Sanya Yalong Bay Thermal is a luxury hot spring resort at Yalong Bay in Sanya, Hainan Province, China's premier tropical beach destination located at the southernmost tip of Hainan Island where year-round sunshine, white sand beaches, and clear turquoise waters of the South China Sea have earned the city the informal title of China's Hawaii and established it as the country's most celebrated tropical resort destination. Yalong Bay itself is designated a national-level tourism resort zone, with its 7.8-kilometer crescent of white sand beach flanked by five-star international resort hotels, coral reef diving sites, and the Butterfly Valley Nature Reserve protecting the island's extraordinary tropical biodiversity including hundreds of butterfly species. The natural geothermal spring waters here, enriched by Hainan's volcanic geology, are used in elaborate outdoor soaking pools set within tropical garden landscapes that invite guests to experience the profound pleasure of warm mineral bathing in a genuine tropical paradise setting.

Insider tip — Sanya Yalong Bay Thermal Resort lies on one of Hainan's most celebrated stretches of coastline, where granite headlands frame turquoise waters and luxury hotels line a 7-kilometre crescent beach. The sodium-chloride thermal waters emerge from deep granite formations and are pooled in multiple outdoor circuits set among tropical gardens of bougainvillea and coconut palms. Bathing at dusk when the South China Sea glows orange is a signature experience. The resort pairs seamlessly with Yalong Bay's snorkelling and diving sites active between October and April.
