Many, speaking of China, immediately represent its huge and densely populated cities on the mainland, where there are many factories and where you can inexpensively buy a wide variety of goods. But this is an erroneous opinion. There are a lot of good resorts in China, most of which are very far from our usual ideas about this country.
Overview
One of the great places to relax in the Middle Kingdom is a tropical island and at the same time the Hainan province. This is a favorite place for those who prefer to swim, sunbathe and be treated in the healing springs, which are quite a lot. I must say that for Russians, especially residents of Siberia and the Far East, Hainan has long been a beaten track.
The island is located in southern China. It is often called paradise. Once it was part of Eurasia. Today, the Hainan is separated from China by the strait. The area of the island is about thirty-four thousand square meters. kilometers. There are many extinct volcanoes on it, after the eruption of which formed thermal springs with healing properties. This makes vacation on the island not only enjoyable, but also beneficial to health. Hainan, according to many, is "eastern Hawaii." There is everything that is characteristic of this tropical resort - coconut and banana palms, a turquoise sea, warm water, white sand on the beaches, a huge number of beautiful coral reefs, etc. The Russians chose the southern part of the island for relaxation. There are several small resorts, for example, Dadonghai, Yalongwan and, of course, Sanya. The number of hotels and large hotel complexes in this part of the island is constantly increasing. They are able to satisfy any, even the most demanding tourist, choosing for himself the direction of Sanya. Yuhuayuan Seaview Hotel 4 * (China) is one of them.

Yuhuayuan Seaview Hotel 4 *: reviews
Most Russians were impressed with their trip. Hainan, according to many, is not in vain called "eastern Hawaii." Everywhere is clean, tidy, especially when compared, for example, with Thai resorts.
As for the hotel itself, here the opinions of our countrymen are somewhat different. Some really liked its location, while others thought it was uncomfortable. Yuhuayuan Seaview Hotel 4 * is located on a hill, so there are many steps on its territory. This circumstance is not entirely suitable for older tourists, as well as for those who are going to relax with young children. The Russians were somewhat annoyed by the distance from the center. On the other hand, this location provides a quiet and relaxing holiday away from noisy establishments.
Some Russians note poor hotel management. Yuhuayuan Seaview Hotel 4 * was originally built only for local residents. And today, judging by the reviews, the numbers of certain categories of foreigners are not populated. For example, to the great regret of the Russians, only tourists from mainland China are accepted into two-story luxury apartments.
As for the filling of numbers, there are no complaints about this issue. The beds have very comfortable orthopedic mattresses. As our compatriots say, it’s very disappointing that only Chinese channels are shown on TV. Tourists note that there is enough furniture in the rooms: things can be safely placed both in the wardrobe and in large nightstands. As for the bathrooms, our compatriots rated them quite high: the plumbing works fine, there is everything - soap, shampoo, etc. Unlike other Chinese hotels, Yuhuayuan Seaview Hotel even provides toothbrushes.
But many people left negative reviews about the food: the trays are practically not updated, and the local cuisine prevails in the menu. Therefore, choosing hotels in China, you need to consider that this approach is a feature of many local hotels.
