Great resort with a fantastic setup for bathing and sunbathing by the beach. Amazing breakfast and really great rooms. We were only a bit disappointed by the service during the lunches we had at the hotel. Would definitely like to come back!

Very relaxing and good offering of food and drinks. But very pricey. The hotel is very near Follonica and so would suggest eating out. Watersports hire is a huge bonus.

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.

Location was beautiful, exceptional facilities. Half the staff was phenomenal, the other half quite rude and condescending. Unfortunate, if not for a number of staff members, this place is perfect.

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.
