And now about this paradise in the South China Sea, tourists have heard around the world. Residents of the Far East and Siberia have long been healed here, curing diseases, and at the same time and basking in warm sunlight and clear sea water.

Guest reviews about rooms

It should be noted that the hotel Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 5 * (reviews of guests we will mention later in the article) previously really had the status of a five-star complex, apparently, for that there were reasons. Currently, the hotel has a fourth category. According to hotel guests, rooms require renovation and renovation of furniture. Unfortunately, not everyone is satisfied with the quality of work and the appearance of plumbing. Very often there are cases when tourists face breakdowns immediately after settling, so they are asked to move to the best apartments. The administration readily agrees, only to find the number in the best condition is very difficult. Our compatriots, as a rule, settle in small three-story houses called bungalows. The main multi-storey building is occupied by the Chinese holidaymakers themselves.

It can not be said that the numbers are quite bad, but they require cosmetic repairs. But the guests of the hotel are unanimously negative about the plumbing.

In the complex, most of the rooms are for some reason equipped with single beds, so rooms with double furniture are rather difficult to find. Such a problem can be solved independently, moving the beds, if it allows you to make the situation.

The location of the complex and its territory

The Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) has a good location. The beach of the complex is only three minutes walk away. The distance from Sania Phoenix International Airport is no more than ten kilometers. But to the railway station - fifteen kilometers. Free parking is available at the complex.

Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 4 * has a very large and beautiful territory, separated by a road. In the courtyard of the complex there are a lot of trees, flowers, greenery. A piece of the complex can be called charming ponds with real goldfish. Creeks are not very clean, but they create a special atmosphere.

Hotel Infrastructure

Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 4 * has two swimming pools on the territory. One of them is open for guests until late at night, near it there is a bar. When it gets dark, people move from the beach to the sunbeds near the pond, and they continue their rest there. Swim in the pool by the light of the lanterns is incredibly romantic. Above the water a beautiful tree grows, the flowers of which constantly fall into the pool. Bathing among such beauty is something amazing.

In addition, the complex has tennis courts, a massage parlor, a golf course, a beauty salon, a fitness center, five conference rooms and a business center. Dry cleaning and laundry services are available for a fee. On the territory of the complex there are several shops, where, if necessary, you can buy everything you need for recreation. In addition, around the hotel there are many shops with souvenirs and local cafes, where you can delicious dinner if you get bored with eating in the complex.

On the coast, active tourists can always do water sports, try new hobbies. For this there are all conditions.

On the third floor of the main building there is a medical center, whose services can be used for a fee.

Near the Palm Beach Resort Spa Hotel 4 * (Sanya) there is a cemetery. Currently, it is not operational, and from a distance resembles a square. However, not all vacationers like this neighborhood. After all, people come to relax and escape from problems.

Sea beach

Palm Beach Resort Spa Hotel 4 * (Sanya) has its own beach. In general, the location of the complex is its highlight, because not every hotel is on the first line. A small inconvenience is that you need to cross the road to get ashore, but it's not so difficult. The hotel's beach is sandy, there are never waves on the sea. Umbrellas and sun beds on the coast are completely free.

Speaking about the hotel Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya), reviews of which, by the way, are quite contradictory, it is worth noting the presence on the shore of small gnats. According to tourists, insects live in the grass on the beach and behave quite aggressively, because of which on the bodies of tourists there are many bites. Unfortunately, the mosquito is not affected by any local creams, it is impossible to get rid of it. Apparently, there are periods when insects appear, and then disappear somewhere. The rest of the coast is very clean and beautiful. The water is warm and transparent.

On the shore there are always many fishermen waiting for their catch. Bathe in the sea, you can see flocks of shrimp, small fish, squid. There are small jellyfish in the water, but they are not afraid, because they do not stint at all.

Dining at the hotel

I want to pay special attention to nutrition. When buying a tour in the Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya Bay) you only buy breakfast. As for dinner and dinner, they can also be booked at the hotel. And it is possible to have a good and inexpensive refreshment in local cafes, of which there are many around the hotel. The food there is quite normal and tasty, so you can safely use it. Due to the fact that the resort is near the sea, in all establishments prepare a lot of dishes from seafood. This is definitely worth using. Tourists advise to take a closer look at the choice of dishes, because the Chinese are preparing all sorts of sea reptiles, which we are not accustomed to eating. In the variety of local food, you can choose something to taste.

For breakfast, the hotel serves European and Chinese cuisine, as well as seafood. If you do not like local food, then you can choose for yourself more acceptable options. Some tourists believe that the morning meal is very monotonous, while others emphasize that they are quite satisfied with the food. Apparently, individual preferences are affected.

The standard breakfast at the hotel includes: sausages, duck (cooked according to a local recipe), vegetables, fruits, meat dishes, cereal, yoghurt.

In general, vacationers are satisfied with food. It is wonderful that the Chinese carefully prepare not only their traditional dishes, but also European ones, since not all guests will master local gastronomic delights. Still, European food is more common for our compatriots.

Quality of service

The Chinese are very interesting people. They react very sensitively to smiles and kindness. It is for this reason that they are better for those guests who are not aggressive. This point is worth considering. Unfortunately, in a place like the hotel Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya, China), there is a staff that speaks only Chinese. But this is not a hotel problem, but, rather, a local foundation. In China, it is not customary to use English at all. However, our compatriots do not have problems communicating, because among the staff of the complex there are people who perfectly understand the Russian language.

By the way, in China, quite a lot of local residents speak and understand our language.

Accommodation in the hotel is quick. In general, the service is very good. Except for the fact that the rooms should be renovated for a long time, the Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya), which we are reviewing about, is a decent place to relax. Staff daily clean rooms and change towels. It is very pleasant that in the apartments there are special beach sets: bags with towels. It is very convenient and practical.

In the Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 5 * is accepted to take a deposit for the room when settling. Money is then returned when people are going to leave, if the apartments are rented out in order, and all services are paid.

Entertainment

Hotel Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) offers its guests the following attractions: bowling, billiards, tennis, massage, volleyball, jacuzzi. On the coast of tourists expect a variety of water attractions.

Complex Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 5 * (the description of the hotel was given earlier) is located in a quiet place, on the beach. And at the same time it's very easy to get to the city center. About fifteen minutes walk is the fruit market, where you can buy all kinds of sweets. Near the hotel there are cafes and eateries, in which deliciously prepared. The center can be reached by taxi (it will cost about 30 yuan) or by bus.

There is a photo studio on site. In it you can pay for a photo session, and then you will get beautiful pictures against the background of local landscapes, and not embellished with photoshop.

What is good about the Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 5 *? Guest reviews contain a lot of praise for the coast. Tourists annually rush into these regions for the sake of the sea. In recent years, the rich deep-water world of the South China Sea has attracted many divers from all over the world. There are a number of reasons for this. Visibility under water in these parts is more than twenty meters, and diving can be done all year round, thanks to a mild climate. True, sometimes to the coast reach weak echoes of southern storms, and then divers for a couple of days inferior to the vastness of the sea surfers.

Shopping

Resting in Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 5 *, you must certainly see the main attractions of Hainan Island. The Celestial Empire has something to show its guests.

In addition, tourists can make some purchases. It has become a tradition to lead from the island rock crystal, tea, pearls. Especially among tourists enjoying the popularity of porcelain, woodcarving, silk, feng shui symbols, Buddhist souvenirs. Such souvenirs are sold in many shops and shops. And for serious purchases you can go to the capital of Haikou. There, on the street Hayduxdunlu, there are the most prestigious shops, and on the market (at the cape) you can buy different art fakes. In Sanya, the best shops are located on Liberation Street, which is in the center.

sights

Near the city (23 kilometers), on the shore is a park with a beautiful name "Edge of the World". It attracts tourists with beautiful scenery. On a sandy beach, there are blocks of bizarre shapes. Each stone has its own name: "a stone that supports the heavens", "a stone is a refuge of a bachelor", "a broken heart". "Boulder - wealth" is even depicted on a local banknote (2 yuan). And on one ten-meter stone there is even an inscription saying that this is the place where the extreme southern point of China is located - "The Edge of the World".

No less interesting for tourists is the aquarium, in which you can get acquainted with the life of two hundred varieties of exotic inhabitants of the sea depths. Here you can see a show of crocodiles and sea lions, trained parrots. The most courageous guests can feed the reptiles and take a picture with them. On the territory of the aquarium live all species of feathered southern China. Here you can see the unique turtles, whose age is more than six hundred years.

In eighty kilometers from the city there is an island of monkeys, on which dwells more than two thousand primates. A cable car is stretched to the island through the strait. Tourists from the cabins of the funicular can admire the sea from a bird's eye view. On the island you can see not only the animals, but also see the monkey circus.

Not far from the city (about forty kilometers) is the largest center of Buddhism in Asia at the foot of the Nanshan Mountain. It was opened in 1997, its area is more than fifty kilometers square. Tourists will certainly like not only the oldest temple (it was restored), but also a large landscape park.

Very popular with tourists is the ethnic settlement of the people of Li and Miao. These aborigines lived here long before the Chinese. They still live in the thickets of tropical forests in the very center of the island, keeping their foundations and life unchanged.

Near the thermal radon springs is the famous botanical garden, in which all the tropical plants of China are collected. Their total number exceeds one thousand copies.

Thirty kilometers from Sanya is a museum of butterflies, which is more like a piece of tropical forest, in which flocks a variety of different insects. The spectacle is simply amazing.

It is simply impossible to list all the sights within the article. On the island, there are really many of them, and many are located near such a resort as Sanya.

Treatment

Do not forget that the island is famous for its treatment. For a long time here heal gastric diseases, osteochondrosis, rheumatism, hypertension, skin and pulmonary diseases. In Sanya vacationers can undergo a course of procedures in SanYiTang - the center of modern medicine. Resting at the Palm Beach Resort Spa, tourists get courses and go through the necessary treatment.

Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) 4 *: reviews

The hotel has a very good location. On the one hand, it is built far from the city bustle and noise, and on the other - from it it's easy enough to get to the city center and the main sights.

The main advantage of the complex is its location on the coastline, which is very convenient for a sea resort. The hotel is more suitable for families with children. Young people looking for endless get-togethers and nightly entertainment, maybe a little bored here. Although it can not be said that there are no nightclubs here.

A beautiful clean sea and fine sand will make the holiday unforgettable. Especially since you will not be bored here. Exotic nature and attractions will not leave tourists indifferent.

The food in the hotel is quite acceptable. But the numbers, according to tourists, have long been in need of repair. Although, when coming to China to rest, hardly anyone will sit in the apartment. Therefore, you can close your eyes to the hotel's situation. If you take into account the ratio of "price-quality", then the complex is fully consistent with it. It is not necessary to initially exaggerate the requirements for the hotel. I would also like to note the fact that the complex has a well-groomed beautiful territory with creeks, lagoons and pools, bridges. During the vacation you are surrounded by a flowering garden and a sea of flowers. And near the sun shines the sea, what could be better? There is everything that makes the island a popular resort and clinic not only among the Chinese, but also foreign tourists. Every year, the sea with sandy beaches attract thousands of tourists from all over the world.

Instead of an afterword

If you are planning a trip to China, Palm Beach Resort Spa (Sanya) may well be a place of vacation. However, it should be understood that this place is suitable for a quiet and quiet family holiday. Do not believe in hope, see glamorous hotels and promenades on the island. If you are used to luxury, then you should not go here. Here, certainly, lovers of exotic and wide sandy beaches. And there is no need to talk about the abundance of sights. To see at least a small part of them, you need to spend more than one vacation. Therefore, lovers of the sea and exotic can safely recommend a holiday on the island of Hainan. You will get a sea of impressions and learn a lot about the culture of China, which has recently become more popular among tourists.
