stayed here for a weekend for golf - be sure to order a hotel car to collect you - taxi drivers quite aggressive at arrival and you will be ripped off - stunning open air lobby - good check in with staff friendly and a reasonable grasp of english - rooms very nice, clean, decent bathroom, nice balconey - 3... more

The hotel check in was quick, friendly and efficient. yes they do double check when 2 men have booked a double bed but they did so discretely. The room was large, well decorated, albeit rather 'busy' in style- yellow and gold. But nice mountain views, all working, clean tidy etc. 3 restaurants here. We arrived late and the Indochine served... more

We had a wonderful holiday at this hotel which is superb. We loved the little touches which made our pale northern european bodies comfortable in the heat of the day. Drinking water on the beach and the cool flannels handed out at the poolside and bar. The heat takes a couple of days to acclimatise but its worth it. We... more

I travelled to the Mariott, Sanya to attend a conference. The hotel is around an hour transfer from the hotel and it is an easy trip. Check in /out was painless, they bring you a welcome drink, towels, and a necklace made of shells. The accomodation is spacious, with an excellent bathroom with separate shower and bath. Lovely large comfortable... more

We spent 4 days during December at the Marriott; wife, myself and children aged 3 and 1. To put our review into context, we live in Asia and travel frequently always staying in 5-star resorts so we have a bit of experience. This resort stacked up extremely well. Beautiful grounds, nice room, good pool and beach: despite hotel being sold... more

Just got back from 4 days at the Marriott in Sanya. The grounds are beautiful, the beach was perfect, and pools were nice. Rooms were clean- we were upgraded to ocean front view which was great but my parents had mountain view which was also nice. Staff was very friendly and most had some english. Agree with previous review- a... more

I just completed a 5 night stay at the Marriott Resort on the island of Hainan. For those of you unfamiliar with the region, it's basically turning into the "Hawaii" of China. The hotel grounds are well maintained with lots of friendly staff and service most have a passable knowledge of English. The hotel has a number of great looking... more

We booked to stay at Marriott Sanya for 6 nights. Marriott Sanya was a lovely clean hotel. The staff were courteous and the beach was very nice. The hotel itself did not have anything particularly Chinese about it (apart from the staff of course). It didn't reflect any culture at all. The hotel is on Yalong bay, a resort lined... more

A short one hour flight from Hong Kong takes you to the unspoilt hainan island of sanya. A taxi from the airport to the marriott cost approx 120 RMB, one word of warning check your change ! We got hungarian notes but as it was late at night when we arrived we did not realise until well after the event... more
