We loved absolutely everything about our stay at Serene Cove. The rooms and the premise are beautiful and offer a perfect view on Guilin scenic mountains. The owners who run the place are incredibly heartwarming and caring for their guests, they made sure that our stay would be as fun and special as possible. Their food from breakfast to dinner including afternoon cake is made with love and you can truly taste it. This place felt like home we were so sad to leave, it will always have a special place in our hearts. We can’t way to go back next time we travel to China, and would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Nothing. We would highly recommend to anyone.

I had the most fantastic stay in Serene Cove - I was incredibly sad to leave - the place is super beautiful, the food is delicious, the couple who own the place are very friendly, helpful, lent me a bike, made amazing cakes, helped me learn Chinese and I would have loved to stay longer.

Fantastic service - friendly, accommodating, kind, and helpful. Chic design. Comfortable. Nice view and wonderful to wake up to the sounds of so many birds.

I had heard the food was fantastic but unfortunately the head chef and owner was away. The food was disappointing - extremely bland, no flavor or spices at all. (But, separately, the dessert I had which had been pre-made by the chef was delicious).

We loved absolutely everything about our stay: starting from the locations and the stunning views from the rooms, and to the kindness of the hosts who did everything to make our stay unforgettable and helped us out when we had issues with our payment accounts

Everything was perfect

the location is absolutely amazing, hidden in nature and away from the massive tourism. the team also made the stay very relaxing - its a gem

Incredibly kind and caring hosts, wonderful breakfast and afternoon tea, beautiful light and and well-decorated room, quiet location surrounded by the green.

-Good wifi -Amazing meals (seriously, the dinners were gourmet!) -Able to help with activities through WeChat and Google translate

-nothing; we loved it all!!!

Excellent breakfast, incredibly helpful staff, a very personal feel.

The swimming pool was not in use.

Located in a small and remote village, this experience is more of a home stay with friends, than a swanky hotel. This was perfect for us while looking for comfort and peace. The guesthouse is clean, well-decorated, and warm. The food was a highlight, with the hostess being well-versed in both western and Chinese cooking, and even bringing us up afternoon tea with her homemade cakes every day. The hosts were happy to help us arrange cars and bikes for us to get around conveniently, and gave us an introduction to the area and the best places to go.

Amazing views and friendly staff! They had a cake waiting for me when I arrived.

Nothing, everything was great!
