Marriott Resort & Spa

We're relaxing now at the Sanya Marriott Yalong Bay Resort & Spa. The grounds are nice, well maintained. But the staff doesn't turn on the air conditioning and is not smiley enough. Almost everywhere is very stuffy, hot. Great request to turn on the air conditioning in the restaurant where the buffet is served, in the reception area and in the entertainment lobby. It's impossible to play. Food for breakfast and dinner is quite delicious and varied. Lots of seafood for dinner. Wine, beer, fraiche. There's plenty of fun for kids. Enjoyed the unusual activities for children and adults. It's not convenient that some need to be booked 24 hours in advance. Some entertainment for children is paid for. Swimming laps, handcuffs, balls to play with - you can take free. Enough for everyone. There are also baby spatulas and buckets freely available. Lowered as many as two stars because the staff didn't turn on the air conditioning. And because the employees are not smiling it gives the impression that hotel guests are not very welcome. Very big request 🙏 turn on the air conditioners. We have a big trip to China. And this is the first hotel not to use air conditioning in the restaurant and other common areas. At this time, I do not recommend this holiday hotel. If the shortcomings change, it is possible to rest well.

I’m surprised the average score of this property isn’t higher. It’s a solid 5 stars. The property is huge and well-maintained and the rooms are excellent with good air-conditioning. The TV offers English channels as well. It has a nice pool with many tubes and basketball/volleyball provided without cost. Those jet packs will be 98 Yuan / 15 mins. The beach is also nice and the hotel provided a lot of deck chairs sufficient for the many guests. Breakfast is average and quite crowded. The room and the bed is really very comfortable.

In May, we were guests at the Sanya Marriott Yalong Bay Resort & Spa and although the season was coming to an end, Yalong Bay fascinated us! This is the second time we have visited Hainan Island, but last year, in March, we stayed in Dadonghai Bay, which we believe will be more suitable for outdoor activities with excursions and shopping in numerous cafes and shops. In May, the weather is more suitable for beach holidays and small evening outings for dinner. Let's start our review with a house away from home, a room! The choice was Garden Deluxe View. Deluxe name promises you a room above the 5th floor, so we got a room on the 6th floor, but close to the lobby entrance, so the garden was a bit far away) The room setting is standard and corresponds to the photos on the website of this hotel. Bed linen is new, changed about once every 5 days. Cleaning, changing towels and bathrobes took place every day, qualitatively. It was gratifying that the balcony and room have dryers for swimwear and clothes - very useful in the humid climate! Minibar and snacks will be replenished for a fee, of which we have free water, tea, coffee, the stock of which is updated daily. The next important part is the buffet breakfast included in the voucher. The time is from 6:30 to 11:00. To enter the main restaurant you must go down to the ground floor and show the hostess the key card of your room. You can choose an indoor or outdoor table. It will be cool indoors, but very noisy due to people and music, during peak hours the table will have to wait. It's hotter outside, but no fuss. We advise you to try Hainan traditional dishes: sometimes they are offered by a waiter with a small cart. From the usual hot on breakfast there are: eggs boiled and fried, stewed vegetables, mushrooms, beans, meat, fish in various variations and combinations. There were also soups you could pick yourself. There's a plate of wheat noodles or rice noodles or dumplings on the giveaway, to which you can add broth and other ingredients: laminarium, sesame oil, lobster meatballs, seafood ... in fact, every time there's a new election — it's something that's memorable. Caution could be unexpectedly acute. On another stand, you can find bread and many kinds of sweet pastries that can be "seasoned" with butter, chocolate or jam. There are fresh juices. In the other part of the hall is a fruit stand, on it every day mini bananas, mangoes, tangerines, etc. Nearby is a yogurt table. Coffee and tea can be poured either in the hall or outdoors. The spiral staircases outside the restaurant can be taken to the terrace of the reception bar where it is time to take a photo, the sea view in the frame of tall palm trees is mesmerizing! We never tasted anything in the bar itself, but we definitely saw popcorn, ice cream, hot and cold drinks! Staff at the reception desk, always friendly and ready to help, speak English, but if necessary will use a smartphone with an interpreter and understand your problem) An important point of our visit was to visit the Thai and Tang Medical Centre located on the ground floor. Opposite to the reception desk of the lobby room is a consultant "Tai and Tang" who can talk more about both procedures and masters of medical affairs. The medical centre itself is located on the ground floor. Tall glass doors lead us to a small, bright reception area where there is always a member of staff, so you will not be neglected, counselled and assisted on any matter. This is the centre we chose because it's where Dr. Victor Ping, who already gave us treatment last year at the clinic in Dadonghai Bay, is doing the diagnostics. This year our treatment included: manual and therapeutic massage, acupuncture, acupuncture, ketgut threads and therapeutic herbal collections. The first thing we did was get a pulse test, tell us our complaints, and Dr. Ping gave us a course of treatment. There are several diagnostic doctors in the clinic, about which you will learn in the waiting room and orientation materials. It was very gratifying that there are many quality consulting brochures in Russian. The manual massage was performed by Dr. Liu, a young and very diligent specialist! Our treatment went well, although it feels painful in the early days. Many of our symptoms have diminished and gone away, and the previous year of treatment taught us that the healing effects of Chinese traditional medicine show up later. Our wellness also included vitamin D production, so let's talk about the sea and the beach, which is adjacent to the hotel. Guests of Marriott Yalong Bay can relax with sun loungers and umbrellas, but since the beaches are generally accessible in China, there are a lot of persistent food, drink and pearl vendors. Swimming is allowed in a special place fenced off by buoys, but don't worry it's big enough. The sea is calm and clear, we met jellyfish only on the first day. You can relax by the pool there is no problem finding a place, but on the beach a lot of sun loungers are busy from the early morning, but before lunch no one approaches them why do not understand. The hotel grounds are picturesque, green, many themed photo areas are arranged, very handy if you are afraid to forget: "where were you so cool vacationing?" The daily work of park employees is highly respected: so many flowering, well-kept plants, thoughtful and clean paths. We used to have dinner away from the hotel, there is, of course, a choice of large, different kitchens at pleasant prices. At the hotel we visited the Japanese restaurant "Edogin", chose a set dinner, which included 8 courses. The most impressive seafood and steak teppanyaki, delicate and piquant taste! Complementing the dishes are interiors and musical accompaniment. Being a guest of the Marriott Yalong Bay Hotel is nice and peaceful, definitely worth visiting!
