Lijiang Shanshui Tan Homestay

I love this homestay. I have stayed in this place for the third time. It’s a beautiful, well maintained guesthouse with a caring, lovely owner in one of the most pretty, tiny mountain villages that I have seen so far in China. But I need to issue a serious warning about the recent developments on the hiking trails that surround the village. It took the young people who are now massively flocking these trails, less than a year to completely trash the trails with plastic garbage. This is NOT OK. This insensitive behavior is devastating and upsetting. It is unacceptable! The principle that all hikers and trekkers should follow when they enter the mountains is “to leave no traces”. Every plastic bottle, every plastic bag, every plastic food wrap, every oxygen bottle, every plastic rain cape, every aluminum bin, everything, that someone takes into the mountains, he or she has to take out of the mountain and to properly discard in the village’s official garbage bins. The purity and peace of natural places like this is fragile and vulnerable. Don’t take it for granted. Don’t destroy it.

Lovely homestay with beautiful view, friendly owner, room is spacious, clean and comfortable. Highly recommended.

My wife and I (Singaporean couple) stayed on the 9th and 10th December 2023. Overall, great value-for-money. Their service and hospitality left a deep impression. From getting us additional warmers so that we don't sleep cold, buying tickets of tourist attractions at locals' price, providing adaptors for us, arranging transportation, suggesting the fun places to go, and the breakfast - lightly flavored and healthy meal -and the amazing view of the snow mountain at 720am. They even help us to exchange our cash into smaller denomination when we ran into problems paying locals for their tea as they only accept wechat pay and we don't have one set up. You will get the full experience if you can speak mandarin with them. Oh, and the room is big and is very clean. -- 我们是一对从新加坡来的夫妇。这个民宿体验非常有意思。首先，他们的性价比非常高。服务很到位，也很快。沟通起来，感觉很像是他们村里的一份子。是一个很舒服也很亲切的体验。家族生意，什么都亲力亲为。房子是女儿打理的。早餐是妈妈准备的。我们很喜欢他们准备的早餐。简单，清淡，可口，营养丰富。印象最深刻的是他们的人情味。 最重要是，房间大，也很干净。

五月底的小院子開滿了鮮花 房間乾淨舒適，庭院安靜，早餐簡單好吃 是村子裏村民家自己院子改成的民宿，老闆就是村子裏的納西族，切親熱情，一邊給你做早餐，一邊和你聊天 喜歡安靜的推薦，這家性價比也不錯

玉湖村這個石砌房子，家戶養著馬的小村落，地方雖然偏遠，但這裡真是個好愜意的民宿，裝潢簡約雅致，很放鬆，泡一壺茶，享受這裡的寧靜，遠處還可以眺望雪山，這裡價格也很合理，值得推薦。

民宿氛圍很好！原本打算衹住一天試試環境，沒想到環境、服務都這麼好，就直接續住了一晚😄 這裏裝修風格很治癒清新，老闆在民宿院子到處都有種花種樹，自然風景優美。對喜歡拍照打卡的朋友來説，來這裏再合適不過了。 民宿內的設施很齊全，特別是充電插頭很充足，數過總共有9個插頭，不會發生大家擠着用插頭的現象。浴室和廁所 有分隔，能充分利用時間，非常方便。熱水也沒有間斷，特別特別好！！ 老闆也特別熱情，當晚因為對行程還有些不理解，想着順便問問老闆，老闆特別仔細和認真地給我們講解了周圍的打卡點和一些遊玩事項，還給我們推薦了幾家在景區附近的本地平價餐館。去吃了好幾回，價格確實也都特別實惠，也很好吃！ 最後住的一晚因為第二天要一大早趕飛機，就麻煩了老闆早一些做好早餐，做的早餐也特別好吃用心。非常非常感動☺️☺️想着下次還來這邊玩的話，可以考慮再來這裏住！！
