Dali Erhai's Divine Lakeside Retreat

Who can relate, folks? I’ve discovered a heavenly lakeside retreat in Dali that frames the stunning Erhai scenery right outside your window! 🌊

ManShan·That Year in July takes "seaside vacation" to the next level! Located in the prime viewing spot of Wase Village, this place offers an unobstructed panoramic view of Erhai. Wake up to the sunrise painting the lake red, watch the sunset sink behind the Cangshan Mountains, and marvel at the gradient orange soda hues of the evening sky. Every snapshot here is wallpaper-worthy, no filters needed!

Behind the Bai-style exterior lies a modern, sophisticated interior. With wooden furniture, rattan elements, and floor-to-ceiling glass windows, the sunlight streaming in feels warm and soothing. The sea-view room I booked even came with a scenic bathtub—soaking in it while watching the clouds drift by, you can literally breathe in the fresh, lake-scented air. This is what a vacation should feel like!

Breakfast features local specialties like rice noodles and Erkuai, so delicious you’ll want to lick the plate clean. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly, offering detailed recommendations for lakeside routes and hidden gems. Plus, free parking is a huge bonus for road trippers! In the evening, relax on the inn’s little terrace, sip coffee, and watch the moon rise—Erhai’s romance is truly unparalleled.

Skip the overcrowded tourist hotspots in Dali. This artistic villa with its 360° lake views is the perfect place to rejuvenate your body and soul!
