5-Star Hotels in Lingshui

The Kimpton Shimao Clearwater Bay is hands down the best hotel I've ever stayed at in terms of service! Our family of two adults and four children was incredibly touched by the thoughtful details throughout our entire stay. The hotel's decor is exactly my style – that understated 'old money' aesthetic. The ambiance is sophisticated yet comfortable, and both the public areas and the rooms are incredibly photogenic. The kids' amenities were genuinely impressive; without even asking, they prepared a puppy plush toy for each of our four children, and also provided four sun protection kits. When I casually complimented how nice the hotel's fabric tote bags were, the staff generously offered me one on the spot – absolutely no stinginess at all. The kids' craft activities were abundant and engaging, keeping the children thoroughly entertained. Even more thoughtful, they proactively extended our check-out time until 2 PM, which was a huge relief for a family with multiple kids, allowing us to pack without rushing. It really enhanced our experience. The entire staff was gentle and meticulous, always ready to assist, and their thoughtfulness was evident everywhere. This is definitely the top choice for family vacations. I'll be staying here again on my next visit to Clearwater Bay!

Our overall experience at Sanyue Hotel was fantastic. The hotel's ambiance is elegant, with beautifully maintained gardens. Our room was clean and tidy, the bedding was comfortable, and the sea view was expansive. The hotel facilities are comprehensive and well-maintained, including the pool and kids' club, creating a wonderful holiday atmosphere. Check-in and check-out processes were smooth, and the staff were generally very friendly. A special shout-out to the concierge team! They were incredibly proactive and helpful, assisting with luggage, recommending tour routes, and patiently answering all our transportation-related questions. They were always quick to help coordinate any requests we had, making it perfect for family vacations. We were extremely satisfied with this stay and will definitely prioritize Sanyue Hotel again when we return to Lingshui. Highly recommended!

This time I wanted to visit Lingshui for some beach fun in Sanya, so I found this Hilton hotel in Tufu Bay. Being newly opened, the facilities are quite new and clean, with a fresh and modern decor. The bathroom and shower facilities are new, with strong water pressure. The kids' club is a bit small, and there's one large outdoor pool. However, the main reason we came here was for the beach, which is very close – just a 50-meter walk away. The neighboring Capella boutique hotel's location definitely confirms that this spot is ideal. The beach is shallow with small waves, perfect for children. Although it's a bit far from the city center, renting a car makes getting around easy, and it's also close to Haitang Bay. The main draw of this hotel is its excellent value for money. We stayed for 5 consecutive days, and the service was superb. A special shout-out to Bella at the front desk for upgrading us to a high-floor sea view room, which was absolutely stunning – the ocean view was incredibly beautiful and the water was crystal clear. When checking out, Carol at the front desk gave my child a lovely souvenir, which they adored. This stay was a great success, and I'll definitely choose this Hilton again when I come to Sanya.

My first trip to Sanya was absolutely stunning, thanks to Capella! It's definitely the top choice for families with kids, and the ocean-view room was breathtaking! This was our first time bringing our two-year-old to Sanya, and after thorough research, we chose Capella – and it proved to be the perfect decision! We stayed for a whole week, and the first 4 nights in the ocean-view room were simply amazing. Stepping out onto the balcony, you're greeted by an endless expanse of ocean. Waking up to that view every day put me in such a great mood. The room itself was incredibly spacious; even on rainy days, there was plenty of room for our baby to run and play. We could lay out several suitcases on the floor without feeling cramped at all. Capella's attention to detail was exceptional. Besides the routine morning cleaning, there was also a super ritualistic evening turndown service, with fresh towels and water replenished promptly. The main pool is fantastic for photos in swimwear! There were lifeguards on duty constantly, and they even helped inflate swimming rings. Towels were already laid out on the lounge chairs, so you could dry off immediately after swimming and avoid catching a cold. The sand on the beach was incredibly fine and soft; it felt so comfortable to walk on barefoot. Our baby loved digging in the sand so much that she didn't want to leave. And I must commend the Thai restaurant for its food! The grilled sea bass was absolutely divine, and the shaved ice was so refreshing in the summer heat. The service was also incredibly thoughtful; when we asked for plain boiled noodles for our baby, the kitchen prepared them for free. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of Chinese and Western dishes. That sour and spicy 'zaopo cu' (vinegar soup) was so appetizing; it felt like it could go with anything! It happened to be my and my husband's birthdays during our stay, and the hotel not only surprised us with a delicious, not-too-sweet birthday cake but also specially prepared longevity noodles for breakfast. It was both surprising and incredibly touching! The beachfront BBQ in the evening also had a wonderful ambiance, and we ate so much we could barely move. Most importantly, I want to thank our butler, Sky! She contacted us even before check-in, providing a super comprehensive map, details on the three ceremonies, and reservation guides. During our stay, she was warm, thoughtful, and meticulous. Any requests we had were handled incredibly quickly, and her responses were super prompt. Thank you, Sky, for your attentive care these past few days. We'll definitely stay here again next time we're in Sanya!

We originally booked a three-night stay. We arrived at the hotel around 2:30 PM, but weren't able to check in until almost 4 PM. We were exhausted and frustrated, especially since there was no room for the child to rest. After getting to our room, I immediately complained and canceled the remaining two nights. After dinner, Xiao Gang from the front desk called to apologize, and they sent complimentary welcome fruit to all three rooms. The next day, Manager A Zhan also apologized and sent milk. I want to especially commend Xiao Gang from the front desk and Manager A Zhan for their prompt and sincere handling of the issue. The children also enjoyed the swimming pool. We ended up extending our stay, and overall it was quite good. Despite a few minor hiccups, their follow-up service was commendable. Thumbs up to the hotel – if I come to Lingshui again, I'll definitely stay here.

This hotel offers incredible value for money! For the price, the room was really good. What's even better is the massive hotel grounds; beautiful scenery is everywhere. You have to walk down a long corridor to get to the lobby, which really adds to the resort vibe! It's not convenient to order takeout nearby, as the minimum delivery fees are quite high. I'd recommend just eating at the hotel restaurant – their set menus on group deals are actually quite affordable.

Traveling during the off-season was amazing! They upgraded us for free to a sea-view room, where we could even watch the sunrise. Too bad I didn't catch it once during my three-day stay, as it kept raining on and off... The front desk lady was beautiful and kind, very thoughtful and enthusiastic, and recommended great local food and attractions. The only thing to note is that this hotel is actually located in Fuli Bay. It's separated from Xiangshui Bay by a narrow river – or rather, a sea channel. It looks like it's only a few hundred meters away, but you can't cross it directly; you have to take a detour of nearly a kilometer. The sand at Xiangshui Bay is finer, while the sand right outside the hotel is a bit coarser.

This hotel is located in Lingshui Clear Water Bay, and the location is excellent; it's right across the road from the beach. The hotel is very large, and the rooms are spacious too. I'd like to thank the front desk for upgrading my room type, which now offers a view of the large swimming pool. The hotel boasts a super-sized swimming pool, a kids' club, a gym, and more. My kids absolutely loved it; they swam to their hearts' content and had a fantastic time. The breakfast was also very rich and diverse, featuring local specialties like Hainan noodles and Lingshui sour noodles. It's highly recommended, and I'll definitely be back to stay again!

The hotel boasts an excellent location, right by the beach, with just a few minutes' walk to the sand. The front desk and room service staff were incredibly warm and attentive. We were even given a complimentary upgrade to a room with a large balcony and a great sea view! Although some of the facilities are a bit dated, the overall value for money is high. The hotel breakfast offers a wide variety of options, catering to different tastes.

This is a great hotel. Our sea-view room offered stunning ocean views right from the window. The breakfast was decent. The large bed room is perfect for a family with two adults and one child. It's incredibly convenient to take the kids to the beach for swimming and digging in the sand, as it's practically right there. The hotel's off-season prices are reasonable, making it a good choice for those looking to travel during non-peak times.
