel the guesthouse owner's dedication and passion for their business.
The greenery on the hotel's terrace was also meticulously cared for, absolutely beautiful! It's perfect for relaxing and taking various Instagram-worthy photos.
We will definitely choose this place again on our next visit to Dali.

I had an absolutely incredible stay here, it was easily the best hotel experience I've ever had. From the moment we arrived, we received such a warm and genuine welcome from the host and his family, making us feel right at home immediately. Our bedroom was impressively spacious and kept perfectly clean throughout our visit. The highlight, however, was the spectacular view; waking up to a panoramic vista of both the city and the lake was truly unforgettable. What really set this place apart was the exceptional hospitality. The host took care of us from the beginning until the very end of our stay, going above and beyond by even personally taking us to the bus stop when it was time to leave. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough! Thank you, Mr Ma, for your hospitality.

This absolutely deserves a full score for a sea-view guesthouse! The panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows offer a direct view of Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountain. You can watch the sunrise from your bed and see the sunset paint the lake. The 270-degree unobstructed view totally exceeded my expectations. The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was soft, and all the bathroom amenities were provided. Both the guesthouse's terrace and courtyard are perfect for photos, and it's just a few steps out to the Erhai Ecological Corridor, which is super convenient for walks or cycling. The owner was incredibly warm and thoughtful, taking care of pickup and breakfast with great attention to detail. This was the most satisfying stay I've had in Dali. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I visit Erhai Lake. Highly recommended!

Guest UserI found this hotel last minute in the evening. When I went in to ask about parking, a hotel staff member came out to help me find a spot and even assisted with my luggage. The room was clean, tidy, and comfortable. The service was exceptional; when I couldn't find the AC switch around 2 AM, I messaged them and received a prompt reply. When checking out, they even gave small gifts to my children. The service was incredibly thoughtful and comforting. I'll definitely be staying here again.

This is a truly unique place that feels like stepping into a serene tea house. The atmosphere is peaceful, with a beautiful garden that adds to the charm. The rooms are cozy and well-maintained, and the corridor is exquisitely decorated with small plants, wood, and rocks, creating a natural and calming vibe.
The property is situated among preserved buildings that share the same traditional architectural design, making you feel as though you’ve traveled back in time to the olden days. It’s a perfect blend of history and comfort.
Mr. Wang, the gentleman who manages the place, is incredibly friendly and helpful. He went out of his way to provide excellent advice on where to visit in Dali, which made my trip even more enjoyable.
Overall, this is a hidden gem that offers a unique experience, combining traditional aesthetics with warm hospitality. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable stay in Dali!

Guest UserThis hotel perfectly met our expectations! The courtyard is absolutely beautiful, and the surrounding area is lively with easy access to taxis and restaurants. It's also close to the pedestrian street, yet the hotel itself remains wonderfully quiet. The owner is incredibly friendly and easy to get along with. They have a washing machine but no dryer, so if you plan on doing laundry, I'd recommend bringing quick-drying clothes as they'll be dry overnight. It rained every day during our stay, and cotton items would probably take two days to dry. We stayed for five nights with our child, and our little one never got bored, often strolling in the courtyard or playing with the cats. We'll definitely stay here again on our next trip to Dali.

CY685We stayed in the underwater room, and the absolute highlight was lying in bed, facing a giant marine tank with 11,000 tons of water and over 20,000 marine creatures swimming right before our eyes. You don't even need to leave the room or buy aquarium tickets; you just open your eyes to sharks, sea turtles, and manta rays gracefully gliding by, and colorful tropical fish darting in schools. You can enjoy an immersive fish-watching experience 24 hours a day. During the day, sunlight shimmers through the water, and at night, blue lights illuminate the tank, creating an incredibly dreamy atmosphere.
The room itself was spacious and comfortable. Starting at 40 square meters, the layout was well-designed, featuring smart lighting and a fresh air system. The mini-bar drinks and snacks were complimentary, and they even thoughtfully provided children's slippers and small bathrobes, making it super convenient for families with kids.
And the service was absolutely impeccable. The front desk staff were warm and attentive, offering welcome fruits upon check-in. The hotel has direct access to the aquarium, just a short walk away, which made visiting the exhibits incredibly convenient – no need to rush at all.
Whether it's a romantic getaway or a family vacation, this place offers a truly unique experience with incredible value for money.

Guest UserDecided to come to Dali last minute. I was worried the hotel photos might be misleading, so I asked the butler to show me two rooms first. The B&B very thoughtfully upgraded our room. I have to commend the butlers for their excellent service; they were incredibly attentive and patient throughout our stay, not letting us carry a single piece of luggage. The B&B also offers a free professional photo service, and my mom had a blast taking pictures. If you're looking for great photos, this is the place to be! Watching the sunset while feeling the sea breeze is truly the best way to slowly, leisurely waste time.
