Pullman Sanya Yalong Bay Villas & Resort

We rented a villa with a pool for a few days. Loved the location, 5-10 minutes walk to the sea. Beautiful beach and very clean sea. The hotel pleased with its hospitality, cleanliness and quality of service. Varied breakfast, bonus was dinner bbq. Very responsive manager Edward was always on call, very helpful to my family with any questions. We stayed at villa 7007 from December 6 to December 9. Please note the quality of cleaning of our villa. Mr. A.Davydov

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights and I think generally it’s a nice hotel with cool architecture but still maybe it’s a bit overrated because there were some things that shouldn’t be in this kind of hotel. The room was nice in general but still you could see some parts were repaired not really careful, the wall behind the TV was a bit dirty or repaired unwell, I could still see some splashes there. There were no paper for writing notes neither the pen or pencil. The water was some kind of strange brand or even advertising. The floor wasn’t clean even after cleaning my feet were a bit dirty and the sofa had some stains too… Some amenities of the hotel were closed for use, such as the upper pool and sky jacuzzi. Anyways it was a nice stay but those details are still making it a bit disappointing…

Couple of days with the family. Villa was great and happy with the private pool. Food court 1 minute walk from hotel with big range of cuisine. Beach 5 minute walk. Breakfast reasonable. Would stay again.

We stayed in 4 different hotels during this vacation and Pullman Yalong was by far the most disappointing one, although to be honest part of it comes from expectations. Pullman Yalong is a decent 3-4 star hotel, whose main problem is that expectations associated with the brand make it seem to be something it is not. Chinese breakfast is actually quite decent and has a wide range including MaLaTang, if you are craving Western food though it probably isn't worth the price. They have a big sign near the lobby recommending that you should not bring delivery food to your room, due to health and safety reasons, but feel free to ignore that. We ordered both room service and outside delivery on several occasions and deliveries were definitely a better option. Plus there is a food court and a supermarket not far from the hotel. The pool is quite big and its lower section is well shaded as well which a plus. However it was a major disappointment that the slide was closed(long term) as well as the cool cave you might see on the hotel's photos. On top of that there are some downright ridiculous designs ideas including a horrible pool access and sharp edge stairs inside the pool. The beach in Yalong is all public, but the access to it is limited by occasional path between some of the front row resorts. What this means in practice is that you will have a bit of a walk having to go around Marriot in Pullman's case. The room was OK, even had a bath and a walk-in wardrobe. The high point was the balcony above the pool. Signs of disrepair are visible around the hotel, but to be honest this seems to be the Yalong/Sanya standard at least for the 4 star hotels we stayed in. Jacky, I hope I got the name right, who worked in the lobby/shuttle car was great though. Not because he spoke good English(which he did), but because he had a problem solving attitude and wasn't afraid to approach guests to offer help.

Best option to travel with family: that was my second stay here. Location is 5+, food and accomodation 5+. Stuff is always nice and ready to help. Thank you, Pullman Sanya Yalong Bay team!

Nice old hotel, breakfast is Chinese, staff is friendly and helpful. Location is not very convenient: you need to walk through out other hotels, no private beach. But the hotel is clean, the pool is long and not busy. If you’d like the complete social detox - it’s your hotel
