This is amazing spot in Sanya. You can enjoy being in the island, even you can take one or two days stays in this island. I enjoyed big buffet you can take any food you want. However, in the evening there is nothing to see. When I stayed for one night all shops and entertaining places were closed after 6 pm. And I have to swim in my hotel. But it is great place for taking good photos.

I did not have high expectations about this tourist spot, but was even more surprised about the beauty of Wuzhizhou Island. Especially the track trough the middle of the island is amazing, beautiful flower garden and little animals running around. Totally worth taking the trip from Sanya to here.

I was a bit apprehensive after reading mixed reviews but enjoyed my visit.
Not a cheap day but far from extortionate, very much geared for Chinese tourists but we are in China after all.
It is very crowded in parts but generally organised very well, transfer by boats was about 20 minutes wait time both ways not bad considering the numbers needing to be transported. Tour of Island by electric buggy cost about £7 per person and drinks and snacks were in my opinion pretty reasonable. There are a lot of extras you can send your money on if you want.
Managed to take some nice photos despite the crowds and enjoyed my visit and found it very enjoyable even though it is very much geared to the domestic tourist market. Half a day would be plenty of time in my opinion.

Very expensive and not clear why. The entrance fee is 144 yuan and is just a round trip ferry ticket. There are few pedestrian roads on the island itself, the most interesting thing (the full route around the island) is only available by purchasing a minibus ticket (60 yuan per person), and you need to buy it right at the ferry exit, but it’s worth it. I don’t recommend swimming only in a nook of 20*20 meters in a crowd of people.

Was an ok place to visit, highly commercialized. I didn’t find the beach or water better than other places in Sanya. We did the water activities (banana boat, motor boat etc), it was fun, but three activities for RMB300 per person. I find it is quite expensive for a family.

I have been overall pleasantly surprised by Sanya as it has some pretty cool stuff to do besides a clean beach with nice hotels. So I went to Wuzhizhou with some level of expectation since it was reviewed so highly on CTrip. I now stand corrected and realize that, like the island, most of the reviews are likely manufactured. One reviewer who I thought was probably just grouchy said that it’s just designed for selfies, and he or she was totally right. With names for random spots like “the trenches of love” (it is literally a small pit in the ground lined with concrete) and the “pathway of shade” (it is a shady 20-second walk up some stairs) you know you’ve walked into a classic Chinese tourist trap. It seems like the best options are probably overpriced water sports, riding in a helicopter, or wind “flying”. It’s really popular with mainlanders, so if selfies and riding around in a little overpriced shuttle-bus with googly eyes is your thing, do it. If not, save yourself 300rmb plus an expensive cab ride to get there. One star because it was awful, an extra star because it is pretty and it looks like someone put a lot of work into it.

Return ticket to the island cost 144rmb, passports required, or photo of passport on phone.
20 minute ferry trip, fleet of 6 ferries shuttling back and forth between this small island. Last ferry off the island 18:00.
Only one swimming beach, and only allowed to swim in one small roped off area. Jellyfish in the area as my wife found out. Security guards with with loud whistles keeping people (influencer's?) from climbing on rocks for "that" selfie.
Limited (very) food option's for families with picky children. Everything charged for.
Been once would not bother to come again.
Rated 3 for the veiws

Totally over commercialised to the point that it’s ruined. Also if you are a water family like us don’t go, there are literally signs all over saying no swimming, no climbing on rocks. We wanted to dive but was sold out by 9.30am. The bus rides are okay but expensive. If you enjoy walking about an island then go but if you love water and swimming then stay away. Back to Thailand next year can swim wherever. Shame.

This was a huge mistake! You are not allowed to swim anywhere besides one roped off area crammed with people. Try to relax on the beach and all you can hear is the security guards blasting their whistles telling people to get off the rocks or put of the water. Feels like an island prison. Not enjoyable at all. The beaches are perfect but no ones allowed to swim!!! What’s wrong here? Insanity. I’ve never been treated like a little child, not allowed to wade in the wade, why? Was told over and over too dangerous! There’s no waves, what’s the danger? Don’t ever come here unless you desperately need selfies of you standing on a beach in your street clothes and umbrella, face mask, and large hat.... also no one speaks English so prep your Chinese skills, 100% not for laowais.

Firstly expensive ferry ticket to somewhere you cannot swim. Lovely swimming pool but it’s only for diving lessons and wedding photos. Lovely beaches with soft sand but you can only baked in the sun and you touch the sea, you will be chased away by security. Reminded me of a refugee camp where are lots of people sleeping in restaurants and queueing for the water sports. If you’re going there to queue then please go but you want a realizing day on the beach then don’t bother. You’re better off saving the expensive 20 mins ride on a boat on a nice Gordon Ramsey meal in the Atlantis Hotel.
