Although it was only a partial sea view, the front desk attendant gave me a room with a great view, directly overlooking the pool downstairs. The hotel has a strong resort vibe with a direct path to the beach. I would definitely come back again if I have the chance.
60-minute Chinese massage: Very comfortable. If your booking includes a massage, you absolutely have to try it!

1. The hygiene was terrible. The sink in the bathroom was covered in toothpaste stains from previous guests.
2. The service was also awful. The fruit provided in the room was rotten! I didn't notice and picked it up, getting sticky goo all over my hand.
3. I don't know what the hotel's standards are for its staff. Some staff members take off their shoes before entering the room, but two male staff members walked directly onto the room's carpet with their shoes on.
Dreamland Photo Shoot: The photographer for this activity should seriously go home. Don't expect any good photos from them.

I'm quite satisfied with my stay. I booked my flight and hotel on the day of the Qingming Festival. I'd actually been looking at hotels for days, and on the booking day, this was the most suitable option when searching for queen-size sea view rooms under a thousand yuan. Xiaodonghai is very private overall; I later visited Dadonghai and found it too flashy. The hotel's public areas aren't large, but for a young person traveling alone, it was perfectly sufficient and convenient. The pool offers views of the mountains, sea, coconut trees, and green lawns. I was pretty much the only one swimming, which was a really awesome experience! You can even glimpse the sea from the bathtub in the room, and the showerhead had excellent water pressure, which I really liked. I hope to come back to Sanya during the peak season on a sunny day next time.

The views are lovely, and the hotel's massage service was great. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful, and the driver was excellent. Our room opened right onto the pool, and a short walk led directly to the beach and ocean. They even prepared a cake for my early birthday celebration. It was a very satisfying trip!

This is the worst hotel in Sanya, absolutely trash! The service is terrible, the environment is awful! Anyone who stays here will regret it. I spent over 5,000 yuan, it felt like throwing money away! Do NOT book this hotel!

This place is incredibly run-down. Coupled with the Southeast Asian decor and the lack of people, it just gives off a really eerie vibe. It desperately needs a renovation! The location is actually great though, very convenient for those who enjoy catching seafood.

Just checked out! This hotel in Luhuitou was a real surprise. Perched halfway up the mountain, the views are absolutely incredible, offering a panoramic sunset over Sanya Bay. The room was spacious, and soaking in the bathtub on the balcony while looking out at the sea was incredibly relaxing. The service was thoughtful, and they even welcomed us with a fruit platter. The only minor drawback is that you need a taxi to get in and out, but for these views, it's definitely worth it. I'll be back next time!

The room was decent, clean, and tidied promptly. The service was warm and welcoming. While the indoor facilities felt a bit dated, the outdoor environment was fantastic, featuring a small outdoor hot spring and a swimming pool. The beach was also excellent, with incredibly clear, 'jelly-like' water.

This used to be an Anantara, and it's different from the one in Xishuangbanna. The evening massage was done by a Thai person, and the two-hour relaxation session in the morning was incredibly supportive. The coral is beautiful, and I loved the sun and the grassy areas.

Response from Property: Dear Valued Guest: Happy New Year! We are slightly disappointed that we did not meet your five-star rating. Our hotel, formerly known as the Anantara Resort Hotel, was renamed the Sanya Luhuitou Resort Hotel in 2019. Inheriting Thai style, it offers a relaxed and luxurious experience, allowing you to experience the beauty of a Southeast Asian island without leaving the country – a true alternative to Phuket. Our Superior View Room is 62 square meters, spacious in Thai style, and fully equipped. We suggest you try our Deluxe Ocean View Room next time you have the opportunity; the different experience will leave you with a different feeling. Wishing you a Happy New Year and a happy family.

The hotel is large and very peaceful. The complimentary massage was also very comfortable. Compared to another much more expensive hotel, the service wasn't exceptionally warm but still decent. The only thing I couldn't stand was the mosquitoes at night; even a plug-in mosquito repellent didn't help at all. The Thai food was delicious.

To be honest, I was quite looking forward to staying here because it used to be an Anantara property. I've been to Hainan four or five times already, and I generally prefer the convenience of Dadonghai and Xiaodonghai, so I chose this hotel for my stay. Overall, after Anantara de-flagged, the hotel's maintenance and management really fell behind.
We checked in at 5 PM that day, only to be told our room wasn't ready yet. The front desk staff said he'd help expedite the cleaning, so we had to go stroll on the beach for half an hour before finally checking in. Once in the room, it was clear the facilities were outdated. Even though it had a Kohler toilet, it was a very old model from many years ago. The bathroom and toilet area were very old overall, and there was even a sewage smell coming from the bathroom. Luckily, it's close to the city, so ordering takeout was convenient, and we just made it through the first night.
On the second day, we opted for room cleaning and went out for lunch around 11 AM. When we returned to the hotel around 2 PM, the door lock wouldn't open. The front desk came to check and found that the lock was indeed problematic, completely out of battery, they said. They had to call engineering to open it, and after it was opened, it couldn't be closed again. Inside, we found the room hadn't been cleaned at all, and the toilet smell was extremely strong. We immediately contacted the front desk to request an early check-out that day and moved to a hotel in Haitang Bay.
Sigh, the hotel seemed severely understaffed. It felt like the same front desk person was handling everything and apologizing from start to finish.
As for breakfast, there were very few items, and even fewer servers. In the morning, a server even swept eggshells directly onto the floor. I thought she'd clean the floor afterward, but she didn't...
I can only say, if you're looking for something cheap, you can stay here, but if you're planning a vacation, forget it. The only good things about this hotel are its convenient location and the decent view of Xiaodonghai; there's really not much else to praise.
