Huidong Island Sunset Beach Seascape Resort (Xunliao Bay Sea World Branch)

We were very happy with our stay here. On arrival we got upgraded to a bigger room. The room was very spacious, comfortable and had an amazing sea view. The host was very friendly and accessible and happy to help with any questions we had.

I visited Huidong Island Resort with my boyfriend for his birthday, and unfortunately, our experience wasn't great. The biggest challenge was the language barrier - we don't speak Chinese, and it made navigating the resort extremely difficult. The resort's location seemed promising, but we encountered a significant issue with a local woman who scammed us for a boat ride. We were asked to pay 30RMB (the actual cost to the captain) and then she demanded an additional 200RMB to her own account. The language barrier made the situation confusing, and we only realized we'd been scammed after she had left. It was a disappointing start to our trip. Trying to make the best of it, we headed to the ocean for a swim the next day. However, after about 20 minutes, we were asked to exit the water due to a potential typhoon approaching. To add to the disappointment, the swimming pool was closed, and many amenities we had expected to be available weren't operational. This was pretty disappointing given they were part of why we chose the resort. On the bright side, the hotel room itself was very nice, and the breakfast was good. But overall, our experience fell short of expectations, largely due to the communication challenges and unavailability of advertised amenities. Would I recommend? Maybe not without significant improvements in addressing language barriers and ensuring advertised services are available. For travelers who speak Chinese or are prepared for such challenges, it might be a different story.

Cleanliness: The room had not been cleaned properly, there was empty packets on the floor. The bathroom smelt horrible. WiFi: Good WiFi. Bed: Clean and comfortable bed. Amenities/surrounding area: Close to beach. Staff/service: Responsive. Bathroom: Smelt very bad. Not clean. Towels were basically just paper, they were horrible.

Lots of fireworks and construction noises and lots of shouting people inside the corridor. Restaurants: The restaurant on the ground floor had a mouse/rat in it 🤮 Smell: Very bad sewage smell. Ease of finding hotel: Very hard to find. Would I recommend? No.

The hotel was so amazing and the staff were very friendly. The rooms are very specious and there are lots of shops close by to get stuff you need. Also the hotel is just a few minutes walk to the beach. On arrival we were a little rushed for time because we had to meet other friends and the staff were so quick to help upgrade our room so we could freshen up before we left. I definitely recommend the hotel. Something I really appreciated was the hanging line in the bathroom to help dry your clothes since there is so much water activity 10/10 All I can suggest you bring with you would be a cool cause there aren’t any fridges in the room but besides that you get disposable towels and can ask for more so you know you are clean and very friendly staff that help all hours of the night. Definitely going back
