GGuest UserMy family saw an ad for Dayuan Ark earlier and booked a deluxe king room for a day before it opened. The price was much more affordable than it is now.
The resort is very accessible; self-driving is recommended. There are plenty of free parking spaces in the underground garage, which is a big plus.
The room was a 55-square-meter king room, very spacious, though I didn't take any photos of it. The butler contacted us in advance and arranged a room with a great view. The large balcony overlooked the central water feature, as shown in picture 3. The room was well-equipped, the air conditioning was already on when we arrived, and there were welcome fruits. The drinks and snacks were also complimentary, which was a nice touch.
There was a complimentary afternoon tea with drinks, some desserts, and fried snacks. The fried snacks were quite tasty; it was easy to eat too many.
Currently, all activities at the resort are located on the B1 level. There's an indoor heated pool, gym, yoga, and many activities for children. I really enjoyed the video archery game; it was challenging. In the evening, there were also small 'chill night' activities offering various board games and drinks. Activity schedules were also available via a mini-program notification.
We had dinner at the Chinese restaurant. For two people, it cost 318 yuan. We ordered the pork jowl, which was delicious, and the variety of snacks was also quite rich. Honestly, everything we ate was very good; we both agreed on that.
We woke up late the next day, and breakfast officially ended at 10 AM, but they actually started clearing up around 10:10 AM, which I thought was great. The breakfast offered a rich selection of both Chinese and Western dishes. The freshly made pan-fried dumplings, noodles, and omelets were all delicious. One suggestion: the fruit and other food items provided by the hotel were cut into very large pieces. I feel this makes it easy for guests to take too much, leading to some waste.
It's a resort worth experiencing. It would be even more worthwhile to visit during the cooler seasons, like March or April, in the future.
