CHINA may seem a strange place to establish a resort hotel but the world is moving on. Hilton International, a British company, will later this year open the Sanya Resort & Spa, a low-rise beachfront resort in what has been hailed by tourism officials as the budding ”Hawaii of China”. Located in Yalong Bay on the southernmost tip of Hainan Island and separated from the mainland by 15 miles of the South China Sea, the luxury resort will be Hilton”s first Worldwide Resort in the People”s Republic of China and will form an important part of the growing network of seven Hilton hotels in China. Sanya is linked to Hong Kong with frequent 90 minute flights.
