Stay at the best hotels, work the hardest like an ox 🐂

Don’t just take photos of the beach and sea in Sanya anymore! This time I unexpectedly discovered some hidden gems for fun activities that let you enjoy the vacation vibe and easily get great shots. The best part is you can even turn the hotels into stunning photo backdrops! 🌴 Three-day itinerary: Day 1: 📍 Sanya Bay Mangrove Resort World A perfect resort area for photos, with Greek-style white buildings that look like Instagram-worthy shots anytime, plus a huge water park to play in (Address: No. 155 Fenghuang Road, Tianya District, Sanya) 📍 Yalong Promenade Especially beautiful at dusk. Remember to wear a light-colored dress. The rooftop infinity pool at Sanya Kangnian Hotel by the promenade is perfect for photos. Day 2: 📍 Yalong Bay Tropical Paradise Forest Park Be sure to visit the all-sea-view glass walkway. Even if you’re afraid of heights, you can still get amazing shots. 📍 St. Regis Sanya Yalong Bay Resort Private beach with fewer people and beautiful scenery. The lobby’s spiral staircase and the seaside lawn are great for photos (Tip: the fewest people are during afternoon tea time). Day 3: 📍 Haitang Bay Check in at the popular hotels The Edition and InterContinental Sanya Haitang Bay Resort. The bamboo forest silhouette at The Edition is a must-shoot, and the underwater restaurant at InterContinental is super dreamy (advance booking recommended). 📍 Houhai Village Sanya’s hottest surfing spot. Beginners are recommended to try 8mm Surf Club (Address: Houhai Village, Haitang District). 🏨 Hotel photo tips: 1. Choose light-colored swimsuits for better shots 2. The light is softest between 3-5 PM 3. Use hotel decorations as props 4. For infinity pools, remember to shoot from above for the best effect 🍤 Food recommendations: Diadiadi Coconut Chicken (Sanya Bay branch) Qiong Xiang Ge Hainan Cuisine Restaurant (Airport Road branch) Bu Zaike Seafood (Haitang Bay branch) The biggest surprise this time was discovering how photogenic Sanya’s hotels are! From Greek style to Instagram style, from sea views to gardens, every hotel has its own charm, so you’ll never get bored~
