Grand Hyatt Sanya Haitang Bay Resort and Spa

The hotel is unquestionably beautiful. The grounds are lush and gorgeously landscaped and maintained. Our room and the public areas of the hotel are clean and well-maintained. We were very disappointed in a beachfront hotel whose beachfront we were forbidden to swim in. We understood that this was for safety reasons but we did not know this in advance. We were restricted to the hotel family pool because the "grownups" pool was closed. The family pool was crowded and very warm.

Breakfast had to line up for a bit but overall good food and good service. Hotel is very kids friendly. Dinner at Chinese restaurant was awesome.

Overall super good experience. Very nice hotel for families. Service was so so at the beginning but it improved along our stay and it seems is much better than other hotels. Family rooms are impressive (fully equipped apartment with 2 rooms). The children room is absolutely amazing.

This hotel is as good as the description. However, there are 3 things that was discouraging: 1. The hotel doen't provide chairs and beach umbrellas at the beach. Understand it's a new rule from the local Government (explained by a staff), but it does affect the value from a guest point of view. 2. Some facilities are getting old and stained, in need of some maintenance. 3. One of pools there was for adults only when I visited 2 years ago. It was a great area to relax, have a swim, drink and eat. However, it's now full of kids... jumping and yelling, the same as the other pools.
