Hotels in Sanya

Often called China’s Hawaii, Sanya is the country’s premier tropical beach destination on Hainan Island.

Its main draw is over 200 kilometers of coastline, featuring soft white sands like those at Yalong Bay and the dramatic rock formations of Tianya Haijiao.

Visitors spend their days snorkeling in the clear waters around Wuzhizhou Island, hiking through the lush rainforests of Yanoda, or exploring the cultural sites of Nanshan Temple with its towering Guanyin statue. For convenience, most visitors choose to stay in the central Sanya Bay area, which offers easy access to the airport and Phoenix Island. Yalong Bay is perfect for couples and luxury seekers with its calmer, resort-lined beaches, while Dadonghai attracts a younger crowd with its active nightlife and water sports. The city is well-connected, with Sanya Phoenix International Airport serving numerous domestic flights and some international routes, making it a straightforward trip for both quick getaways and longer holidays. On HOTEVI, you can choose from 42 hotels in Sanya. The selection is dominated by large, full-service beach resorts, particularly in Yalong Bay, but you’ll also find a good range of modern business hotels in the city and a few budget-friendly guesthouses near Dadonghai.
