Sanya Pitfalls & Recommendations｜Yalong Bay Guesthouse Detached Pool Villa, Perfect for Couples to Book

Spent the last two days in Sanya relaxing just right! The infinity pool detached villa at Yalong Bay Guesthouse has "private vacation" deeply engraved in my heart, but you really need to avoid these pitfalls! 🌴 230㎡ detached villa, maximum relaxation and happiness It’s just a 10-minute walk from Tianyu to check-in. I recommend telling the front desk you want a room “close to the entrance + with a horizontal pool” for double the photo opportunities! The 230㎡ space is so luxurious, the private pool is so clean you can see the bottom, surrounded by greenery. Pull the sheer curtains and it’s your exclusive world for two, no worries about being disturbed. Daily travel relies entirely on the shuttle bus, a 1-minute call and it’s at the villa door. The butler responds super quickly, basically handling requests instantly—perfect for lazy people like me~ At night, you can stroll and eat at the night market right outside the hotel, full of lively local atmosphere, no need to go far to feel Sanya’s buzz. ❌ Real Pitfalls to Avoid! Don’t make these 3 mistakes 4. Breakfast is really disappointing! Few options and no special features, much worse than Tianyu. I suggest getting up early for a bowl of Hainan noodles and then leaving, don’t expect too much. 5. Hotel’s partnered travel photography is a big trap! The so-called “retouching” is just adding a filter. They initially said 5 original photos were free, but on Xiaohongshu some paid 199 yuan for 17 retouched photos, and at the hotel the vendor refused to honor this, prices were all over the place. I firmly declined all extras—better to take your own photos or choose an outside photography service. 6. Too few kid-friendly activities! If you have lively kids who love events, think twice. This place suits couples or families with very young children better. If you want your kids to burn off energy, Tianyu is still the priority. ✨ Hidden tips & suggestions Off-season prices are super attractive. If your budget is limited and you want a detached pool villa, just go for it! If you have time, rent an electric bike at the entrance of Baihua Valley and ride along the coastal road to Sun Bay—every shot looks like a Japanese-style photo.
