It's more convenient for entry without excessive immigration control. The extended stays enable visitors to deeply explore and experience the magnificence of Sanya, the world-class tropical paradise. 

Located at the southernmost city of Hainan island, in China, Sanya is a popular holiday destination for global people with tropical climate and unique Chinese island culture. In Sanya, travelers will discover lots of sun-kissed tropical beaches that are perfect for relaxation. If you are an adventure lover, there are many water sports and beach activities available to you, including diving, surfing, jet skiing, and parasailing. If you are looking for various seafoods and local tropical fruits, don't miss out the Sanya First Market. Besides, it is filled with vendors that sell local products, clothes, souvenirs and much more. if you like hiking and mountain-climbing, Luhuitou Park is a good choice for you to see the panoramic view of Sanya on top of the mountain and interact with the adorable wild animals alongside the road.



I heard that Sanya, Hainan is like a combination of Florida and Hawaii, so it is best place to have our tan and enjoy the beautiful beaches.

Okay ladies, time to pack our bags and let’s go to Sanya, Hainan! Don't worry because there is a direct flight from Manila to Hainan via Hainan Airlines
