Hidden Gem Homestay in Dali Shaxi Ancient Town – You Won't Want to Check Out Even After Three Days!

Stumbled upon this homestay in Dali's Shaxi Ancient Town, and it completely blew me away! Spent the whole afternoon zoning out in the scenic lounge—felt utterly healed! The floor-to-ceiling windows framed a view like an oil painting: blue skies pressing against emerald mountains, the Black River quietly encircling the ancient town, and farmhouses dotted harmoniously across the landscape. Even the breeze carried a serene energy~ Sipping coffee here, with sunlight filtering through the plum trees, all worries simply melted away in that moment. The design of this homestay is absolutely captivating! The yellow rammed-earth walls embody Bai ethnic charm, yet paired with modern sculptures, they strike a balance between edgy and tender under the sunlight. The wooden beams of the old structure meet French-style windows, blending nostalgia with elegance. Vintage furniture contrasts against white spaces—minimalist yet warm—elevating the artistic vibe to the max~ Every corner showcases contemporary art, making it feel like living in a gallery! Comfort? Exceptional~ Bedding and toiletries surpass five-star hotel standards! Breakfast and afternoon tea feature ultra-fresh ingredients, and the butler service is impeccable—offering not just transfers but also arranging experiences like mushroom foraging and tea tastings~ Staying here is tranquil and private, yet brimming with homely warmth. Only those who’ve experienced it understand: this isn’t just a homestay—it’s Shaxi’s greatest gift🎁 To sisters visiting Shaxi, trust me—head straight to "Powu Shi"! It’ll be the most stunning highlight of your trip~
