Capella Tufu Bay
Tufu Bay, Lingshui, China
Capella Tufu Bay makes an architectural statement through its circular entrance court, expansive public spaces and richly detailed rooms and villas. Jean-Michel Gathy and Bill Bensley shaped a resort that balances grand gestures with a residential feel. The spa and Lan Ting restaurant give the stay substance beyond its appearance. Tufu Bay is in neighbouring Lingshui rather than central Sanya, so this is a choice for settling into the resort and planning excursions deliberately.
