Guest UserThe room was upgraded for free, the breakfast was healthy and delicious, and the facilities were good. The most important swimming pool is great. In the morning, I watched the hotel staff carefully clean the swimming pool for almost 2 hours, and then went in for a happy swim. The sea and sky were all the same color, lawns, woods, beaches, and sea water. Compared to the kind of seaside villas with unobstructed views , the progressive depth of different landscapes, and the sense of envelopment brought by the mountains and the sea, let people blend into the embrace of nature in a very safe state, and return to the most authentic state,,, through the woods When I saw the local people sitting or standing on the rocks on the seaside in the distance, Zheng Zhihua's sailors instantly came to my mind. The freedom and power shown in this picture will also become a kind of spiritual nourishment that will nourish the future. Life, this is one of the meanings of travel.

Anonymous UserThe hotel's overall hardware facilities truly live up to its five-star standards—grand in environment with comprehensive amenities, and the service maintains the consistent quality of the Hilton brand. As a hot spring-themed hotel, the soaking experience is top-notch, and the resort vibe is spot on~
⚠️ Check-in & Stay Tips to Avoid Pitfalls
However, having stayed here during the National Day golden week, I'd like to share a few genuine thoughts:
1️⃣ Allow extra time for check-in: It was exceptionally busy during the holiday. After finishing the paperwork, it took nearly an hour before our room was ready. I’d recommend staggering your check-in time or communicating your arrival time in advance.
2️⃣ Room location to avoid: We were assigned the very last room at the end of the hallway on the ground floor. While the long walk wasn't a huge deal, lying in bed made it painfully obvious to notice the low-frequency vibration noise from outdoor equipment, which really took a toll on sleep quality 😴 I suggest proactively asking at the front desk if you can be assigned a room away from the mechanical rooms.
3️⃣ Hot spring experience: The soaking experience itself is great, seeing as this is the hotel's main highlight. I recommend setting aside plenty of time to fully unwind and enjoy it.
Despite a few minor hiccups with the check-in process and room location this time around, the hotel's hardware quality and hot spring experience are still well worth recognizing. If you visit outside of peak season and manage to snag a good room, the overall resort experience should be much better~ Just remember to make room location a top priority when you go!

Spent a luxurious getaway at Capella Sanya — and yes, it truly lives up to its reputation as Sanya’s top-tier luxury resort, with outstanding facilities and service.
As someone extremely particular about bedding, I was blown away by Capella’s beds: incredibly comfortable, highly breathable, and wrapped in silky-smooth fabric. Even the turndown service reflects meticulous attention to detail — a soothing pillow mist placed neatly on the nightstand, and all our clothes thoughtfully folded and arranged upon returning to the room during the day.
Breakfast here is arguably the best in Sanya: abundant in variety *and* consistently delicious — you can genuinely taste the quality. If breakfast matters to you (and it should!), Capella is an absolute no-brainer — you won’t be disappointed. Afternoon tea and evening cocktails are also included, making for an effortlessly relaxed, indulgent stay.
I happened to visit during Halloween, and the resort went all out with themed activities — from exquisitely crafted Halloween pastries to lively, immersive experiences that delighted both kids and adults alike. The kids’ club offered a rich lineup of engaging activities; on hot days, creative craft sessions were especially fun for little ones.
My butler, Chris, was exceptional — thoughtful, proactive, and impeccably professional. He kindly upgraded us to a room with breathtaking tropical rainforest views and my favorite sloped-roof design, instantly elevating the vacation vibe. His responsiveness was outstanding (any seasoned traveler knows how vital that is!). When my child accidentally left an inflatable pool ring by the pool — late at night — Chris personally searched for it and returned it to us. Truly heartwarming! And at checkout, he surprised us with charming local souvenirs — a delightful, thoughtful touch.
Capella Sanya’s cultural narrative draws inspiration from the ancient Silk Road, resulting in a uniquely captivating East-meets-West aesthetic throughout the property. The resort also thoughtfully integrates local Hainan culture — even the adorable monkey plush toy we received featured authentic Li ethnic motifs. My stay was too short to dive deeper, but I’m already planning my next visit — there’s so much more to explore!

Guest UserSmart Hotel is really good value for money! The front desk service attitude is good and professional answers to various questions. The room is clean and tidy, and the smart facilities make it very convenient, especially the projection equipment, which allows me to enjoy the movie-watching experience of a private cinema. There is also free parking, which is really thoughtful. I will choose here next time I travel!

I originally booked through Douyin, but they raised the price last minute because I didn't make a reservation. So I ended up booking through Ctrip instead. The room, while a bit dated, was still quite clean and spacious. The only downside was that the beach was full of dead fish, which caused a faint, fishy smell to permeate the hotel. I'm not sure if it was due to a typhoon, but it's strange because other beaches I visited didn't have any dead fish.

True to Marriott's standards, the quality is reliable. The resort grounds are expansive, featuring stunning tropical gardens at every turn. The ocean view room offers a wide, open horizon, and the bathroom features a dry-wet separation design where you can even enjoy an ocean view while soaking in the tub. The kids' club offers a rich variety of activities, making traveling with little ones completely hassle-free. The beach is very close to the guest rooms, just a few steps away. The breakfast at the restaurant is fresh, with a great variety of fruits and hot dishes. The staff provide attentive service and patiently resolve any issues. Highly recommended for family vacations.

Guest UserThe hotel room was huge, probably over 30 square meters, truly enormous. The service was excellent, with very patient staff who met all our needs. The room was also very comfortable, with a soft mattress and good soundproofing, ensuring a quiet sleep. The room amenities were a major highlight, offering everything imaginable: disposable toilet seat covers, disposable paper cups, soap, disposable razors, and more. This was beyond my expectations for a room at around 100 yuan. The surrounding area is conveniently located with plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options. My parents had a wonderful trip and a great stay here. They said they'd stay here again next time they travel.

The room is big, very clean and tidy, the boss is very enthusiastic, the environment is very good, there is a commercial street nearby, it is very convenient to eat and drink, it takes less than ten minutes to walk to the beach, and there is a swimming pool downstairs. This weather is very suitable for playing in the water. If I didn't have to go back to work, I would be reluctant to leave. Hahahaha. Not bad. Recommended

AllenThis is our fourth time in Lingshui, and this time we chose the Pool-Access Twin Room at Hotel Indigo. Traveling as a family, this room type is absolutely perfect for water-loving families. Step right out of the room and you're at the pool. The circulating water is exceptionally clean, and the surrounding greenery offers great privacy and blocks the wind (even when it's windy outside, you can't feel it inside, and night swimming is very cozy). Behind the hotel is a fine white sand beach, featuring lush greenery and grassy lawns in between that make for fantastic photos. Right next door is the Westin. Unlike the Westin's beach, Indigo's beach is completely free of commercial activities—no little tourist trains, no hawkers pushing jet skis. It's very quiet and comfortable, and the beach loungers are free of charge. Staff members even provide complimentary blankets.
As soon as my hotel booking was confirmed, a butler added me on WeChat. You could reach out to her for anything. She checked in advance about the number of guests, including adults and children, and thoughtfully prepared amenities based on guest preferences. There were exclusive supplies for kids, and brand-new flip-flops in the room for trips to the beach. Overall, communication was smooth, and her tone was so gentle and pleasant.
At check-in, the kids were given beach sand-play toys that they could keep. The minibar and snack bar were also complimentary for the first round. The facilities are very new, and there are even Type-C charging ports by the bedside. At breakfast, hand-brewed fresh coffee is proactively offered. The kids' club is quite interesting, featuring various novel snacks that the kids loved. The only area for improvement is perhaps the limited variety (likely to avoid waste since occupancy wasn't at peak).
The hotel has four pools: an infinity pool, a kids' pool, a very fun lazy river where you can spot huge snails on the walls, and the direct-access pool at our room. Both in the corridors and outdoors, there are fascinating handcrafted artworks, water features, precious plants, and well-staggered walkways. The design sense is simply top-notch.
To sum it up: considering the price, overall experience, facilities, and service, this hotel offers incredible value for money.
A special thank you to Amber (Xiao Fu) for her patient and thoughtful service over the past few days! Looking forward to coming back!

This is my second time back at Kimpton Shimei Bay within six months. Honestly, as a hotel in Hainan, this is truly the first one that has ever made me want to make a special trip back twice in half a year 🌊
Having stayed at countless cookie-cutter mega-resorts in Hainan, I’ve grown to prefer these boutique, ”small yet refined” hidden gems. There are no bustling crowds, no waiting in line for elevators or meals, and the entire pace of the vacation slows right down. It’s the ultimate spot for young people looking to truly unplug and unwind in peace.
The hotel’s aesthetic is on point from start to finish. From the lobby and public areas to the infinity pool and ocean-view terrace—even the lighting and shadows in the hallways are so textured and chic—every snap is Instagram-worthy 📸 You don't need to hunt down popular photo spots; just strolling around and clicking the shutter yields vacation shots brimming with atmosphere. For photo lovers, this is a massive bonus.
I have to give a special shoutout to our host, Steven! 👍 The service was attentive yet perfectly understated. From the pre-arrival communication to various minor requests during our stay, responses were lightning-fast. He anticipated so many details in advance that we didn't have to worry about a thing. He never disrupted our holiday flow, yet always appeared right when we needed him. That delicate balance of service was just nailed to perfection.
What really got to me, though, was the attention to detail. The in-room amenities and bedding are of top-notch quality, and you can feel the thoughtfulness behind so many subtle designs and small objects. It’s not the kind of resort vibe built on grand, massive facilities; instead, it tucks ”exquisiteness” into every single experience, truly perfecting the art of the boutique stay.
Among all the hotels in Hainan, it might not be the most famous or the largest in scale, but it's the kind of place that wins you over completely the moment you stay. Low-key, textured, with stellar service, it effortlessly maximizes that relaxed, effortless holiday state of mind.
I genuinely recommend this to anyone who wants to skip the crowds and just find a cozy spot to lie back and watch the ocean. Next time I'm in Lingshui, I will definitely choose to stay here again ✨
