Hilton Sanya Yalong Bay Resort & Spa

“Beach view and room.”

“The beach is right there and the pool is great.”

“We stayed 4 nights in total, switched to Ocean view room. The facility is nice but no much shade or almost not at all so you can't really use it during day. The pool has very little shade so everyone goes there which makes it inconvenient. Pool water doesn't seem very clean though they do clean it every morning. Afternoon they close some of the pools so the rest is fully packed with kids and floating unicorns and we didn't use it as you can't swim or relax. There's a wide open area when going to the beach, completely uncovered. The shower is not close to the beach, again you need to walk that - wide open to sun - path to reach it. The beach is steep so you lay on sunbed in very weird position, waiting to slide down from it. Only one towel station, again due to steep part not very convenient to go to. Water and the beach are clean and not crowded. Beach position is like that that you don't have almost any shade in the morning so we didn't really use it after 9h. Unfortunately water sports are organized on Yalong, though not that often but you can still smell the gasoline from time to time. Breakfast was so so. Food in pool and lobby bar were ok. We didn't mind slow service, as we live in China for years and we know how are organisation and communication here and we're in peace with that :D Before moving to Hilton we had a perfect stay in Pullman on Sanya bay, which probably affected our opinion on this hotel and the beach. But in general, if you prefer to go to Yalong, I think any of resorts in this area will be good choice. You will still find plastic in the water and the beach but the sand here is much nicer so the water is see-through. You can also spot the jellyfish which is a plus compared to Sanya bay :D But Sanya bay has spectacular sunrise and sunset, very good for morning/evening strolling up and down and much wider with shade throughout the day ( at least in Pullman hotel area).”
