It's not that Sanya isn't worth it, but Haikou offers better value for money

In the hot summer, where can we go to escape the heat? I chose a hotel with gardens and coastline for my vacation.
Haikou State Guesthouse (soon to be opened as Fairmont Haikou) is located on the west coast of Haikou. It has always had a very good reputation and the service makes you feel at home. The hotel is classically artistic and elegant, with a huge tropical garden, a large outdoor swimming pool, natural hot springs, long beaches and coastline. The ecology is really good. I even saw fireflies at night. It was the first time I saw so many "bulk" natural fireflies in nature. I was so surprised.
The Yueyaxuan restaurant on the first floor is also good. You can try the Huaiyang cuisine here.
By the way, the hotel is very close to the world's largest single duty-free shop - China Duty Free (Haikou) International Duty Free City. There are shuttle buses to and from the hotel, and guests can get coupons~
