Legendary service and breathtaking views on the Yulong River

Welcome to the Yangshuo Mountain Retreat, a gem among Yangshuo hotels. The Retreat was originally conceived as a simple eco lodge where China expats could escape from the chaos of crowded, polluted mega-cities. In the beginning, we didn't have a website or computer, just a telephone and fax at the front desk. As we grew in popularity, we found it necessary to upgrade facilities, and so added wireless broadband, and even a pizza oven! But the rooms have remained simple as when we began: no telephone, no TV, and a locally made beds & mattress. We have stayed true to the authenticity of our original concept, like making our own bamboo furniture and offering a simple menu with fresh local dishes and a few western favorites. We now offer wines but remain a simple country inn where people from all over the world can go to experience the beauty and serenity of Yangshuo. We're unique among Yangshuo hotels for our commitment to sustainability and empowering the wonderful local people who run the Mountain
