Yuanyang Homestays

It was already 9 o'clock when we arrived that day. I contacted the hotel in advance to prepare dinner. This meal will be remembered for a long time. It was super delicious and paired with the hotel's own wine, which was perfect. I chose rice noodles for breakfast. The more I ate, the better it tasted. If my stomach wasn’t so full, I could have finished the soup. Because I arrived late in the day, the mountain road was a bit difficult to walk. I kept going around and around, but it was worth it to see the beautiful scenery. I saw a review before saying that the hotel room is far away from the lobby. I think it is acceptable to go down a few slopes. It is also good to watch cows playing with chickens. There are some details in the hotel that need to be paid attention to. The power switch in the room where the children lived was not repaired, which was a bit deducted.

It was a pleasant stay in Hua wowo hotel. Air quality was super good there. It was the best place for watching the sunrising in the yard or in the room of the hotel, very nice view. Room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. It was a quiet place for holidays. Hotel restaurant offered local planted vegetables and local raised fishes from the terraces. The owner and other staffs of the hotel were very friendly and helpful. We will choose the same hotel if we visit again.

The service provided by the boss is very, very OK. It is worth my driving thousands of miles to come to this world cultural heritage. The meaning of journey is to discover, there are surprises and disappoin**ents. When you fall asleep with anticipation all night, you will find that you can't sleep at all. Every time you open the curtains, it will give you a feeling of surprise. The word ”beautiful” cannot be used here, because it is not enough to describe its stunning beauty. Only surprise can match the indescribable scenery of the terraced fields illuminated by the morning light. On the sightseeing road, it is strongly recommended that all drivers and passengers open the windows, blow the wind, and face the original fragrance of trees, flowers and plants. Please forget your worries and immerse yourself in the sea of ​​clouds in the morning and the sunset in the evening. When you check out, the boss will give you red rice 😄. In summary: it is not unaffordable to live in more than 1,000, and this location is really more cost-effective.

Jacky's is the place for me as someone who has very limited understanding of Chinese. Moreover, many of the older villagers can't speak Chinese anyway. Jacky is a native of this place. I chose a very basic room which was sufficient for my needs. He was most helpful with information on photography, himself being a photographer and Hani culture. He arranged arrival and departure for me and helped with luggage. Please be aware that you will be in a very rural and once remote part of the country, so don't expect luxurious surroundings. If you are squirmish about mud, dirt and animal droppings, well, get used to it and enjoy one of the wonders of human effort and creation. If you are a photographer, do yourself a favour and also get a drone. Incomparable and endless views of rice terraces. And yes, Duoduo their dog can take you for a walk down to the terraces.

The accommodation conditions can be considered five-star in the local area, and the scenery is unparalleled. From the room, you can enjoy the scenery of layers of terraced fields. There is no need to go to Duoyishu Observation Deck at 5 o'clock to get a spot for shooting in the morning. You can take pictures of blockbusters from the rooftop upstairs. The boss has a background in art, is well-informed, and is a master of photography. It's a pity that it was foggy the next morning, so it was wasted...

Ideal location (10 min walk to incredible scenic spot), room is okay, the host speaks fluent english and can help you get to and from the hostel. Food in the village is very good. You can go to and from the different places around the mountain very easily because the people driving here will offer service. If you struggle to find the place, just ask the host or look for the ”K2” mark written in red on the house.

The room is clean and warmly decorated. You can watch the stars on the roof. The boss and the landlady are enthusiastic. You can only eat when the landlady is there. Just around 200 meters from the Jingkou Village Observation Deck, there are also triple rooms, suitable for family travel.

What a great location for being amongst the terraces! We splurged and got the terrace view room, and it was very nice with a great view, comfortable bed, warm blankets, and hot shower. The room has an unblocked view of the terraces. But if you don't get that room, the upstairs balcony has the very best view. But we enjoyed watching the sunrise from our bed with hot tea. Lucian is really great! He explained to us different hiking options for seeing other views. His English is really good too so you can ask him any questions about the area. He has a sweet old dog and a cute young cat. He's also available to pick you up if you get lost or have trouble getting back after sunset. There are 2 good restaurants a 10 minute uphill walk away, or Lucian can cook you meals, which are also great. Thanks Lucian! -Travis and Elisha (Colorado, USA) PS. Downloading maps.me beforehand will definitely help with meditation

I booked a terraced view room for my parents. I originally looked at the picture and imagined that I could drink tea in the room and enjoy the view. However, when I arrived, I found that the room was completely different from the picture. There was no tea table and no floor-to-ceiling window view. There was a wall behind the TV. There is a small balcony but there is no privacy outside facing other buildings. Breakfast is okay, rice noodles, eggs and steamed buns are enough to fill you up. On the first night to watch the sunrise, the hotel also arranged for breakfast to be eaten at Azheke, so that we didn’t have to go back and forth, which was great.

We came here with a friend who was an attentive boss. This is a terraced field scenic spot and the fog is very heavy. The boss told us in advance and told us to pay attention to safety, which was very heartwarming. You can watch the sunrise directly from the room, which is amazing.
