Pullman Sanya Yalong Bay Villas & Resort

Me alojé en este hotel durante 3 noches y creo que, en general, es un buen hotel con una arquitectura genial, pero tal vez esté un poco sobrevalorado porque había algunas cosas que no deberían estar en este tipo de hoteles. La habitación estaba bien en general, pero aún así se podía ver que algunas partes estaban reparadas sin mucho cuidado, la pared detrás del televisor estaba un poco sucia o mal reparada, todavía podía ver algunas salpicaduras allí. No había papel para escribir notas ni bolígrafo ni lápiz. El agua era de alguna marca extraña o incluso publicidad. El suelo no estaba limpio, incluso después de limpiarlo, mis pies estaban un poco sucios y el sofá también tenía algunas manchas... Algunas comodidades del hotel estaban cerradas para su uso, como la piscina superior y el jacuzzi del cielo. De todos modos, fue una estadía agradable, pero esos detalles aún la hacen un poco decepcionante...

Pullman Hotel is our favorite place on Yalong Bei in Sanya. Very cozy and comfortable villas on a large territory. From the beginning of check-in to the end of our vacation the best assistant is a hotel employee named Jeffery. He is always in touch with you and solves your questions very quickly. The attention of this man speaks of his professional training and desire to provide tourists with a comfortable vacation.  The hotel has the most inexpensive bbq buffet  However, there is a wish for the hotel owners to install pool heating equipment for the winter period. Alternative energy sources will help in this easily

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.
