The Westin Shimei Bay Resort

Six kilometers of beachfront along Hainan's southeast coast, with Vatica Mangachapoi Forest at the resort's back and Jiajing Island floating just offshore, sets the scene here. The Westin Shimei Bay is a full-scale beach resort with nearly 400 rooms and villas, four restaurants including Cantonese and Hainan cooking and a teppanyaki grill, and a spa for when the surf at nearby Riyue Bay has done its worst.
