SANYA, China, May 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Sanya Marriott Hotel Dadonghai Bay is now enabling guests to travel ever more brilliantly after completing construction on its final phase East Wing, an expansive building that encompasses 160 new rooms and suites, a giant glass lobby replete with waterfalls and gardens, exciting new restaurants, wellness and meeting facilities and more. Guest rooms and suites now total 452 at the ultramodern resort.
Nestled between waters of a nationally protected coral reef and the lushly carpeted mountains of Luhuitou Park, Sanya Marriott Hotel Dadonghai Bay is only 5 minutes by car from downtown Sanya and 25 minutes from the international airport. A private beach, dazzling architecture, giant Kid's Club and the longest infinity swimming pool in the city are among the property's original distinguishing features, and the addition of the new East Wing now raises the hotel's distinction to a whole new level.
New Interiors Accentuate Natural Beauty
Designed by internationally acclaimed hospitality specialists HBA, the 160 new guest rooms and suites have bright and comfortable interiors decorated in calming whites and natural woods, with accents of azure, crème, and jade. Floor-to-ceiling windows and large private balconies afford sweeping views of sparkling ocean, lush mountains, starry night skies and dramatic sunrises over Dadonghai Bay. Each new room has a large bathroom with separate bathtub and shower and THANN natural body care amenities, and comes with air conditioning, a writing desk and cable and satellite TV.
Immensely Enchanting Lobby
Expansive and cavernous, the new glass lobby is a 6,000 square meter split-level structure that exemplifies Marriott Hotel's practice of providing creativity-nurturing spaces suitable for both work and play. "The Great Room", as it is known, charms guests with an assemblage of waterfalls, small gardens and various zones that each have distinctive ambience and energy level.
On the ground level is The China Baking Company, a modern incarnation of the traditional Hong Kong bakery with glass-encased kitchen serving up freshly baked Cantonese delicacies, and Yogurt Inc., a colorful shop that offers healthy frozen yogurts with a range of delectable toppings. The new lobby also encompasses a bar serving coffee and pastries in the day and alcoholic beverages and snacks in the evening, a tea lounge offering an authentic local tea experience, 'community tables' with high chairs for social and business gatherings and an outdoor terrace with stunning ocean views.
Tantalizing New Tastes
F&B openings in the new East Wing also include Man Ho, a Chinese restaurant specializing in the cuisines of Hong Kong and Shandong province and boasting an extensive international wine list and uniquely themed private dining rooms, and Smoki Moto, a unique venue with a Japanese sushi bar, Korean BBQ, two private dining rooms with Teppanyaki stations and chic urban artwork.
The East Wing also has a new Executive Lounge where guests can gather throughout day and evening in an open living room or beside a large communal table to meet, eat, work and relax.
Where Unique Weddings and Functions Happen
With its picturesque location at the foothills of Sanya's most romantic scenic spot -- Luhuitou Mountain -- Sanya Marriott Hotel Dadonghai Bay is an ideal location for weddings, and couples wishing to tie the knot in unique fashion can now consecrate their love in the hotel's new avant-garde glass wedding chapel by the sea.
The new East Wing also adds a new 1,000 square meter lawn for outdoor celebrations, a new second bridal room and a 188 square meter multi-function room. The hotel also boasts a majestic 916-square-meter pillar-less Grand Ballroom that can be partitioned into four smaller spaces, a large foyer for receptions, numerous smaller meeting rooms and an expert wedding team that is singularly devoted to understanding and bringing to life each couple's personally unique vision for their wedding.
More Fun and Wellness
The 700 square meter Kid's Club at Sanya Marriott Hotel Dadonghai Bay has been made even more gigantic with the addition of an outdoor area in 200 square meters where little ones can play on rings, swings, slides and a special children's rock climbing installation.
Grownups will also find a range of new enjoyments, among them a brand new Quan SPA where professional masseurs and masseuses knead guests into blissful states of relaxation, a new 24-hour Health Club with state-of-the-art exercise machines and stunning views of the Dadonghai Bay, and new snooker and table tennis rooms.
