I'm afraid that the transport you mentioned cannot work. You can take the airport shuttle bus Wenchang line to Wenchang Bus Station and take a taxi to your hotel to finish the final 2km.

No, nearly all the shops close after 23:00 and you'd better prepare some by yourself.

The taxi fare would be very expensive and it is not recommended. It costs over CNY 800. Staying one night in Haikou and then transfering to Sanya the next is better.
