Reviews of Dali Liao Fan Seaview Villa

Its decor gives you a sense of peacefulness. On the day of arrival, the accommodation will pre-arrange free transfer from airport/train station. Room is comfortable and clean. Host is friendly and helpful. Location away from the hustle and bustle which is good if you wanna a relaxing stay.

Cannot get used to the see-through toilet and bathroom!

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! It's clean, spacious and has a nice heritage interior. The owner, Sam and the staff were absolutely lovely. They are so warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. They went out of their way to accommodate all our requests, which made us feel really well taken care of. One of the highlights was definitely the breakfast—the rice noodle soup was delicious and comforting, a perfect start to the cool day. Too bad our room doesn't face the sea due to the 3-pax room, but hopefully we will visit the next round and take the seaview room. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a stay with great service and a personal touch!

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.

This private hotel is decorated in ancient Daoist style, very unique, clean, nice with lots of plants, but also modern. We get fresh fruits and freshly made warm breakfast in local taste also with good nutrition balance. We enjoyed stay very much.

Location has beautiful Seaview scenery, only a bit far from old town

Our stay at this hotel in Dali was nothing short of extraordinary. The location is unbeatable, offering the best of what Dali has to offer. The facilities are top-notch, and the room views are absolutely breathtaking—truly a sight to behold. The rooms themselves are immaculate, showcasing a level of attention to detail that is rare to find. However, the true highlight of our stay was the owner. His presence brought an unparalleled sense of peace and tranquility to our trip, transforming our family vacation into an unforgettable experience. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of our stay was perfect. Words cannot fully capture the impact he had on us. To understand, you simply need to meet him yourself—your life will be enriched for the better. He is a person who embodies love, peace, and utmost professionalism. I’ve promised to return next September and April, as this place will be our family's sanctuary to rejuvenate and find harmony. We recommend this hotel 100%. Our experience in Dali would not have been the same without the owner and his incredible establishment.

Beautiful beautiful artistic vision used to design this villa, everything was thought of and the interior was amazing along with the sea view. But the best part has to be our host 萧楠 Xiao nan, helped us in everything and spoke fluent English, served us halal breakfast and recommended places for us to visit and eat at. Also served us tea everyday with great conversations

The bathrooms are transparent 🤣 if your going with family you will see them sitting on the toilet

Quiet villa facing Erhai with very big open balcony

Nothing

Basically everything about this place - stunning Erhai view, artistic design, tasteful decoration, and exceptional hospitality we received. Six stars out of five

None

We really like the designs of the room and the hotel. One room has balcony for tea drinking. Another family room is super spacious with 1 king bed and 1 queen bed. Another room has jacuzzi. All the rooms are designed in chinese art characteristics and super clean. I personally rate 12 out of 10, exceptionally very good. The breakfast is good. There is a good restaurant beside the hotel. We really recommend the hotel to anybody who would like to stay here

Please add coverage to the bathroom glass door because it is very inconvenient for adults

Our host was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about the area and helped us plan our itinerary. Very accommodating and calm. The atmosphere was peaceful and we had an amazing time. I wished we stayed longer because it was truly a spectacular and zen experience. The tea that our host brews is also tasteful! I don't think we can replicate that taste even with the same leaves.

No privacy in the bathroom

excellent hue
