Dali Liao Fan Seaview Villa, hotel in Dali

Offering lake views, Dali Liao Fan Seaview Villa is an accommodation located in Dali, 13 km from Dali Museum and 14 km from Dali Railway Station.

I had an amazing experience at this guesthouse. The owner is incredibly friendly and accommodating, this is by far the best place I've ever stayed. The cozy atmosphere and beautiful sea view made the experience even better. We originally booked the family suite, but since the toilet and shower had a glass window, it was a bit inconvenient as we were a couple staying with a parent. The owner kindly gave us an additional sea view room for our mom at a deep discount, which was so thoughtful. The hospitality was beyond what we expected. We mentioned that we weren’t used to having noodles for breakfast, and the next morning, the owner surprised us with rose biscuits and eggs, which was perfect! If you’re considering this guesthouse, book it! You won’t regret it. I’ll definitely stay here again if I return to Dali.

    The location is at the top of the hill, take around 20 min from the Dali Train station to the hotel. Its best to take a taxi there as its on the hill and the taxi can stop right infront of the hotel. The owner is very friendly and generous. He offered dinner and breakfast is included. We had vegetarian noodle for breakfast and all the food is vegan friendly. The room was comfortable and the view was stunning, overlooking the Erhai Lake. Overall the hotel is gorgeous and the onwer is very friendly.

    Our stay was great! We chose the 2-bedroom suite, and was impressed by the size of the rooms and common space. Staff were very friendly and helpful - we were especially thankful that he helped us with the suitcases up and down 3 storeys and when we left to take a taxi. Breakfast provided was very the local 小锅米线, which was very hearty and warming. Location-wise, it was as shared by others before us, within walking distance to 大理古城.
