Hotels in HaiTang Bay/CDF Mall/Hou Hai, Sanya

Atlantis Sanya Hotel Stay Review I've long dreamt of staying at the Atlantis Sanya, a fantastical landmark perched on Haitang Bay. Just catching a glimpse of its iconic ”Poseidon Tower” from afar instantly ignited my vacation excitement. This time, I finally took my family during the holidays, and not only did we immerse ourselves in the wondrous underwater world, but we were also incredibly touched by the super attentive service, making our entire stay truly blissful. Upon entering the hotel, the first thing that caught my eye was the gigantic seahorse sculpture. Its dynamic form, coupled with dazzling lights, immediately created an immersive ocean-themed atmosphere. I couldn't resist pausing to snap several photos. Stepping further in, the lobby was even more stunning – a colossal aquarium teeming with colorful tropical fish, a dome adorned with blue lights resembling deep-sea reflections, and even the floor tiles subtly designed with wave patterns. Every snapshot felt like it belonged in a magazine. Right after checking in, we headed straight to the theater for the C Show. The aquatic stunts, aerial silks, and ocean-themed storyline on stage perfectly blended together, with dazzling lights and spectacular performances that captivated both adults and children, leaving everyone thoroughly thrilled. Our ocean-view twin room was a real gem, offering double the surprise as soon as we opened the door: one side showcased the lively scene of roller coasters zipping through the Aquaventure Waterpark, while the other presented the calming vista where the azure sea merged with the skyline. Waking up to the sound of waves in the morning and watching the park lights illuminate the night sky in the evening was incredibly relaxing. The thoughtful details in the room were also heartwarming: children's toothbrushes and slippers were already laid out, the soft bedding was comfortable against the skin, a footstool was provided at the vanity for little ones, and complimentary sodas were supplied in the mini-fridge, restocked daily. The entire hotel felt like a shopping mall, offering everything from dining and entertainment to shopping (Hainan specialties, Pop Mart, BaWangChaJi, ice cream, popcorn, and other shops). Guests staying at the hotel enjoyed unlimited access to the aquarium and waterpark. In ”The Lost Chambers” Aquarium, we wandered through underwater tunnels, watching sharks swim overhead, as if transported to a mysterious underwater kingdom. Although we didn't try the thrilling rides at the waterpark, feeding the stingrays and letting the children float down the lazy river multiple times were all incredibly enjoyable. The hotel also gifted us 5 free travel photoshoots. After booking a time with the staff in advance, the photographer guided us through various poses, and the final results were outstanding. The staff member who helped us choose the photos was very helpful, offering suggestions when I was indecisive, and ultimately helped me select a cost-effective package. Our butler, Ivy, was an absolute treasure. The day before our arrival, she proactively added me on WeChat, reminded me of the hotel's activity routes and the C Show schedule, and even presented us with a pair of adorable whale plushies as a welcome gift. My children adored them and kept asking for another pair. I hesitantly messaged Ivy, and to my surprise, she quickly delivered another pair. Throughout our stay, whether it was for information or room service, Ivy always responded instantly, truly acting as our dedicated and attentive personal butler. The service from our room attendant, Li Chunmiao, was even more meticulous and touching. Every day when we returned from our outings, the room was spotless, the bed made perfectly, and even the children's scattered toys were neatly organized. She also thoughtfully gave us an extra pair of whale plushies. She specifically noticed that we were using chairs to block the bed, worried about the children falling off during sleep, so she proactively brought and installed a child bed rail, making sure it was stable before leaving. While luxurious hardware is the foundation, it's the supremely thoughtful service that truly defines the soul of Atlantis. Many thanks to butler Ivy and room attendant Li Chunmiao for their dedicated efforts. Next time we visit Sanya, we will definitely choose to stay here again!

I've stayed at Sofitel before when I traveled to Egypt. This time, my friends and I planned to spend New Year's Eve in Sanya, and Sofitel in Haitang Bay was naturally our top choice! The check-in experience was truly excellent! Upon arrival at the hotel, you're greeted with the signature 'Sofitel Red' welcome drink – a special touch from Sofitel! You do need to go to the lobby to get it yourself (cups are provided). Before we even checked in, our lovely concierge, Ms. Anna, contacted me in advance. Since the room was booked under two names, there was a slight hiccup during check-in, but Anna resolved everything. What's more, after check-in, she personally escorted each of us to our rooms, which was a truly wonderful experience! As for the hotel rooms and facilities, they were beyond amazing. The room was incredibly spacious with high ceilings, giving it a very open and airy feel! This time, I also had to work remotely for a bit, so I completely skipped sightseeing and just enjoyed the hotel. There are several swimming pools, plus a private beach – it was so much fun and incredibly relaxing! I regret not booking more days; I should have stayed longer! One more thing that's particularly worth mentioning! We booked a room package that included adult breakfast, and each room came with free breakfast for two children under 12. Even though we only had one child, this gesture made us feel really valued! They also sent complimentary fruit and desserts to the room, which were both beautiful and delicious 😋 And the late check-out was a lifesaver. This allowed us to enjoy the water until noon, then spend more time playing until around 1 PM before heading back to the room to pack. We weren't rushed at all for check-out. Haitang Bay is peaceful, and transportation is incredibly convenient. Right outside Sofitel, you can rent Strawberry Bear-themed electric scooters. You can lock them mid-trip and return them to a designated spot later. It's super convenient and helps avoid traffic! My honest feeling: Next time I come to Sanya, I won't go to any other bay; I'll stay right here in Haitang Bay, and it'll be at Sofitel! The only regret is that my travel photoshoot didn't happen. The photoshoot customer service didn't communicate the time with me promptly. It felt a bit like 'there are too many people, and you're just one of them.' Otherwise, the Sofitel hotel lawn, beach, or pool would have been perfect for stunning photos.

This hotel in Sanya, part of The Luxury Collection, truly exceeded my expectations. The modern design, with its beautifully landscaped gardens and interwoven pools, makes for stunning photos everywhere you look. The service, in particular, deserves high praise. The bellboys were all incredibly enthusiastic and proactive, making us feel right at home from the moment they helped with our luggage upon arrival to arranging our car for departure. The nightly 'evening ritual' was a unique experience; the fire dance performance and boat blessing were both special and ceremonial, adding a romantic touch to our vacation. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay and highly recommended.

The sea at Haitang Bay is indeed more beautiful than at Yalong Bay! The hotel bed was very comfortable; this old-school five-star still holds up! My mom has some mobility issues, and the front desk arranged a room close to the elevator for us. The live singer at night was excellent! We even had the good fortune to be invited to a romantic wedding of a newlywed couple. If I had to mention any downsides, the breakfast taste and variety were really quite subpar, and the elevators were incredibly slow!

The package I bought was great value for money. The all-wood decor hints at its former glory, and the canal views are truly unique. It's easy to get lost, though! The room amenities, environment, and service attitude were all excellent. The evening ceremony was fantastic, and the afternoon tea and happy hour were enough to fill me up. Breakfast was very high quality, and the knife-cut noodles were amazing, though you do have to queue as it gets busy. The only downside was that the pool was old and had no warm water.

I recently stayed at the Shangri-La Sanya for 4 nights with my parents and child, and everyone absolutely loved it! This hotel is definitely a hidden gem for a family vacation. 📍 **Excellent Location:** It's super close to the beach, and some rooms even offer direct sea views. It's only a 10-minute drive to the Sanya International Duty-Free Shopping Complex, which is incredibly convenient for those who love to shop. Wuzhizhou Island pier is also not far, making it easy to hail a taxi. 🛏️ **Room Experience:** Since I was traveling with my parents and child, I opted for the Horizon Club. The Horizon Club offers access to an executive lounge with not only breakfast but also afternoon tea and dinner, which was incredibly convenient. The room itself was spacious and bright, and the balcony offered stunning sea views. The room was exceptionally clean and thoughtfully equipped with children's toiletries and a children's step stool. There's also a sofa bed in the room, which you can ask the butler to set up in advance – perfect for a family of four. 🍽️ **Satisfying Dining:** The main restaurant's breakfast spread was incredibly rich with a huge variety of options, including freshly squeezed watermelon and cantaloupe juice. To my surprise, there was even a dedicated kids' area! It offered not only dishes suitable for children like wontons, congee, pasta, steamed buns, and fried snacks, but also finely cut fruits and vegetables, showing great consideration for little ones. My child absolutely loved it. The Horizon Club executive lounge was also fantastic. Besides afternoon tea, they have an evening happy hour with different hot dishes each day. They also offered non-spicy vegetable and meat dishes, as well as fried noodles and rice, suitable for children. Everything tasted great. 🎪 **Abundant Children's Activities:** There are tons of parent-child activities every day, along with unlimited free rides on the mini-train. We participated in a dragon fruit sushi-making class, which was a wonderful experience, and my child had an absolute blast. The hotel also has an adventure zone, a petting zoo, and you can even ride ponies and ostriches, which the kids really enjoyed. The water park is also large and clean. Unfortunately, it was a bit chilly when we visited, so we didn't go in, but it would be perfect for warmer weather. 💫 **Five-Star Service:** The hotel service was absolutely superb. Romy checked us in, and she was incredibly kind. She helped us resolve a breakfast issue and personally escorted us to the shuttle bus stop after check-in. Our luggage was also delivered directly to our room by a dedicated staff member – super nice. This vacation was incredibly satisfying, and I will definitely choose Shangri-La again the next time I visit Sanya!

Choosing this hotel was absolutely the best decision for our beach vacation! The moment we stepped into the lobby, the stunning blue ocean view captivated us, instantly washing away the fatigue of our journey with the sea breeze. The room completely exceeded our expectations – it was cozy, immaculate, and the soft, large bed was incredibly comfortable. The bathroom had a separate wet and dry area with abundant, stable hot water, and all the smart amenities you could wish for. Every detail showed careful thought. The hotel's private beach is a hidden gem; the sand is as fine as flour, feeling wonderfully soft underfoot. Our kids loved digging for shells and building sandcastles, and the air was filled with a delightful sweet and salty scent – so relaxing and rejuvenating. The service was exceptionally heartwarming. From the moment we checked in, our butler Helen proactively helped with luggage and gave us a detailed tour guide. Any requests were met with immediate responses, making us feel completely at home throughout our stay. They even thoughtfully upgraded our room, which made the experience even more fantastic. Whether you're on a family holiday, a romantic getaway, or a solo retreat, this place will exceed your expectations. It’s a perfect escape from the city hustle, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the gentle embrace of the sea. I’m already looking forward to my next visit! The hotel offers curated photography spots that are absolutely stunning, perfect for capturing beautiful memories.

This hotel is amazing! The dinner selection is extensive, and the hotel boasts a vast, clean, and leafy courtyard. The staff are warm and friendly, the beach is clean, and the water is beautifully clear. It's a great hotel, very neat and tidy. Dinner is superb, and breakfast is good too. The hotel has a lovely environment, and Harry's service was excellent, always proactively offering assistance. The location is great, facilities are comprehensive, and the buffet breakfast offers good taste and variety.

Due to my limited time, I ultimately chose the Grand Hyatt among the many hotels in Haitang Bay, and it was my first stay here. Although my three-day trip was short, it left a lasting impression, and I now realize my choice of hotel was absolutely perfect. First, when I booked, I specifically called to request the highest floor available for my room type. Upon arrival, the check-in took a bit longer, possibly due to a large number of guests in the afternoon. While speaking with the front desk, I learned I had been assigned a 12th-floor suite. They asked if I needed a travel photoshoot. I casually asked if I could exchange it for afternoon tea or cocktails instead, not really expecting much, but to my surprise, the front desk readily agreed to give me a bottle of red wine. I was immediately struck by the breathtaking view as soon as I entered the room – a wide, unobstructed ocean view. The room was well-equipped and very comfortable. My butler, MAX, was incredibly thoughtful, sending a welcome message and hotel information, and he was always quick and accurate in responding to my questions. The hotel's landscaping is also beautiful. If you don't feel like venturing out, you can simply stroll around the grounds, or take a pleasant walk by the sea. The breakfast is extensive, but it can get quite crowded during peak hours; an alternative is the smaller restaurant in the North Tower. The 68 Food Street, right next to the hotel, is also worth a visit. After hearing my suggestions and feedback on my stay, the hotel even arranged a car to take me to the high-speed train station, which was a very thoughtful touch.

I booked a large room, and it was very clean. The view was great, especially the ocean view, which was fantastic. It was also very well-ventilated. Everything in the room was spotless, making for a very pleasant experience. I've already stayed here twice and will probably book again. Highly recommended! It's perfect for traveling with friends!
