Got hooked by Shu Qi's recommendation! This is my must-stay spot every time I visit Wanning.

Le Méridien Shimei Bay Beach Resort in Hainan unfolds with low-density villa-style layouts. Its pristine white main structures, paired with French elements like arched windows, carved ironwork, and accented by tropical palms and vibrant flowers, create a romantically laid-back vacation vibe. Rooms feature natural tones with rattan furniture, and French-style balconies or terraces come standard. Floor-to-ceiling windows turn the gradient-hued sea into a dynamic mural, while at night you can stargaze from the bathtub. Some units boast private gardens and 10-meter-long standalone pools. French imported toiletries, smart control systems, and custom bedding transform sleep into pure indulgence. The Chinese restaurant specializes in creative Qiong cuisine using local ingredients like Dongshan goat and Hele crab. Don't miss the freshly opened coconuts and eggs Benedict at breakfast, as the venue transforms into a sunset bar by evening. The seaside wooden boardwalk features specialty dining spots serving freshly grilled Wenchang chicken with craft beer. The central pool includes an underwater bar, while the 25-meter starlit heated pool allows winter swimming. The kids' club has a climbing wall, VR game room, and coral reef education zone. The water sports center offers windsurfing, jet skis, and diving gear, with PADI-certified instructors leading expeditions to explore Jiajing Island's coral reefs. Reachable by hotel speedboat, this national marine reserve features crystal-clear waters and colorful coral colonies where sea turtles can be spotted while snorkeling. An 8-minute walk takes you to China's most beautiful seaside bookstore with its wave-facing terrace café. At Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden, discover cocoa, pepper and other tropical crops, and even make chocolate yourself.
