I was happy that we chose to stay at the Holiday
Inn Resort YALONG BAY SANYA. It is located near the beach and has its private sands. The room rate is not bad – 77 USD per night for the superior
room, with pretty good view of the beach. It is the typical resort that prompt the fun and relaxing atmosphere. We were so happy that they sent a band with
singers representing each job roles (the reception, restaurant, the servants and the security) to our dinning table the next day.
Between 6:30 PM to 7:00 PM everyday, they hold special ceremony. Staff of the hotel dress up as local residents, hold fires and fruit, and dance with the
music. It is quite interesting and we enjoyed watching the ceremony. Some girls with pretty cloths bring the baskets of flowers to the beach and throw the flowers to the sea. The whole ceremony ended.

This is the SPA area under my room. Very good design. It inspired me of my
future home.
Hey. My favorite – the large, beautiful swimming pool.
This is the other side of the pool.

When I was tired, I will return to the swimming pool from the beach and enjoy seeing Wendy swimming. Can you see Wendy in the swimming pool? Her swimming
skills improved a lot during this trip.
The Holiday Inn also offered a decent garden.
I spent two hours on the long bench here. Time was frozen that afternoon.

The scene at night is as good as daytime if not better.
