[2024 Huidong Stay] Travel Guide for Salt Crystal Hotel By RìChū (Updated Nov)
A new landmark hotel in Shuangyue Bay | My girlfriends all say I have great taste!
This Mid-Autumn Festival, I chose to travel to Shuangyue Bay in Huizhou. I compared several hotels before finally choosing the Sunrise Dongshan Sea Salt Crystal Hotel.
❗️The architecture isn't as square as other five-star hotels, but it has its own design sense and uniqueness. 🏘️ I couldn't help but take a few photos!
❗️We chose a family suite, which also has a dedicated play area. The important thing is that the balcony sliding door can be pushed all the way to the bottom, so it really is a large view of the sea!
❗️The hotel's own amusement facilities
Indoor children's playground + indoor fitness center + indoor children's handcraft area + outdoor infinity pool + outdoor water park + hot spring + beach + reef bar, etc...
❗️You can dine at the buffet restaurant on the first floor of the hotel 🍴. The dishes are rich, with salmon, seafood, Chinese and Western dishes, and there is also a Pinghai fried rice noodle, which is so delicious! ! !
As someone who goes to the sea several times a year, this hotel is worth N brushes 👍

Huizhou Sunrise Salt Crystal Hotel
Above is the Huizhou travel guide
When we came to Huizhou, we stayed at the Sunrise Salt Crystal Hotel and bought a package,
1. It includes tickets to Niutouling Scenic Area (Reef Bar), which is super photogenic. It's better to go to the Reef Bar around 4 o'clock to avoid the sun (we went at 2 o'clock and it was scorching hot), but the photos turned out great.
2. The package also includes access to the swimming pool, hot springs, and breakfast for two. There are seven hot spring pools (quite nice, we went during meal times so there weren't many people). The hotel's breakfast is very rich and varied, the most abundant hotel breakfast I've ever had.
However, the only downside of this hotel is that it hosts many tour groups of elderly people, so it was very crowded and the stay experience wasn't great. But the beautiful scenery makes up for it. Make sure to check the weather before you travel. Sunny days are best for photos.
If you want to see the sunrise, wake up at 6 AM. The sun rises around 6:30.

Huizhou Photo-Worthy Seaside Hotel | Photo Check-in Strategy
| Photo Check-in Strategy.🌊 A Yi visited Huizhou Shuangyue Bay during the Dragon Boat Festival and discovered a hidden gem hotel. The photo opportunities here are amazing, with many spots to check in, and it's easy to take beautiful pictures.
📝Below is the photo check-in strategy I've put together, hoping to help you.
🏨Hotel: Huizhou Huidong Shuangyue Bay Sunrise Yinsa & Salt Crystal Hotel
🗺️Address: Sunrise Dongshanhai Resort Area, Dongshanhai Section, Shuangyue Bay, Huidong County, Huizhou City, Guangdong Province
🚄High-speed Rail: Huidong South Station (38 kilometers away)
🚌Bus: Beiliao Village Station (2.6 kilometers away)
🚘Transportation Strategy:
The hotel is located in a relatively remote area, and transportation is not very convenient. It is recommended to drive there, or take the high-speed rail to Huidong South Station, and then take a Didi or Huidong Port Line to the hotel.
❤️A Yi has checked out the place, and the following spots are good for taking photos. Follow these tips to avoid disappointment.
📸Popular Photo Check-in Spots:
1. Reef Bar:
This is a cliff bar similar to those in Bali, located on the seaside cliffs of Sunrise Dongshan. It's very popular and great for taking photos.
(ps: Photos 2, 3, 4 were taken here)
(📷Portrait Position: The photographer stands on the second floor of the Reef Bar, facing the beach and shooting downwards, with the sea and rocks as the background, and the model sitting on a chair looking at the camera)
2. Cliff Music Bar
This is a small, romantic music bar located on a cliff, offering a broad view of the sea.
(ps: Photo 1 was taken here)
3. Reef Bridge:
The bridgehead is shaped like a flower petal, and it's built to represent eternal love, creating an exclusive lovers' bridge for Sunrise Dongshanhai.
(ps: Photo 5 was taken here)
(📷Portrait Position: The photographer stands on the walkway, shooting downwards at the bridge, with the model lifting their shirt and walking towards the sea)
4. Observation Tower:
A spiral cylindrical observation tower facing directly east towards the Pacific Ocean, it's a great place to watch the sunrise, which is also how Sunrise Dongshanhai got its name.
(ps: Photo 6 was taken here)
(📷Portrait Position: The photographer stands on the spiral staircase of the second viewing platform, shooting downwards, with the music bar and the sea as the background, and the model looking sideways at the sea)
5. Reef Auditorium:
Designed with a conch shape and light art, it breaks away from traditional forms, inspired by the design of sea waves.
(ps: Photo 7 was taken here)
6. i❤RICHU:
This is a check-in spot on the beach, featuring a pink sand area with cute check-in installations.
(ps: Photo 8 was taken here)
7. Sunrise Bar
An art castle constructed of granite, located above the center of the Sunlight Pool and Moonlight Pool.
(ps: Photos 9, 10 were taken here)
8. Hotel Lobby
With a unique design and simple, clear lines, it outlines the charm of the 'Oriental Divine Leaf' and the dynamic imagery of a 'Surfboard'.
(ps: Photos 11, 12 were taken here)
🕐Time Tips:
Niu Tou Ling Scenic Area: 9:00-23:00
Swimming Pool: 10:00-19:00
Qixing Ban Yue Sea Spring Bathhouse: 10:00-22:00
Resort Lighting: 19:00
❤️Warm Tips:
1. The UV rays at the beach are strong, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun. You can bring sunscreen spray, sunglasses, and sun-protective clothing.
2. Men can prepare a light-colored shirt for photos, and women can prepare a light-colored skirt.
3. June is the rainy season, so it's a good idea to bring an umbrella (a clear one is better for photos).

Took the child to the beach for a vacation for the first time
We went in winter when the weather wasn't great; it was overcast all day, but it didn't affect our mood to go out and have fun. Since we were with our parents, we tried to stay on the same floor. Our booked room types weren't next to each other, so we got a free upgrade. The Salt Crystal Hotel and the Silver Sand Hotel are next to each other, and they are generally the same, except for different room decorations. I prefer the decor style of the Salt Crystal. The Silver Sand has a minimalist Chinese style. P11-P14 are room photos without filters.
🛏️【Hotel Strategy】
🚗Transportation Strategy: Self-driving is the most convenient. It's also easy to go to Turtle Bay and the scenic lookout, as the hotel we stayed at is at the very end of Shuangyue Bay. I'm not sure how easy it is to call a Didi.
🌟Highlights: Next to the hotel is the Bull Head Ridge scenic area, which is also where the Reef Bar is located. Staying at the hotel allows you to swipe your room card for free entry, and it's definitely worth visiting and taking photos. The hotel also offers boating, but there doesn't seem to be much scenery to see.
⛱Hotel Environment: Hard to say, it's very much like an office building. The main entrance leads to the front desks of the two hotels on either side, and there's still construction going on around. They say there's a hot spring, but it's just seven small ones, which can be quite awkward when crowded.
🛏Room Facilities: The room has an unbeatable sea view, but it doesn't seem like there's any difference in the room facilities due to the upgrade. It's just that the floor is higher. We stayed on a floor in the teens, and at night we could enjoy fireworks from below without it being too noisy. The room doesn't have a coffee machine but offers a few bottles of free soft drinks. The room has a wet and dry separation, and it's better to use your own bath products. There's a ceiling fan that blows warm air in winter, which is very hot. It took us a while to figure out how to turn it off.
🖼Restaurant Environment: The package we bought included breakfast and dinner, both buffet style. Breakfast is okay, but dinner really doesn't have much to offer. There's very little seafood, no oysters, and salmon is limited. You have to fight for a seat in the restaurant, as both hotels share one, and it's very crowded.
🍽Dining Recommendations: There aren't many restaurants around here, and you have to drive a bit further to find more. Ordering takeout is not particularly convenient, so I don't have any special recommendations. Most are seafood restaurants—just be careful not to get ripped off.
📌Little Tips: Travel off-peak, travel off-peak, travel off-peak! I can't stress this enough. Many Hong Kong compatriots are gradually moving deeper into the mainland, and for a better experience, it's important to avoid the crowds. Also, the location is actually at the very edge of Shuangyue Bay, and there's no convenience store within 2km.

I recommend staying at the Sunrise Salt Crystal Hotel in Shuangyue Bay
I recommend staying at the Sunrise Salt Crystal Hotel in Shuangyue Bay.|||I stayed in Shuangyue Bay, Huizhou for 3 nights, 2 nights at the Salt Crystal Hotel, and 1 night at the Tan Yue Haosheng Hot Spring Hotel. I recommend the Salt Crystal Hotel for its newness, and the rooms face a super large seascape, with over 180 degrees of sea view. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and the glass doors of the balcony are designed to be hidden, which means you can have a full balcony without glass.
The hotel's buffet is rich and they make sure to replenish it in time.
The internet-famous Reef Bar is indeed a great place for photos, but the hot springs are not worth soaking in, and other amenities such as the gym and children's playground are not impressive, not worth experiencing. So for fun, besides the beach, there's the internet-famous Niu Tou Ling. Climbing to the top of the tower, listening to the waves, and looking at the distant horizon, it feels as if all the troubles of the world don't exist.
I won't recommend Tan Yue, it's too old, and the rooms are not impressive. The hotel facilities are somewhat enjoyable, but when I went there was no one there, and having all the facilities to myself couldn't make up for the lack of a buffet dinner. Although the hot pot set meal is also delicious, with children, I prefer a buffet.

If you come to Huizhou to see the sea, I recommend the Sunrise Yinsa Salt Crystal Hotel that just opened in May this year. Everything here is very new! Very clean!
The interior design of Sunrise·Salt Crystal Hotel comes from the world's most famous hotel design agency, Wilson Company. Many world-famous landmark hotels are Wilson's works: several Atlantis hotels worldwide, Macau Venetian Hotel, UAE Dubai's only Royal Phantom Hotel, etc.
The hotel is inspired by the local "salt" culture of Huizhou for thousands of years. Because it is next to the East Sea Salt Field, the salt field background wall, polyhedral salt-shaped lamps, and salt crystal-shaped decorations that can be seen everywhere in the hotel are all clever designs.
Address: Sunrise East Mountain Sea Coast Resort, Shuangyue Bay, 213 County Road, Huidong County, Huizhou City
