- Sanya, China
Initially, I couldn’t find a place to stay in Sanya (see Sanya, China: Struggling To Find Where to Stay). I ended up staying everywhere including:
The best of all of them was the Marriott Sanya.
Hotel Itself
This is a lavish property.




Beach Compromise
There was not a beautiful beach like the Sheraton, but there was a view of the water. If you’re coming for the surf, this will have to do.




Pool
There was a huge pool that I had all to myself. I was able to share it with many of my inflatable friends.







Suite
Status usually goes a far way in Asia.















Lounge
Status leads to lounge access. In Asia, that access usually means good food and drinks.














Breakfast
Status also includes breakfast.



Overall
I would stay at the Marriott because of its location and because of the pool. I would stay somewhere else for a beach as I did during this trip.

The pool wall has major water (?) marks in that one pic. They really need to up their pool maintenance
