Absolutely loved this place. Beautiful hotel in a nice, quite area of Sanya, which is cosy, but only a short cap ride away from the city center.
To me, downtown Sanya is not the most beautiful place in world, but that doesn´t matter, because you can enjoy your time in this beautiful hotel. The hotel is in good shape and a tropical paradise. Nice open setting (you can feel a warm breeze almost everywhere), pool area (which was almost totally empty all the time) and super friendly staff. And yes, very few people speak English. But don´t forget your in China, this is nothing new. With a little smile and some gestures every problem can be solved.
Breakfast buffet was great, with a nice choice of asian and western tastes. For dinner there are some nice sea food restaurants down by the water front, but nobody speaks English. We had the concierge write some things down on paper, so we used that for ordering ;-)
We would love to come again...
