Yup. Haikou is shit though. If the international airport and bullet train didn't go there, I'd never have to pass through. Fuck I hate that city. And yeah, if you don't like living amongst 8 million people in Sanya, then it's definitely not for you lollol.
One other thing I forgot to mention with rentals here, they come fully equipped. TV(cctv & cable), Kitchen, Bedroom, pots/pans/kitchen sink, Internet, phone and so on. All included in the rental price, our apt, pics as follows is 76sqm.

This property was 2500RMB or $395USD per month. My wife tells me today we could of got it even cheaper for around 2000RMB pm, if we had signed the rental contract in the off-peak tourist season. Live and learn. :Oh crap
