The hotel is located in Dadonghai Bay, Sanya. Located on the first coastline. The location is very good, we couldn't find better there. Near the food street, many cafes, shops, there is constant movement and fuss around, there is always something to do. The hotel has a beautiful green area, thanks to which you feel like you are on your own small island in the middle of the stone jungle.
Number. We arrived at the hotel at about 23:00, settled us quickly, gave us a room with a balcony 307 (C). The room is large, bright and clean. He arranged for us, there are no special frills there. The room had: a kettle, dishes (cups, teaspoons, glasses), a refrigerator, a hair dryer, bath accessories, bathrobes, slippers. Air conditioning worked well, no issues at all. Cleaning in the rooms is good, they left money and valuables in the room, everything is safe and sound. The staff is smiling and polite.
Meals: breakfast + obligatory one dinner for $50 for two.
Breakfast buffet, we were very full, the food is good. Nobody left hungry. The food is more like European. Dinner is worth the money, there was a buffet of a variety of seafood. We ate too many shrimp, lobsters, oysters, various snails, etc. It was very tasty! : )
Beach and sea: walk 2 minutes. There are plenty of sun loungers on the beach from the hotel. We came to the beach at different times in the morning and after lunch, we always found free sun loungers for two. Beautiful beach, soft sand and clear warm sea. Maybe we were lucky, but almost the entire rest we had calm and clear water. There are no sand fleas on Dadonghai Beach. In general, there are no insects anywhere, everything is poisonous.
Tours. All vacationers are offered a free sightseeing tour of Sanya. This is not a bad option in order to determine the locations that you want to visit in the city.
But for us it was a tedious excursion, as we were taken to a shark farm, a snake farm, a silk factory, which in reality turn out to be commercial places where they sell you a placebo for all diseases for crazy money and our people, alas, take them. As usual, hotel guides offer various excursions at an inflated cost and frighten vacationers with the fact that they themselves go far or it’s not realistic without guides. We traveled by ourselves and were satisfied. Near the hotel there is a main street with a bus stop, from which buses leave for all known destinations.
We went to Tree Houses, looked at the pedestrian street, the drunken bridge, went up to the observation platform in the park near the tree houses, were in the Deer Turned His Head Park and visited the Nanshan Buddhism Center.
But I advise, preparing for such trips while still at home, print out all the important information, bus schedules and their routes, as you will encounter problems with the Internet.
All youtube bloggers tell us that the Internet is working and everything is OK. Guys, why carry such nonsense! It really does not work and did not work not only for us, but also for everyone we asked. VPN works correctly for one day, then a complete mess. The Chinese are blocking it. But Skype and Wechat work well. Download the latter at home for yourself and your family, with whom you plan to communicate, the connection is excellent and without problems.
Infrastructure near the hotel. Between the hotel and the beach across the bay there is a promenade with many cafes. Great place for evening walks. From the side of the main entrance of the hotel there are streets with various chifankas and shops, a choice of food for every taste and budget. We chose Lina's chifanka, there is very tasty food and you can take food to go.
Not far from the hotel is the well-known Zima-Leto shopping center and evening food courts there, a little further from the Pineapple shopping center, everything is within walking distance.
Nuances you need to know. We flew from UIA airlines. In Ukraine, online check-in is done 24 hours before departure and a boarding list is printed, since this service is paid at the airport ($ 15 per person). In Sanya, there is no online registration for the return trip, you can not waste your time on this. Our flight back was at 00:20 at night, so the hotel, when buying a tour, offers a late check-out with an additional surcharge. We used this service and are very happy about it. We didn't have to check out from the room at 12 and it's not clear where to wander until departure at 21:00. We had a great day and quietly gathered in the evening.
At customs at the airport, luggage is examined very carefully, especially for the presence of prohibited fruits and other prohibited items. Forbidden fruits: Durian, Jack fruit, watermelon, melon, coconut.
Prohibited items: lighters, matches (they will be taken from you), Powerbank in the luggage bag (you need to take it in your hand luggage), sea water, carals, sand. You can safely transport all other fruits, they will be sealed in a box upon purchase, the main thing is to control the weight. You can take a box of fruit as hand luggage with a weight limit of 5+7 kg. Many people buy Chinese straw hats, they are large in size, but they are not forbidden to be taken on board. In general, you can bring a lot, the main thing is to follow the rules.
There is no Duty Free at Sanya Airport, this is the first time we have seen this. At the airport, after passing through customs control, you will meet a vending machine with drinks, a bottle of iced tea is 5 yuan, so if you have yuan left, we recommend black tea : ) it helps a lot in a long flight.
It was a great vacation with a lot of impressions, positive emotions. Hainan is a magnificent tropical island that will remain in my heart forever.
