Whispering gently by Erhai Lake, gazing serenely under Cangshan Mountain, there lies a waterside courtyard. Born by the lake, cradled by its waves, hidden within the landscape painting of mountains and waters — away from the noise, untouched by the world's troubles — waiting only for the wind to arrive, and for you.
This is a waterside sanctuary. Open the door, and you're greeted by the seamless blend of water and sky, the shimmering waves of Erhai within reach. The courtyard unfolds along the natural contour of the lake, gently embraced by the breath of the mountains and sea. The breeze brushes the water, carrying whispered waves and the freshness of grass and trees, softly murmuring in your ears. Every pause here is a serendipitous encounter with Dali's romance of wind, flower, snow, and moon.
Though nestled in tranquility, it is never far from the warmth of everyday life. Perfectly situated in the heart of Shuanglang, just a short walk to the pier, and adjacent to the 4A-level Nan Shao Style Island and Yang Liping's Sun Palace. Whether you seek sweeping views, leisurely strolls, photo-worthy moments, or spontaneous adventures — you can wander at ease or race toward beauty.
Inside, four thoughtfully designed room types await — queen rooms, twin rooms, sofa queen rooms, and family rooms. Whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or with the whole family, you'll find restful comfort here. Each room is airy and elegant, imbued with attentive warmth. From Xiao Du voice-controlled smart assistant, Gree central AC that keeps pace with the seasons, Jomoo smart bathroom fixtures, Laifen hairdryers, HD entertainment, mini fridges, to high-speed internet — everyday essentials are gently taken care of. Bedding is soft as a cloud, and toiletries, thoughtfully prepared.
You can sit quietly in the courtyard as flowers bloom and fall, or gaze out toward Erhai from the waterfront lounge area. In the lobby, shadows flicker by the fireplace. Mornings greet you with a complimentary breakfast and fresh fruit, while afternoons bring light snacks and tea. A self-service washer and dryer await on the rooftop, so you can travel carefree. Complimentary parking and shuttle service — every arrival and departure is tinged with warmth.
This is more than a place to stay in Dali — it's a sanctuary for letting go. No rush, no hurry. Here, you simply spend quiet time with mountains and waters, tenderly at ease with time itself.
"Traveling with kids, we stayed at a lovely guesthouse run by locals. It was very affordable and parking was super convenient. The g guesthouse's location was fantastic, right by Erhai Lake, near Nanzhao Style Island. It was about a five or six-minute walk to the lively Haijie (Sea Street) and also very close to Shuanglang Ancient Town's main street. There's a big terrace below the guesthouse's courtyard, and sitting there enjoying the sea breeze was incredibly relaxing, and it was perfect for photos too! We really wanted to stay another night, but our itinerary was a bit tight this trip. Hopefully, we can come back and stay longer on our next vacation!"
