A solitary tropical sway time in a private pool villa at a Sanya hotel
🏝️ This trip to Sanya was all about vacationing, skipping the complex itinerary and fun activities, just wanting to quietly stay in the hotel for a while, so I chose this private pool villa with strong privacy. Lie down under the sun and enjoy the leisurely tropical sway.

🏝️ As a prime location in Yalong Bay, this is a relatively cost-effective experience. The hotel facilities are not the newest, but the stay was okay, and the service was good. Let's give an overall review below.
🌟 Room
The facilities are not new but the room is quite large, with a South Seas style. The bathroom is spacious with a separate wet and dry area. Outside the room is a private courtyard with tropical trees and their reflections, and there is another separate room outside the courtyard for resting and meeting guests, which is nice with a TV and air conditioning. Sliding doors in the room open directly to the private pool, which is nice to swim in alone at night with the lights on. There is also a gazebo and lounge chairs in the courtyard. On the other side of the pool is an outdoor shower, and behind the shower is a door that leads directly to the bathroom in the room, which is a nice design.
🌟 Outdoors
The entire hotel is very large, and it takes a long time to walk around, so shuttle services take you to various places. The hotel is like a park, very beautiful, and they offered a photo shoot upon check-in, which we completed at several spots within the hotel. In addition to the private pool, there are also public pools and outdoor play and water areas. Constantly shuttling through the hotel, there are more surprises, like finding a hammock, which is really comfortable to lie in. I was amazed to find that the winding paths in the hotel are really beautiful, perfect for taking photos.
🌟 Service
Overall, the service is good, the front desk is very enthusiastic, and check-in was quick. The breakfast has a good variety, and this time the room booking included a Western meal, which was eaten in the Chinese restaurant, quite puzzling, haha. I particularly like cold drinks, so I always needed room service to bring ice, which was quite fast. If you order takeout to the hotel, you have to pick it up at the front desk yourself. I had a spa session, and the technique was quite good, and the environment was nice too.
🌟 Location
The location is excellent, in the core area of Yalong Bay. Although it's not directly by the sea, just across the hotel and down is the seaside. The advantage of not being by the sea is the privacy and quietness. There is a food plaza 100 meters diagonally across from the hotel with plenty of dining options, and it's lively at night. The hotel also offers a daily free shuttle to the duty-free shop, so you can go directly for shopping.
🏝️ Overall, the experience was quite good. Although the facilities are not very new, the privacy, cost-effectiveness, and service are all quite good.
