Arcadia Resort Hainan

Nice place. Receptionist was very helpful. Clean room, easy to access beach nearby. Buffet was average. Breads were not fresh. Meat were smelly. I couldn't enjoy breakfast much.

We checked out 2 nights early because we were very unsatisfied despite knowing we would received no refund. On checkout, the staff were reluctant to assist and help us. We got a staff’s wechat who often assisted us during the stay. The check in took unnecessarily long and staff didn’t tell us the WiFi code, didn’t say that most of the restaurants were closed, and didn’t say which hours the restaurant was open. The room was not clean upon check in and telephone to call reception didn’t work. The breakfast was really terrible (except the coffee when the machine was working), fruit over ripe, bugs crawling around by the food, the restaurant food is horribly overpriced, a lot of meals on the menu were unavailable, and over the Chinese New Year period there were hardly any stores to order through *******. We got stuck inside the elevator twice for a few minutes until it started moving again. The emergency stairwells are covered in mold and maintenance items making it dangerous if there was ever a need to use the stairs in an emergency. The hotel is old and while the gardens are well kept, only 1 of the 3 pools were open. You can’t sit on the grassy areas as there are biting ants everywhere. You can’t sit in the forest because the grass is covered in spiky seed pods. You can’t sit by the pool because there are only 3 deck chairs. Very limited outdoor sitting spaces. Hot water was sporadic and the shape of the bath was not functional unless you lay down completely. The room was not serviced daily, and we had to ask repeatedly for 3 towels despite staying in a “family room” that comes standard with an extra bed for three people. The way the hotel is shaped means that everyone looks into each other’s rooms from the balcony unless you are right on the very corner. The beach was completely covered in garbage and litter, lots of firework boxes washing into the sea. Beach unsafe to walk barefoot because of broken glass. The walk ways are not very convenient if you have a child in a stroller as they are broken. Very very misleading advertising and misleading representation on this app. I would not recommend staying here at all. In terms of location the sea is too rough and full of rocks to swim and there is no way you could do any water sports.

酒店離陵水高鐵站15分鐘車程，高速紅角嶺出口2公里即到。周邊是村子，出門吃飯比較遠，有家一畝芳甜外賣的清補涼，斑斕飲、陵水酸粉非常好，可以試試。早餐能吃飽，買含早的房型比較方便，有小童樂園，有泳池，8區出口邊上的小童泳池區域有陰涼，全天可以玩水，好像暑期下午三點都有泡泡大戰，比較適合孩子玩水。
