This is my second time back at Kimpton Shimei Bay within six months. Honestly, as a hotel in Hainan, this is truly the first one that has ever made me want to make a special trip back twice in half a year 🌊
Having stayed at countless cookie-cutter mega-resorts in Hainan, I’ve grown to prefer these boutique, ”small yet refined” hidden gems. There are no bustling crowds, no waiting in line for elevators or meals, and the entire pace of the vacation slows right down. It’s the ultimate spot for young people looking to truly unplug and unwind in peace.
The hotel’s aesthetic is on point from start to finish. From the lobby and public areas to the infinity pool and ocean-view terrace—even the lighting and shadows in the hallways are so textured and chic—every snap is Instagram-worthy 📸 You don't need to hunt down popular photo spots; just strolling around and clicking the shutter yields vacation shots brimming with atmosphere. For photo lovers, this is a massive bonus.
I have to give a special shoutout to our host, Steven! 👍 The service was attentive yet perfectly understated. From the pre-arrival communication to various minor requests during our stay, responses were lightning-fast. He anticipated so many details in advance that we didn't have to worry about a thing. He never disrupted our holiday flow, yet always appeared right when we needed him. That delicate balance of service was just nailed to perfection.
What really got to me, though, was the attention to detail. The in-room amenities and bedding are of top-notch quality, and you can feel the thoughtfulness behind so many subtle designs and small objects. It’s not the kind of resort vibe built on grand, massive facilities; instead, it tucks ”exquisiteness” into every single experience, truly perfecting the art of the boutique stay.
Among all the hotels in Hainan, it might not be the most famous or the largest in scale, but it's the kind of place that wins you over completely the moment you stay. Low-key, textured, with stellar service, it effortlessly maximizes that relaxed, effortless holiday state of mind.
I genuinely recommend this to anyone who wants to skip the crowds and just find a cozy spot to lie back and watch the ocean. Next time I'm in Lingshui, I will definitely choose to stay here again ✨

Anonymous UserThe hotel's overall hardware facilities truly live up to its five-star standards—grand in environment with comprehensive amenities, and the service maintains the consistent quality of the Hilton brand. As a hot spring-themed hotel, the soaking experience is top-notch, and the resort vibe is spot on~
⚠️ Check-in & Stay Tips to Avoid Pitfalls
However, having stayed here during the National Day golden week, I'd like to share a few genuine thoughts:
1️⃣ Allow extra time for check-in: It was exceptionally busy during the holiday. After finishing the paperwork, it took nearly an hour before our room was ready. I’d recommend staggering your check-in time or communicating your arrival time in advance.
2️⃣ Room location to avoid: We were assigned the very last room at the end of the hallway on the ground floor. While the long walk wasn't a huge deal, lying in bed made it painfully obvious to notice the low-frequency vibration noise from outdoor equipment, which really took a toll on sleep quality 😴 I suggest proactively asking at the front desk if you can be assigned a room away from the mechanical rooms.
3️⃣ Hot spring experience: The soaking experience itself is great, seeing as this is the hotel's main highlight. I recommend setting aside plenty of time to fully unwind and enjoy it.
Despite a few minor hiccups with the check-in process and room location this time around, the hotel's hardware quality and hot spring experience are still well worth recognizing. If you visit outside of peak season and manage to snag a good room, the overall resort experience should be much better~ Just remember to make room location a top priority when you go!

Vince YiWe had a wonderfully comfortable two-day getaway, and this was my first stay at Capella, which left a fantastic impression. I'm already looking forward to checking out the soon-to-open Capella Nanjing next.
First, the service: Blacky, our Cultural & Travel Ambassador, made our stay incredibly warm. From daily chats to handling our requests, messages were always answered instantly, morning or night. Blacky patiently introduced and deeply recommended various explorations and special activities, making our itinerary rich and fun. They were always eager to help without being intrusive, and this genuine warmth created unforgettable holiday memories. At Silk Road for breakfast, the restaurant manager enthusiastically introduced us to a tamarind latte, a local specialty. Even if it might not be a standard menu item, their eagerness to share local cuisine and hotel specialties, and to create surprises for guests, deeply touched me. The special blend was perfectly balanced with sweet and sour notes and excellently presented. These unexpected delights made for precious holiday experiences.
Regarding the most important aspect of a holiday – the accommodation experience – the bedding quality was superb. After staying at numerous major brands for business travel, Capella Tufu Bay, Hainan's bedding comfort is one of the best, absolutely worth experiencing. As a resort hotel, it was pitch dark when the curtains were closed, and the soundproofing was excellent, allowing us to easily sleep until we woke up naturally and still make it to breakfast before 11 am.
The hotel grounds are extensive. While I'm no architecture expert, I adore plants. The landscaping choices and arrangements are exceptionally well-thought-out. Compared to most hotels with limited, often dense plant varieties, Capella Tufu Bay, Hainan features everything from high-reaching traveler's palms and regular palms, to mid-level broadleaf shrubs, and various ferns at ground level, all arranged in a naturally staggered way. We could call for a buggy anytime, anywhere on the grounds, but I preferred to stroll through this private, secluded garden, enjoying both shade from direct sunlight and the fragrant aroma of plants.
The main pool is open until 10 PM, allowing for plenty of water play even after the hottest part of the day. Paddleboards and magic carpets were freely available and a hit with the kids. The heated pool is a 25-meter standard lap pool, and the gym is fully equipped with cardio and strength training machines, plus a ping-pong table and tennis courts – more than enough options for a holiday. My favorite part was the complimentary access to the dry sauna, steam room, massage pool, and snow room at the spa. It was a wonderful experience; my skin felt much smoother after alternating between hot and cold.
For dining, the fruit Danish at Silk Road's breakfast is a must-try. Their custard cream is silky smooth and not overly sweet – I want the recipe! I also recommend ordering a bowl of Yi Mein noodles with wontons and adding a generous scoop of 'zaopocu' (a local sour vinegar) to create your own 'zaopocu' wonton noodles – everyone should give it a try! Sabai Sabai, the Thai restaurant, has excellent online reviews and was generally good. Their peanut sauce is delicious, but a word of caution: the curry beef ribs curry contains a significant amount of peanuts and has a very strong peanut base, which is quite unusual. If you're not a fan, I suggest choosing other curry options like chicken curry or crab curry.
We opted for the basic room type this time, and the overall experience far exceeded our expectations. The spacious nearly 90-square-meter interior, convenient buggy service around the resort, extensive activity schedule, and consistently meticulous hospitality meant that, apart from potential differences in room views and amenities based on booking, there was essentially no sense of a 'basic room' compromise. The baseline quality is exceptionally high. I'm really looking forward to experiencing their villa suites when I visit next year.

The room is very clean and spacious. It is close to the beach for watching the sunrise and catching the sea. It is about 100 meters to the beach. You can see monkeys on the roadside on the way to the homestay. You can eat at the homestay. The fried chicken and tomato scrambled eggs are very delicious. Seafood needs to be booked in advance with the boss, so I didn't eat seafood. The shrimp porridge for breakfast is very delicious. The store also provides tools for catching the sea.

Anonymous UserXiao Zheng at the front desk was very enthusiastic and helpful. The hotel's outdoor greenery is beautiful, the sky and sea are a stunning blue, and the sand on the beach is incredibly soft. It's very close to Daidai Island and Monkey Island, only about two kilometers away. Taxis are quite easy to get here, and if you're driving, it's even more convenient. The stay at the hotel was decent, though it was a bit hot. There's no air conditioning in the lobby or in the breakfast area, but other than that, everything else was perfect.

Guest UserThe hotel has a fantastic location, not far from Wuzhizhou Island (Fenjiezhou Island), making it very convenient for going back and forth to the attractions. The room facilities are well-maintained, and the balcony is huge—it's so relaxing to just sit there and enjoy the sea breeze. Housekeeping is spotless, and the quality of the toiletries provided is quite high. There are multiple swimming zones, and the adult pool is very quiet. The buffet breakfast is served until 11:00 AM, so you don't have to worry about missing it if you want to sleep in. The resort grounds are expansive, perfect for a leisurely stroll. Free parking is a huge plus for those driving themselves, offering great value for money overall.

The view across from the hotel is amazing! Opening the window this morning to a lake view was truly delightful. I don't know the name of the lake, but it's definitely beautiful. The hotel's location is great; there's everything you could want for eating, drinking, and entertainment. Surprisingly, they even have a BaWang ChaJi (a popular tea brand) here! I've never seen one in Yingzhou before. This is my first time staying at this hotel, recommended by a friend. And it truly lives up to my friend's description: excellent service, beautiful scenery, and convenient parking—there are parking spaces in front and a large parking lot in the back. The rooms are also very spacious, and the price is reasonable.

The hotel is in Li'an Town, the room is clean and tidy, the bed is relatively large, and the price is high. There is a supermarket downstairs that is very convenient, and the dishes at the Wanghai Hotel next to it are not bad. It is about 3 kilometers away from Gangmenling Park. It is still a little far to walk. You can take the bus or call Didi. Whether you are driving or traveling freely, it is recommended to live here. Gangmenling Park has a beach to play, and you can also climb high and look far. It is worth a visit.
