Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
I stayed with my husband at the Pearl River Garden Hotel seven nights during the Christmas 2007. I definitely can recommend the hotel since it is in a very good location and the rooms are clean and nice. The beach is just in front of the hotel and there are sunbeds and sunshades reserved for the hotel guests. But be quick – the Russian tourists “reserve” the sunbeds with their towels early in the morning. If you prefer quieter scene (the beach is quite lively), the pool area is okay too.
We stayed in the highest floor almost in the middle of the hotel – so the views were great! So do pay some extra for the Deluxe Sea View Room (floors 7-8), which according to my understanding have been newly decorated in 2006. And take the breakfast, which is a mixture of Western and Chinese food (at least I always consider that a good breakfast is a big plus).
Not all of the hotel personnel speak English, but there is always at least one person at the reception, who can understand Western letters/writing and speak English.
We booked our hotel room through eLong (a Chinese travel agency, [--]). We also booked our flights from Shanghai to Sanya through eLong. They have English speaking personnel and the service is good. Also, the prices they offered seemed lower compared to the other agencies.
In general, Sanya is a good place to spend your holiday, if you just want to relax and take it easy on the beach. Definitely different “beach culture” than in Europe – the Chinese holidaymakers enjoy the beach life at maximum. They bury each other in the sand and swim all day through. And one thing to add, when they crowd the near restaurants they generally wear Hawaiian outfits (shirts and shorts with the same pattern). Loved it all – Sanya and the people!
But when coming to Sanya, be prepared to that very few people speak English. Generally, there is one person per restaurant who can speak English (and not very well normally). So it is good, if you take an English-Chinese dictionary with you – then you can just point the relevant word in Chinese letters and you will be understood! We used the Mandarin Phrasebook by Lonely Planet, which was handy considering its size and its uselfull vocabulary.

We stayed in this hotel during our 3 week trip around China and we were quite surprised how clean the rooms were! Unfortunately our room was facing the construction site but other than that is was more than ok. The hotel has it's beach but it's located through the overpass bridge. Nevertheless, the sea was so beautiful and warm so we even didn't notice that little inconvenience. The main disappointment was the breakfast - if you come too early or too late the food will be cold. There are a lot of restaurants and bars around the place but not all of them will have menus in English.

All of them ay. Relaxed in this nice hotel from December 9 to 18, 2024. We were in China for the first time will definitely go again, liked everything except one there were no sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach, but on the beach there are cafes they have poofs sunbed chairs just need to buy something to drink or eat from them and all day you can use the place from about 20 yuan. The weather was good, swimming in the sea. Took a two-day tour to an embankment flower island, it's like Dubai palm tree jumeirah, this island has a water park, thermals, all sorts of shows featuring sea animals, in general it won't be boring. The city itself also liked, people are friendly, the streets and beach are clean, there are few butts but where they are not. About the hotel the location is excellent, breakfast and dinners are great, for breakfast many different meats, delicious soups, coffee machines, pastries fruit, rolls, vegetables fresh and steamed, lunch we did not want, dined in many places from 12-15 yuan dumplings, a choice in bulk from grasshoppers 10 yuan to crabs 300 yuan, beer can from 10 yuan for three cans at Oleg's back of the hotel he has and tea and excursions he even at night loaned us beer. We liked it, we'll come back again definitely, we'll devote more time to treatment, went to Angela at her place and the pharmacy tour clinic prices and quality satisfied us, is near the pineapple, near the hotel 600 meters. Even the guides told us that we have the best hotel, have more expensive and even better hotels but they are not on the first line in Dadonghai, or they have no beach.

We're resting in this hotel now. The hotel isn't bad, of course there are cons but it's 4K so the cons are justified. Breakfast is delicious, but it's monotonous for me. There's fruit and vegetables and booze, but every day it's the same. Different kinds of eggs and omelets with fillings to choose from. Rice, fried dumplings and their Chinese dishes. You can't stay hungry. The staff is polite and smiley. Room's not big, cleaning daily. Rooms are better taken even they have sea view and balcony. The hotel has no grounds. The beach is public, lifeguards are constantly kicking big waves out of the water, but this time in this bay is the norm. The pools are small. There is also no clinic in the hotel, but the guide will book a free transfer to any of the 2 clinics. And they'll drive you to treatments for free as well. Generally happy with vacation, though much has changed.

There haven't been any reviews here for a long time, it needs to be fixed!
Everything that is written in the reviews below was written about the hotel BEFORE the restoration. It has been rebuilt and is now under the auspices of the Chinese government and is possibly one of the best hotels I have ever been to.
About the pros: 1. A large area inside the hotel with huge children's rooms (a workshop with tools for boys, a sewing workshop for girls, slide pools with balls for kids). Restaurants inside the hotel (hot pot with coconut chicken, buffet restaurant and some other one). 2. Clean rooms, cleaning every day, changing towels, etc. They wash the floor and even the carpets in the hallway. 3. Rich breakfast, you won't leave hungry. Scrambled eggs of various types, ramen, a lot of baked goods, a lot of fruit. For children - free cotton candy and marmalade. 4. Directly from the hotel, from the 2nd floor, you get to the beach - just go down the escalator. 5. Near the hotel there is a beautiful green park, a convenience store, a coffee shop and a coffee shop. A little further is the pineapple and winter shopping center. You can easily go to the city by bus. 6. Free transfer at any time upon request to the Rainbow TCM center.
There is only one minus: 1. There are no sunbeds on the beach :(

The hotel is clean, in-room daily cleaning , breakfast is rich but monotonous . But we encountered a problem - the room we got near the hotel staff room , in which very often the staff gathered and smoked (sometimes even at night) , all the smoke and smell came to our room , which was impossible to be there . Complaints about the reception didn't help , the staff after complaints run in different directions , but after an hour already stand and smoke .

Great hotel! Very clean in the rooms, clean linen towels, bathrobes. Convenient access to the sea. Very responsive staff. The hotel has Russian-speaking representatives of travel companies to whom you can always ask questions.

Our experience at this hotel is highly disappointing. We arrived quite late (due to a plane delay) to the doorman sleeping on the luggage carrier. He opened his eyes a wink and went back to sleep! Most of the lights were off and we did not feel very welcome but I thought that was just because it was so late. However, each day when going the pool in the afternoon we also found the lights to be off in the resturant area. The hotel had an old smell too it but did seem clean. Our sheets however were spotted and not changed each day even though we do not leave the "do not change sheets" sign on the bed as directed. The day before we left our MP3 player and cell phone was stolen out of the bags in our room. When we reported the problem to the desk the only response we received was "we asked the manager, he has not received them". The manager never even came out to speak with us. It was only when we were being charged for the insurance fee later in the day upon towel return to receive our deposit back that any attention at all was paid to the problem. We questioned what the insurance was for since our items were stolen and the manager atleast came to ask a couple of questions. Just our phone number was taken incase they turned up. The grounds of the hotel are not bad and it has quite a nice view however we would not stay here again!

I live in China and I know what is "chinese standard". This hotel was over my expectations. The service is ok, the environment is quite and nice. The hotel is on the Beach and has privates Beach supplies. Every evening there is a big buffet for dinner.

Добрый день! В своем отзыве как раз об этом написала - фитнес-центр - это очень громко), скорее - комната для занятий физкультурой. Несколько неработающих тренажеров и две гантели.
За один сеанс - общий китайский массаж 90 мин - 170 юаней, игротерапия - 158 юаней, массаж с маской для лица 80 мин - 300 юаней, массаж для ног - 30 юаней. При заказе цикла процедур делают скидки.
Добрый день! Интернет зависит не столько от отеля, сколько от того как блокируют в целом связь на острове. Иногда даже Vpn не помогал. У нас только на ресепшн на 1м этаже ловил интернет.
"Rooms facing the beach and the pool are better but more expensive. If you take the rooms facing the back, they are a little cheaper but there is a lot of construction going on the back side, we even saw rats going around the buildings on the back. Construction going on everywhere in Sanya"
There are more places to choose from in the Sanya area.
