Blonsai Tropical Rainforest Holiday Manor (Baoting Yanoda Branch) Reviews

Mixed review. Overall wasn't bad, but the listing/photos are misleading and I wouldn't have stayed here knowing the experience in advance. Positives: - Good service from staff - Walking distance (10 mins) from Yanuo forest - Short taxi (15 mins) to Binlang ethnic village Negatives: - Mold in shower + cockroach in hairdryer bag - Photos and description misleading, we booked the Spring Bud Germination Double Bed Room but were told it doesn't come with a pool upon arrival so were 'upgraded' to the Autumn Rhyme pool, which also didn't come with a private pool as is listed (there is a shared pool available) - Did not see any other guests during our stay, feels very remote and isolated - Photos were slightly misleading; e.g., there is no private pool for the villas

The location was perfect for visiting the park. I have nothing else positive to say about the place. Loud guest shouting outside our window and balcony kept us up.

From the photographs we were really looking for to our trip to bulongsai but unfortunately it did not meet our expectations. It is a shame because you can tell that when the place first opened it must have been truly beautiful but it has run down since then. The room itself is modern and the TV is great with lots of free foreign films, the maid is kind and topped up our water and towels everyday but it could be cleaner. There was a lot of hair and dust in the room and the pool was a little dirty. The main pool was a little dirty too and the pool guy just seemed to sit their on his phone all day long. The kitchen waitresses were lovely and thank you to the receptionist for helping us book a taxi but the overall impression is that everyone is tired and not bothered by the state of the hotel. The scenery is beautiful but even the paddy fields are a little unkept. Finding food is a mission. The hotel restaurant is nice and there are a few little bare minimum shops on the site but be aware that the location is in the middle of nowhere far away from the beaches of Sanya. There is a little petting zoo and it seems like a good place for children. The hotel itself was advertised as a villa but really you just get a room like any other hotel. The hotel is mixed in with a rural village so be aware if you are foreign you will get a lot of strange looks and stared at often but on the whole everyone is friendly. I have mixed feelings about this place. It just needs rejuvenating which would not be too hard if the staff were a little more proactive and if there were more things in the area and food options it would be better. Yanoda park is not far from the hotel, I'd say if you're only planning to stay a couple of nights it's ideal but a week was far too long for us. Oh and the breakfast was good overall if you like Chinese food. The zhongzi was my favourite.

We only stayed here one night (we were visiting Yanoda Rainforest Park) and we were pretty tired from the day’s activities so we weren’t able to get a strong impression of the property. However, it did seem quite nice compared to some other places in the area, and the on-site restaurant was a plus. All of the buildings look fairly new and the style of the rooms is neat. We saw a pool on the first floor, but it’s not clear if it was a private pool or accessible to all guests. There are some small shops in the compound selling drinks and snacks that are open pretty late. A plus of this property is that it’s close to the park, though you should definitely get a car to take you to the ticket office since Yanoda Park has a very long driveway at the property entrance.

+ Beautiful hotel complex + very comfortable beds + good room - generally a bit unkempt - swimming pool unkempt (almost unusable) - no hot water in the shower

The location is just opposite Yanoda, especially suitable for bringing children. The hotel is in a village, with a lot of things for children to play. The breakfast is a bit poor.

The price booked on Ctrip was half the price of **, and it didn't include breakfast, which was really unreasonable. The fishing included in the package was at 9:40 in the morning, but it was not clearly marked. I went to Binglang Valley in the morning and couldn't go there, which was a waste.

The hotel room is clean. We stayed on the second floor and it was not damp and there was no odor. The room facilities were good. The air around the hotel was fresh. There was a farmhouse restaurant for dinner in a few minutes' drive. It was very close to Yanoda. The breakfast for the high-priced stay was too ordinary. One for each person on the first day, and the only dish was pickled mustard.

On the first day of our stay, this B&B is in the village. Since we arrived at night, there was no light in the whole building. It was pitch dark. It felt like a **exploration. After checking in, we gave feedback to the front desk and they said they would arrange for someone to fix it. We went out for dinner, but when we came back, it was still a **exploration. The most frustrating thing was that the door lock was not sure if it was low on power or something else. It beeped every three minutes, adding another touch of weirdness to the night. I slept very badly that night. On the second day, I seriously suspected that the fruits and vegetables were cut with the same knife for breakfast. On the third day, I decisively gave up breakfast and went out to eat. Finally, the corridor was equipped with lights and the door lock was solved, but to be honest, I probably won't come again.

The room is clean, there is a swimming pool, and the experience is quite good

I have booked this hotel very early, and I am looking forward to it with my children. The hotel steward contacted me in advance and answered all the questions I raised. It is really considerate. I am looking forward to departure. I initially considered taking a train to Hainan Island, but the train tickets were not available during the summer vacation. It was hard to find a ticket, so I took a plane to Sanya instead. Then a typhoon came and the flight was cancelled. A few days later, the return train, 12306, was also informed that it was cancelled. I had no choice but to stay at this hotel next time I came to Hainan Island.

Not long after placing the order, the hotel manager called to confirm the itinerary, and then created a large group with people from various departments, which was very convenient~ The place was also easy to find. The reception center and guest rooms are all ethnic-style buildings, which are very ornamental~ Breakfast is served according to the seat, and the combination is also very balanced~ It is a rural home suitable for relaxation

The hotel environment is very good. You can see the fields outside from the room. There is a swimming pool in front of the room. You can hear the croaking of chickens and the croaking of frogs while lying in the room. Coming here from the city, it feels like being in a paradise, which makes people feel happy. The room is also clean. It is worth recommending and deserves praise!

The room is average, the price is not worth it, the breakfast is also bad
