Пляжный отдых на твердую четверку. Beach holiday for a solid four.

In addition to this hotel in Sanya, we also rested at the Resort Intime hotel, so there is something to compare with. In principle, the hotel corresponds to its 4 stars. Although it is located on the 2nd line, but the advertising 58 seconds from the lobby to the beach is really true. Good rooms, great deserted beach with always free sunbeds. I don’t even know what bad to say about this hotel, in general, the hotel itself is a solid four. The sea is very beautiful, but sterile in those places fenced with buoys where they are allowed to swim, i. e. there is no living creature at all, there is no feeling at all that they walked along the bottom with a rake, there are no pebbles or a blade of grass such a large pool of sea water. The water is clear at a depth of 3-4 meters, it is perfectly visible with a mask and fins to dive very well, but boring, for all the time only one starfish, of an ugly brown color, crawled into this underwater sea desert. Since we are not obsessed with food, we can say the following about food: it is not bad, and it is definitely better than at Resort Intime. We went to Sanya for fun 35-50 yuan, 25-30 min. taxi ride. Advice to those who want to save a little, do not catch a taxi near the hotel, go 30 meters away. A taxi will be a little cheaper. There are no problems with food; there are a lot of restaurants for every taste and a wallet, in case of emergency, there is a good McDonald's in the city. We really liked one restaurant called Versailles Restaurant & Kty, such a pretentious name, but in fact a cafe with excellent seafood pizza. Since water, juices, beer at the hotel are significantly more expensive, in the city in supermarkets we stocked up whole packages at once, it turned out to be a good idea to save. A taxi in the city, no matter where you go, costs 10 yuan. 30 minutes on a jet ski costs 300 yuan, enough to ride and beat all hands on the waves. Of the excursions, you can advise the Buddhist temple, monkey island (because of the funicular) and hot springs (if you didn’t have time to burn out) we still went to Pirate Island, I really didn’t like the sea with garbage, diving sucks (700 yuan). A pearl factory is a complete scam for money, for example, a ring with a pearl with a large pea costs about 12.000 yuan. For those who choose between Yalong Bay and Dadong Bay, this is food for thought based on personal experience. Sanya is an approximately 700 thousand city without any treatment facilities, all wastewater is discharged into the river that flows through the city, and from there into the sea. We tried to cross this river on a pedestrian bridge and could not do it because the stench is simply impossible. For the sake of interest, look on the map where this river flows into the sea and where Dadong Bay is located and it will become clear to you what choice to make.
