Atlantis Sanya, the flagship resort on beautiful Hainan Island, opened its doors in time for Chinese New Year and welcomed its first guests. The opening of China’s first integrated entertainment resort is set to enhance Hainan’s incredible tourism proposition.
Located on the Haitang Bay National Coast, Atlantis Sanya is the first Atlantis resort in China, joining the flagship Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai as well as The Royal Atlantis Resort & Residences in Dubai and Atlantis, KoOlina in Hawaii, both currently in development.
Serge Zaalof, Chief Operating Officer Atlantis Resorts & Residences said, “The Atlantis brand is known for unique, ocean-themed destinations offering a wide variety of entertainment experiences and Atlantis Sanya is no exception. The owner, Fosun International, is an incredible partner and together we have created a resort that offers unprecedented experiences to its guests.”
Heiko Schreiner, Managing Director, Atlantis Sanya said, “Following an intense development period of long days and nights by a team of approximately 3,000 colleagues, we are proud to introduce Atlantis Sanya to our first guests and the public. When you combine 1,314 guestrooms including 154 suites, five of which are underwater suites, impeccable design from talents like Jeffrey Beers International and Hirsch Bedner Associates Design and an incredible water adventure at Aquaventure Waterpark, we know we are giving people unparalleled experiences new to Hainan Island and China, that only Atlantis can deliver.”
Built around the myth of The Lost City of Atlantis and overlooking the spectacular South China Sea, the resort offers exhilarating water play on Aquaventure Waterpark’s twisting waterslides, exploration of the ancient Atlantis civilization at The Lost Chambers Aquarium, which spans two floors, alongside the exotic marine creatures that reside there, and a look into the largest open-air aquarium in the world, The Ambassador Lagoon, through a viewing platform.
