Talking about Hainan, the southernmost island province of China, bright sunshine and blue ocean waters always come to people's minds. But it's not only humans that can enjoy the perks of island life as monkeys in Nanwan Monkey Island also have a private swimming pool.

Nanwan Monkey Island is located on the Nanwan Peninsula, and it is the only tropical island nature reserve for macaques in the world. Established in 1965, the nature reserve is home to some 400 species of tropical plants and nearly 100 species of animals. 

The island is partly open to tourists. Facilities like swimming pools were built only for monkeys.
