What is the difference between Hainan and Hawaii?

About 7,000 kilometers from Hainan Island to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the isolated island is Hawaii, which is famous in the eyes of tourists all over the world. As a tropical island, Hainan Island is in China. What's the difference?

Judging from the quality of tourists and personal consumption, Hainan is not as good as Hawaii.

It's about 3,700 kilometers from Los Angeles to Honolulu Lu Lu, Lu Lu badminton. Before the outbreak of the epidemic, about 6.5438+million tourists came to this archipelago every year, including about 3 million American tourists, nearly 2 million Japanese tourists, about 200,000 China tourists, and the rest were Australian and European tourists. Hawaii's daily per capita consumption is about $290, and its annual tourism income is about $654.38+0.6 billion. The contribution of tourism is about 265.438+0% of Hawaii's total GDP, of which Oahu Island and Hawaii Island, where the state capital Lu Lu badminton is located, account for about 75%.

Before the outbreak, Hainan Island received more than 70 million tourists every year, most of whom were domestic tourists and about 450,000 were foreign tourists. The annual tourism revenue is about 654.38+000 billion yuan, and the per capita consumption is about 65.438+0.5 of that of Hawaii, which contributes about 28% to the total GDP of Hainan Island, and the dependence on tourism is extremely high, especially in Sanya, which reaches about 65%.

The gap in this respect is that the gap between international tourists is too big, and the gap between the per capita consumption level of tourists is too big.

There is a big gap in consciousness, facilities and urban construction.

Hawaii has not experienced too many strategic planning fluctuations. From the beginning, it was established with military industry, agriculture and tourism. Each island has its own emphasis, and its purpose can be summarized as two, one is the sustainable development of nature, and the other is the preservation and inheritance of traditional culture.

This kind of natural sustainable development is reflected in all aspects, including roads, docks, human settlements and nature. Urban construction is well integrated with tropical areas, and the proportion of urbanization is high. In addition, Hawaii did not develop real estate on a large scale, destroying forests, wetlands and mangroves, cutting off rivers and resettling aborigines, and went to Waikiki Beach, the most famous beach in Oahu, where more than 77% of tourists and nearly1/kloc-0 five-star hotels and 30,000 rooms were concentrated, but the beach was not blocked because it was public. Some natural landscapes are not closed, some hiking routes are trodden by tourists themselves, and some places are free.

Maui, Hawaii

As for public facilities, I mainly go to Dadonghai, 4A scenic spot, privately contracted shower and dressing room, and 20 yuan/person for swimming in Sanya. The price is not a problem, mainly because there is a small room, a few sprinklers, a plastic chair to change clothes, and the smell is still there. The problem is that it has been like this since 20 10. Hawaii is a public facility. Sprinklers are erected on the beach. The short ones are for washing feet. The dressing room is under a tree on the other side of Beach Road. Although it is very old, it is clean and free.

The other is the direct drinking water and public transportation system, which was built in Dadonghai before, but people may often fetch water, wash fruits and throw tea leaves, and then it was abandoned. I want to say that it takes time to improve the quality, but you can't stop eating because you choke. You won't provide free facilities. Although free things will attract cheap people, you can't give up free facilities for tourists just because there are cheap people.

Hawaii's public transportation system extends in all directions, and it can be reached almost anywhere, and the vehicles conform to the tropical customs. The drivers are extremely cheerful and lively, and the carriages are clean. There are no advertisements posted, and there are no TV advertisements.

The other is the identification system. From Honour Lu Lu badminton International Airport and Kona International Airport on the Hawaiian island, we can see that the airports are not high, even cool, but they are very big, with a distinctive feature, such as renting a car, leaving the airport next to it, taxis and buses at a glance. It designs passages, signs and guides to make a new visitor feel smooth and comfortable. Instead of just designing, just doing, just looking good, not whether soft things are comfortable.

The sign system on the road is in harmony with the surrounding buildings in terms of color, size and height. This is not a signal, but a signal. The municipal government is the municipal government. You do what you want, I do what I want. For example, there are several bus stops in Hainan, warning signs on the roadside and several intersections. One by one, Poles are standing on the sidewalk. There is also a sign in the restaurant, which reads "Use public chopsticks, don't waste", the same slogan of three departments, and then stick it on the wall of the restaurant, and so on. In this regard, there is indeed a gap between Hainan Island and Hawaii in the creation of tourism environment.

In addition, the local culture, the Posner culture before the Kingdom of Hawaii, the lighthouse on Kwai Ai Island, the Aranyi Palace in Honolulu, and various festivals in Hawaii are all combined with life tourism, such as the hula dance in Hawaii, which is both a performance and a life, various cultural activities in Hawaii, food festivals in China, flea markets and even lion dancing. It is a good combination of traditional culture and tourism, and it is no longer similar to the Li village in Hainan.

As far as the service is concerned, as long as there is a phenomenon of cheating customers in all tourist destinations and you don't tell whether to charge, you can tell the charge after enjoying the project. There are detours in Hawaii and Hainan, such as the hotel calling a taxi, Kilauea volcano taking a bus and so on. However, tourism in Hawaii advocates Aloha culture. Hawaiians are more enthusiastic than Hainanese, who feel alienated from tourists, especially mainland tourists. Judging from the experience of tourism service, the gap in Hainan is still very large.

In terms of urban planning and construction, Hainan is incomparable. Hawaii's urban planning and tourist areas are well integrated with rural fields, and even old buildings are integrated with the surrounding environment. Because of the multiple construction and planning of Hainan Island, there are many urban villages in Haikou and Sanya. As a whole, there is a big gap between Hainan Island and other cities, which cannot be solved, and it is by no means a short time.

Price, this has something to say.

The following units are all in RMB, which is easy to understand. The peak season in Hawaii is similar to that in Hainan Island, probably a little later. From February of 65438 to April of the following year, the hotel price will double at this time. Since July this year, the prices of hotels in Waikiki Beach, such as Trump Hotel, Ritz-Carlton, Ritz-Carlton Sanya, Fermon and Sanya, have been about 4,700 yuan, 4,600 yuan and 2,700 yuan respectively. But the cheap hotels near Waikiki are all between 450 and 800 yuan. In this regard, Hainan still has a comparative advantage in accommodation, including high-end and low-end hotels. Apart from the crazy price increase during the Spring Festival, if you choose to travel in the off-season, Hainan Island still has an advantage in accommodation.

Food and beverage expenses, I have eaten. One is China Seafood Restaurant, Boston lobster around 280 yuan, wild Hawaiian grouper 1.5 kg 290 yuan; The fried tuna in the seafood market is about 128 yuan/plate; Fish and chips are about 1 12 yuan, grilled Bahai fish is about 120 yuan, etc. Japanese fast food beef bone Dandan Noodles, about 105 yuan; American food, beef burgers, Mexican beef tortillas around 90 yuan; Mexican fried fish tucker is more than 90 yuan, and Mexican land and sea double tucker 105 yuan or so; Whole milk 24 yuan; Hot cocoa 24 yuan, T-bone steak 150 yuan and so on.

On the island of Hawaii, there are McDonald's, KFC, Pizza Hut, Burger King and other fast food restaurants. Beef burger set meal 70-around 80 yuan, Coke 8 yuan can be refilled; Outdoor bar at night, Kona beer produced on Hawaiian island, 60 yuan/liter or so. These are probably more than 40-50% of Hainan's consumption, and only Starbucks is similar, with a cup of more than 30 yuan.

In this respect, the general catering consumption in Hainan Island is still competitive.

The gap between language and traffic

Hawaii has a natural affinity for tourists from English-speaking countries, and English is the first choice for all people who don't know the language to communicate with each other. However, English is not very popular in Hainan. Except for five-star hotels, the English of service staff and signs is not bad, and other public places and facilities are ordinary, so there is a big gap in attracting international tourists. It will take a long time to shorten this gap.

Hawaii seems to be far away from the mainland, but it takes advantage of the position of the center of the Pacific Cross. One of them is a cruise ship, the second is a yacht and sailboat, and the third is a route. The home port of Honolulu on Oahu is the home port of American cruise ships, second only to Miami, and about 2-4 cruise ships spend the night here every day. In the same period, there were only 140 cruise ships in Hainan, and few of them stayed overnight. Many of them were invited to inspect the routes. The convenience of Honolulu's home port is that cruise ships passing through the Pacific Ocean will stop here, which is its natural advantage. At this point, the gap between Hainan Island is relatively large.

The second is yachts and sailboats. These tourists are luxury consumers. They set off from the last port in their own sailboat, and then stopped in Hawaii, went on vacation, went to clubs, participated in competitions, and supplemented before traveling. However, there are few such guests in Hainan Island.

The third is the air route. There are many airports in Hawaii. There are three major international airports, namely, Honolulu Lu Lu badminton International Airport in Oahu, Kona and Shiloh International Airport on the main island of Hawaii, and Honolulu Lu Lu badminton International Airport is 4F Airport. A Honolulu Lu Lu badminton airport has nearly 300,000 flights, which is the sum of Haikou and Sanya. It's near everywhere except Europe.

Intuitively, it seems that the degree of internationalization of Hainan Island is an important gap, but as a tourist, I think the small details are bigger, and it is almost impossible to solve the hard things in a short time or fundamentally, but from some small details, Hainan should see the gap with Hawaii and make up for it. Of course, Hainan Island should not sell itself short. Hainan, like Hawaii, has mountains, seas, forests and fruits. It is a whole and has convenient transportation. High-speed rail connects east, west, north and south, and a more developed railway and highway network will be built in the future. And close to the mainland, domestic tourists are still the most important source of tourists in Hainan. Hainan Island should be diligent in making up shortcomings, not making abacus beads, and the country should work harder, be self-vigilant and self-motivated.
