Come to Dali for a long stay! Ditch those cookie-cutter sea view rooms!

Hey guys! Before coming to Dali, I totally fell into some major traps💥! I thought booking any sea view room would give me Erhai Lake at my fingertips, but ended up with either outdated rooms resembling guesthouses or remote locations with terrible transportation... Until I discovered **Floral Hotel·Chopin Art Villa | Premium Long-stay · Sea View Art Vintage Mansion (Dali Erhai Airport Branch)**. I was instantly blown away by its killer combo of "vintage art × breathtaking sea views × unbeatable extended-stay deals"!! This is truly the ultimate destination for Dali vacations + long-term stays – come take notes👇 ❌ Common pitfalls of Dali sea view B&Bs – I’ve taken the hits for you! ❶ "Sea view" turns into "sea fog view" – windows so blurry you can’t see a thing, ruining the promised Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake vistas ❷ Dated, generic decor – photos rely entirely on filters, reality feels like a decade-old guesthouse ❸ Far from downtown – expensive meals and taxis eat up half your daily budget ❹ Want to stay long? Prices are absurdly high – a week’s stay costs half a month’s salary! ✅ Why am I obsessed with recommending this villa? 🌟 A walking art exhibition! Every corner is a visual feast Who says sea view B&Bs must stick to ins style? Here, they’ve brought a **piano-themed vintage art villa** right to Erhai Lake! Massive common areas feature a private piano🎹, Baroque-style furniture, and a French fireplace – every shot looks like a *VOGUE* spread! 🌟 Hardware that puts five-stars to shame! Floor-to-ceiling windows face Erhai Lake🌊, with electric curtains for sunrise/sunset mode at a click; Kohler fixtures, mini-bar drinks, imported bedding… even the toiletries are niche luxury brands! The manager said each room’s renovation cost over 200k – staying here teaches you what "money well spent" really means! 📍 Instagrammable spots at the villa **Chopin Piano Corner**: Gently touch the antique keys with Erhai’s shimmer behind you – vintage vibes maxed out **French Vintage Style**: Sip on the owner’s hand-brewed coffee in the retro dining room, snapping movie-poster-worthy shots **Oversized Sea View Terrace**: Sunset reflections on Erhai Lake are unreal – your social media likes will explode! 📍 Hidden Erhai experiences ✔ **Ecological Corridor Cycling**: Ride along Erhai Lake for effortlessly fresh, Japanese-style photos ✔ **Panxi S-Bend Strategy**: Arrive before 8 AM to avoid crowds and capture the stunning empty road ✔ **Wenbi Village Jacarandas**: Seasonal spring/summer blue flower sea + Erhai Lake = fairy-tale magic 🍜 **Locals’ guide: Dali food hits (no misses!)** 🔥 **Breakfast** *Zhoucheng Po Su Baba*: Crispy outside, soft inside – best fresh out of the oven *Xizhou Baba*: Sweet or savory, paired with fresh coffee for a perfect morning 🔥 **Lunch/Dinner** *Muxi Dali*: Cliffside restaurant with Erhai views – romantic Western dining at its finest *Fly to the Moon*: Retro-industrial spot – burgers + craft beer = photo heaven 🔥 **Afternoon Tea** *Fortune Ten Sea View Restaurant*: Moroccan-style tea with 270° Erhai views – 100% photogenic 🌟 **Pro tip: Extended-stay lovers rejoice! Presale deals are insane** Planning a long Dali stay? Their extended-stay discounts are unbeatable – book presale vouchers now for bigger savings the longer you stay! Extra cash means more food and sights – total win!
