Blonsai Tropical Rainforest Holiday Manor (Baoting Yanoda Branch)

Mixed review. Overall wasn't bad, but the listing/photos are misleading and I wouldn't have stayed here knowing the experience in advance. Positives: - Good service from staff - Walking distance (10 mins) from Yanuo forest - Short taxi (15 mins) to Binlang ethnic village Negatives: - Mold in shower + cockroach in hairdryer bag - Photos and description misleading, we booked the Spring Bud Germination Double Bed Room but were told it doesn't come with a pool upon arrival so were 'upgraded' to the Autumn Rhyme pool, which also didn't come with a private pool as is listed (there is a shared pool available) - Did not see any other guests during our stay, feels very remote and isolated - Photos were slightly misleading; e.g., there is no private pool for the villas

The location was perfect for visiting the park. I have nothing else positive to say about the place. Loud guest shouting outside our window and balcony kept us up.

From the photographs we were really looking for to our trip to bulongsai but unfortunately it did not meet our expectations. It is a shame because you can tell that when the place first opened it must have been truly beautiful but it has run down since then. The room itself is modern and the TV is great with lots of free foreign films, the maid is kind and topped up our water and towels everyday but it could be cleaner. There was a lot of hair and dust in the room and the pool was a little dirty. The main pool was a little dirty too and the pool guy just seemed to sit their on his phone all day long. The kitchen waitresses were lovely and thank you to the receptionist for helping us book a taxi but the overall impression is that everyone is tired and not bothered by the state of the hotel. The scenery is beautiful but even the paddy fields are a little unkept. Finding food is a mission. The hotel restaurant is nice and there are a few little bare minimum shops on the site but be aware that the location is in the middle of nowhere far away from the beaches of Sanya. There is a little petting zoo and it seems like a good place for children. The hotel itself was advertised as a villa but really you just get a room like any other hotel. The hotel is mixed in with a rural village so be aware if you are foreign you will get a lot of strange looks and stared at often but on the whole everyone is friendly. I have mixed feelings about this place. It just needs rejuvenating which would not be too hard if the staff were a little more proactive and if there were more things in the area and food options it would be better. Yanoda park is not far from the hotel, I'd say if you're only planning to stay a couple of nights it's ideal but a week was far too long for us. Oh and the breakfast was good overall if you like Chinese food. The zhongzi was my favourite.

This is a really nice new hotel and it’s only minutes from Yanoda National Park. The check in service was good, they don’t speak English but we translated easily on our phones. I booked the boutique villa and it was nice, although alittle damp. It would have been nice to be able to open the windows for some fresh air and breeze to get the must away – but there were no screens and being on the first floor wasn’t ideal to leave windows wide open for bugs to come in. The ‘window’ was overlooking another building so it was rather dark. Comfy beds, nice shower and amenities and 10 steps from a wonderful pool that overlooked the premise. There is a nice raised walkway over awetland and rice field which was lit up at night and perfect for an after-dinner stroll. The platform in the middle was perfect for my morning yoga! The restaurant serves nice, fairly priced food – although for this price, I would have expected breakfast to be included in the room rate which it wasn’t. I’d stay here again though! It’s about an hours drive from Pheonix airport.

We only stayed here one night (we were visiting Yanoda Rainforest Park) and we were pretty tired from the day’s activities so we weren’t able to get a strong impression of the property. However, it did seem quite nice compared to some other places in the area, and the on-site restaurant was a plus. All of the buildings look fairly new and the style of the rooms is neat. We saw a pool on the first floor, but it’s not clear if it was a private pool or accessible to all guests. There are some small shops in the compound selling drinks and snacks that are open pretty late. A plus of this property is that it’s close to the park, though you should definitely get a car to take you to the ticket office since Yanoda Park has a very long driveway at the property entrance.

Best place for leave! I have been leaving in Hainan already for 10 years, but never know that’s we have so peaceful and beautiful resort near of yanoda. Perfect stay. Thanks a lot for manager 佳佳，she is so careful and nice.

+ Schöne Hotelanlage + seeehr bequeme Betten + gutes Zimmer - generell etwas ungepflegt - Swimming Pool ungepflegt (fast unebnutzbar) - kein warmes Wasser in der Dusche

酒店房間乾淨，我們住在二樓不潮，也沒有異味。房間設施都挺好。酒店周邊空氣清新，開車幾分鐘就有農家飯莊吃飯，離呀諾達很近。高價位的入住早餐太一般了，第一天每人一份，唯一的菜就是榨菜（鹹菜）。

位置就在呀諾達的對面，特別適合帶孩子來。酒店在一個村子裏麪，供孩子們玩的特別多。就是早餐有點差。
