Dali Qihai Erju B&B (Swan Branch) Reviews

A great place to stay, near to Erhai Lake. The host also lent a bicycle for free and they also give me suggestion on halal food near to homestay. Will stay here again if I coming Dali again!

Host super nice and room clean. View of balcony super super super nice, you even can see the sunset shines on the mountain. When morning just walking two minutes u will see the sunrise and seagull. Totally satisfied for staying at here. If I come here again, I will stay back. BTW no life, owner will help you take luggage if u stayed at upper floor.

Great view from the room, homestay owner offered us bicycles to ride around, the experience was great especially during 5-6pm when the sun was about to set. No breakfast was provided and do expect to carry luggages by yourselves to your room as the elderly homestay owner might not be able to help out.

Friendly owner, get in touch with me before check-in to make sure we arrive to the right place. Help to take our luggage. Free bicycle is a bonus! Nice room with big balcony facing erhai, really enjoy sitting at the balcony to enjoy the view and people watch. Recommended !

Room on 2nd floor with huge terrace was wonderful. You can see sunrise from very comfortable bed. Heater works well. Good hot water pressure. Female boss is lovely and helpful and gives great tips via Wechat since my Mandarin is poor. She and her family runs the hotel, great hospitality. It feels like coming home after a fun day exploring. Free bicycles provided. Location is great along the Lake Erhai Ecological Corridor. Good restaurants and cafes nearby. Big parking lot for guests is a huge plus. Highly recommended.

This is a homestay operated by a local family and located at S wan, a very strategic location. The owner is helpful and enthusiastic, recommending nice and affordable eatery around the area, lending the bicycle for us to explore the Dali Habitat Corridor. This place is suitable for tourist who would enjoy lazing around and just soak in to the scenery outside the window. Recommended!

After looking at many restaurants, I think this one is very cost-effective, better than I expected. It is comfortable to walk out of the balcony. It is also convenient to eat and drink around. The proprietress Xiao Zhao is very enthusiastic and introduced us to food and entertainment. If I go to Erhai Lake next time, I must stay at her restaurant again.

This B&B is really great! The service is not only good, but also very friendly. Not only did they recommend tourist routes, they also helped arrange chartered vehicles! The room was spacious and clean. You can see the sunrise by just walking a short distance. It is also very convenient to get a taxi! Recommended 👍🏻

The homestay is a small courtyard. The proprietress and her family live in the building next to it. There are three of us living there. If you book this room, everyone can sleep in a big bed. The room has a balcony. When you open the door, you can see the sea view of S Bay. You only need to go downstairs and walk out to watch the sunrise. There are many people outside during the day, and the location of the homestay is quiet in the bustling city. If you want to take a taxi to the ancient city, you only need to walk five minutes to the convenience store pick-up point outside. The location is easy to find and it is very convenient overall. There are also convenience stores and snack bars nearby. The room is very clean and the auntie comes to clean every day. The proprietress, Sister Zhao, is very nice. The plane was delayed and it was midnight when we arrived at the homestay. Sister Zhao was still waiting for us to check in. The driver who arranged for us to pick us up was also very good. Sister Zhao kindly recommended places for us to eat, drink and have fun, and also recommended a more convenient carpool for the next stop to Lijiang. The homestay provides bicycles, which can be cycled along S Bay. The soundproofing function of the room is not very good, but the guests are very conscious and their sleep is not affected at all.

The B&B is newly opened, with newer facilities and a good view from the room. It is right next to the S Bay Ecological Corridor. It is very pleasant to sit on the terrace, drink tea, chat, bask in the sun, watch the sea and see the seagulls. The owner, Xiao Zhao, is very enthusiastic and takes the initiative to introduce the surrounding environment, bicycle rental prices and restaurants. The only drawback is that the two large glass walls of Room 203 are not well insulated and soundproofed. It is very cold when sleeping at night without turning on the air conditioner. The washstand and coat rack are very crowded and narrow. The terrace is very spacious, but there is no place to hang clothes to dry. We stayed for 3 consecutive nights and got free airport transfer. The driver came to the B&B to pick us up on time as scheduled and took the initiative to help with the luggage. It was very good!

The boss is very welcoming and the hotel is in a great location. You can see the sea while lying on the bed. It's great!

The second stop of the Yunnan trip is Dali. We stayed in a hotel outside the ancient city of Dali for the first two nights. On the third day, we took a Didi to Erju B&B. The proprietress was very enthusiastic and called in advance and added WeChat to send me the hotel location. When we arrived at the B&B, the owner took the initiative to help us move our luggage to the room and also sent us nearby restaurants. The B&B we booked is in the S Bay Sea View Room with a terrace. We took a ride on the Haixi electric car in the afternoon. There is a very lively supermarket near the B&B. We bought coffee, cakes and snacks and then sat on the terrace to watch the sea and drink afternoon tea. It was really cool. It was also very convenient to eat in the evening. There are restaurants nearby. In the morning, you can see the sunrise as soon as you go downstairs. In short, the sea view B&B that I had looked at for a long time before going out did not disappoint us in terms of location or B&B.

Very nice room, great facilities, the lady boss is very welcoming, always helping with luggage, there is a small garden at the door, the plank road is just outside, and there is only one road away from Erhai Lake

High cost performance, friendly service, contacted us in advance, arranged parking and check-in, the room is very close to Erhai Lake, you can see the sunrise while lying in bed
