The property itself is simply stunning!! It is very relaxing and a beautiful atmosphere. The service provided by every staff member was one of the best I have received in my many travels over the years. The resort is highly recommended. I would stay here again in a drop of a hat. It is located within 4 miles of the cute town of Follonica where you can find lots of shopping and dining options.

Amazing experience

Amazing resort!! Get the half board it was great food experience for the price. You get treated as a vip all the time. Get the florentine steak it is great ! You get 4 course meals. Clean, air condition is great, quality is amazing . Gps or apple map or google do not give accurate location, so you end up waisting 20 minuted going in circles. Put their restaurant address in apple or google and you will reach the hotel . The restaurant’s name is Eatè by pipero

We had such a wonderful 3-night stay at the Sense Experience Resort! The room was very comfortable and clean and the sea view from the balcony was gorgeous. The private beach as well as all the other facilities (swimming pool, tennis court, bikes, watersports) made the experience so relaxing and fun, especially as it was all included and very convenient. Breakfast buffet also had a wide range of options and tasted great! Staff were always so kind and helpful. The hotel itself is also a short 20-min cycle away from the main town with lots of nice restaurants, and even more beaches.

Everything was fantastic! Only reason I am not giving it a full 10/10 is the food. The Michelin restaurant on the beach that the hotel offers was horrible! It was minimum 140$ per person for 3 courses there were tons of bugs flying around and getting on the food and the food had no flavor, wasn’t properly cooked (the “al dente” pasta was crunchy), and anything with seafood tasted like fishy salt water and nothing else (only exception was the cuddlefish which was okay). The restaurant surrounded by glass was good the seafood however still consisted of that similar saltwater flavor and nothing else. Aside from that the hotel was fantastic! Clean, great service, and beautiful views!
