Yalong Bay, Sanya 🌴☀️

For first-time visitors to Sanya, I recommend Yalong Bay. The coastline is long and the beach is clean. If you have enough time, it's also easy to get to the surrounding bays. We went to the Atlantis Aquarium in Haitang Bay one day and found the area to be more lively. For a second visit, you can stay in Haitang Bay with your eyes closed.
The bay area was developed earlier, so most of the hotels are relatively old. They all have some problems. It's hard to recommend one.
We went to Sanya this time with the intention of relaxing, without too many plans. Our friends also brought a one-year-old child, so we didn't want to travel around too much. We decided on Hilton two days before departure. The balcony faces the pool area, offering a great view of the garden and pool area. We were deeply attracted!
Room selection tips
Hilton has a total of 8 buildings. Facing the lobby, buildings 1-4 are on the right, and buildings 5-8 are on the left. If you don't want to walk too much, choose building 1 or 5. Buildings 4 and 8 face the sea (but try to avoid the third floor, as there may be fences blocking the view). All buildings have access to the beach on the first floor through the garden.
Breakfast is on the first floor of the lobby, and the terrace has a better view.
Marriott is on the left of the hotel, and Ritz-Carlton is on the right. The beach is connected. Nearby dining options include Qiongzhou Zao Po Cu, Qing Bu Liang (a must-try), and Sanjiang Seafood Restaurant.
Transportation tips: There is a high-speed train between Yalong Bay and Phoenix Airport, but there are few options. The airport bus to Yalong Bay Line 1 costs CNY 25. For family trips, I recommend taking a taxi directly from the airport, which costs more than CNY 50.
Hilton also has a shuttle bus to the CDF Duty Free Mall. The schedule is fixed, and you must book one day in advance.
