Shengteng Vacation Club at Howard Johnson Resort Sanya Bay

The resort and its setting

Shengteng Vacation Club operates inside the Howard Johnson Resort Sanya Bay, on Sanya Bay Road in Tian Ya district, Sanya. Guest reviews describe airy rooms with private balconies, a casual resort feel, multiple swimming pools, a spa, and breakfast for guests. The resort holds a strong 4.6 out of 5 rating from 43 Google reviews, which reflects consistent satisfaction with the rooms and on-site facilities rather than a large sample size — worth bearing in mind if you're researching before a purchase or rental.

As an independent, exchange-affiliated property, Shengteng Vacation Club isn't part of a global hotel chain's timeshare programme, but it is built around the Howard Johnson Resort infrastructure, so owners get hotel-style amenities alongside their timeshare week.

The area and things to do

Sanya is Hainan's main beach resort city, often described as China's tropical seaside getaway thanks to its year-round warm climate. Sanya Bay itself is a long, curving stretch of coastline lined with resort hotels, making it an easy base for beach time without needing a car. The city has a developed tourism infrastructure of restaurants, seafood markets, and waterfront promenades, and it's a short trip to some of Sanya's better-known natural and cultural sights. Visitors typically split their time between the beach directly in front of the resort and day trips further along the bay or into the surrounding hills.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at Shengteng Vacation Club and no longer use it, you can list it for private resale or rental on BidMyTimeshare.com. The marketplace works on a straightforward owner-to-owner basis: you set your own asking price, your listing is shown to buyers and renters searching for this resort, and interested parties contact you directly through the platform. Sellers pay a one-time listing fee to post their week — there's no commission taken on the sale itself.

As this is an independent, exchange-affiliated resort rather than a branded timeshare system, resale here is handled through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a corporate transfer department. Before agreeing on a price with a buyer, ask management for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee so both sides know the full cost upfront — these figures aren't published by the resort and can change from year to year. Also confirm what the week you're transferring is tied to: your fixed or floating week, unit type, and whether Interval International affiliation rights carry over to the new owner, since this resort is listed as an Interval International affiliate.

Renters usually look for confirmed dates, the unit size (studio versus one- or two-bedroom), and whether breakfast and pool access are included as part of the week, so have these details ready in your listing.

Practical notes

The address is in Tian Ya district, Sanya, Hainan, postal code 572000 — useful for arranging airport transfers or directions once a booking is confirmed. Because the resort is part of a hotel property, standard check-in and housekeeping services typically apply, but owners should confirm specifics with management rather than assume hotel-style flexibility extends to every unit type.
