[2025 Dali Hotels] Travel Guide for Arcadia·anyin qingshan hotel (Updated Jul)

OMG, you won't believe this! In Dali's Shuanglang, I was completely mesmerized by a cliffside hotel—I'm not easily impressed, but the moment I opened the door of "An Yin · Qing Shan," I was utterly stunned! The hotel is brilliantly hidden: clinging to the cliff on one side and embracing Erhai Lake on the other! The designer must be a genius at "borrowing scenery." Standing inside, you see the misty Cangshan Mountains to your left and the sparkling Erhai Lake to your right—even the air feels crisp with the essence of nature! The rooms are absolutely breathtaking! Each one faces Erhai Lake directly—open the curtains, and you're greeted with an unobstructed sea view. Wake up to shimmering waves in the morning, watch the sunset paint the water orange from your bed in the evening, and fall asleep to the sound of waves at night... This "sleeping with mountains and sea" experience is what I call the "ultimate vacation luxury!" The room style is rustic and charming: old wooden beams frame floor-to-ceiling windows, linen sheets are soft and cozy, and sunlight filters through the window grilles onto the daybed, filling the air with a timeless warmth. Spend the afternoon sipping tea on the terrace, watching Cangshan peek through the mist while waves compose poetry against the shore. But the most magical moment is dusk! Golden sunlight floods the room, warming the linen sheets, waves scribble "sonnets of light" outside the glass, and copper bells chime softly, blending with the waves as they drift into your sleeves... In that moment, even breathing feels like a whisper with spring. Want to avoid crowds in Shuanglang? This "cliff hotel" is a must! Far from the hustle but super close to Erhai Lake—just navigate to "An Yin · Qing Shan" by car. Spring is the perfect time to visit: drive along the lakeside road with the wind in your hair, sip tea on the hotel terrace while gazing at the sea, and stroll the stone-paved streets of Shuanglang Ancient Town at dusk... This is what "poetic living" means—room for a breeze, a stretch of sea, and a sunset that refuses to set. 🏨 Aketiya · An Yin Qing Shan Hotel 📍 No. 8, Group 3, Qingshan Village, Huanhai East Road, Shuanglang Town, Dali City

✨Must-Visit Attractions: ~Dali Ancient Town: Climb Wuhua Tower for panoramic views, explore handicraft shops on Renmin Road, stay overnight in a quaint inn, and try grilled rushan (milk fan) and erkuai (rice cakes). ~Erhai Lake: Rent an e-bike to circle the lake (recommended spots: Panxi S Bend for sunrise, Xizhou rice fields, Shuanglang lakeside views), and ride along the ecological corridor to enjoy the scenery. ~Cangshan Mountain: Take the Ximatan Cableway to the summit for a bird's-eye view of Dali and Erhai, or hike the Yudai Cloud Trail, and visit the viral Jizhao Nunnery for vegetarian meals. ~Chongsheng Temple Three Pagodas: Capture the iconic reflection shot at the Three Pagodas Pool and learn about the history of the Nanzhao Kingdom. ✨Food Highlights: Don’t miss Xizhou crispy baba, sour-spicy fish, Bai ethnic Three-Course Tea, and grilled rushan.

Rent e-bikes from reputable platforms and check battery levels. Respect Bai customs and avoid temple taboos. ✨Budget: 3-4 days cost around ¥2000-3500/person (including transport, lodging, and tickets) for a hassle-free "wind, flower, snow, and moon" experience.

May Day holiday is coming soon More and more people are coming to Dali for vacation. Every time I come to Dali, there are so many B&Bs that I am overwhelmed. I just came back last week. Share some of the small hotels I stayed in A treasure homestay where you can enjoy the view of Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake without leaving home! [RoundNails]Akatia Anzhifeng Suihuakai √The overall milky white tones and accessories of the homestay give you a relaxing holiday feeling as soon as you enter. Sitting in the room, the scenery comes in through the window, and standing on the balcony, Erhai Lake is at your feet. √The first floor is the public area, the environment is very good, you can drink coffee, watch the sea, and be in a daze... [RoundNails]Akatia Anyinqingshan Hotel √The treasure homestay I encountered while driving along the seaside road is built against the mountain and faces Erhai Lake. Every room here faces the scenery. Looking at the sparkling sea in the afternoon is the most healing moment. [RoundNails] Akaitia Anyin Water Time √The B&B is hidden in the alleys of Shuanglang Ancient Town. When you go out, you will find the bustling ancient town, and when you return to the B&B, you can isolate yourself from the hustle and bustle. The seaside terrace on the first floor is great for taking photos. The homestay has only 7 rooms, which are quiet and private. The rooms are decorated with warm wood tones. If you don't want to go out one day, you can lie in the room and watch the clouds roll by. Dali's B&B is a landscape in itself. Remember to slow down your time. This way even daydreaming becomes poetic!

☁ The hotel is built against a cliff with a unique style. Outside your window is Erhai Lake, with blue skies and blue waters that instantly lift your mood. Every room has huge floor-to-ceiling windows, making it easy to take beautiful photos. 🛁 The rooms are extremely spacious, with private terraces and soaking pools. The hotel offers several special aromatherapy options—the ylang-ylang scent is highly recommended for relaxation. 🍰 The afternoon tea features a wide variety of desserts and drinks, and in the evening, they serve a seasonal goodnight sweet soup. 🧘‍♀️ The hotel also provides professional sound therapy experiences that will lull you to sleep, and you can do yoga facing Erhai Lake at the mountaintop (remember to apply sunscreen). 🍂 You can collect beautiful plants from the mountains to make botanical specimens—the hotel provides tools and frames, making for a meaningful souvenir. 📸 Every corner is photogenic. It's best to take photos before dusk, and light-colored outfits are recommended. The swimming pool and courtyard are the most photogenic spots.
