AAnonymous UserLocation: The B&B is right across from Erhai Lake and Xiahewan Wetland, with restaurants nearby.
Service: The service is thoughtful and meticulous. They even wait until guests wake up before serving breakfast. Breakfast includes rice noodles, sweet potatoes, corn, milk, and eggs. There's also an adorable dog!
Cleanliness: The room decor is simple yet elegant, and the hygiene is clean and tidy.

GGuest UserThe environment of the yard room is very comfortable. It is so comfortable to sit under the camping umbrella, bask in the sun, blow the wind, drink milk tea and watch TV series [wow]. I don’t want to leave after staying here for a few days. It is the king of cost-effectiveness among the hotels I have stayed in. I came here mainly for Erhai Lake. It happens to be by the sea. I am super satisfied with my first visit. It is fun and I love to play. I will come again next time!

EEDWARD LIM L HQianyu Seaview Resort is located on the 19th floor of Building B of Erhai Tianyu International Apartment, featuring six rooms named after natural elements: 'Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon, Cloud, and Dew'.
I stayed in the 'Cloud' room, which offered a 180-degree view of Erhai Lake from its balcony. Only the 'Flower' and 'Moon' rooms boast a 270-degree panoramic view, as one side of their balconies is unobstructed by walls. For instance, the 'Moon' room, as shown in the picture, also provides a glimpse of the Xingsheng Bridge to the left.
Qianyu provides complimentary fruits and beverages, and the breakfast spread is generous. There are also many restaurants nearby.
The resort is close to Erhai Park, making it convenient for a morning stroll to Ernan for photos. Since it doesn't face Erdong, you can only capture a corner of the morning glow and the glistening lake.

WWudiniangaozaiThis guesthouse was one of the accommodations I was most looking forward to during my trip to Dali, and I'm so glad it met my expectations! I didn't do much research before booking; I just stumbled upon a recommendation on a social media platform, and the view looked so amazing that I booked it right away. First, let's talk about the location. Since I didn't read up much beforehand, I only realized upon arrival that there are very few dining options nearby – almost no restaurants at all. Luckily, we had rented a car, which made things a bit easier. The owner is incredibly thoughtful and provides excellent service, helping with luggage and giving great recommendations. The resident cat, Saipan, is a bit aloof but very good-tempered; you can pet him all you want. It's a shame I only stayed for a short time. The view from this room type is fantastic, and in the evening, with the lights on, it feels so warm and cozy. I hope to come back and stay for a few days next time when I'm not in a hurry. Oh, and the room is also super photogenic!

GGuest UserThe environment is very clean, and the decor is simple and comfortable. The room directly faces Erhai Lake, offering expansive views. It's also only a few kilometers from the airport, which is super convenient. Couples will find it very relaxing here, as all rooms have king-size beds. The guesthouse host was lovely and enthusiastic, recommending off-the-beaten-path routes and nearby eateries. Overall, it was a great experience!

GGuest UserA 10 star experience
From the moment I arrived, I was warmly greeted by the two Mo sisters and their adorable feline companions, Pirate (the black cat) and Sweet Tooth (the brown one).
Everything about this stay—from the location and decor to the impeccable cleanliness and service—deserves 10 stars. The Mo sisters are incredibly friendly, chatty, and helpful, making the entire place feel like a beautifully maintained, quaint home.
A few highlights:
Thoughtful Details: The beds come equipped with heating pads for colder nights, which was such a nice touch.
Amenities: I absolutely loved the peaceful courtyard and the rooftop area.
Service: They are very attentive; for instance, if you need brighter reading lights, you just have to ask.
The Atmosphere: The garden is lovingly cared for and adds so much to the vibe.
Even as a dedicated dog lover, I have to admit that Pirate and Sweet Tooth completely won me over. If you are looking for a stay with character and heart, this is it!

GGuest UserThis place truly made me feel at home. I arrived at the hotel starving after my business trip, heading straight into a solo vacation. The owner's father personally picked me up from the airport and even made me a warm bowl of noodles. The rest of my stay was wonderful. The room had an unbeatable location; I could see Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountain the moment I woke up, and enjoyed both sunrise and sunset, plus the evening 'fish lanterns'. Reading, sunbathing, and feeling the breeze from Erhai Lake on the balcony – it was incredibly relaxing. The only downside was that the room was so comfortable, I barely wanted to leave to explore! The owner, knowing I was tired, even brought my takeout right to my room. I wish all hard-working people like them continued success!

JJate SopitpongstornThis 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!

GGuest UserThere’s something special about this place—I felt it the moment I walked in. The staff didn't just greet us; they welcomed us like family. Every smile, every small gesture felt genuine, as if they truly cared about our stay.
The interior took my breath away, rich with classic Chinese elegance, yet warm and inviting. You can feel the thought and care in every corner. And then, the view. I found myself just sitting in silence, taking it in, feeling completely at peace.
This hotel isn't just beautiful, it's unforgettable. It’s one of a kind, and it touched my heart in a way I didn’t expect. I’m already looking forward to the day I can return.

GGuest UserDali Majiuyi Zaigu Seaview Courtyard Guesthouse is absolutely stunning! The facilities are high-end, and the rooms are exceptionally well-equipped. The large floor-to-ceiling windows offer expansive views, and enjoying a bath in the tub while watching the sunset is pure bliss. The setting is breathtaking, with a beautifully landscaped courtyard. The sea-view terrace is so picturesque, every casual shot looks like a professional photograph. The service is incredibly thoughtful. Our butler was warm and attentive, providing complimentary luggage transfer and even welcome fruit upon check-in. The cleanliness is impeccable. The bedding is fresh and soft, daily deep cleaning is performed, and even the hidden corners are spotless. It's undoubtedly the top choice for a holiday by Erhai Lake!
