My girlfriend and I stayed at this hotel just now over the Chinese May holiday. Since we live in Shanghai, we gave it a go considering the flight (under 3 hours) was much easier than getting to Thailand etc. I'm trying hard to come up with a review that isn't totally biased, but its difficult! Positives - The Hotel grounds... More

Such a wounder full experience, totally relaxing atmosphere, full privacy, just one thing don't forget to bring mosquito cream, and also you will not find any local market nearby, everything else is great specially the hotel staff is wonderful and they speak English as well.

Our stay in banyan tree is fantastic. The whole environment is so private and we enjoy our honey moon there. We are very thankful for the special arrangement made by banyan tree (flowers, wine, cake). We will definitely come back again.

It's easy to forget in Sanya that you're not in China. And that's what detracts from the Banyan Tree experience to gives this a 4/5 rather than 5/5. It's a great place to get away, so long as you remember which country you are in. This Banyan Tree is archetypal China with the surface being immaculate but things are not... More
