Thank you, hubby! Stayed at the pinnacle of mountain retreat aesthetics in Nankunshan

Pella Villa in Nankunshan features an earthy color palette with natural materials like wood, gray tiles, and rattan. The architectural layout follows Nankunshan's terrain, with sloping roofs mirroring the mountain contours, while some areas draw inspiration from traditional southern village clusters, creating a beautifully layered space. The tatami tea room faces a bamboo grove, and the second-floor bedroom has a skylight for stargazing. The cantilevered balcony comes with a private granite hot spring tub and a complimentary essential oil bath salt set. Amenities include MARSHALL speakers, a custom aromatherapy diffuser, and Australian APPELLES Black Label bath products. Breakfast features freshly made Hakka mugwort rice cakes and house-ground soy milk. Must-try dishes include steamed Nankunshan free-range chicken with shallots and claypot-braised reservoir fish head. The wine cellar stocks lychee ice wine from Lingnan boutique wineries, available for tasting with a cheese platter upon reservation. Bamboo grove afternoon tea offers bamboo tube rice and wild honey tea. Facilities include a sauna and SPA room with customized herbal therapies using Nankunshan herbs. The hillside glass yoga pavilion offers morning tai chi classes, while the outdoor children's sand pool has a hot spring water circulation system for warm sand play in winter. A short hike leads to Nankunshan National Forest Park's pristine secondary forest, where silver pheasant flocks are often spotted at dawn. At R&F Lingnan Garden, experience Cantonese intangible cultural heritage with Xiangyunsha dyeing. The Yonghan Town's mountain-water tofu feast is worth a special trip.
