Enter your dates to see prices and availability for the best Sanya hotels.
Sanya is China’s popular tropical escape—palm-fringed beaches, coconut in hand by day, and seafood feasts by night, all with a side of duty-free shopping. It’s like Hainan turned up the heat and dialed down the hustle.
Phoenix Airport (SYX) is just 14 km west of downtown. Airport buses (¥15-25) run until the last flight, with routes to Dadonghai or Yalong Bay. Taxis (¥30-50) are quicker but agree on the meter. For late arrivals, the airport has a 24-hour rest area in T1.

Sanya’s buses (¥2-10) cover major beaches, but ride-hailing apps (Didi) are more flexible for hopping between resorts.
Yalong Bay is where the fancy resorts are – think infinity pools, private beaches, and Russian tourists working on their lobster-red tans. Perfect if you want to feel bougie, but be ready to pay resort prices for everything (yes, even that watery cocktail).
Dadonghai is the backpacker/young crowd spot. Cheap guesthouses across from the beach, street BBQ joints that stay open till 3am, and enough Russians to make you question if you're still in China. Gets rowdy on weekends.
Sanya Bay is where local families go. Long public beach, cheaper hotels, and that classic "Chinese seaside resort" vibe – think loud uncles drinking beer shirtless at noon. Not glamorous, but real.
