It's hard to imagine that Mount Emei has a Nordic forest fairy tale hot spring tree house.
The homestay is located at the highest point of Qiliping, Mount Emei. To preserve the original trees, part of the original tree is designed as a viewing platform, allowing the trunk to penetrate the roof, creating an original ecological residence of "tree first, then house, tree and house integrated."

Elegant decorations and warm lighting create a cozy atmosphere. The rooms are equipped with the "Cloud" natural latex series jointly created with Moonlight Family, allowing you to experience the feeling of sleeping on a cloud.

Yuanshan Restaurant: Located halfway up the mountain, it is truly a cloud-side restaurant, with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and a fireplace in winter. Enjoy the view while dining. Sky Lounge: Have a drink, listen to music, sit by the window, and enjoy the distant mountain view while drinking.

💙 Features
We chose the treehouse 🌲, which felt like a dream world. The room is in the middle of the trees, and you can open the window to embrace the green trees. You can also soak in the private hot spring in the cabin, look at the rolling mountains, and enjoy a moment of peace.
💙 Food
The hot pot in the evening was amazing, with a carefully arranged and nutritious mix of meat and vegetables: fresh tripe, meat, 🦐, and vegetables 🥬. Dinner was reassuring and stress-free.
The butler prepared a stove and fruit for after dinner. Have a cup of hot tea to warm up in the early winter.
💙 Experience
The art gallery has photography and painting exhibitions 🎨, and the art gallery and glass walkway are great for taking photos 📷.
There is a deer called Yuanyuan 🦌, and Yuanyuan's antlers are placed in the public area, which are unique like works of art. The children were curious when they first saw the antlers, and we searched 🔍🦌 together to learn that 🦌 shed their antlers in autumn and winter and grow new antlers and spots in spring.
The scenery along the way is beautiful, with forests, bamboo forests, bridges, and mountains.
In winter, this place must have a different flavor, and I can't wait to come back.

🌳Location and environment:
The hotel is located halfway up Mount Emei, as if it were a quiet corner of nature left especially for travelers. Surrounded by lush forests, the air is intoxicatingly fresh. The scenery here is breathtaking, whether in the first light of dawn or the glow of the setting sun, like a landscape painting unfolding before your eyes.🌄
🏡Room experience:
There are a variety of room types here, each with its own unique features. I stayed in a treehouse room, which was simply dreamy! The room is independent and private, with a terrace facing the forest and distant mountains, and you can feel the embrace of nature as soon as you open the door. The room is exquisitely decorated and well-equipped, with underfloor heating and air conditioning, down bedding, smart toilets, branded toiletries, and more, all of which show quality in the details. In addition, the room has an open-air bath, where you can soak in the bath and enjoy the beautiful scenery in the mountains and forests, which is simply too comfortable😌.
🦌Cute pets:
The hotel has a super cute sika deer named "Yuanyuan", which is gentle and friendly, and the moment I saw it, my heart was melted💕. There is also a lively parrot named "Daodao", which hops around the restaurant and is very interesting, adding a lot of vitality and fun to the whole hotel.
🍽Food and drink:
I have to mention the hotel's food and drink, which is really delicious! I highly recommend their spicy grilled Guizhou fish and mushroom soup hot pot, which is absolutely delicious, with fresh ingredients and generous portions. The breakfast is also very rich, and the noodles made by the chef are unforgettable😋.
🎉Leisure facilities:
The hotel also has a wide range of leisure facilities. There is a beautiful cloud bar where you can have afternoon tea and enjoy the scenery during the day, and have a drink and feel the romantic atmosphere at night. There is also an art gallery, an elegant book bar, a sky restaurant, and a glass walkway viewing platform. From the glass walkway viewing platform, you can overlook the beauty of the entire mountain forest, and the photos you take here are super photogenic📷.
🚗Convenient transportation:
The transportation is also relatively convenient, it takes about 2.5 hours to drive from Chengdu, and if you choose public transportation, you can take the high-speed train to Emeishan Station and then transfer to a bus. However, it is recommended to drive, so you can explore the surrounding scenery more freely.

Move into a treehouse in the mountains
Move into a treehouse in the mountains | Emei Mountain World-Apart Hot Spring Homestay
Whenever I feel tired, I always want to escape the city. As one of the four famous mountains in China, Emei Mountain was added to my itinerary early on. This time going to Emei Mountain, I chose a very famous homestay, which is very close to the scenic area and convenient for travel.
It takes about 2.5 hours to drive from Chengdu. If taking the high-speed train▲, it's about an hour's drive on mountain roads from Emei Mountain station. The mountain roads are all asphalt and very smooth, so there's no need to worry about difficulty in travel.
The homestay is nestled among the mountains. The view from the outside is very good, and living in it, breathing in the
fresh scent of trees, makes me feel much more open-minded.
The treehouse is the signature room type of the homestay. The owner is committed to quality and the protection of the natural ecology. In order to preserve the original trees, part of the tree was designed as an observation deck, allowing the trunk to penetrate the roof, creating an 'original ecology' dwelling where the tree and house are integrated. The names of the 5 treehouses are also very pleasant: Zhen Nan, Run Nan, Pine Nut, Chestnut, Hazelnut. Inside the treehouse, there is also a hot spring pool. At the quiet night, soaking in the hot spring and looking up, you can see the stars※ twinkling.
There are many scenic spots in the homestay that are great for checking in, such as the internet-famous observation deck, the sky corridor, the glass walkway, the sky restaurant, and the cloud-top·bar, all suitable for playing and taking photos.
There is also an art gallery· to visit~ and take the opportunity to see the cute pets raised in the homestay, a sika deer and 2 little parrots, which are especially gentle and affectionate!
The homestay offers free breakfast, coffee, etc., and dinner can be had in the sky restaurant or the lobby. I highly recommend the local specialty spicy grilled Guizhou fish, paired with seasonal vegetables, the taste is really supreme. The health-preserving mushroom soup small hot pot is also very good, and the homestay's specially prepared spicy dipping sauce is great, and you can add vegetables for free~
Nearby attractions are all relatively close:
Forest Zen Path 5min, Gaomiao Ancient Town 20min, Emei Mountain Gate Zero Kilometer 20min, Caoxi Plank Road 5min, Dream Hot Springs 5min.
It's really suitable for couples and friends to come and relax together

This private hot spring tree house in Emei Mountain, Chengdu, is so vacation-like!
This private hot spring tree house in Emei Mountain, Chengdu, is so vacation-like!
For the first time after resigning, I took my parents on a trip. I took advantage of the weekend to take my parents to Emei Mountain for a vacation. During the day, I walked in the forest to absorb oxygen, drank coffee and read books in the book bar, and soaked in the hot spring and ate hot pot while watching the stars in the evening. The family sat together under the forest tree house, just like when we were sitting around the stove and talking about dreams when we were young.
The overall environment of the homestay is full of fairy spirit. It is divided into the main building area, activity area, and 5 independent tree houses and 2 cave houses. From a distance, it looks like a fairy house in the forest. There is also a cute sika deer in the yard, which is the favorite of children. When the evening falls and the lights in the yard are on, it's my favorite time. This blue hour is the most beautiful time of the day.
Check in at the sky bar, take a sip while looking at the mountain view outside.
The outdoor glass viewing platform is a must-visit spot for taking photos.
The panoramic book bar on the top floor overlooks the clouds and mountains, drinking tea and reading books.
You can feed the cute sika deer, which is very suitable for parent-child travel. Children will be very happy. There is also a special children's play area in the distant mountains.
Rich experience activities, special cultural and creative exhibition area, often hold various art exhibitions.
There are a variety of room types to choose from: pool room, bathtub viewing room, family suite, independent tree house, each room has its own view.
