Luxury Hotels in Lingshui

"1. The first room we were assigned, Room 1210, had a really bad, damp smell. We couldn't stand it, so we requested a room change. The new room on the first floor didn't have that smell, which was really strange. 2. The gardens here are beautifully done, giving a real Southeast Asian resort vibe. However, the only iconic photo spot is the circular waterfall in the lobby. For social media purposes, having only one signature spot isn't quite enough. While the gardens are exquisite, they don't photograph as uniquely as, say, Sanya Capella; many resorts have similar landscapes. 3. The hotel thoughtfully provided a bathtub, a child's toilet, and all the necessary amenities for children. As many online reviews stated, the bedding was very comfortable! It's clear that everything used throughout the hotel is of high quality, and the children's playground equipment also looks premium. 4. Breakfast runs until 11 AM, there's afternoon tea at 3 PM, cocktails at 6 PM, and red and white wine at 8 PM. You can eat and drink all day, which makes up for some of the hotel's shortcomings. 5. The Thai food was delicious, but the set menu included in the package was just average. The à la carte options were much better. 6. At The Sanya EDITION, paddleboarding was in a murky pond, which we didn't dare to try. At Capella, we decisively went paddleboarding in the pool and had a fantastic time. 7. Our butler, Jaya, was incredibly responsible. She helped us change rooms, carried our belongings, and even mailed forgotten items home. We're truly very grateful ☺️"

"I came to Lingshui for a babymoon and instantly fell in love with Raffles! The entire experience was perfect. The environment was comfortable, and the service was gentle and attentive. It's a true hidden gem for pregnant mothers looking to relax and unwind. The hotel's public areas exude an amazing ambiance, with lush Southeast Asian tropical garden scenery. The coconut groves are vibrant and flourishing, the grounds are clean and tranquil, and the greenery is artfully arranged. The pathways are flat and easy to walk, with no steep inclines, making them perfect for pregnant women to stroll, get some fresh air, and relax. Every photo taken here turns out beautifully. The room stay experience was superb. The room was spacious and airy, with soft, non-glaring natural light and a comfortable, uncrowded layout. The entire room was clean and odor-free, the bedding was soft and skin-friendly, and the facilities were complete. It was quiet and not noisy, making it especially suitable for pregnant mothers to rest and recuperate peacefully and comfortably. The hotel's private beach was meticulously maintained, with fine, soft sand. It was uncrowded and wonderfully peaceful, with a gentle and comfortable sea breeze. A slow walk there is incredibly therapeutic for both mind and body. What touched me most was the hotel's thoughtful and personalized service, especially how attentive and friendly they were to pregnant guests! The staff were gentle and meticulous throughout, proactively checking on my physical condition, offering soothing services, and avoiding noisy or strenuous arrangements. The attention to detail was exceptional. Our dedicated butler had already arranged non-slip mats and pregnancy-friendly pillows in the room. They were always on call, patiently responding to all our needs, making everything so convenient and worry-free. The complimentary travel photography service was also fantastic. The photographer was incredibly gentle and considerate, slowing down the pace and guiding us throughout, avoiding harsh sunlight and uncomfortable poses. The candid shots were natural and beautiful, and the original photos had incredibly high quality, making it easy to capture stunning and gentle babymoon photos. Overall, the environment, facilities, and service were impeccable. The warm and thoughtful details made the stay truly healing. It's a high-quality hotel perfectly suited for a peaceful getaway."

"My stay at the Kimpton Qingshui Bay was absolutely fantastic! The service was incredibly thoughtful and attentive throughout, with staff responding promptly and paying close attention to every detail. The breakfast and dinner buffets offered completely different selections, so you never had to worry about getting tired of the food even after several days. Whether it was the delicate pastries and Hainan local noodles at brunch, or the substantial main courses and seafood snacks at dinner, the flavors were on point, the presentation was exquisite, and the ingredients were fresh. Dining here brought a lot of joy. What truly amazed me was the hotel's architectural design, especially the iconic 'Chess View' space. It's stunning aesthetically and highly functional."

"I stayed here last year on June 22nd. It was a brand new hotel then, and while the hardware and facilities were indeed excellent, the service was noticeably lacking, leaving me with a mediocre impression. My son, however, couldn't stop thinking about Sanyue zheng, so at his strong insistence, I 'reluctantly' booked two nights again this year, just for him. The day before check-in (I missed the call) and on the day of arrival, the hotel called to confirm our arrival time, number of guests, room type, and to arrange a butler service beforehand. This time, our assigned butler, Tiantian, was incredibly attentive. She messaged us at noon (afternoon) and in the evening to inquire about our plans, needs, and to offer warm reminders. She was always responsive to our requests, incredibly quick, and had a wonderful attitude. My son absolutely adored Auntie Tiantian! Upon check-in, we received heart-shaped rabbit cookies, and upon check-out, we even got a heart-shaped rabbit plushie as a souvenir. This stay truly showed me that the hotel is genuinely dedicated to providing a great experience. The door from the G floor to the fountain, which was manual last year, is now a sensor door. The path to the go-karts, which was there last year, has been replaced with a newly built wooden boardwalk. New additions this year include a reptile park, a fun animal farm, equestrian activities, and a sports park – all things that weren't there last year. This gave us a different experience and kept things from feeling stale or boring. The sky glass pool is beautiful, and the scenery is fantastic. Two large screens on either side were showing the World Cup football matches, bringing joy to a dad who was 'reluctantly' accompanying his son for a swim. Before, I was hesitant to stay at Sanyue zheng again, but now I'm already looking forward to booking a full sea-view room and a family room for our next stay. On this Sanya trip, I chose three hotels: a 270-degree sea-view room, a villa with a pool, and the Sanyue zheng landscape two-bedroom suite. My son's favorite was still Sanyue zheng! A wonderful trip also requires an attentive butler. I even received a warm greeting from 'Tiantian' after landing in Shanghai. You were the most beautiful 'surprise' of my trip!"

"We arrived around 2 PM for check-in. There weren't many people, and it only took about ten minutes, but the first room was a connecting room. The front desk didn't mention this at all, and we could hear every word from next door. We asked the concierge to change rooms, and thankfully the hotel responded quickly. However, I'm really annoyed that the front desk assigned me a connecting room without even asking. I've never encountered this at any other hotel. During our stay, the housekeeper would ask every day if we wanted the room cleaned. Does this even need to be asked? If I don't put up the 'Do Not Disturb' sign, shouldn't they just clean it? Later, I found out asking didn't matter anyway. I have long hair, and the hair I shed on the first day of washing was still clogging the shower drain when we checked out. The shower wasn't cleaned at all, and it got progressively slippery over the days, which was beyond frustrating. At one point, I happened to be in the room when a cleaner came. I'd give him ten minutes at most – he just rushed through and left. Plus, the hotel doesn't provide a high-speed hair dryer. I've only seen these old-style dryers in hotels seven or eight years ago. I've stayed at over ten hotels in Hainan every year, and this is the first time I've encountered this. It takes at least half an hour to dry my waist-length hair. For my daughter and me, it took over an hour just for drying hair, which was a huge waste of time. We also encountered a large summer camp group during our stay, with over a hundred kids. Breakfast was pure chaos. On our last day, we finally didn't run into them and had a relatively peaceful breakfast. Our visit to the Ocean World also coincided with this group. They had several sub-groups, and each group would send members ahead to reserve seats for every show. My child and I had to watch the performances from behind a sea of heads. Others had reviewed the amusement park as having few people and no queues, but with this summer camp group, we had to queue for several rides. It was scorching hot, and we couldn't perfectly avoid them every time. We didn't want to go out of our way either, so I was just utterly exasperated... We bought two-day passes, but by the second day, my child was so traumatized she refused to go back. Finally, this was my first time seeing African giant snails in Hainan, especially at night in the greenery about a meter away from the kids' pool slide. There was a whole cluster of them, some even bigger than an adult's fist. We didn't see many during the sunny daytime, but at night, with the high humidity around the pool, all the snails started moving towards it. I reported it to the pool staff, but they just nodded and completely ignored me. Kids are naturally curious, and luckily, we always teach our child not to touch African giant snails because they carry parasites and can cause meningitis! But there's no guarantee that every child near the pool has this awareness and won't touch them! I absolutely cannot understand why the hotel doesn't take this seriously! I've stayed at other hotels in Hainan and never seen African giant snails, only common local species like geckos and small lizards."

"This hotel offers great value for money. It's super convenient, within a half-hour drive to attractions like Dadai Island and Atlantis. The staff are very polite; the bellboy who helped with our luggage even recommended Coconut Chicken Hotpot, which was indeed delicious! This hotel is really popular in the summer. After checking out, I thought I'd left something behind, and they helped me search everywhere, inside and out, only for me to find it in my own car. I'd definitely choose to stay here again, perhaps in winter or during the off-peak season."

"Facilities: The facilities are a bit dated, but overall I'm quite satisfied. The room is spacious, and each room comes with its own private pool. You can ask the hotel to turn on the circulation system. Hygiene: The hygiene is generally good. There are mosquito coils and repellent in the room, as there tend to be more mosquitoes. Environment: The overall environment is very private and has a resort-like feel. There are many trees, and it's quite tranquil. The overall decor is very exquisite. Service: The overall service level is decent. The first day's service was the best, but in the subsequent two days, the wait time for the buggy was quite long."

"Our first stop for the holiday was the Indigo Sanya Clearwater Bay, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. Before we even checked in, our butler, Summer, sent us an introduction to the hotel and recommendations for local food, which really built up our excitement. I have to give a huge shout-out to my butler! First, she upgraded our room, then, knowing I was on my period, she brought me brown sugar ginger tea. On our last night, she surprised me with cake and red wine. Oh my goodness, how can someone be so wonderful? My chat history with her is just full of 'thank yous' 🥹. The rafting was super fun, the pool was great for a dip, the gym was perfect for a run, and the public areas were beautiful for photos, no matter where you shot. Lying in bed and looking out at the sea was incredibly relaxing! Oh, and I also fell in love with the hotel's umbrellas – they're super cute. I asked for the purchase details and plan to have one shipped home."

"The Westin Blue Bay Resort in Lingshui truly delivers a full resort experience. The rooms boast a stunning 180° ocean view, and the Westin Heavenly Bed offers an exceptional sleep. The Instagrammable grotto-style infinity pool is right next to a beautiful sandy beach, perfect for photos – definitely remember to book a paddleboarding session! Breakfast includes authentic Lingshui sour noodles. The resort grounds are lush with greenery, and the service is attentive and discreet, making it an ideal choice for a vacation in Clear Water Bay. The sand quality at Clear Water Bay is genuinely fantastic! We didn't want to leave after multiple nights, and I also want to praise the warm and responsive service from the butler and front desk staff. Thumbs up!👍"

"The hotel boasts a tranquil and serene environment 👍. The lawn is thick and clean, free of branches or dead leaves, and is constantly being tidied up. There's an outdoor pool and a kids' water park, both with very clean water. The hot spring pools, built into the mountainside (like the Baicao Pool and natural sulfuric mineral hot springs) are fantastic 👍 – it's incredibly relaxing to soak in them after a tiring day. The kids' play area is a bit small, better suited for younger children, but it offers a rich variety of activities; older kids can enjoy crafts and other options. The specialty Qingbuliang for breakfast is better than takeout 👍, and dishes like sour noodles and Hainanese fried noodles are also very distinctive. Even after staying for several days, I didn't get tired of the food. I'll definitely be back to stay again."
