Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Binlian

Close to everything, but quiet.

I arrived at the Sheraton Haikou directly from the MGM Grand Sanya, and without a doubt, the Sheraton was a much nicer experience in many aspects. Check-in at the Sheraton (I am a foreign tourist, so I understand there are procedures to be undertaken) was under five minutes, whereas it took about 45 minutes at the MGM Grand, and they could immediately process a credit card payment, whereas the MGM Grand staff had to firstly locate such a machine and then find a second one after the first didn't function. One truly superior feature of the Sheraton is its live music and lobby bar. I enjoyed every second of the multilingual singer and keyboardist, who alternated between English- and Chinese-language songs. This was complemented by the central location of the bar (which allowed for people watching in the lobby) and a relaxing, dimly lit atmosphere. No such central bar exists at the MGM Grand Sanya, where their singers' English-language songs were practically incomprehensible to native speakers, as they clearly must not have been born, raised, or studied in an English environment. The Sheraton has a very lush, tropical tree-filled outdoor walkway leading to the resort's pool and beach that is particularly beautiful at nighttime, and the Breeze restaurant had a wonderful selection of international foods with great wait staff service. Lastly, the housekeeping staff was incredibly efficient, detailed, and responsive.

Highly recommend. Lora provided free shuttle from the airport and the hotel is excellent! Clean and new.
