DFS Yalong Bay is at the heart of Yalong Bay, Sanya, the most established luxury coastal zone on Hainan Island, China’s designated free trade port. The scheme will include over 1,000 luxury brands including LVMH maisons across fashion, beauty, watches, jewellery, wines and spirits, and fine dining. DFS Group projects over 16 million visitors per year by 2030.

The landscape concept, Tropical Glamour, draws on Yalong Bay’s coastal setting to establish an outdoor shopping environment that feels like a seaside resort as much as a retail destination. Working within the constraints of an existing structure, the design prioritises well-shaded outdoor shopping streets that retain existing mature palm trees, preserving the site’s established tropical character while integrating contemporary luxury retail aesthetics. The result positions the outdoor realm as a an extension of the retail experience into a landscaped coastal environment.
The development is targeted to become Sanya’s leading luxury destination, positioned five minutes from over 12,000 five-star hotel rooms and 25 minutes from Sanya Phoenix International Airport.
