Sheraton Sanya Yalong Bay Resort

The room, though a bit old, clearly just underwent renovations. I stayed on the seventh floor and had a view of trees, the sea, mountains, and the sunset. The bathroom blinds couldn't be opened from the outside, and the bathroom light lacked a nightlight – these definitely need improvement. There's also no place to put toiletries in the shower, which should be addressed. The front desk staff was responsive. Since the trees were too dense to see the sea from the fifth floor, they moved me to the seventh. The hallway has carpet, and there was an air purifier in the room. The room's cleanliness was good; cups had no water marks, and the toilet lid was clean. The breakfast, based on the pictures, is served in two areas, so it shouldn't be crowded. There are plenty of coffee machines. Unfortunately, I'm not good with powders, so I just ate randomly. You can grab beach towels freely. The heated pool faces the ocean, and the lanes inside were thankfully free of children, which was great. In the evenings, there was bonfire dancing. The hammocks on the hillside were often occupied by people live-streaming. The buffet dinner offered crab, salmon, tuna, and the red wine was better than the white. I got to use the paddleboard for half an hour, and when I was checking out, the front desk lady waived the fee, which I appreciated. The takeaway cabinet is conveniently located at the lobby entrance. Across the road, there's a fruit shop, a small convenience store, and places to eat – very convenient. Turning left upon leaving the hotel, there's a food court, also very convenient. The public areas have a complex design, making it easy to get lost at night. Afternoon tea was good, especially if you're with a larger group. There's singing in the lobby until 10 PM, creating a lively atmosphere. Oh, and the balcony gets sun in the afternoon, perfect for drying clothes; I recommend bringing two swimsuits to alternate. My only complaint is that the elevator is quite a distance away.

I was quite satisfied with my stay at the hotel. They upgraded me to a sea-view room for free 😊, and the room was very spacious. The hotel staff and butler were all excellent and very enthusiastic. The hotel breakfast offered a good variety and was plentiful. However, the heated pool in the resort was tiny, only big enough for a few very small children to play in! The water in the other pools felt a bit cold! The water quality at Yalong Bay is excellent, clear and transparent, but the sand on the beach was a bit coarse, making it a bit uncomfortable to walk barefoot. 😅

Last stop on our Sanya trip, we stayed at the Sheraton Yalong Bay – overall, I'm satisfied! The public areas are truly beautiful. The kids' pool, though small, was just right for them to play in. The larger pool allowed for paddleboarding, and there were plenty of activities. The staff were also quite enthusiastic.

The hotel's public area staff are incredibly warm and attentive. From the moment you step inside, you can feel their genuine professionalism. Whether it's checking in or asking for tourist information, they patiently and thoroughly answer all your questions, making guests feel like VIPs. The decor blends modern and classical elements, creating a stylish yet grand atmosphere. The spacious area, exquisite furnishings, and a touch of greenery fill the entire space with life and vitality, as if it were a place where art and nature perfectly intertwine.

The front desk staff were really welcoming and helpful, they even carried my luggage and upgraded my room for free. The room itself was lovely, with a great view of the ocean, and it was clean with all the necessary amenities. The only minor issue was the lack of power outlets; there weren't any by the bed for charging. However, the public area activities, like the bubble machine and the evening bonfire ritual, were fantastic!

Our entire trip was very enjoyable. The hotel activities kept us busy all day. In the morning, we played in the water, and in the afternoon, there were so many playground activities that my little one couldn't get enough, like ring toss, basketball shooting, mini-golf, and more. The bonfire party in the evening had a great atmosphere, and my daughter even captured a super beautiful moon afterward. From 9 PM onwards, I enjoyed cocktails in the lobby for two consecutive nights. The cocktails were very local, made with coconut milk, and the Cuban live band was very enthusiastic. After returning to Shanghai, I realized I had left something behind, and the hotel even helped mail it back for free. The service was really excellent.
