See what other travelers say about Mao Tower

Staying at Shanghai Sun Island Resorts was an absolute delight! The room was incredibly spacious, and our little one absolutely loved it—especially the slide that they couldn’t stop going down. It was a non-stop fun adventure for them. The bathroom was thoughtfully designed with a child-friendly sink, making it easy and safe for kids to use. The underfloor heating kept everything cozy and warm throughout our stay, which was perfect after a long day of exploring. What really stood out was the service—our guest coordinator, Xiao Shi, reached out via WeChat the day before arrival to share details about activities and helpful tips. So thoughtful! The hot spring area had both outdoor and indoor pools, and the indoor one was ideal for younger children. Our toddler had a blast splashing around in the gentle warm water. Everything about this resort felt welcoming, well-planned, and family-focused. If you're looking for a stress-free, joyful getaway with kids, this place is a top pick.
