😍 For those who love sunshine, nature, forests, and relaxing beach vacations, here's another great destination 👉 Hainan Island—Sanya—Yalong Bay 👈
✈️ Direct flight from Hong Kong to Sanya takes only about 1 hour and 30 minutes. If you take an early flight, you can arrive at the hotel by noon!
🚖 From Sanya Phoenix International Airport to Yalong Bay, it’s about a 40-minute drive. Using Gaode for ride-hailing is super convenient!
🏘️ This time, I chose "Sanya Yalong Bay Shixishu Jianguo Resort Hotel."
🔴 Key highlight: A super cost-effective hotel, priced at just HK$400+ per night for two people, including a delicious buffet breakfast.
🟢 The hotel is very spacious, with electric carts available to shuttle guests between the lobby and rooms. Located right next to "Yalong Bay Tropical Paradise Forest Park," the pool and rooms are surrounded by tropical forest scenery. In addition to the lush garden views, the hotel features Thai-style architecture, making you feel like you're in a resort in Thailand.
🟠 The hotel also provides guests with a complimentary tropical fruit platter—very thoughtful.
🟠 Additionally, they offer a free professional photography session for guests. You just need to book the photographer's time for the next day upon check-in!
💫💫 This was the first time in my life that I experienced such delightful surprises during a trip! Highly recommended! 😍
🌟 Friendly reminder: Hainan Island is a tropical destination, so don’t forget mosquito repellent and sunscreen!
💰 Average cost: HK$200+/person, including a delicious buffet breakfast.
