FANTASTIC EXCURSIONS
Wonderfully converted from what was a sugar mill in the 1960s, the Alila Yangshuo meets all the expectations of a high-end resort in this much-eulogised corner of China. Expect modern facilities, beautifully appointed guestrooms and fantastic excursions.
The Alila Yangshuo is a chic riverside property enveloped by the rural splendour of Yangshuo, whose awe-inspiring karst landscape bordered by the peaceful Li River resembles that of a beautiful Chinese painting. Down river from the celebrated city of Guilin, Yangshuo offers a quieter, arguably more authentic, taste of rural China. Alila Yangshuo encourages its guests to make the most out of the region by offering a selection of carefully crafted activities. From painting and tai chi classes to guided tours of traditional markets where merchants pile their bamboo rafts high with goods, you can be sure of a truly immersive experience.
Meals are served in the laidback Sugar House restaurant, which used to be the sugar pressing room in days gone by. The farm-to-table menu, featuring both Chinese and international dishes, makes full use of seasonal, local ingredients. Guestrooms and suites are stylishly simple and comfortably furnished, all fitted with modern amenities such as LCD cable TVs and Wi-Fi.
