Shengyi Holiday Villa Hotel — Hotel in Sanya City

Fantastic Hotel for English Speaking Foreigners. This is one of the Best Hotels in Sanya. Unlike many Hotels Sanya Shengyi is a True 5 Star accommodation. The Location is absolutely Perfect right on the Beach pretty much in the centre of town. and also unlike other Hotels the rooms are exactly as described. The staff are amazing and friendly and helpful and the lady that did our room service was so helpful and friendly also. The Pool is great and the Lifeguards are such funny characters that we had to have photos with them. I highly recommend the 180 Degree Ocean view Rooms we spent so much time on the Balcony watching all the fun every day and night on the water front and in the Bay. we watched the light shows at night on Phonex Island from our balcony. The people who say you cant swim at the beach in town are wrong, this is not true. The only time swimming is not allowed at the beach here is during a Typhoon. All DiDi's are at most only 2 minutes away from this Hotel and this Hotel is perfectly located centrally to all Tourists sites and markets.We walked to so many shops and markets. On average most didi's charged us approx $3 Australian Dollars. We initially stayed at Dadonghai Beach area but did not like it as much as Sanya City as it is too expensive there and more Russian atmosphere than Chinese. In Sanya City the Chinese people were so friendly to us and very helpful. The food is also much better than at Dadonghai area and you get a taste of the real China. China is an amazing country so much better in every way than Australia.From our Hotel we had a easy Beach foreshore walk to watch the fishermen bring in their catches to sell to the Locals. My wife cried when we...

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Really friendly and polite staff, one spoke english as well for Foreigners that can't speak Chinese, plus the set up for our Daughter in the family suite was very thoughtful. She had sinks she could reach, cute panda toothbrushes delivered every day, her own themed cup, toys to play with, mini robe, her own bed all though she preferred the big one haha, shoes etc. That was the greatest plus with this hotel, she absolutely loved it because of those details. The view is beautiful as well, clean but old rooms I'd say, it was worn down quite a bit so maintaining the hotel is definitely something they would have to work on. Several Restaurants close by also for online delivery. The biggest downside with this hotel is the beach unfortunately. We chose this place because of a more quiet beach, we thought the least, but the water scooters/jet skies roaming around constantly forced us to take a taxi to the busy beaches. The smell of gas was horrible and very strong when the jet skies passed by as they are driving where everyone is swimming. Very unhealthy to breathe in and they are about 6-8 of them driving by all the time, nothing I would want anyone to breathe in and it is a safety concern, they could literally drive over you anytime. Later at night when they had all left the beach it was a great place for shell picking though. The more busy beaches have set up restrictions for these water jet skies, which prohibits them from driving there, therefore next time we go to Sanya we will choose one of the hotels around Yalong or Dadonghai. You constantly hear helicopters flying as well, but you sort of get...

Great location. The hotel is about 30 minutes by car from the airport. The Sanya Bay beach is a few minutes walk across the road from the hotel. There are many shops near the hotel and it’s a 10-minute walk from a supermarket. Also you can find a lot of (mostly local) restaurants around. The hotel itself has a nice restaurant where you can enjoy hot pot with a wide choice of fresh seafood.My room had an amazing sea view from the balcony. The seascape during the day, evening and night is different and it is just mesmerizing.The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Sharon from the hotel’s front desk knows English well. She provided me with a quick service by WeChat during my stay at the hotel, which is important for me as a foreigner. The furniture in the room is not new, but it’s equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable stay there during a vacation. Throughout my stay at the hotel, the room was clean and tidy. The cleaning staff were very attentive and pleasant.Considering the above, my rating for this hotel is excellent!I highly recommend to choose a sea view room to completely enjoy your...
