I had stayed at the Ren in March and would slightly prefer the Nai Yang property although would consider returning to both for weekend trips depending on rates. Both are nice although not really 5-star resorts that provide good value for platinums especially in low season when rates are low.
I thought to try the Marriott Nai Yang but now I am not sure.
For me it is import to swim into sea. I looked at the tide/flood timetable the max peak last weekend was at 07:15 in the morning and 20:20 in the afternoon.
So even early in the morning it was not possible to swimm?

At Ren or JW you never have problem with tide but there is often a very strong current, big waves and problem with jellyfish.
