ARK Hotel

The hotel is rather small and built in Tuscan style. nice pool, nice sea view and good beach. The breakfast is not special, there is no juice. The fan in the room is very loud and at night the engine noise of the fishing boats is disturbing. 10 minute walk to many restaurants

The good: The manager, Stanley, was very professional and ready to help when we needed it. The sea view is the best I've had in Hainan. I came to this hotel again mainly for the view. You can even hear the waves from the room and see the stars at night. Many people complain about the breakfast in the comment section, but it's not bad at all. There's different kinds of fruit, bread, coffee, eggs and write a few other dishes. It's definitely not five star, but my girlfriend and I (she's Chinese and I'm Canadian) enjoyed a long breakfast every morning. There's barely ever anybody on the beach and it's okay to go for dip in the sea, but you're technically not supposed to swim in it. There's a an area about 700 meters from the hotel where you can find different restaurants. The pool is very nice but isn't heated. You can easily get around just walking, renting the electric bikes and calling a taxi to get to some hiking spots. We didn't find it necessary to rent a car despite being remote. The bad: You are technically not supposed to swim in the sea. The pool is too cold to comfortably swim in when the weather is not hot. The cleaning service does just an okay job on cleaning the room. There's no really good restaurants around that we could find. Although I find this to be a problem in most areas of Hainan. There is no real variation of food. There's no breathing in the rooms. Bring snacks because it's hard to find food in the afternoon unless you order from the town, but then you have to wait for it to arrive and the options are limited. There is a gym but with limited equipment.

fabulous this resort even it's getting much old from the past years of pandemic but the family room is good to live with a super big the terrace appx 30sqm, good sea view and beach side

Beautiful stunning villa ,we originally booked for 1 night , ended up 3 nights . Front desk were super helpful and friendly . The quality of breakfast was average considering the price of the room and overall hotel standard . The hotel restaurant food was overpriced and overcooked fish , very disappointed. My partner and I wanted a coffee in the evening , we had to wait for the restaurant to open to buy one , these are the additional details of a hotel service that I expected to be part of our stay , as the hotel sells itself on a luxury standard. Small details makes all the difference and does not cost much , overall beautiful place , fantastic location, great front desk staff

I only stayed here for one night, but it was amazing. The staff was super helpful. I can’t speak Chinese and they were very patient with me. The room was super clean and the beach is just 50m from the hotel. Nice and secluded, not busy at all and the most beautiful views.

We only booked one night at beginning to check if we would like it. Then we stayed another 6 nights because it was just excellent. The service, the clean beautiful location and the staff were great. As our stay was off-season we pretty much had the howl place for our self. The beach is just with in few footsteps to access. You can enjoy the good restaurant or just order some delicious food around the corner and enjoy it on the massive terasse with seaview as we mostly did. Mrs. Xiaoxiang was helping us with anything we needed to make that stay a unforgettable one. We'll be back!

The location is bit at side and withdrawn from restaurants and cafe However the place is place quiet and the beach very quiet. The garden and the pool are pretty and pleasant The Manager was keen to help

The hotel is nice and clean. What we mostly appreciated is the help and welcome of the hotel manager Stanley. He helped us a lot to enjoy our stay in lingshui sea view hotel. Thanks again.

The overall experience was great, staff all very helpful and welcoming. Right next to the beach and was always quiet and relaxing
