Secret Bay Hotel is secluded by the Nujiang River and in the Secret Forest, recreating the aesthetics of the Lisu people with a 21-acre landscape. Six century-old Lisu houses have been meticulously renovated, and 22 panoramic guest rooms stand along the river, with 270° floor-to-ceiling windows offering a breathtaking view of the Nujiang River and the surrounding mountains.
The hotel seamlessly blends the Lisu people's fire pit culture with modern wabi-sabi design. While preserving the original stone walls and wooden beams, it is equipped with smart room control systems, high-end bedding, private mountain spring baths, panoramic terraces, and forest courtyards. The infinity pool with a river view, the meadow bar, the forest meditation tea space, and the mountain-themed restaurant all cater to the needs of high-end guests for relaxation.
Special experience services include 24-hour private butlers, original Lisu folk songs, night tea talks by the fire pit, secret forest hiking guides, and highland tea ceremony experiences. The upcoming beach coffee house and starry sky camping base will allow guests to fully enjoy the wild luxury vacation experience.
"After a 9-hour drive, I was exhausted when I arrived at the hotel. But I was amazed by the service and environment: As soon as I got out of the car, I called the front desk, and a staff member immediately came out to help with my luggage. The staff at the front desk, restaurant, and housekeeping were all very welcoming and patient. The environment was simply stunning; nestled in a village along the Nu River, it was built against the mountainside, with lush greenery and beautifully arranged rocks—mostly natural scenery. To get to the hotel, you have to cross a suspension bridge, which I think is a unique feature. Lying in my room, I could see blue skies and white clouds, green mountains and ”yellow” water (the Nu River is a bit murky), and even a small natural waterfall… I didn't want to leave! 😂"
