Capella Sanya Overlooking the South China Sea to Open on Hainan Island

Capella Hotel Group and China Gezhouba Group Real Estate will bring the much-awaited Capella Sanya to the southern coast of tropical Hainan Island. Located in the secluded TuFu Bay, Capella Sanya pays homage to a Silk Road legend surrounding its location. The property will feature 190 exquisitely-designed rooms and villas amid lush gardens that overlook the South China Sea.

Themed and designed as a “collaborative art piece” by two of the world’s most celebrated, visionary ‘starchitects’, Jean-Michel Gathy and Bill Bensley, it is one of the hospitality industry’s most-anticipated openings in 2018. In styling Capella Sanya, the two world-renowned designers drew inspiration from a Chinese trader’s adventures along the historic trade route, encapsulating the rich culture and heritage of ethnic communities along the way Capella Sanya is not only a beach resort, but also a private sanctuary with intimate spaces and extraordinary places. Combined with contemporary design method and Chinese architectural essence, eastern complex and elegance flow from every detail. Natural elements such as water, wood and rocks can be seen everywhere, which reflect nature itself, stem from nature and meanwhile completely into nature which reviles the most expressive way of oriental spirit.
