Conrad Sanya Haitang Bay

The Conrad Sanya Haitang Bay opened December 28, 2010, as Hilton Worldwide’s first Conrad resort in China. The Haitang Bay luxury resort faces the South China Sea from the island of Hainan, about 17 miles northeast of Sanya City. Acres of tropical gardens set off a collection of 101 guest rooms and villas, many with private plunge or full-size swimming pools and up to two bedrooms.

When not meeting or dining together in a villa, incentive and executive groups can gather for business or banquets on-site in the nearly 2,000-square-foot Conrad Ballroom. Members of larger groups can meet at the neighboring DoubleTree by Hilton Sanya Haitang Bay, where a 13,884-square-foot ballroom anchors a state-of-the-art conference center. Another popular attraction near the sister resort, the Wanda Culture Center of Haitang Bay, entertains with movie theaters, a contemporary arcade, karaoke rooms, and a spectacular stage performance of Spiral Show.

Back home, the Conrad’s somewhat more exclusive pleasures extend to dining at three restaurants and a lounge: Teatro for casual meals from an open kitchen, La Chine for contemporary Hainanese and Cantonese specialties, Senses for the highest quality Mediterranean cuisine, and Vue Lounge for enjoying high tea with a panoramic view. Guests can also enjoy workouts at the Conrad’s fitness center, holistic pampering at its spa, and lazy hours in the sun around the pools and palm-lined beach.
