Strikingly beautiful. Surrounded by lush, picture-perfect tropical gardens and set on the banks of Mingshi river, at the border of China and Vietnam, this boutique resort is defined by its modernist design, the unmistakable Karst rock formations, and the seductively slow pace of riverside living. This luxurious sanctuary is designed for astute travelers who crave meaningful connections and out-of-this-world experiences.
"Facilities: The hotel seems to have been built in 2020, so it's quite new. All facilities are smart, including a Bluetooth speaker, coffee machine, mini-bar, private hot spring bath, and smart toilet.
Hygiene: I found a 'letter from a gecko' in the room, and sure enough, I saw a gecko! Although it looks scary, it's afraid of humans, so just ignore it. The staff replenished the mini-bar and daily necessities every day, and the room was cleaned very well with turndown service.
Environment: The public areas are beautiful, nestled by mountains and water. You can enjoy the outdoor scenery right from your bed. Other public areas are also cozy and clean. The lobby is absolutely stunning, and they even offered three complimentary travel photoshoots.
Service: Staff members were friendly and greeted me everywhere I went; they're clearly well-trained. A day before arrival, a butler added me on WeChat to send hotel activities and arrange things. They delivered evening desserts daily, provided sunrise/sunset times and free activity schedules for the next day, and the shuttle bus notifications were always on time. They were responsive to all my questions and thoughtfully provided mosquito repellent – very good. My butler was named Jolly~"
