What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The voco property is built on a peninsula with water on three sides, and the architecture weaves Hui-style elements: whitewashed walls and dark timber detailing.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
On a peninsula in Qiandao Lake, surrounded by water on three sides and reservoir views.
The rooms
Most bedrooms look straight out over the lake, with freestanding soaking tubs and light oak joinery.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The curved outdoor infinity pool traces the peninsula's edge, positioned for sunset views across Qiandao Lake.
The gym
Treadmills and weight equipment line floor-to-ceiling windows, taking in three-sided views across the water.
At the table
Tables on the open-air dining terrace look straight out across the reservoir and its scattered islands.
