[2024 Dali Stay] Travel Guide for DALI JOY LUCK QINGSHI RESORT HOTEL (Updated Oct)
New aerial view of Dali, overlooking the beautiful scenery of Santorini.
Every day in Dali,
Wake up and be healed by the beautiful scenery in front of you 🍃.
The tenderness here will always heal you unintentionally...
.
At the last stop in Dali, we set our destination to the Ideal Kingdom, located on the east side of Erhai Lake along the Huanhai East Road 🌊. This place is often referred to as the "Santorini of China" by many, offering an ideal view of Jinsuodao Island, Erhai Lake, and a distant view of Xiaguan Town and Cangshan Mountain.
.
The entire town is built along the mountain ⛰️ with Moroccan-style white walls, Spanish-style buildings, and Santorini vacation vibes. Everywhere there are winding curves and arcs, romantic and full of artistic atmosphere.👏
.
Here are many high-end cliff hotels 🏨 We chose the Yuelianzhuang Qingshi Banshan Resort Hotel, where you can enjoy the scenery of "Santorini" without leaving your room, and look up at the sky freely ☁️ It feels like taking a vacation by strolling on the streets of Greece ✨ Looking far away is Erhai Lake, full of Instagram style~

🔍Unique design
The hotel adopts a high-end and elegant light industrial design style 🏨, creating an exceptionally low-key atmosphere throughout the space. The large area of cement and floor-to-ceiling windows are matched, just like a "hollow" art building on the edge of a cliff. The scattered light and shadow through the sunlight 🌞 make the space full of artistic atmosphere...
.
🔍Room facilities
This time we stayed in a family room, which had a particularly large area. It was equipped with smart home technology, a Dyson hair dryer, a Nestle coffee machine, and a separate large bathtub 🛀. They even set up a tent and provided toys for children, which was especially thoughtful. We stayed for two nights and still felt it wasn't enough!
.
🔍Thoughtful service
The service is really great, with one-on-one butler service. If there are any problems during check-in, you can communicate anytime. There are exquisite afternoon tea and goodnight sweet soup as gifts, and free shuttle service to the airport with advance reservation 👏 All kinds of details are perfect 💯.
.
🔍Top floor terrace
Make sure to visit the rooftop terrace of the hotel ❗️❗️ The scenery is absolutely stunning, with a 270-degree view of the sky and sea. You can also overlook the beautiful scenery of "Santorini". The swimming pool and the sea are connected, and you can take photos that make it look like you're walking on clouds~
.
In the evening, watching the sunset over Erhai Lake, you can finally appreciate the humanistic sentiment of "facing the sea, with spring blossoms" from Haizi. This is the correct way to open the land of ideals~
.
🔍Food enjoyment
The hotel's dining options include Chinese and Western cuisine. For breakfast, there are various types of precious wild mushrooms from Yunnan. For dinner, we ordered the waxed pork ribs hotpot 🍲, which had a strong meaty flavor and a satisfying chewiness. Adding some vegetables to cook together made it even more delicious and rich. We were truly satisfied~
.
🔍Photo-taking recommendations

This time, Erhai Lake is no longer in my dreams but right before my eyes
Waking up, I can see the Erhai Lake, a place that exists like a divine realm.
The morning mist has not yet cleared, and the entire lake is calm and gentle like a young girl.
🌅 In the afternoon, the sunlight quietly pours into the window, warming the skin.
This leisurely and lazy time is one of the most beautiful and happy moments in life. The place where I stand is Dali Yue Lian Zhuang Qing Shi Ban Shan Sea View Resort.
A hotel that has already formed a tacit understanding with Erhai Lake, nestled close to it.🏨
-
I really like the floor-to-ceiling windows in the room.
A 270-degree wide sea view brings the entire Erhai Lake into view.
The side window frames the blue sky, white clouds, and little trees, making every shot photo-worthy.
It feels like something out of a Hayao Miyazaki animation.
The room is equipped with comprehensive facilities.
-
The restaurant is on the first floor, with breakfast hours from 8:00 to 10:30 on weekdays.
On Saturdays/Sundays, it is extended to 11:00, which is very considerate!
The presentation is exquisite💖, and the fruits and vegetables are fresh and crisp.
Drinks from the mini-bar are free of charge.
The waiters are very enthusiastic! The hotel has a parking lot🅿, which makes parking very convenient.
The hotel also offers a free shuttle service to and from the airport, which is so nice!

The sunset that you fall in love with at first sight must be right here
Romantic is not only the Erhai Lake, but also me watching the sunset by the sea.

No matter how much time passes
I still like the slow pace of Dali
This place gives me enough sense of relaxation
The sun rises and sets, just ordinary
But I still get lost in one of the sunsets

The sunset in the evening is too beautiful
A small piece of Bai nationality old houses is set on Jinsuo Island
Two cruise ships slowly pass by on Erhai Lake

The scenery in front of me
Has a kind of warm magic
-
The hotel's food is also very good
The smoked pork ribs hotpot is fresh and tastes nice
The exquisite afternoon tea paired with the hotel's unique scenery
Is really great~
In the quiet gray-toned room

To wash away the fatigue of the day
Lazily lying in the room
Unlimitedly emptying myself

In the Ideal State
There is such a place
While feeling the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas
Also have the ultimate experience of life

Overlooking the Sea Palace of Santorini | Yuelian Zhuang Qing Shi Half Mountain
Dali's Santorini, which resembles the Aegean Sea in Greece, has long been a popular honeymoon destination and a hotspot for internet celebrities. Everyone who comes to Dali also wants to see her beauty. Santorini is located east of the Dali Sea and is the best place to watch the sunset by the Erhai Lake. If you want to stay here and see the Cangshan Erhai, then the Sea Palace on top of Santorini - Yuelian Zhuang Qing Shi Half Mountain is the most suitable.
Yuelian Zhuang is a local hotel brand in Yunnan. The popular Yuelian Zhuang Pineapple Hotel in Xishuangbanna is also theirs. They are good at creating internet celebrity landmarks. Dali Yuelian Zhuang is no exception. With its superior geographical location, it overlooks the entire Santorini. Since its opening, it has been in high demand. During the day, you can watch the clouds roll in and out of the Cangshan from the infinity pool, and at night, you can watch the stars fall into the Erhai Lake. The romance of Dali is all here!
The hotel configuration can be said to surpass luxury hotels, with an infinity pool facing the Cangshan Erhai, a sea-view gym, and a Santorini panoramic viewing terrace that cannot be found in Dali. The luxurious double basin bathroom, most of the rooms are equipped with a large bathtub facing the Erhai Lake, the holiday experience is excellent. High-end bedding, mattresses and bathroom products are needless to say, Dyson hair dryers, Spanish royal brand Yebi shampoo, capsule coffee machines, free minibar, cloakroom, and even shoe polishing cloth and matches are all prepared.
The restaurant is also a luxurious crystal style, especially suitable for princesses to dine here. The breakfast is rich and delicious, and the authentic Yunnan rice noodles are indispensable. The lobby bar is a home-style coffee shop, it's very nice to come to Santorini for coffee and afternoon tea, have you thought about which princess to bring?

This is not the Peak in Hong Kong, but the top of Erhai Lake in Dali, do you believe it?
In Dali, I found the same beautiful scenery as the Peak in Hong Kong

Dali Ideal State｜Friends thought I went to Greece
🌈Before I came to Dali Ideal State, I thought this was just a man-made internet celebrity check-in place. After coming here, I found that it is really suitable for girls to take pictures
·
🌈Because many places can only be entered by guests for shooting, so I chose to stay here for one night and chose the very beautiful Yuelian Manor Bluestone Half Mountain Sea View Resort Hotel
·
The overall design uses fair-faced concrete
Matched with design-conscious soft furnishings
Return to the original architecture itself
In the natural change of light and shadow
During the day
You can sit in the room and watch Cangshan Erhai
The irregular viewing bathtub🛁 can wash away the fatigue
·
'One room one butler'
One room and one butler, you can also enjoy one-way train station/airport pick-up service, which is very considerate. It takes half an hour to get to the airport and 20 minutes to the train station
·
'Catering'
Choose one of three set meals, if there are many people, there will be a buffet. I really like the dinner's cured ribs hot pot🍲, which instantly pulls back memories of Lijiang, dreaming back to the snow mountain🏔️, and it is also matched with seafood🦐 and vegetables. This hot pot is suitable for autumn and winter. Don't worry about being hungry when you stay here. When you enter the room, the welcome snack is ready. It is a freshly baked flower cake, and there is delicious afternoon tea, various desserts and freshly baked bread. Coffee lovers must taste the colorful coffee yyds👍
·
'Photo position'
🧭Shooting time: 4:00-6:00 in the afternoon (the sun sets around 6 o'clock, and there will be Tyndall phenomenon if the weather is good)
📎The rooftop of the hotel has an outdoor swimming pool and glass windows, which are suitable for taking pictures
📎There is a rainbow🌈 staircase at the door, which is also very photogenic
📎There is a sky garden like a patio on the second floor, which is very beautiful
📎The 'Magpie Bridge' in the park is also good for taking pictures in the morning, and there are more tourists after 10 o'clock
·
'Surroundings'
✅During the day, you can go to Jinso Island opposite the mountain, there is a sea-rounding plank road, or you can take a boat to tour Erhai Island
✅If you like to take pictures, you can take beautiful photos without leaving the Ideal State
✅If you drive by yourself, it is recommended to go around Wase, Xiaoputuo, Wenbi Village, and go along Haidong Road, all the way is the scenery
