The Intercontinental Sanya Resort is in Sanya, Hainan, China\u2019s tropical island and comprises of a hotel with 350 rooms and related facilities. The hotel stretches from a busy entertainment spine to the natural forest of the rocky point.<\/p>\n
One third of the rooms are located in a 10-storey curved linear block that frames the arrival space. Two thirds of the rooms are located in huge water courtyards, and are more resort-like in feel. These rooms are an innovative hybrid of detached villas and room blocks. Each room has a private open air garden bathroom, and a detached cabana that is reached via a bridge or garden. The cabanas sit within the huge watergardens, each a hectare in size.<\/p>\n
The design combines masterplanning, landscape, architecture and interiors to set up a series of views and vistas to the sea, framed by coconut trees, reflected in water, and then reframed again with stone, timber and fabric, ensuring every room has a special view. The design of the various public areas varies from urban and formal to casual and beachy, allowing the hotel to address many different markets and customers.<\/p>\n
The entire resort is designed as a patchwork of inhabited gardens, giving a foreground\u00a0 to the views of the owner\u2019s highrise apartments behind. The design is inspired by Chinese screens, palaces and compounds, interpreted in a contemporary fashion. The huge precast concrete screen is an aperiodic mathematical tiling.<\/p>\n
The hotel is designed to sustainable principles. Passive energy saving design (large overhangs, natural light, cross-ventilation, shaded courtyards, and planted roofs), use of indigenous seasonal landscape and water conservation and recycling are some of the strategies used.<\/p>\n","images":false,"video":"","video_title":"","thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.woha.net\/prod\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/SANYA-thumbnail.jpg","client":"\u4e09\u4e9a\u9e7f\u56de\u5934\u65c5\u6e38\u533a\u5f00\u53d1\u6709\u9650\u516c\u53f8","full_addresss":"\u4e2d\u56fd\u6d77\u5357\u7701\u4e09\u4e9a\u5e02\u9e7f\u5cad\u8def27\u53f7\uff0c572000","city":"\u4e09\u4e9a\u5e02","google_maps_link":"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/1dcm4wy9NewBqeKC6","completion":"16\/06\/2010","collaborator":"","size":"100,548","ebrochure_link":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/scl\/fi\/773x2jz2y7ejue67nuw86\/InterContinentalSanya.pdf?rlkey=8j6wkg4b8fj6y0xqenr3e79fs&dl=1","ebrochure_path":"\/Consultants\/WOHA_Favorite Medium\/WOHA website\/Project PDFs\/InterContinentalSanya.pdf","green_plot_ratio":{"label":"Green Plot Ratio","value":""},"community_plot_ratio":{"label":"Community Plot Ratio","value":""},"civic_generosity_index":{"label":"Civic Generosity Index","value":""},"ecosystem_contribution_index":{"label":"Ecosystem Contribution Index","value":""},"self_sufficiency_index":{"label":"Self Sufficiency Index","energy_label":"Energy","energy":"","food_label":"Food","food":"","water_label":"Water","water":""},"related_awards":"","design_inception":"08\/11\/2006","show_completion_date":["true"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=1712"},{"taxonomy":"project_status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project_status?post=1712"},{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=1712"},{"taxonomy":"system","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/woha.net\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/system?post=1712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
