Romantic Hotels in Hainan, China

Driving to Riyue Bay, staying at this hotel was super hassle-free. They have a parking lot and a shuttle service that takes you right to your room's building. It's only a few hundred meters from all the major surf clubs, which is really convenient after a surf session. Plus, there's a water park and a horse riding stable nearby, so there are plenty of options for activities and entertainment.

Great Location & Service Saved the Day Our stay was very good but be prepared for one thing. We knew about construction noise but not that it was government-approved for 24 hours. It was tough. I contacted Wendy on WeChat about my headache from the noise. She promptly showed us a new room and moved us in. The new room was excellent – two bedrooms two bathrooms clean and well-equipped. The breakfast was also very tasty. The location was ideal for exploring the city. A long waterfront park and the Sanya One mall are right there for meals and shopping. Don't miss the morning/evening walks on the promenade. Joining the local elders singing and exercising was a unique and wonderful experience.

Sanya Four Seasons Haiting Hotel was absolutely fantastic, I highly recommend it! The hotel's location is superb, right in the prime 'C position' of the Dadonghai Tourist Resort's hillside seascape. It's within walking distance to attractions like Luhuitou Park and Dadonghai Beach. The hotel also offers a free shuttle bus, making getting around incredibly convenient. Upon entering, it felt like stepping into a traditional Chinese garden, with rockeries and flowing water, lush greenery, and beautiful scenery at every turn, exuding an oriental charm. The room also exceeded my expectations. I stayed in a sea-view room with a private balcony and a scenic bathtub. From the balcony, I could overlook the stunning views of Dadonghai and the international yacht marina, especially at sunset – the scenery was absolutely captivating. The room amenities were comprehensive, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and all the toiletries were branded. Plus, it was impeccably clean. The hotel's service was truly impeccable. The front desk staff were warm and professional, check-in was swift, and they provided detailed information about the hotel's facilities and local sightseeing tips. The breakfast buffet in the restaurant offered a wide variety of delicious options, including both Chinese and Western cuisine, catering to diverse tastes. Furthermore, the hotel boasts numerous recreational facilities, such as an outdoor swimming pool, a gym, and a kids' club. I swam in the pool every day – the water was crystal clear and the environment was beautiful. In summary, my stay at Sanya Four Seasons Haiting Hotel was an excellent experience, and I will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Sanya.

Stayed here for three nights, and overall it was decent. It was super crowded, which made for a lively atmosphere, but we had to queue just to get into breakfast, though the wait wasn't too long. The prices here are really high. A bottle of Coke Zero at the water park was 28, and a serving of Oden (6 skewers) was 48 (68 downstairs at the hotel). A single squid skewer was 48! At the Japanese restaurant downstairs, a bowl of Udon was 138 and a beef rice bowl was 168. We really should have taken a taxi to eat out, but we were just too lazy 😭. On the other hand, the room service food was delicious, and by comparison, it didn't seem so expensive. A set menu with four dishes (pictured in Figure 4) was 378. The worst experience here was the travel photography service (Fuyou Pai). The hotel offered five complimentary digital raw photos. First off, the photographer was probably in their forties or fifties, and had us pose in those old-fashioned studio styles from my childhood – and I couldn't refuse! 😭 The raw photos weren't even as good as what I could take with my phone, so I had no choice but to pay 100 for retouched versions. Then I ended up spending another 680 to buy 15 more retouched photos. That money was totally wasted. I've got a new goal for 2026: learn photography 📷. I thought the C Show performance was just okay, but the kids loved it and wanted to see it again 😓. Definitely get seats in the middle.

The hotel is located by Qishui Bay, about a 10-minute walk to the beach. The indoor pool is around 22 meters long with a depth of 1 meter. Some rooms have balconies with views of the launch site, while others overlook Qishui Bay. Since the exact launch time couldn't be known in advance, I missed seeing it from my room, but the hotel does offer a paid viewing service. The concierge staff member was very enthusiastic and provided great emotional support. Chen from the front desk was also very proactive in helping me with various issues. The first obvious drawback is that the facilities are old. The furnishings are several years old, and the surfaces of the furniture and appliances are mottled and rusted. The TV is also too small. The second drawback: after swimming, I left my beach shoes and swimsuit to dry on the balcony. I collected my swimsuit the next day but forgot the beach shoes. I didn't remember them after checking out, and only realized the next day that they were missing. Chen from the front desk actively contacted housekeeping, but was told they weren't found, and no new guests had checked into the room yet. Fearing I might have forgotten, I checked my luggage at home and still couldn't find them. It's highly likely the shoes were treated as abandoned items by the cleaning staff on the balcony. Such a shame!

This guesthouse is absolutely beautiful with a gorgeous environment, probably the best in town. The room directly faces the azure sea, making it the closest I've ever stayed to the ocean. It's clean, with modern and complete facilities, and the service is warm and attentive. It's located in a very quiet part of Tianya Town, close to the hustle and bustle but still offering a private, tranquil escape – both convenient and relaxing. There are many charming coffee shops nearby where you could easily spend an entire day. It's also very close to the beach, which is incredibly convenient when traveling with kids. Plus, the guesthouse has its own beautiful pool that perfectly complements the blue sky and sea – so incredibly comfortable!

It's hard to put into words, I went to experience the beautiful Ocean Flower Island with endless imagination, but only after I arrived did I realize it was far from satisfactory. Dining: If you don't want to eat at the hotel, you have to walk more than ten minutes to the food court. But when you're exhausted from a day of playing and arrive at the hotel at 7 PM, you just want to go straight to a restaurant to eat your fill and recharge. However, as soon as you reach the hotel entrance, the sea breeze was so strong it blew us, who are sensitive to cold, back to the hotel. Taking a taxi to Island 2 didn't help either, as there was no large shopping complex that could provide shelter from the wind and rain. We just made do. Even more frustrating, if you don't use the hotel breakfast, the earliest external delivery the hotel allows is 9 AM, and you receive it at 9:15 AM. So many inconveniences. It was a loss for someone like me who only stayed one night to check it out. I didn't enjoy any perks and left the island. Not even a complimentary electric cart tour. Even if they didn't offer other things, a free electric cart from the hotel entrance to the food court would have been great. Alas, I shouldn't be so impulsive next time.

Facilities: This five-star hotel boasts comprehensive and luxurious facilities. The large balcony with a bathtub, lounge chair, and table is a thoughtful touch. The linens are of excellent quality and very comfortable. However, the toiletries could use an upgrade. The breakfast buffet is rich, varied, and delicious, featuring Hainanese specialties. Dishes and drinks are replenished promptly, which is a big plus! 👍 Cleanliness: Very clean and tidy! 👍 Environment: Both the interior and exterior environments are excellent! It really has a holiday vibe. The hotel offers very convenient and close access to the beach and seawall, and it's clean and not crowded. Service: The front desk and housekeeping staff are well-trained. They actively greet guests and respond to guest requests promptly and proactively. A huge thumbs up! 👍

This was my first time staying at a hotel in Haikou, and I'm so glad I picked this one! 60% of the reason was thanks to the incredibly thoughtful service from our butler, Jenny. She contacted me a few days before our arrival to help with check-in arrangements, and after we checked in, she even sent over a personalized guide to Haikou's attractions and food. We followed her recommendations for meals over the past few days, and every single one was spot on. Whenever we had any questions during our stay, Jenny was always there to help immediately, showing such care and patience! I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time I'm in Haikou! 😊

We stayed in a panoramic room, and the space was both clean and generously sized. You definitely pay for the view, and in this case it’s worth it—the scenery from the room is truly marvellous. Most essentials were provided, and the hotel grounds include several conveniences such as on‑site restaurants, a Starbucks, and a small tuck shop. There were, however, a few areas where the experience could be improved. The swimming facilities were disappointing. Although two pools were technically operational, neither felt inviting or photo‑worthy. One had been converted into a sand pit, and temporary barriers were set up everywhere to block day visitors, which created an eye sore. Construction further took away from the atmosphere. Breakfast offered a decent selection and was sufficient overall, though friends who had visited before mentioned that the spread used to be better. After a few days, you’ll likely find yourself eating more or less the same items. Communication could also be smoother. Having at least one staff member who speaks English—or an alternative text‑based communication option—would make the stay easier for international guests. The Sky Lounge, however, was comfortable and a pleasant place to relax. Dining inside the hotel isn’t particularly affordable, but not too bad for a hotel, and I would have appreciated a stronger seafood selection. Many guests seemed to opt for food delivery instead. Small in‑room additions like earbuds, toothpicks, and a notepad would also elevate the experience. Overall, Phoenix Hotel Sanya offers beautiful views and convenient on‑site amenities, but there’s room for improvement in facilities, dining, and guest communication.
