Lingshui Beach Hotels

I came to Lingshui for a babymoon and instantly fell in love with Raffles! The entire experience was perfect. The environment was comfortable, and the service was gentle and attentive. It's a true hidden gem for pregnant mothers looking to relax and unwind. The hotel's public areas exude an amazing ambiance, with lush Southeast Asian tropical garden scenery. The coconut groves are vibrant and flourishing, the grounds are clean and tranquil, and the greenery is artfully arranged. The pathways are flat and easy to walk, with no steep inclines, making them perfect for pregnant women to stroll, get some fresh air, and relax. Every photo taken here turns out beautifully. The room stay experience was superb. The room was spacious and airy, with soft, non-glaring natural light and a comfortable, uncrowded layout. The entire room was clean and odor-free, the bedding was soft and skin-friendly, and the facilities were complete. It was quiet and not noisy, making it especially suitable for pregnant mothers to rest and recuperate peacefully and comfortably. The hotel's private beach was meticulously maintained, with fine, soft sand. It was uncrowded and wonderfully peaceful, with a gentle and comfortable sea breeze. A slow walk there is incredibly therapeutic for both mind and body. What touched me most was the hotel's thoughtful and personalized service, especially how attentive and friendly they were to pregnant guests! The staff were gentle and meticulous throughout, proactively checking on my physical condition, offering soothing services, and avoiding noisy or strenuous arrangements. The attention to detail was exceptional. Our dedicated butler had already arranged non-slip mats and pregnancy-friendly pillows in the room. They were always on call, patiently responding to all our needs, making everything so convenient and worry-free. The complimentary travel photography service was also fantastic. The photographer was incredibly gentle and considerate, slowing down the pace and guiding us throughout, avoiding harsh sunlight and uncomfortable poses. The candid shots were natural and beautiful, and the original photos had incredibly high quality, making it easy to capture stunning and gentle babymoon photos. Overall, the environment, facilities, and service were impeccable. The warm and thoughtful details made the stay truly healing. It's a high-quality hotel perfectly suited for a peaceful getaway.

1. The first room we were assigned, Room 1210, had a really bad, damp smell. We couldn't stand it, so we requested a room change. The new room on the first floor didn't have that smell, which was really strange. 2. The gardens here are beautifully done, giving a real Southeast Asian resort vibe. However, the only iconic photo spot is the circular waterfall in the lobby. For social media purposes, having only one signature spot isn't quite enough. While the gardens are exquisite, they don't photograph as uniquely as, say, Sanya Capella; many resorts have similar landscapes. 3. The hotel thoughtfully provided a bathtub, a child's toilet, and all the necessary amenities for children. As many online reviews stated, the bedding was very comfortable! It's clear that everything used throughout the hotel is of high quality, and the children's playground equipment also looks premium. 4. Breakfast runs until 11 AM, there's afternoon tea at 3 PM, cocktails at 6 PM, and red and white wine at 8 PM. You can eat and drink all day, which makes up for some of the hotel's shortcomings. 5. The Thai food was delicious, but the set menu included in the package was just average. The à la carte options were much better. 6. At The Sanya EDITION, paddleboarding was in a murky pond, which we didn't dare to try. At Capella, we decisively went paddleboarding in the pool and had a fantastic time. 7. Our butler, Jaya, was incredibly responsible. She helped us change rooms, carried our belongings, and even mailed forgotten items home. We're truly very grateful ☺️

The hotel staff were generally very welcoming and enthusiastic, though the concierge service could be improved. The hotel garden is beautiful, and you can walk straight through it to the beach. The internal facilities are a bit old, but they are relatively clean and tidy. The breakfast selection isn't huge, but there's enough to fill you up, and the dining environment is great, with the option to eat outdoors and enjoy the views.
