Surf in July meisu

The hotel is located on the outskirts of town so it is awau from the party goers, (as it has turned into a bit of a party town) that said it is only a few minutes walk from the beach and the shops and restaurants are right at your doorstep. The staff are amazing and they are what changes the hotel from just a place to sleep to a pleasant place to stay. The hotel itself is fairly basic. It is clean and comfortable with daily cleaning. There is no elevator but the staff will help you take your bags up the stairs. If you want to go surfing they will set it up for you at a special price. The friendly, ever helpful staff is what makes this hotel special.

The location is just off of the main road so is well situated for food. But not so close to the beach and due to the layout of the buildings/street you have to walk around the houses a bit to get to the beach. The main issues I have with staying here was that there is no lift so don’t bring any heavy luggage as you will be carrying it all the way up and down. Definitely do not bother paying to have a window in your room as you will look at a wall that is less than a foot from the window so selling this room as a room with a window is awful! I looked in the other rooms as well and they all had an equally rubbish view. The rooms that had a slightly better view were looking on to the building opposite (currently under construction) so were looking at a blacked up building 5 meters away…equally rubbish tbh. The fact that people are allowed to smoke in the rooms just really topped off the experience here, it stank! As a non smoker I think it’s appalling to not have rooms that are not going to give you a headache all night as you try and sleep and obviously I couldn’t open the window to let air in as air cannot actually reach the window. Also no fridge so if you want a cold drink forget it. All in all the location is ok but the room itself is not nice or pleasurable to stay in. I called my stay here short as I couldn’t cope with the smell any longer. Only stay here if things like having fresh air don’t worry you. I will say however, that the gentleman and the lady at the front desk were really lovely people and the shining light in this hotel.

This place was great location in the little surf village but it was on the edge so not too loud at night. It is clean and service is very good. There is not much storage space but everything you need and really nice shower. If rainy season, keep clothes away from the window or they get damp. They help book your surf lessons and other activities. Try Annie’s Brunch restaurant and the taco truck nearby!

This place is for sure the best accommodation for the value. It’s a 5 minute walk from the beach, but the advantage of this is that it is much quieter. I stayed at 3 different places that were more expensive and were not as nice as the rooms here. It is newly renovated and very clean. Check in was very easy as a foreigner. The front desk also helped me book an early morning taxi. I would 100% book back here again next time I’m in Sanya.

Nice new place, very friendly staff. No views, and one room I would look out at a wall that I could reach out and touch. And no real amenities to speak of. But Houhai s a small beach town and everything is close by. You can find nicer rooms and better views, but that would be a lot more expensive. I booked one night and stayed three. Great place.

The staff was very kind and would go out of their way to help you if needed with any toiletries and towels etc. Will definitely book here again!

We enjoyed staying here while in Hou Hai! It is clean and modern. The location is at the end of the main street, and a short walk to the beach; it is central but remains more quiet. The front desk services were friendly. Our friends who have visited Hou Hai many times also enjoyed our referral to this hotel. We will come back the next time we visit!

HI, We travelled to HouHai Bay for the first time December 2021. At first it took a long time to find the hotel because it has a sign at the front that says 'SUMMER' and no sign that states 'Surf In July'. Secondly there is unfortunately an. incredible amount of construction going on so the view from the rooms do not depict what the photos are showing you. Be mindful. The location was perfect, 4 min walk and we were on the beach.

A comfortable stay in Houhai - the hotel is perfectly located near restaurants and a short walk to the beach. The staff were attentive and kind. I will definitely come back again!
