📝 Pre-Booking Preparation Checklist · Four Key Elements to Help You Choose the Right Room Type
Many people struggle with "which one to choose" when booking a homestay. In fact, as long as you clarify the four core elements, the choice becomes very simple.
👥 Guest Count Element
Determining the exact number of guests is the first step. The entire 4-7 room villas at Cuixi Villa have different maximum capacities:
- 4 Rooms: Suitable for 8-10 people (family gatherings / small team building)
- 5 Rooms: Suitable for 10-12 people (medium gatherings / team building)
- 6 Rooms: Suitable for 12-15 people (department team building / large families)
- 7 Rooms: Suitable for 15-20 people (large team building / class reunions)
💡 Principle: Better large than small. If there are more people, you can squeeze in; if fewer, you'll have more space.
🎉 Occasion Element
Different vacation scenarios have different requirements for facilities; it is important to be clear about "what you want to do":
- Team building and gatherings:Requires KTV, meeting rooms, BBQ
- Family vacation:Requires kitchen, swimming pool, senior-friendly facilities
- Birthday party:Requires decorated space, sound system, KTV
- Wellness vacation:Requires private geothermal spring, quiet environment, wellness meals
- Family trip with children:Requires swimming pool, children's facilities, safety
💰 Budget factors
Per capita budget determines room type and service options:
- Per capita ¥300-500: 4-5 bedrooms on weekdays, basic package
- Per capita ¥500-700: 6-7 bedrooms on weekdays / 5 bedrooms on weekends
- Per capita ¥700-1000: 7 bedrooms on weekends / holidays
- Per capita ¥1000+: high-end customization on holidays + full facilities
💡 The more people, the cheaper per capita—the core advantage of the entire villa
📅 Time factors
Check-in time directly affects price and availability:
- Sunday-Thursday:Weekday rates, cheapest, plenty of availability
- Friday-Saturday:Weekend rates, 10-20% higher than weekday rates
- Public holidays:Holiday rates, most expensive, advance booking required
- Special dates:New Year's Eve/Valentine's Day/Qixi Festival and other premium pricing
💡 Book 2-4 weeks in advance for maximum selection

💴 How to Read Prices · Weekday/Weekend/Holiday Differences
Villa rental prices are not fixed and will fluctuate based on the check-in date. Understanding the pricing rules can help you book your desired villa at the most cost-effective price.
Price Tier Description
| Price Type | Applicable Dates | Price Level | Advance Booking Recommended |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weekday price | Sunday - Thursday (non-holidays) | Base price, best value | 3-7 days in advance |
| Weekend price | Friday - Saturday (non-holidays) | 10%-25% higher than weekday price | 1-2 weeks in advance |
| Holiday price | Statutory holidays (Spring Festival / National Day / May Day / Mid-Autumn Festival, etc.) | 30%-50% higher than weekday price | 1-2 months in advance |
💡 Per capita calculation:Total villa price ÷ Number of guests = Per capita price. For example, a 7-bedroom villa on a weekday is ¥8,180, accommodating 16 people, the per capita price is only ¥511 yuan, which is much more cost-effective than staying in a hotel, and you exclusively enjoy all the facilities of the entire villa.

⚠️ 8 Tips to Avoid Booking Pitfalls · Hard-learned Lessons from Experience
We have compiled the 8 most common pitfalls in Changtai homestay bookings to help you avoid 99% of booking traps.
❌ Pitfall 1: Confusing the Deposit with the Security Deposit
The deposit is a good-faith payment to confirm the booking and is non-refundable if you don't book; the security deposit is a guarantee for the stay and will be refunded upon check-out if there is no damage. Some unscrupulous merchants may call the deposit a security deposit and refuse to refund it later. Make sure to ask clearly and get it in writing.
❌ Pitfall 2: Hidden Fees
The price seems cheap, but upon arrival, you find that air conditioning fees, cleaning fees, KTV fees, barbecue tool fees, etc., are all charged separately. Before booking, make sure to ask clearly, "What is included and what requires extra charges?" It's best to get written confirmation.
❌ Pitfall 3: Severe discrepancy between the actual property and photos
The photos are carefully retouched in an influencer style, only to discover on-site that they are "photo scams". Solution: Read negative reviews, check the latest reviews, and ask the butler to send real-time videos or photos taken that day. All photos at Cuixi Villa are actual shots; video room tours are welcome.
❌ Pitfall 4: Room type switched
You booked Villa A, a large villa, but were assigned to Villa B, a smaller building upon arrival. Always confirm the exact villa when booking, ideally with a room number or villa name. Each villa at Cuixi Villa has a unique name, which will be clearly confirmed after booking.
❌ Pitfall 5: Scammed by private transfers
"Add WeChat for a discount on transfers" — this is the most common scam. Private transfers without third-party guarantees mean the recipient can block you and vanish with your money once paid. Always pay through official channels!
❌ Pitfall 6: Prices double on holidays
The regular price you see is ¥3000, but when you arrive on a holiday, you are charged ¥6000, which they call the "holiday rate". When booking, always confirm the exact price for your check-in date, and don't just look at the "starting price". All prices at Cuixi are open and transparent, with the same rates on the official website and official WeChat account.
❌ Pitfall 7: Cleaning fees charged separately
Some homestay room rates look cheap, but they charge hundreds of yuan in cleaning fees upon checkout. The room rate at Cuixi Villa includes the cleaning fee, with no additional charges. Be sure to ask clearly before booking, "Is the cleaning fee included?"
❌ Pitfall 8: High late checkout fees
Normal check-in time is after 14:00 on the day of arrival, and checkout is before 12:00 the next day. Some homestays charge half of the full-day room rate for being just 1 hour late, which is highly uneconomical. If you need a late checkout, discuss it with the butler in advance; in many cases, it can be negotiated.
