Desert Sands as Canopy, Lightly Retro Luxury Living — A Designer Retreat Just 5 Minutes from Crescent Spring
In Dunhuang, there are two ways of life: one is the hurried check-in by tourists, and the other is the serene enjoyment of lying on the sand, listening to its whisper and gazing at the starry sky. We are the perfect embodiment of the latter.
Conveniently located, perfect for both relaxation and exploration
Situated beside the Singing Sands Mountain, this guesthouse is just a 5-minute walk from Crescent Spring scenic area, allowing you to easily avoid crowds and capture the most beautiful light and shadows at dawn and dusk. A 10-minute drive takes you into the vibrant atmosphere of Dunhuang's night market, where you can savor Silk Road delicacies and discover local treasures. With convenient access to transportation yet nestled in tranquil solitude by the desert, it offers the best of both worlds.
Old Money Elegance, Light Luxury Aesthetics
As a designer guesthouse, we embrace simplicity and adopt a light retro style, blending the understated sophistication of Old Money aesthetics. From vintage floral tiles to brass accents, from walnut wood furniture to soft warm lighting, every inch of space exudes refined taste that stands the test of time.
Ten room types, thirteen ways to arrive at beauty.
With only 13 guest rooms, we have carefully crafted ten distinctive room styles. Each is a private sanctuary, featuring either a private terrace or a healing hot tub—where you can embrace the gentle breeze or bathe under the stars and moonlight, letting all travel fatigue melt away in this moment.
Roof terrace, facing the sand mountain through day and night
On the rooftop terrace, endless sand dunes seem within reach—this is a perfect spot for photography and Instagram-worthy moments. By day, watch camel caravans stretch like threads across the desert; at dusk, admire the setting sun over the vast wilderness; as night falls, enjoy a light drink at the terrace bar, accompanied by the romantic glow of an open-air movie, or savor a signature cocktail to the soothing rhythm of music, embracing the most tender evening in Dunhuang.
Deep within the courtyard, one finds serene contentment.
Step into the outdoor courtyard on the first floor, where lush greenery and sandy stones blend harmoniously, creating a tranquil haven perfect for photography and quiet moments. Here, time slows down and the scenery stretches endlessly.
"The guesthouse was beautiful and unique, with views of the sand dunes. Although it wasn't at the scenic area entrance, the owner offered a shuttle service, which was just a few minutes' walk down a side path, making it relatively convenient. The room had a terrace, was spacious and comfortable, and the young man who managed the place was very friendly and talkative. He even helped us book tickets, which were cheaper than buying them ourselves, and recommended some local restaurants, all of which were delicious. Before leaving, we left some belongings at a hotel, and the owner kindly retrieved them and mailed them to us—a truly thoughtful gesture. Many guesthouses offer nice rooms, but such excellent service is rare."
