The hotel is quite arranged - photos from the sites about the hotel - correspond. It is located quite far from the city of Sanya itself (it takes 40 minutes to get to the center on a regular bus), however, there were no problems getting there - there are several buses running along the road between the beach and the hotel, we used No. 25 and No. 26. Directions to the center (to the final ) costs 3 yuan per person. The bus runs until late (at the stops it is written that they go until 17-30, we returned on it at 19 and 21 hours), later, however, we didn’t go. There is also a road behind the hotel - bus number 6 runs there, also going to the center. The hotel itself is located in a quiet place - after 20 hours there are practically no cars, and even during the day - quite a bit - you can go to the beach without any problems. The hotel consists of three three-storey buildings. We lived in the latter - the view from the window was on the building in front - so at night we had to close the curtains, but it was quiet, the birds were chirping (we had a swallow's nest on the balcony), and the sound of airplanes was really audible - but it did not interfere with sleep, all the more so - the windows are always closed (so that no living creatures crawl). By the way, about living creatures - having read reviews before the trip - I was ready to meet lizards, rats, the size of a cat, cockroaches and other reptiles. The result - my husband and I walked five blocks in Sanya, walked along our Sanya Bay both during the day and in the evening - I didn’t meet a single rat (fortunately), I saw a small lizard on the balcony, but they crawl only in the evening into the light, all the rest of the evil spirits never met. In the hotel, each room has a balcony - you can even say - a wide terrace, in the evenings we drank coconut milk and beer there. In the room we had a double bed, a plasma TV (from Russian channels - only RTR), a cable for free Internet (it was installed immediately, without additional settings), although the Chinese block Odnoklassniki, My World, and Yu-tube, everything else opens , the speed is even nothing - 3 megabits / sec. But my husband found workarounds - he went to the necessary sites through a proxy server (so the photos were leaked to classmates every day : -)))). There is also a refrigerator in the room (empty - no mini bar), and a portable safe (just standing in the closet). we pah-pah, there were no problems with theft, but ours from the group - in another building, stole $ 400 during cleaning (though not from the safe, but in things). But the fact that the cleaners rummage through our clothes somehow didn’t please me : -(((, although they didn’t seem to rummage through mine, I didn’t notice. In the room, from food - only a pack of Doshirak noodles, and two bottles of paid water. (Everything is more expensive than in the store - two to three times). From the free - two bottles of 150 ml of drinking water, 4 tea bags and a kettle. True, our cleaners on the second day began to forget to put water on us - we come from an excursion in the evening - we went to find out why They understand almost nothing in Russian, in my opinion, they didn’t see the British at all, so communication is only on the fingers. Somehow they explained that we wanted free water and tea - they brought it. Okay, we think we should thank you - they gave us a small chocolate bar. The next day the story repeated itself - it became a little annoying - let's go again. Dali !! ! We decided not to feed chocolate anymore - we didn’t deserve. But the soap and rind was replenished every day, however, there is no hair conditioner (I suffered a lot - my hair was like straw from Chinese water, I would have known - I took it from home) and some kind of toothpaste - none, ours is still better. By the way, there is a hair dryer. Now about the food - breakfast from 7 to 9-30, the food is pretty monotonous. Every day - rice porridge, noodles with soy sauce, boiled eggs, boiled corn, and a couple more rice dishes. Two or three more dishes changed every other day - either soy sausages or seaweed. Always fruit and pastries. In general, they never left hungry, though they always came for breakfast by 8-30, and it often happened that half of the dishes were over - but after 15-20 minutes everything was served, so there are no complaints about breakfast. But dinner - where you can find it. It is possible here in the hotel - the price tag for meals on average is from 30 to 48 yuan. A five-minute walk away is the Laguna restaurant (they ate there almost every day - the price tag is a little cheaper), if you drive towards the center for about 10 minutes (we walked on foot) - there will be a restaurant Traktir (the price tag is even more expensive by 10-15 yuan), but there are Russians dishes. And along the coast, barbecues open from 19:00, but for some reason it’s even more expensive there. We went into one - a bunch of Chinese are sitting, we think, so you can eat. There is a buffet, but the price tag is 157 yuan per person, we decided not to show off. Will return to the hotel - the pool at the hotel is cleaned every day. The beach is its own, however, it is not fenced, so everyone rests on it. I think there are 10 umbrellas on the beach, sun loungers are free, but they were almost always occupied. We considered it stupid to run to take sun loungers from 6 in the morning, so we did not disdain to sunbathe on towels. By the way, the sea in Sanya Bay is quite clean, we liked it. And the number of vacationers is not much, mostly all of their own (well, 10-15 people visiting Chinese). when we went to the city and saw the city beaches - they went nuts, there was nowhere for an apple to fall. But the cleanliness on the beach leaves much to be desired - the Chinese really do not understand - what are trash cans and what are they for? The first few days the beach was still nothing, and then it was a nightmare - packages full of bits, bottles (well, at least plastic ones), cups of yogurt, in short - brrrr, are lying around the sunbeds. lying on a sunbed - and around the mountain of household waste. And the sun loungers after three days were all broken (although by the end of our holiday they were repaired) and the beach was cleaned from time to time, but it got dirty faster. In general, there are many emotions. In general, I liked the rest. To broaden my horizons, I think it's worth going to Sanya. Maybe in five years I will want to go back there - to see what has changed. In the meantime, other countries must also be conquered.
