Sanya! A Budget-Friendly Hotel Worth Revisiting!! So Comfortable to Stay In!!

Experience the ultimate vacation vibe at the JW Marriott Sanya Dadonghai Bay with a suite stay and executive lounge access 🌴

📍 **Location**: The Perfect Balance Between City and Nature

Located in the Half Moon Bay area, adjacent to Dadonghai Beach, just a 10-minute drive from Luhuitou Park and 30-minute delivery time for city takeout, this hotel is a tranquil vacation hub amidst the hustle and bustle. Though the coastline features rocky landscapes, it’s perfect for evening seaside strolls, with the coastal walkway radiating romance.

🧹 **Soundproofing/Hygiene**: Island-Quality Details

Meticulous room cleaning: Welcome fruits are elegantly arranged, bathrobes are replaced daily, no water residue in the bathroom, and central air filters are dust-free (though ceilings are slightly low, cleanliness compensates for space). Post-turn-down service leaves bedding crisp, and the smart toilet cover is responsive (non-smart but impeccably clean). Quality control at this older hotel remains impeccable.

🏘️ **Room Type/Layout**: Clever Design of the Mountain & Ocean Suite

Stayed in the **Mountain & Ocean Suite** (only one per floor on the east wing), featuring a 1.8m bed facing the sea—perfect for watching the tides from bed. The separate living room opens to a spacious terrace with rattan chairs for breezy evenings. Compared to the **Ocean View Suite** on the west wing (with a more stunning 270° view), the east wing’s blue-toned, island-style decor is cozier, ideal for guests who prefer a softer ambiance.
✅ **Highlights**: Terrace blinds ensure privacy (minimal gaps, adjustable for discretion), and the safe requires identity verification for added security.

🛌 **Amenities/Facilities**: Heartwarming Touches at an Older Hotel

- **Executive Lounge**:
- Open 12:30–21:30 with all-day soft drinks and snacks. Afternoon tea (sandwiches + fruit) and dinner (6 hot dishes + salad) are simple but complemented by free-flowing drinks (self-serve wine and cocktails, with staff refilling glasses).
- Bonus: 30-minute neck/shoulder spa per room—professional therapists left our elders raving about relaxation.
- **Facilities**: Quiet pool (accessible in bathrobes), shared with the neighboring Autograph Collection. Breakfast buffet highlights Hainan specialties (fermented rice noodle soup, Hou’an noodles, unlimited *qingbuliang* dessert, and fresh juices).

💰 **Cost**: From ¥680/night for base rooms, ¥1200–1500/night for ocean-view suites.

A steal for JW Marriott’s Sanya lineup—base rooms often upgraded to suites, with executive lounge covering meals. Ideal for budget-conscious families seeking luxury.

💗 **Tips**:
- **Room Pick**: West wing for epic views (270° ocean), east wing for cozy vibes.
- **Lounge Hack**: Dine off-peak (17:30–19:00) for fresher dishes; ask staff for hidden fridge drinks.
- **Local Fun**: Evening tide-pooling (crabs hide in rocks), seafood takeout under the stars—pure island magic.

**Verdict**:

JW Marriott Sanya Dadonghai Bay wins with **"value-for-money service + urban convenience."** Though slightly dated, its thoughtful touches (quick room changes, item security) and dining (breakfast *qingbuliang*, spa treats) shine. Perfect for families or couples who want to **"relax by the sea"**—suite stays and lounge lounging? *This* is how you Sanya.
