Great Stay

Great stay over 5 nights. Kids loved the pool and hot tub. Room and amenities were just what we needed. Check in had a slight bump when the hotel had a differing record as compared to what we booked on Hotels.com. Was resolved pretty quickly though. Also, after day 2, the hotel provided one child’s breakfast for free instead of making us pay for that fifth person (with the other four of us free) - since we were staying for 5 nights.

OK for stay and going around

Location is average in Sanya Bay. Close to the airport and taxi fare is not high. Quite a distance to city centre but bus routes are convenient and cheap. Watch out for bus services as some routes close early at around 7pm and some routes do not go beyond to hotel's area after 4pm. Hotel is a bit old but still clean and comfortable. Pool is good. The beach outside is beyond our expectation. It was small and no water activities suitable. Food provided by the hotel is average but price is reasonable. Hotel's website mentioned about Spa and massage services but there were none! Hotel staff told the Spa centre was closed last year! Very disappointed.

A nice stay

Hotel locates at quiet area with a nice beach. Can see sun rise and sun set on the beach. There is bus stops right outside the hotel. Buses go to the downtown or some travel spots. Hotel have a good swimming pool and have some quiet small areas which provide adults having relaxing rest. Good buffet breakfast. The hotpot and seafood buffet dinner is fair with not so fresh seafood.

Good for relaxing and beach access

The hotel is a good place to relax by the pool and go to the beach. It is not in the heart of the action and restaurants are limited. It is about, because of traffic, 20-30 minutes by taxi to the action. So, if you are looking to be in the busy activities stay closer to Phoenix Island or Yalong Beach. But, If you are looking to relax in a quiet atmosphere with a nice pool then this hotel is great.

Nice installations, awful service

1. Breakfast could be largely improved by serving some things warm instead of cold as well as replacing things that run out. Only Roy helped us get more coffee or tried to accommodate basic requests. 2. First floor coffee. It's never open on time (9.30) and it never has any of the items on the menu available, which are just some of the items available for breakfast downstairs. Even when there's a sign that says this opens at 9.30, none of the food is available until after 11 am and nobody can explain why or when it will open. 3. Restaurant (Southern Hill). Some waitresses would tell us something isn't available and others would tell us the opposite. They cannot answer anything about how many pieces come in one serving, they don't check for water refills and they bring dishes/dessert without the necessary utensils (example: banana split with no spoons). 4. Wifi doesn't work anywhere but inside the rooms, it works in the lobby and outside 15% of the time with very weak signal. 5. Receptionists don't pick up the phone often and when they do, they can connect you with up to three different people to attempt to understand the most basic English which makes you end up speaking Mandarin for their convenience. Good luck if you aren't fuent. 6. There are kids peeing inside the pool (older than 8-10 years old) very visibly (standing on the stairs) as well as adults hawking from inside the pool to the pool deck.

Perfect place to relax

I arrived about 2 hours before normal check-in time. The reception was busy with people checking out, but when it came to my turn they checked me in early without any problem. The swimming pools are huge and I especially like the two smaller swimming pools slightly above the big one: nice little havens of tranquility. And if they're too busy, just cross the street to get to the beach! My only issue would be the food which wasn't great, but as far as I've seen it's the same all around China. All in all, it was the perfect place to relax for a few days.

Great for young kids

I'm a westerner living on the mainland and took my children here while my husband had to work. We had a great time. The pool is brilliant for kids. There are large shallow areas that are very safe. We didn't leave the pool. The room was clean, yes a little tired but comfortable. The breakfasts were good. The downsides: the corridors smelt a bit damp and the western food choices were poor (though on our last day they were revealing a new menu) , you have to hire rubber rings etc. but that really is it. I read some reviews which were quite rude about Chinese people staying at the hotel. Our experience was very positive. Nice, friendly families having a fun break with their kids. Overall a very good choice for the price.

Great holiday location

My husband and I spent six days at this Resort after spending three days in Hong Kong. It was so lovely to relaxafter quite a hectic three days. Only draw back on arrival late evening was the taxi drivers at the international airport couldn,t communicate in English and we are not Chinese literate. It would be more beneficial also for the hotel is have their name, in Chinese as well, on all their future booking confirmations. Other than that, we have absolutely no complaints. The staff couldn't be friendlier. The bus trip to Sanya town is frequent right outside the hotel. The beach is superb and the pool is huge with an excellent wading pool for the youngsters. My recommendation for a family stay as well.

HAINAN AND SAYNA. ..CHINA'S HAWAII !!!

HOLIDAY INN SANYA IS FIVE STAR HOTEL. however, it is so large it is hard to leave without getting a TAXI. (admittedly im not a spring chicken athletically any more!) Not a place to pot next door to get a burger for sure...as there are no business within easy walking distance... and the in~house restaurants.. are a little price for my way of travel !! Staff was lovely and bent over backwards to accommodate any request!!! This was my last Stop on a two week vacation in china..so I could have been a little drained on enthusiasm !! Even though the HOTEL has huge pool complex. the Beach is not very far at all with miles of open sandy BEACH TO ENJOY!
