It has been said that Hainan is China's Paradise, so believe me when I say - it lived up to it's reputation. Beautiful weather, stunning stretches of golden beaches & breathtaking views.
I remember the moment I was sitting underneath this straw umbrella enjoying the gusts of wind that brushed gently from the waves. & that moment, I felt nothing, nothing but contentment. I don't remember the last time I felt so at ease, at ease with the world, at ease with myself. Everything just seemed to come together. & for the duration of the time I was sitting there, I just listened as the waves crashed against the shore. It was a picture of beauty, a feeling of serenity. The world just seemed to make sense ... It sounds strange, but it felt like I found myself again. Like the world was at my feet and I was ready for flight.
I spent a long weekend in Hainan, and for the time I was there I stayed at Hainan's BEST hotel.
Le Méridien! Many of you may have heard of it, as it's an international hotel brand. Being a traveller, I have stayed at some of the best hotels - but maybe due to it's location & the experiences I had there - this hotel just ticked every box from room service to views. The picture above was taken from the Hotel Lobby.
Being Chinese I do believe that Feng Shui brings an element of luck. The front of the hotel faces the ocean, and the back is carried by the hills. (Meaning it faces the world of opportunities & has a stable/reliable source to back it up)
It was a beautiful get away & I would highly recommend it for people who just want time alone, to get away, or just to think. This place is also PERFECT for lovers, a gentle scroll along the beach would sweep anyone off their feet.
