"What a wonderful hotel! Very comfortable, cozy, and quiet, with a beautiful garden and pools! Excellent on-site restaurants. Friendly staff. We felt incredibly comfortable the whole time! It may not be the newest hotel, but we've been to neighboring giant hotels, and in terms of comfort and luxurious, relaxed living, we know Sofitel is the best!
The children's entertainment area is simply amazing!
Thank you for a wonderful stay!"

"Our stay was incredibly comfortable. Although not located in the most popular part of Sanya (i.e. yalong bay), we enjoyed the tranquility and exclusivity of the location. The service was impeccable and prices reasonable. The rooms are spacious and very well equipped."

"I’m really happy and glad I picked this property. Everything is perfect. I’ll definitely stay at this property again when I come back to Sanya. The crew were so accommodating, the place extremely clean and modern. It’s close to the beach but not too close making it so quiet. The ocean view from my room was spectacular and serene and most importantly the price is so reasonable. I’m so grateful that Ascott made such a great property in such a great location. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. "

"Beautiful property overlooking the bay with direct access to the ocean boardwalk. Large shopping mall is about a 20min walk and accessible via the boardwalk. Many local restaurants nearby.
The rooms are slightly scuffed since they are older, but overall the room is lovely. Clean room, wonderful waterfall shower, comfy beds, robes, slippers, flip flops, hair drier, flat iron, many toiletries, water bottles, tea, coffee, quiet
Breakfast buffet is massive and goes until 1pm. We didnt eat lunch...

"Incredible hotel and staff. One of the nicest hotels I've had the pleasure of staying at. As always, there's a bit of a language barrier, but each member of their team tried their best, and was always quick to grab someone who spoke enough English to get by. Baris and Lawrence were very helpful throughout my stay. Service was on point from start to finish. I was here for about a week so I spent a lot of time comparing various hotels, and I'm really happy I ended up at Rosewood."

"Family of four stayed in hotel for 11 days - we had great time. Very nice hotel -staff very helpful, convenient location in haitang sanya, rooms and facilities are very clean and comfortable, with big family rooms. My butler Bobby has been great help to us, patient and experienced. Kids club is great for family, staff well trained and great to kids. There are lots kids pools with staff looking after customers all the time, Alan has been very helpful when we were playing near the kids pool. Overall very happy with the hotel and kids loved sanya as first timer in China"
"My fiancé and I stayed here for 6 nights in a deluxe room at the end of February. The room was very spacious and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay.
The resort pools were nice, although they weren’t quite as relaxing as we had hoped. There were a lot of people using SUPs which made it difficult to fully relax by the poolside, and during our stay the beachfront pool was closed due to the fireworks happening every night for Lunar New Year. The gym facilities were also very convenient and well equipped, which was great to have access to during our stay.
The location was convenient and very close to the duty-free mall. The restaurants at the resort were also very welcoming and accommodating to my fiancé, who has coeliac disease, which we really appreciated.
A special mention goes to Chloe, the foreign concierge, who was an immense help during our stay. As we don’t speak Mandarin, she helped communicate with other staff for us and assisted with various enquiries, which made navigating everything much easier.
The rooftop bar was another highlight of the resort, a really nice place to sit, relax, and have a drink in the evening.
Overall we had a great stay and appreciated the spacious rooms, helpful staff, and convenient location."
"Location of hotel is incredible. The lawn and swimming pools are well maintained, though rooms are a bit old. Everything is super clean and staff is very friendly. Breakfast could be a bit better. Overall our family enjoyed the stay. "
