Sanya Beach Hotels

Our stay at Banyan Tree Sanya far exceeded expectations! The entire resort consists of private villas, offering exceptional privacy. The tropical garden environment is quiet and pleasant, and the private pool courtyard creates a wonderful ambiance. The secluded beach is uncrowded and very comfortable. A special thanks to our butler, **Xiao Sun**, for his meticulous and attentive service. He was incredibly responsive, proactively reaching out before our arrival to address our needs. During our stay, he handled all matters, big or small, promptly and effectively. Messages were practically answered instantly, and he thoughtfully arranged everything, making our trip completely hassle-free. The hotel breakfast was high-quality, and the overall service standard was excellent. It's truly a top choice for a relaxing getaway. We'll definitely choose Banyan Tree again on our next visit to Sanya, and we highly recommend requesting Butler Xiao Sun!

The resort experience at InterContinental Sanya is absolutely amazing! The grounds are surrounded by coconut groves, the private beach is clean and tranquil, and the ocean view rooms offer unobstructed vistas. Waking up to watch the sunrise and enjoying the sea breeze in the evening is simply blissful. The butler service is attentive and thoughtful, with Lucas responding promptly to all our requests. The breakfast selection is abundant, and the family-friendly facilities are excellent. It's the perfect choice for a relaxing getaway, and we'll definitely stay here again on our next trip to Sanya.

This was my first time staying at Atlantis Sanya, and the main reason for our visit was to celebrate my husband's birthday. I was drawn to the Atlantis' activities and facilities while searching for hotels in Sanya on Trip.com. Since I was busy with work, I didn't have much time to plan the itinerary. Luckily, after booking the hotel, I contacted them via email, and they kindly agreed to arrange a birthday cake to surprise my husband on his special day. Atlantis also offers a very thoughtful service. I had pre-purchased tickets for the beluga underwater activity and the dolphin interaction program separately through their WeChat mini-program. Soon after, I received a call from an Atlantis staff member informing me that there was a package deal that included both activities at a significantly lower price. In the end, they helped me cancel my previous orders and process a refund so I could repurchase the package. I wholeheartedly recommend the beluga underwater activity. Andy and Tina, the star belugas, are gentle and a little playful. They interacted with us for a full 30 minutes. Opportunities to touch belugas are rare in a lifetime, and being able to kiss them too made the ticket price absolutely worth it! The Ossiano underwater restaurant is also worth a try! As it was my husband's birthday dinner, we opted for a specific set menu. We enjoyed our meal right next to the large fish tank, watching the fish swim by. The price of their set menu is comparable to 'Omakase' in Hong Kong. If you have any dietary restrictions, they are happy to accommodate changes to the ingredients. Ossiano's ambiance, service, food quality, and portion sizes were all excellent. Both of us found every dish delicious, and at the end, the waiter thoughtfully brought us hot tea to help us digest. Finally, I'd like to extend a special thank you to Ariel, our dedicated Atlantis hotel staff member. Throughout our 4-day, 3-night stay, she thoughtfully messaged us to see if we had any special needs. When she learned it was for my husband's birthday, she specifically arranged balloons and decorations, and even sent fruit and a birthday cake. These past few days, she was like a little assistant, quietly taking care of everything behind the scenes for me. She also helped me communicate with the restaurant and answered all my questions. I really appreciate all her help these past few days. 💕 If you're planning a trip to Sanya, Atlantis is truly an excellent choice. The price might not be cheap, but the room rate includes daily unlimited access to the aquarium and one daily entry to Aquaventure Waterpark per person. The cost of these tickets alone makes it a great value, whether you're a couple or a family with children!

I've been to Sanya several times before, staying at places like St. Regis, Marriott, and MGM. This time, I chose the Crowne Plaza Sanya Bay, and it was a delightful surprise. 1. **Accommodation**: During check-in, the front desk upgraded our room to one with a king bed and two single beds, which was perfect. When traveling with kids, you really don't want to squeeze onto one bed; relaxation is key. On the first day, the room was so big that I had to shout to find people, haha! There was a slight musty smell when we first arrived (I'm quite sensitive to smells), but the housekeeper, Mei Qi, promptly addressed it, providing a dehumidifier. Within a few hours, the smell was completely gone. Another family in our group was initially assigned a room quite far away, and the housekeeper proactively helped them move to the room next door the very next day, which was very thoughtful! 2. **Transportation**: The hotel is conveniently located close to Nanshan Temple, Phoenix Airport, and the high-speed train station, making getting around easy. They offered complimentary airport pickup and drop-off, and they sent a huge bus just for us, which was quite a grand gesture! There are also free shuttle buses to Boundary Island and the duty-free shop, which is very convenient. 3. **Activities**: The hotel boasts three swimming pools. The main pool is massive, easily 50 meters long. The secondary pool is built around the rooms, likely catering to pool-access rooms. This secondary pool is large enough for paddleboarding. There are also lounge chairs and lifeguards by the beach, offering a strong sense of security! 4. **Ambiance**: In the evenings, my family enjoyed sitting on the huge balcony, soaking in the 'essence of heaven and earth,' and we didn't even want to go back to our rooms to sleep until late at night! 5. **Service**: The butler service was superb. While the location isn't as advantageous as Yalong Bay, the service is absolutely top-notch!

This was an excellent stay for a family trip, offering great food, drinks, and activities. Our room faced the sea, allowing us to enjoy the refreshing sea breeze. The diverse buffet breakfast had at least 30 different food options to satisfy various palates. There were plenty of activities, and the swimming pool was particularly clean and clear – my child and I could easily spend a whole day there. The staff (both male and female) provided incredibly thoughtful and attentive service. The price was reasonable, and I'll definitely choose Sheraton again next time.

This hotel really excels in many aspects: convenient transportation, direct beach access, a wide array of facilities, and delicious breakfast. While you might find individual hotels that beat it in one specific area, its overall score makes it a fantastic choice. Our visit coincided with some bad weather, with rain every morning. However, the hotel offered plenty of activities. We enjoyed the gym, took some fun travel photos, and when the rain eased, we'd head to the pool. When the weather cleared up in the afternoon, we'd go for a swim in the sea. In fact, there were so many active options that I even lost a little weight during our stay! Dining at the nearby seafood market in the evenings was also very convenient. The hotel's service was excellent as well. Rose, who I connected with on WeChat, was incredibly helpful throughout our stay, assisting me with various issues. This made for a very comfortable experience.

I've been to Sanya many times, but this was my first time staying at the Mangrove Tree Resort, and it was a very disappointing experience. People online often mention it's old, and it definitely is, but that's not the main issue. After all, I stayed next door a few years ago, and it was old then too, but the experience was great. The key really lies in the facilities and service. Let me first mention two or three good points: first, the room hygiene was good, the cleaning lady was very enthusiastic and responsible; and the breakfast selection was rich and tasty. Now for the long list of complaints: Facilities: The old and small room is forgivable, as it's an entry-level room in an older hotel, but the facilities are truly not user-friendly. 1. There's very little counter space to place things in the room – just one desk and a TV stand. This isn't enough for a family traveling with children. 2. The shower in the bathroom is inside a large bathtub. This design is so outdated! Every day, I had to climb over a bathtub that was over a meter high to shower. If you have elderly family members, definitely do not stay here; there's a risk of falling. 3. There's also a shower area on the balcony. I don't know what kind of ”wild fun” this is meant to provide. Firstly, if you're short, it's impossible to shower while enjoying the view, and people inside the room have a clear view, making it unsuitable for families with children. Furthermore, this shower area has no place to hang towels or clothes, or to put toiletries, needlessly taking up a third of the already small balcony. 4. The clothes rack on the balcony is fixed, so you can't hang long clothes or trousers, only small items, and it clashes with the nearby table and chairs. 5. The toilet is cramped, a three-way split is impossible. The toilet paper holder isn't on the side but to the back right, directly above the trash can, so you need a special technique to tear paper, otherwise it falls into the bin. All the designs are incredibly bizarre; I don't see how this relates to being a ”family-friendly” hotel. Service: I can't even give a score. I specifically requested on Ctrip not to have a corner room, and the room we got was in the furthest wing, the second to last room. So, this doesn't count as a corner room?? Upon check-in, we noticed water dripping from the ceiling's air conditioner condenser right next to my suitcase. We called for maintenance, and they said it was because we had the balcony door open while the AC was on. The implication was that it was our fault for improper use. So, I guess no other guests ever open the balcony door while the AC is on, right? The butler didn't proactively offer any solutions, and we didn't want to push for a room change or upgrade, so we just made do. Then, on our last day, while having breakfast in the hotel's semi-outdoor restaurant, halfway through our meal, water started dripping from the air conditioner condenser above our table, landing in our plates, forcing us to move tables. So, by the hotel's previous logic, the restaurant shouldn't even have AC on, since it's semi-outdoor, right? Shouldn't the hotel compensate me for their own ”usage problem”? It's ridiculous. We encountered many absurd things at this hotel, including but not limited to: although there were staff leading guests to tables at breakfast, on the first morning, they led us incorrectly three times, taking us in different directions only for others to say there were no empty seats in that area. I don't know how they communicate. Later, we saw other guests finishing their meals outside and wanted to sit there, but the usher seemed oblivious, as if sealed in place. We also witnessed a long tile falling off the fruit buffet counter, hitting a guest's foot, and a server accidentally spilling an entire tray of freshly made fried rice, with grains scattered around a focused guest who was unaware and getting food... The public areas are just average for a hotel in Yalong Bay, nothing special. With sunlight, it's not ugly, but it's not particularly beautiful either. The only places worth photographing are the pool, lawn, and coconut trees in front of the lobby. No wonder there are no other pictures in the reviews; I could only photograph this area myself. The children's pool is small, and the standard pool is even smaller, undeserving of the word ”standard.” Having stayed in so many hotels, this one is truly hard to review.

Traveling with kids can be a hassle, but this hotel made our entire trip stress-free. Special thanks to Manager Shen from the front office. Upon arrival, he proactively helped us with our luggage and immediately provided children's amenities when he saw our little one. The check-in process was efficient, and he thoughtfully upgraded us to a family room. When my child accidentally spilled juice, Manager Shen's first concern was to reassure us that ”the child is fine,” and he swiftly handled the situation. His warmth and patience throughout made a deep impression on us. The room facilities were complete, and the breakfast was incredibly rich. The hardware is great, but the service is even more heartwarming. The professionalism and warmth of the hotel's service made our family trip start off perfectly. I've already recommended it to friends and will definitely be back!

The Yalong Bay Seaview International Resort Hotel boasts an excellent location, right on the beach. The room amenities and pool environment are generally satisfactory, and it's convenient to get to various attractions by taxi. The biggest drawback is the restaurant. While the staff are friendly, there's a clear gap in overall management, operational procedures, and brand standards compared to chain hotels. The food quality is mediocre, and replenishment and table clearing are slow. The processes aren't standardized, and for the same price point, the dining experience falls significantly short of chain resorts. The rooms, beach, and public areas would get a good score. If you don't plan to dine at the hotel and are just looking for a place to stay overnight, it's a viable option. However, if hotel breakfast and restaurant dining experience are important to you, I'd recommend considering other choices carefully.

Sanya Haitang Bay Wanda Realm was an absolute gem! The location is incredible, right next to the duty-free shop. After a shopping spree, it was just a few steps back to the hotel, making getting around incredibly convenient. The hotel grounds are massive, with coconut groves and ocean views everywhere you look – every photo is Instagram-worthy. Ella provided such thoughtful service, always there for any little thing we needed, taking care of everything down to the last detail. All I had to do was eat, drink, play, and relax [heart emoji]. I didn't have to worry about a thing, the experience was top-notch. I'll definitely be staying here again next time I'm in Sanya! [rose emoji]
