Dali Shuanglang Fengshen Homestay! Stay in Monet’s Erhai Garden

Who understands, family! Found a treasure in Dali! This cliffside sea view homestay in Shuanglang is stunningly beautiful✨ As soon as you enter, you’re amazed! Walls covered with climbing flowers + a huge seaside lawn🌿 Daisies and lavender bloom vibrantly, facing Erhai Lake with Cangshan Mountain at the back, sunlight sparkling on the water like stepping into a European manor movie! Be sure to book a sea view room! The floor-to-ceiling window view is incredible👀 Wake up in the morning without getting out of bed, and if you’re lucky, catch the golden sunlight on the mountain🌄 Outside the window is the deep blue Erhai Lake, you can almost touch the water with your hand~ The big bathtub in the room🛁 Soak in the bath at night while stargazing, the vintage British-style decor is super classy, definitely not a cheap internet celebrity style! 📸 Perfect photo spots to copy 1. Garden archway: Stand under the arch with Erhai Lake as the background, instantly become a runaway princess 2. Seaside lawn: Wear a light-colored dress👗 Run or daydream, the atmosphere is perfect 3. Room floor-to-ceiling window: Shoot silhouettes against the light, the “picture frame” perspective is ultra sophisticated 4. Afternoon tea time: French pastries by the sea, every shot is gentle and warm ☀️ Best shooting times 8:00-10:00 AM: Soft light and fewer people, enjoy the whole garden alone 5:30-7:00 PM: Sunset golden light fills the sea, perfect for gentle portraits 💁‍♀️ The service is really thoughtful! The housekeeper contacts you in advance to help with luggage, dragging suitcases on Shuanglang’s stone roads is tough, this is a big plus! Breakfast includes rice noodles + Western dishes, hearty and delicious🍜 At night there’s also a goodnight sweet soup, warming to the heart~ 🚶‍♀️ Super convenient surroundings Just steps out the door to Erhai Lake, very close to Shuanglang Ancient Town and Sea Street! Many restaurants nearby, choose from wild mushroom hotpot or Bai ethnic cuisine🍄 If you don’t want to move, lying in the garden all day watching the sea is super healing~ 💡 Thoughtful tips 1. Sunscreen! Dali’s UV rays are strong, bring sunglasses, hats, and sunscreen🧢 2. Wear light-colored clothes for the best photos, you can also rent ethnic costumes in the ancient town 3. Book early during peak season! This place is really popular🔥 4. Big temperature difference between morning and night, bring a light jacket for sure🧥 If you want a place in Dali to see the sea, take photos, and relax, Lake Mountain Cloud Hideaway is the one to go for! Wasting time here is the right way to enjoy Dali💕
