The Sanya EDITION
Sanya, Hainan, China · Virtuoso · 2026 benefits

The Sanya EDITION is part of Virtuoso’s exclusive Regional Program for Asia & Pacific. Nestled in Haitang Bay, The Sanya EDITION is a distinctive destination offering unexpected experiences for the next generation of luxury travelers. Water, a source of vitality and serenity, plays a central role in our resort, which features a spectacular "private ocean"—replete with a charming floating table and secluded cabanas. This sense of elevated luxury and indigenous beauty is established at our hotel's reception area, where a pool and live bamboo grove serve as a counterpoint to a curated art gallery displaying the work of renowned artists. All of the 501 guestrooms in the horseshoe-shaped hotel…
Spanning 50 lush acres on Hainan Island’s southern tip, The Sanya EDITION is a luxury escape you’ve got to see to believe. The 11 glass-enclosed villas boast amenities like rainforest showers and private pools. And each of the 501 guest rooms has an incredible ocean view thanks to the resort’s horseshoe-shaped design. You’ll find unique spaces when it comes to dining as well, including Xian Hai by the Sea, a floating restaurant on the property’s private ocean.
