Dali BoMan Sea View Hotel (Erhai Park Branch)
Dali BoMan Sea View Hotel (Erhai Park Branch)Dali BoMan Sea View Hotel (Erhai Park Branch)
Hotel near Erhai Park,Dali 20.8% of visitors choose this area
It was a joy to wake up to the gorgeous view of ErHai offered by the bay window in our room, plus breakfast delivered to the door, each day. The room was clean, the hot water and water pressure were steady, and the bed was comfortable. Also really enjoyed using the tub by the window. Above all else, service was impeccable. The front desk was immensely helpful in providing advice for our plans on the day to day and very kindly helped to arrange for transport to our next stop at Lijiang. The only downsides are that it's a distance away from some of the popular tourist sites, but didi worked just fine for where we wanted to go. I believe the hotel will also help to book you a car if you need one. In all, my husband and I were really glad we chose to stay here and would be more than happy to return.

The B&B is in the ancient village of Nuodeng. Most of the houses here are built with rammed earth walls. They are very beautiful and special. We came during the National Day. Parking was difficult and we could only park far outside the village. Our luggage needed to be carried on mules, so we followed. I was panting heavily and sweating all over when I climbed to the B&B. The ancient villages are full of irregular stone steps. I can’t count how many steps I climbed. It was quite tiring. The environment of the B&B is good. You can see the scenery everywhere. You can stay on the terrace for a whole day and it’s not a waste of time. The room is not very clean, but it's okay under the general environment. However, the bathroom door is broken and does not close tightly. The bath water will spill out. The toilet is a bit wobbly. I hope it can be repaired if there is a chance. The food at the B&B was delicious, and the boss also gave us a taste of the home-brew wine, which was delicious. It's pet-friendly here. Several puppies came that day. The B&B has a kitten which is also very cute. There is a charging station not far outside the village, and there are service staff. There is no waiting for a table on holidays, which is great!

This hotel is a gem in Shaxi Town and should not be missed. We are happy to have had the opportunity to stay for 1 night, and only wished we had more days in Shaxi. The hotel is in a beautifully restored ancestral home, with rooms that are modern and beautifully appointed with a lot of thoughtful amenities provided. Breakfast and afternoon tea were delicious. The hotel staff from the ladies at the front desk to housekeeping were really friendly and helpful. They gave us recommendations on what to see and where to eat in Shaxi. We appreciated the extra touches such as having warm milk brought to our rooms as a nightcap. Special thanks to Yan Yan who took care of us on our last day and was also our teacher in the Jia Ma wood printing experience. We had a great time during the experience and left Shaxi with a special souvenir.

Yuntang is near Erhai gate of the Dali ancient city so it’s easy for drivers to drop off (but the ancient city roads are very narrow and can easily get stuck in a jam). The hotel location is good as it’s accessible to a lot of shops and it’s not a far walk into the alley. Thankfully there wasn’t much noise heard in the room even though the ancient city can be very happening and loud especially at some eateries and shops. We got a free upgrade to a bigger room which is very spacious and feels like a getaway villa resort. It’s clean and comfortable, with a cute tea drinking area which can double as a place to put our luggage. The breakfast provided is homely and comforting. We were allowed to leave our luggage after checking out and sit around the 1st floor area which has a few cozy sitting spots. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend!

This is a lovely little guesthouse well located between the old town centre and the river. The location is perfect for seeing the best of Shaxi and the guesthouse itself is spotlessly clean and well-renovated. The hosts went out of their way to help us out while we were there, arranging cars and transport and even shipping some clothes we left behind back to our house in Beijing. They had good recommendations and were generally welcoming and friendly. The room is spacious, clean and well-appointed. The lack of a door on the bathroom was a little odd but not a big problem. In general, a great place at which we would gladly stay again.

The accommodation is in a great location, just a 5-10 mins walk to the ancient town and bridge, and it’s accessible by car. Besides the great location, it has a fantastic countryside view - a view that one can stare at all day. The host is very welcoming and warm. They kindly heated the room before I arrived, and gave me warm water when they saw I was sniffing away due to the cold winds. Overall it was a pleasant stay. What would make it better is to provide a fluffy towel to use after showering, the current one is a bit thin.

The location is close to Dali Railway Station but quite far from Santorini Dali and Dali Ancient City. I rate the location as excellent because, realistically, you can’t have everything perfect, so we chose the one nearest to the railway station. Overall, everything was good, and the staff, or perhaps the owner, was attentive at first. However, on the day we were leaving, we were supposed to check out at 12 PM. I couldn’t reach the staff to store my luggage (I wasn’t sure where the storage was). So, we went about our day and headed to Longkan Wharf, returning at 12:04 PM. To my surprise, the lock had automatically changed right at 12 PM, which I wasn’t informed about, and our luggage was still inside the hotel. We had a train to catch at 12:56 PM. I tried contacting the hotel via WeChat, but no one responded. We asked the guard for help, but he couldn’t do much except try calling the owner, who didn’t answer. Finally, around 1 PM, the owner responded, saying his phone was broken. Unfortunately, we missed our train. I acknowledge it was my fault for not checking out exactly at 12 PM, but the lack of response from the owner left us without a place to store our luggage. Next time, it would be helpful if the hotel informed guests about the lock system and responded promptly to messages. That was our bad experience. If it hadn’t happened, I would have rated the stay a solid 5/5. But, things happen.

The location of the B&B is relatively convenient, there are parking spaces, and it is quite close to the core area of ​​the ancient town. As soon as we arrived, the staff warmly greeted us and helped us park and take our luggage. The afternoon tea and breakfast were exquisite and delicious.

From check-in to departure, the staffs at 三色云河 made our stay an absolute pleasure. Every team member we encountered was friendly, professional, and genuinely dedicated to creating a welcoming environment. In particular, can’t speak highly enough about the concierge member, 小徐,whom thrive to fulfilled our needs, went above and beyond to make sure we were taken cared in every detail. Our room was spotless and thoughtfully arranged, with the spectacular view of 洱海that can never be seen enough. Overall, from the attention to detail and personal touches made it feel like more than just a B&B — it felt like home. 三色云河,Highly recommended!

GGuest UserThe most fortunate thing about this trip to Dali was choosing Shuiyunge Seaview Resort. From the moment I stepped into this wonderful place, I was deeply attracted by everything here. Every detail exudes warmth and surprises. The resort enjoys a prime location with a breathtaking sea view. The rooms are exquisitely decorated and extremely comfortable. The large floor - to - ceiling windows offer an unobstructed view of the magnificent scenery of Erhai Lake. In the early morning, sunlight filters through the gaps in the curtains, gently waking me up. When I draw the curtains, the glistening Erhai Lake and the mist - enshrouded Cangshan Mountain in the distance unfold like a stunning landscape painting. In the evening, sitting on the rocking chair on the balcony, watching the sunset paint the sky and Erhai Lake in a gorgeous orange hue, with the gentle breeze caressing, it's an extremely cozy moment. Such a romantic scene makes me couldn't help but keep taking pictures. The in - room facilities are also complete and of high quality. The soft big bed, intelligent bathroom facilities, thoughtful night lights, as well as free high - quality tea and snacks all demonstrate the resort's attention to detail. The entire room is decorated in a style full of Dali's ethnic customs. The wooden furniture paired with exquisite embroidery decorations combines a quaint charm with modern comfort, making people feel like they're staying in a warm home. The service here is truly impeccable. From the warm reception at the front desk, the attentive check - in guidance from the staff, to the daily complimentary breakfast, every aspect makes people feel extremely warm. They not only patiently recommend nearby interesting scenic spots and delicious restaurants but also help me plan the best travel route. Once, I accidentally soiled my clothes, and the staff took it to be cleaned without hesitation and quickly returned it to my room. Such service is really considerate! The surrounding environment of the resort is also excellent. Many popular online - celebrity check - in spots are within walking distance, and the transportation is very convenient. When I come back at night, I can take a stroll in the resort's courtyard, listen to soothing music, chat with other guests, and experience the laid - back slow - life atmosphere of Dali. In conclusion, Shuiyunge Seaview Resort provided me with a perfect accommodation experience. It fulfilled all my fantasies about a Dali vacation! I highly recommend it to every friend coming to Dali. I believe you will fall in love with this place just like I did! When I come to Dali next time, I will definitely choose Shuiyunge again!

XXNYLMy friend and I enjoyed our stay in the 'Yunxi 270° Seaview Terrace Double Bed Room' at Dali.Muxi Inn (大理木兮·半山Villa海景民宿). We found this hotel via reviews on XiaoHongShu and the room looked exactly like the stock photos. The hotel and room were beautiful, the hotel staff were very helpful, and we would highly recommend this hotel if you are visiting Dali and are looking for a hotel with an amazing view of Dali Erhai lake. Number of nights of stay: 3 nights Hotel location: The hotel is situated in a quiet but brightly lit residential/hotel estate at the end of winding uphill road (around the Dreamland/Santorini 圣托里尼大理理想邦 area), and is located about 20 minutes away from Dali Railway Station. The vehicle drop-off point is directly outside the hotel. The restaurants around the hotel close at about 8.30pm-9pm Room: The 'Yunxi 270° Seaview Terrace Double Bed Room' is the only room located on the fifth floor. There is a lift in the hotel so it was convenient to transport our luggage. The room was perfect - it was really spacious, beautiful and clean. There was one king-sized bed, which was slightly too soft for my liking, but the pillows (one soft and one firmer memory foam pillow for each guest) were comfortable. There was a large living area with a sofa, three coffee tables and two additional chairs; balcony with two comfortable rocking chairs, a coffee table and a stunning view of the Erhai lake. The sky roof, when opened, was pretty in the daytime but it was difficult to see the stars at night due to the light pollution from the nearby buildings. The open concept wardrobe was large enough for us to hang our clothes Bathroom: Two sinks, separate shower and toilet area, one jacuzzi. Toiletries (e.g. shampoo, conditioner and body soap), disposable toothbrush/toothpaste, rubber bathroom slippers and disposable bedroom slippers were provided. The shower had both a handheld shower head and rain shower, with good water pressure and temperature Hotel amenities: Complimentary breakfast (from 8.30am-10.30am; delicious spread of noodles with soup, porridge, fried egg, bread and vegetable platter) and afternoon tea (Lotus Biscoff biscuits, yoghurt, fruits and plums); cafe at the reception area is opened during office hours and only sells beverages; beautiful reception area with a friendly and gentle 5-year-old house cat; communal washing machine (free of charge, inclusive of laundry detergent) Transfer: Free airport pick-up for this room type. No free pick-up from Dali railway station

GGuest UserThe B&B owner is super nice! We were upgraded to a bigger room because the room was not cleaned on the day we checked in. This B&B has no shortcomings in terms of geographical location, hygiene, facilities, etc. The proprietress will pick you up and drop you off at the ancient city and the farm. There was a particularly warm library, and we spent the entire afternoon there on our first day. The room is very large and has all the necessary facilities. The entire homestay is so beautiful that it looks great no matter how you take photos of it. There are some small animals on the farm on the mountain. The calves and lambs all look very healthy. The whole homestay gives people a very relaxing atmosphere. You can take pictures of the stars from the rooftop of the restaurant. There is a large field at the door, and the view is super good without any obstruction. Because they are the first one at the entrance of the village, other B&Bs probably don’t have such a good view. The breakfast provided by the B&B is super delicious, with fresh milk that was just squeezed that day and a variety of fresh vegetables. If you don't want to go out for lunch or dinner, the B&B can also provide it. The meals are all fresh, and the vegetables just picked from the field will be super delicious if you just stir-fry them. The staff are also very friendly. If I return to Shaxi Ancient Town for tourism, I will definitely stay at their place again.

GGRACEOur stay at Dali Xingmai Mountain and Sea View Homestay was pleasant overall and a good value for its price, especially if you're seeking a peaceful retreat in the quieter part of Dali. Traveling as a family, we were looking for a place that offered serene sea views, and this homestay mostly delivered on that. While there is some ongoing construction in front of the building that slightly affects the view, the surrounding scenery is still beautiful and calming. The cleanliness of the homestay was satisfactory, and it offers a good range of amenities. The kitchen, in particular, is well-equipped, making it a great option for families or groups of friends planning to cook and enjoy meals together. However, if you're simply traveling for leisure and don't plan to spend much time at the homestay, you may find the kitchen unnecessary. One thing to note is that there is no central air conditioning or heating system. The homestay provides a bed warmer (which works well) and a small air-conditioning unit in the living room, but the bedrooms can get quite chilly at night, especially during winter. It's something to consider if you're visiting during colder months. In terms of location, this homestay is ideal if you're looking to unwind in a quiet and restful environment. However, for those planning a busy schedule with visits to Dali's main attractions, the distance might be a drawback. The homestay is located in a residential area, and getting to most tourist spots can take 45-60 minutes by car, whether you're heading to the west or east side of Erhai Lake. There are also no nearby F&B stores except one small restaurant in the building next door so make sure you eat in the city areas before coming back to the inn. That said, if you're staying for a longer duration and prefer a relaxed, free-and-easy itinerary, this could be a suitable choice given its amenities like the kitchen and laundry facilities. It's also worth mentioning that this homestay feels more like an Airbnb than a traditional inn. It's situated in a residential building, with the entrance being a carpark and access through an elevator to a residential unit. There’s no lobby, service counter, or common areas. Instead, check-in and assistance are handled through WeChat. Despite some of the drawbacks, the service here truly stood out. The staff member assisting us was incredibly kind, prompt, and accommodating. Whenever we had questions or faced minor issues, she responded quickly and made every effort to resolve them, which helped make our trip smoother. Her attentiveness and helpfulness were a highlight of our stay and left a positive impression. While this homestay may not have been our favorite, the excellent service and peaceful setting make it a decent choice for travelers prioritizing quiet and self-sufficiency over convenience and luxury. 我们在大理落日山海海景民宿(洱海店)的整体入住体验还算愉快,性价比也不错,特别适合那些想在大理寻找一处安静避世之地的旅客。我们主要希望找到一个可以俯瞰大海、环境清幽的地方,这家民宿基本满足了我们的需求。虽然楼前有一些施工,稍微影响了景观,但周边的风景依然很美,很令人放松。 民宿的清洁度令人满意,且设施齐全。厨房尤其设备完善,非常适合家庭或朋友团队入住,大家可以一起烹饪和用餐。不过,如果您只是来大理休闲旅游而不会花太多时间待在民宿里,厨房的实用性可能就不大了。 需要注意的是,这家民宿没有中央空调或供暖系统。房间里提供了电热毯(效果不错)以及一个小型空调,但空调只在客厅使用,冬天的时候卧室会有些寒冷。如果您在寒冷季节入住,这一点需要特别留意。民宿位于一个住宅区,从这里到大理的大多数景点开车平均需要45到60分钟,无论是前往洱海西还是海东。此外,周边没有什么餐饮店,仅有隔壁楼内的一家小餐馆。所以建议您在回到民宿前先在市区用餐。不过,如果您计划长时间停留或想要悠闲地度过假期,这里的设施(如厨房和洗衣设备)会让您的入住更加舒适。 另外,这家民宿更像是Airbnb,而不是传统的旅馆。民宿位于一栋住宅楼中,入口是一处停车场,需要乘电梯到达房间所在的单元。这里没有前台、大堂或公共区域。所有的入住手续和服务都通过微信完成。尽管有一些不足之处,民宿的服务确实值得称赞。负责接待我们的工作人员非常友善、迅速且乐于助人。无论我们有什么问题或遇到什么小麻烦,她都及时回应并尽力帮我们解决,这让我们的旅程顺利了不少。她的细心和贴心服务是此次入住的一大亮点,也给我们留下了深刻的印象。虽然这家民宿不是我们的最爱,但出色的服务和安静的环境让它成为了一个还算不错的选择,适合那些更看重宁静和自给自足,而不是便利和豪华的旅客。

JJane.TI recently stayed at a hotel in Dali, Yunnan, and had an overall pleasant experience. The cleanliness of the room and common areas was impressive — everything was well-maintained and tidy, which made the stay comfortable and relaxing. The service stood out as one of the highlights. The staff were friendly, attentive, and always willing to help with directions or local recommendations. They made check-in and check-out smooth and stress-free. But would like to comment on the photoshooting service that this hotel provided, although they stated it’s free, but each room ONLY FREE 5 PIECES NON EDIT photos no matter how many days you stay. So please don’t ask for this service if you don’t want your pocket to have a hole 🤣, would recommend you to have the traditional costume shoot in Lijiang or Shangrila which will cost in cheaper price where they can provide costume rental and full make up. This hotel they charge a very high price for the photoshooting if you want to buy the photos from them. Overall, I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Lijiang, if they like photoshooting. Or else you can stay in other better choices hotels.

GGuest UserAfter a trip around Yunnan, I stayed here on the last day. It is very close to the high-speed rail station. There is a large garden outside during the day. It is full of hydrangeas. It is also very beautiful on rainy days. There is also a teahouse where you can drink tea.

KKhaioonThe hotel is at a quiet corner but within 10 minutes walking distance to the South Gate of the Old Town with plenty of eateries around. The rooms are clean and spacious, although not much of a view. The hospitality is exceptional. The warmth and the sincerity can be felt! They are very prompt in all my enquiries, and welcoming our arrival with all the necessary details. Highly recommended!

AAnonymous UserThis B&B appear on the outside to be new, (newly done or newly renovated) overall good but few tips to be improved : 1) for the room I stayed in to be added a standing light or additional ceiling lights as it's very dark. 2) the shower water doesn't seem to flow out and caused some mini flooding in the bathroom as water reached to the facial wash basin, nearing to the door. Suggest to add additional glass door to avoid such matter as I had to wash my hair in the sink to avoid flooding. 3) cleaning was superficially done but the tea cups were dusty, the hair in the bathroom were not removed 4) service were helpful but it still can be improved

GGuest UserThe best hotel experience of this trip is mainly due to the hotel's service. The butler, Liu, is very attentive and meticulous, which is the best service I've ever experienced. Super awesome!!! The hotel scenery is beautiful, located on the edge of Shuanglang Scenic Area, and every angle is very photogenic. The room facilities are complete and considerate, and there are very complete supplies for children, clean and tidy. There is a fruit plate when we arrive. In the evening, they also send good night milk, and the children really like the kittens in the shop. Butler Liu introduced the surrounding attractions, delicious food, and matters needing attention in detail, really considering for customers, and the experience is super good. Next time I come to Dali, I will stay here again👍

JJonathanHad a wonderful 3 nights here. The well-designed property offers a calm respite from the buzz of the streets outside. We had a room on the second level that let good sunlight in during the days, allowing us to sit by the huge window for tea. Though the toilet and shower was a little small, the stone bathtub was huge. Room was clean & had all basic amenities one would expect. We loved the Coco-mat pillows. The breakfast was a highlight every morning, offering varied & healthy options. Coffee was good too. They served complimentary night desserts/snacks. They didn’t have many staff but service was good and prompt, always ready to offer tips & advice whenever needed. This included texting them via WeChat anytime you needed something. When the caretaker lady found out that we were heading to the other JiXiaShan properties after Dali, she took the initiative to inform them about our pending arrival & asked that we be accorded good hospitality. She also helped to link up with the Dida driver when we needed to arrange the transport between cities. We didn’t miss Dali Ancient City that much, but we sure miss this wonderful property, and we won’t hesitate to stay here again if we were to pass by this way.
