【Suggestion】

A pure white utopia by the Erhai Lake! This hotel is so beautiful it brought me to tears
If the end of the sea is the romantic destination, then it must be referring to the sea view rooms of Dali Santorini. Standing on the balcony, you can gaze at the Cangshan Mountains, which are as dark as ink, and the Erhai Lake, which is as blue as the sky. This might just be the dream vacation spot in one's heart!
Dali Santorini • Cloud Top Serenade Sea View Resort Hotel is located in the ancient town of Shuanglang in Dali City, with a superior geographical location, surrounded by natural landscapes such as Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountains, as well as famous attractions like Xizhou Ancient Town and Butterfly Spring. The white walls, decorated with a blue swimming pool, present a pure and elegant Mediterranean style, full of exotic charm, making one feel as if they are on the Aegean Sea. The hotel also has many beautiful spots for taking pictures, such as: cave pools, rooftop swimming pools, a piano on the sea, and cave hotels.
The hotel offers a variety of room choices such as bubble pool double rooms, cave swimming pool sauna rooms, and sea view suites. Each room comes with a private garden, but the sea view rooms are more popular and require advance reservation. The floor-to-ceiling window design in the rooms allows for an unobstructed view of the sea. In the morning, pull open the curtains to let the sunshine fill the room and the sea breeze caress your cheeks, bringing joy to your heart. In the evening, you can also enjoy the sunset glow on the balcony and feel the tranquility and grandeur of the sea.
Moreover, the hotel has an infinity pool on the top floor where you can swim to your heart's content, feel the coolness of the water and the breeze of the sea, and take in the beautiful scenery of Dali.

Embark on a romantic rendezvous, the dawn and dusk
By the side of Erhai Lake, this white small settlement in Dali, where petit bourgeois sentimentality is ubiquitous, is no less impressive.
White Cave Half-Mountain Hotel, Sky Pool, Water Piano... Every frame is like a blockbuster movie, just watching the sparkling waves under the sunset here is extremely beautiful.
This time, we chose to stay at the three-story Cloud 9, which has a great view. The larger rooms next door even have a balcony pool. The water piano is located outside the balcony of the Cloud 9 coffee shop on the top floor, and guests can enter for free with their room card.
But if you don't live here, you can still buy an afternoon tea set and check in at the water piano.
If you want a sky pool, choose the homestay under the Heavenly Melody below the clouds.
Inside the scenic area, there is also a good restaurant that serves local Yunnan cuisine at a reasonable price. If you stay inside, you can choose nearby. After all, if you drive out once, you will need to pay another parking fee of 40 yuan when you come back. Staying in the scenic area hotel is not free either.
