Hot Spas in Sanya, Hainan Island, China - October 2011



















During our visit to Sanya, Hainan Island, China we spent the afternoon after playing golf relaxing at the Hot Spa Pools which was quite a treat.

It was raining on and off which did not worry us as it was wet anyway in the water.  The hot Springs were a fascinating place made up of a multitude of choices of hot pools of varying temperatures and condiments IE coffee, coconut milk etc.  One of the pools had little fish that would nibble at the dry skin on your feet and legs (not a good thing if you are ticklish) see photo attached.

On paying 200 Yuan to enter the pools you are given a security locker and a dressing room, showers and towels before venturing out to the choice of pools to relax in.  There were meandering paths between the various pools, restaurants and a large cooling off pool as well as some fun pools with water slides and water dumps etc.   The gardens were lovely and I was very taken by the large teapot that was a water feature in one of the gardens.  I have put that on my wish list for the golf gardens.

It was a lovely after golf treat and a "must do"  if visiting Sanya.
