A family-run newly-opened gem with many amenities. Very clean and located among natural beauty, away from the tourist trap areas but still near enough for a quick ride on the electric scooters rented on the property. I was here in late April so it was quite hot already, and in hindsight I should have rented a room with a massage chair instead of a hot tub 😋 . A room on the higher floors would also have been more practical for the view but the first floor was fine. Outfitted with a western smart toilet, electric curtains, mood lighting, a projector and comfortable beds it was a very comfortable stay. The room was also very spacious.
The hosts are very friendly and accommodating and I thank them for their hospitality. 👌
Tips
1. There is an on-site restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Indoor and outdoor seating. Very tasty local cuisine.
2. The top floor hosts the clothes washers and gym but also has the best views. My pics are taken early morning
3. There is a small road in front of the property but it's quiet enough that it didn't bother me. Even with the floor to ceiling windows, the sound-proofing dampens the outside sound.
4. I didn't encounter any mosquitos during my stay in April
5. There is an elevator.
6. Remember to bring your action camera and attachments to record your scooter rides and other rides such as the bamboo rafts. The phone-mounts on the scooters are suitable only for navigating and not for recording videos on your phone.
7. If you'll be using the scooters, budget a morning or afternoon for one destination within a 10km radius. This will keep your trip relaxed. If you're comfortable riding in the evening, then you'll have more time.
8. At least a 3 day stay is recommended for a relaxed experience. I saw many tired tourists, so remember to keep water with you. Also toilet paper for your excursions since the public toilets in the tourist areas aren't likely to have and even have vending machines selling it, but were out of stock when I needed it.
9. The weather was fine and only a light drizzle on the morning of my arrival for my 3 day stay in late April. Remember your hat or umbrella for the sun.
10. Xingping ancient city is a crowded tourist trap but ok for a few photo opportunities or curio purchases. There is an area across the river with better photo opportunities.
11. Hang your washing outside to dry but not overnight because it might not be dry. Not sure if it was due to the humidity or dew.
