[2024 Ninglang Stay] Travel Guide for Lugu Lake Arabella Lake View Manor (Updated Dec)

In the middle of the mountain in Daluoshui Village, you can enjoy the lake view and feel as if time has stopped. The 270-degree lake view bathtub room allows you to enjoy the lake and mountain view while taking a bath. The RV with a skylight allows you to look up at the blue sky and white clouds. It is well-equipped and perfect for children to experience RV accommodation! The public area is very photogenic, like a scene from a blue-tinted movie.

My best friend strongly requested to extend the stay, it was so beautiful that she didn’t want to check out! 🩵French windows, sunset by the lake, blues moment, sunshine This hotel fulfills all my fantasies synonymous with beauty. In front of the large floor-to-ceiling windows, the beautiful view of Lugu Lake is unobstructed, like a natural oil painting! The hotel service is attentive and the rooms are clean and exquisite 🙆🏻‍♀️Every moment you stay here is enjoyment, starting a beautiful day from the moment you open the curtains in the morning Downstairs, there is an exquisite and nutritious breakfast provided by the hotel, as well as the warm and comfortable atmosphere of the hotel lobby: sofa heater, where you can take photos and chat with friends...

If you come to Yunnan for tourism and let me recommend a niche spot I would say the Lugu Lake, which is 'half Yunnan and half Sichuan'. Here, not only can you enjoy the breathtaking lake and mountain scenery, but also experience the matriarchal Mosuo culture. Nestled by the mountains and surrounded by pine forests, I come here to accompany the sun, moon, and stars, encountering the top romance of the journey! 👣 4 days and 3 nights itinerary: Day 1: Dali - Ninglang Yi Autonomous County - Arabella Lakeview Manor Day 2: Relax at the hotel, go to Tingxia Island for a cozy tea by the stove~ Day 3: 6-8 hours around the lake Huahai Pier (take a pig trough boat to see the water caltrop flowers) → Caohai (Walking Marriage Bridge) → Goddess Bay → Sichuan Lover's Beach → Luyuan Cliff Viewing Platform → Xiaoluoshui Viewing Platform → Gemu Goddess Mountain (take the cable car) → Lige Peninsula Viewing Platform → Lige Village → Daluoshui Village ⚠️ (Counterclockwise for better photos with the light) Day 4: Wake up naturally and return to Dali/Lijiang/Shangri-La 🏨 We chose to stay in the most bustling Daluoshui Village—on the hillside; it is a small world that is quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle, independent of the world. Lying in bed facing the mountain and lake scenery, looking at Gemu Goddess Mountain from afar. It is also one of the best spots to watch the sunset! The internet-famous hotel Tingxia Island and it share the same owner. We also booked a camping version of 'stove-cooked tea' with the front desk, which is really chill and pleasant!
