Very nice stay; great spa. Blah food
The hotel was lovely. The room was spacious with comfortable beds and was in great shape. The pools were nice and surprisingly uncrowded for the size of the resort and the number of guests we saw. The family/shaded pool does need a little TLC (missing tiles, some overgrown areas), but it did not take away from an overall pleasing poolside experience. The staff were courteous and prompt to help, but not all spoke English. With phone translation and basic Chinese it all worked well. The spa was incredible and we went twice during our four night stay. The least impressive aspect of the stay was the food. Overall it was quite overpriced for the quality received. I know that hotels have high food prices and I expected it, but then I also expect commensurate quality. This did not really happen and we ordered takeout once we knew we could do that instead. The beachside buffet and the breakfast were the exception to this; both were lovely. Overall we had a great time and would stay again.

Down by the Bay
Spent three nights here to take in Yalong Bay. Resort is quite well appointed and it turns out we had some luck as the central pool was just reopened from a refurbishment as we arrived. The pool in question didn’t feel overcrowded even if the attached bar was treated as something of an afterthought. Breakfast was good if a little hectic at peak hours. Did western food at the Driftwood restaurant for a couple nights, and found it quite well executed comparatively. Went with the Oceanview balcony room which turned out to be a better option than the ground poolside one we had considered. Overall quite a nice little getaway!

Pleasant stay in St Regis - Sanya
There were several hotels to choose from and we decided on The St Regis because of the butler service. Hotel in general can be updated but the overall service by the staff was excellent. Notable mention was our butler, Cecilia Ma, who was quite attentive and responsive. Her English was quite good as well as my Mandarin was sub par and we communicated in English which was super helpful. Another staff worth mentioning was Joel Zhou from Concierge who was quite helpful as well.

A place for relax!
I have stayed in St.regis for four days three nights with my friends. Staying in this hotel you can definitely not going to anywhere but enjoying the nice beach and swimming pool in st.regis !! Rooms are nice ,facilities are good and people are friendly ! You can definitely just chill with friends in your own room balcony for the whole afternoon ! What’s more, warm welcome from front desk manager Fiona:) She has given us different suggestions where to eat and go ,a warm-hearted person! Lisa from house keeping is also a very helpful girl! We had some problems in bathing room for the second day, and she helped us to solved it immediately, thank you so much! Lastly, we appreciated for the Butler Service, Dana is a smart and helpful girl which helping us every small details within our stays. Even helping us out of her working hours, we thank you from the bottom of our heart! We wish to see you in Hong Kong next time ! We will be back for our next Sanya trip in future !!

Classy, spacious and clean rooms, proximity to the beach. However, the “butler” service is non existent. Staff is very friendly especially those greeting us every time we get off the taxi. But otherwise, those helping us with checking in at the counter do not read English very well. They needed me to explain to them my reservation. Also, the promised two queen beds turned out to be only two double beds which is very disappointing.

Nice hotel but inconvenience
Check in service was bad as we were left unattended even though we were the only 2 rooms checking in around 9pm plus. Difficult to have food as all restaurant in the resort close by 10pm & last order at 9.30pm. The only choice is room service as there is no nearby restaurant. We book a car & driver from the hotel to go for a local seaside village for seafood. The journey to the place was supposed for half hour but the driver was lost & we travel for 2 hours into outskirts village & he can't seems to be able to find back the route to highway to go back hotel. At the end we spend 3 hours inside the car without having any meals or dinner from 6.30-9.30pm. A very disappointing experience. Overall the service staff service is average only as you can tell they are inexperience & not well trained. The buffet breakfast food is too local instead of the international buffet spread & the restaurant is so noisy & pack with the locals like a market. The buffet spread of food never change for the 4 days we were there. A real dissapointment as this is my first st regis experience which I m so looking forward.
