Guest Reviews

Lucian - UK

"Houhai totally surprised me — way more relaxed than I expected. We grabbed iced coconuts, watched the surfers, and just chilled by the beach for a while. Qingshui Bay was even better — the water was incredibly clear and there were barely any crowds. The whole day felt peaceful and very local, not touristy at all."

"I had never heard of the Danjia people before, and learning about their boat lifestyle was eye-opening. We took the sea bus afterward to the floating fishing village. It felt like stepping into another world. Very different from the usual sightseeing stops."

Timothy - USA

"Qingshui Bay was stunning — quiet, clean, and perfect for a swim. Later we visited the Danjia fishing village by boat, which felt really special. Ended the evening at Linwang Night Market with grilled squid and coconut cakes. Such a fun and laid-back day in Sanya!"
