Kaili's most satisfying homestay is Leli Homestay
I saw the great reviews of this homestay on Ctrip and decided to stay here today. The design style of this homestay is very avant-garde, with ethnic minority elements as decorations, showing great attention to detail. The service from the housekeeper is very warm, and the location is convenient, with a snack street just a short distance away. I highly recommend trying Kaili's culinary signature, 'Red Sour Soup.'

The family day trip organized by Kaili Lelie Homestay was wonderfully niche
Staying in Kaili, I originally planned to stay for one night before catching the high-speed train, but who knew I'd discover their one-day niche light hiking route~
Although a bit pricey, it was a private group tour, and no one else joined that day, so it was just our family setting off.
Hiking into the mountains, everything was green and pristine, and then we heard the thunderous sound of a waterfall. After walking for just over 10 minutes, we arrived, and the waterfall was massive.
We also had a barbecue, but unfortunately, it rained, otherwise we could have played on paddleboards or taken a boat ride.
I have some regrets; I should have paid a little extra for a travel photographer.
I heard that two families who signed up were offered a complimentary travel photography session, I'll come back next time to try other small group activities.🤗🤗🤗

Is this the treasure homestay you're looking for?
Le Li Homestay, a homestay that makes me linger!
Every corner is exquisite, and any random shot is photogenic!
It's apparent that the owner is a person of great taste, from the overall design of the homestay to the fresh flowers in the lobby, the coffee shop, the chairs in the corners, and the aromatherapy, all exuding sophistication.
The facilities in the room are also very complete, stylishly furnished, and equipped with a washing machine, dryer, and even thoughtfully prepared non-woven bags. Awesome!
The homestay is just five minutes from the high-speed train station, very close and convenient. Just a short walk away is a food street, which foodies will absolutely love. Most importantly, the hustle and bustle of the food festival doesn't affect my rest, which is delightful.
The service is also superb! After checking in, they will send us local food recommendations, as well as suggestions for nearby attractions. For a lazy traveler like me, this is incredibly considerate. The butler can also give us advice and help plan our trip, wow, amazing! And they offer free high-speed train transfers! So thoughtful!
And the breakfast is also rich, with fresh fruit, freshly cooked noodles, free-range chicken porridge, milk, soy milk, and homemade dried radishes, which are perfect with the porridge!
When I visited during the Dragon Boat Festival, there were also local specialty zongzi. At that moment, I felt the festive atmosphere! Really, I could cry!
Oh, and there's afternoon tea too, the cakes are delicious and well-presented! Very exquisite! They also gave us a goodnight dessert, which was freshly made, and having a bowl of cool mung bean soup in the summer is just too blissful. After a day out, coming back to a bowl of cool mung bean soup before sleeping is so comfortable!
I came alone, and the ladies were very enthusiastic, I didn't feel awkward at all, it was very comfortable to be around them.
In a nutshell, coming here is a win! Everyone, go for it!
