In Shuanglang, I finally stayed by the Erhai Lake, where the price is more touching than the lake itself. The most important thing to do by the Erhai Lake is to choose a few good homestays, to live by the lake, to watch the tides ebb and flow, and to see the clouds roll and unfold. Seaside accommodation must be in Shuanglang, because this is where the seaside homestay industry is most mature! Hotel: Baiju Art Seaview Hotel Location: Near Yujidao on Shuanglang Ancient Town Room: Yunqi (180-degree panoramic king room with Erhai Lake view) Hotel Highlights Huge public space, five floors of guest rooms, three floors of public areas (two floors below, one floor on the rooftop), great for taking photos (plus 5 complimentary photography travel shots) Great location, from the terrace you can see the opposite shore of Erhai Lake and the neighboring Yujidao, the scenery is varied, and you can daydream on the terrace for a long time Thoughtful layout, the guest rooms face Erhai Lake directly, when checking in, the sunlight just shines into the room, casting mottled light and shadows on the table and sofa, dreamlike Warm service, Shuanglang does not allow vehicles during the day, so once you park your car, someone will pick you up, and the luggage is also delivered to the room Tasteful amenities, the room's color scheme is cool, but the cotton and linen bedding makes it feel warm, the terrace lounge chairs are perfectly matched with Erhai Lake; the bathtub even comes with a three-piece volcanic stone set, very thoughtful Stay Recommendations Enjoy a private 180-degree panoramic view of Erhai Lake, great location and view, whether watching the sunset or daydreaming, it's a very comfortable choice Afternoon tea is exquisite, and there's an all-day tea and snack service on the first floor, the best part is the room is equipped with a coffee capsule machine and mini bar, four Nespresso capsules are a blessing for coffee lovers The outdoor space on the first floor of the hotel is very attractive, suitable for taking photos and also for sitting by the sea, it's what I imagine by the Erhai Lake The room's toiletries are small-sized from Pierre Cardin, you can take them with you if not finished, the shower gel and body lotion are very good, the bathtub also offers 'bath salt' and 'bath bomb', but I didn't experience it because I ate too much at night The hotel offers 5 complimentary travel photography shots for each room, book the time in advance and the photographer will contact you, some people get carried away taking photos for three or four rooms The hotel service is impeccable, afternoon tea and breakfast can be delivered to the room, they help light mosquito coils when turning down the bed at night, and before sleep, there's a goodnight dessert, steam eye mask... Warm Tips Since Erhai Lake is close to the water, be sure to close the doors and windows when going out The temperature difference between day and night in Yunnan is significant, be sure to keep warm, staying healthy is the most important when traveling The hotel front desk has various sun protection items, you can get them from the front desk if you forget to bring your own Travel photography needs to be booked with the front desk, if you arrive early, around 6 pm the light is best Dali is now busy all year round, I stayed during a weekday in March and it was fully booked, be sure to book your room in advance
