If not in Europe, then please stay at the Princess Fuxian Lake in Yuxi
At the edge of Fuxian Lake in Yuxi, Yunnan, known as the 'Sapphire' of the national-level water source protection area, I was fortunate to encounter one of the few homestays in China that focus on aromatherapy as their theme, the Ander Holiday Homestay.
In the characteristic homestay village of Xiaowan Village, Ander Holiday Homestay does not occupy an invincible lake view natural geographical location, nor does it have the selling point of a popular oversized room type. It is just in a quiet corner, with a courtyard that allows both body and soul to relax.
The main feature of this homestay is aromatherapy—Aromatherapy, allowing travelers who are tired from the journey to get the best relaxation and healing in the fragrance of pure natural plant essential oils. Each room is named after an essential oil, and this time we stayed in the Lemon Lake View Twin Room. After checking in, the housekeeper started the lemon essential oil diffuser humidifier for us, and the whole room was instantly filled with the fresh sweetness and fragrance of lemon.
In each room, there is also a head massage wooden comb and essential oils. Before going to bed, use the comb and essential oils to massage the head, dispelling all the fatigue and worries accumulated throughout the day along the meridians, and then have a good night's sleep. The toiletries in the room are a set of Miller Harris Seeker series valued at 180 yuan, making the bath also something to look forward to!
After dinner, we happened to meet the owner in the store, so we started chatting in the tea room. The essential oils used in the store are all produced by their own agency's fragrant plant garden and essential oil factory in Songming, Yunnan, with guaranteed quality. Unlike well-known brands of essential oils, their essential oils focus on quality and cost-effectiveness!
At the same time, we talked about the hygiene issue of the homestay. The owner said that this is the most important and most concerned point for him, so all the linens here are sent to the professional linen laundry of the Hilton Hotel! What is ensured is cleanliness and the comfort of the guests!
The overall design style of the homestay is European retro style with black and white checkers as the main theme, complemented by gorgeous and exquisite European-style imitation candle chandeliers, as if it were a noble small palace from ancient Europe. The most characteristic is the corridor at the entrance of the rooms on the second and third floors. The sunlight shines through the glass and white curtains, making the entire corridor particularly clean and pure. With the enhancement of light and shadow and depth, you can easily take great photos!
In summary, meeting is fate! Grateful that we encountered the Ander Holiday Hotel on this journey, filling our trip with love and fragrance.
