I had an incredible experience at Lanai Sensei Four Seasons Hotel. The atmosphere is wonderfully quiet and peaceful, surrounded by stunning natural beauty. The range of activities and classes offered is truly impressive, catering to both physical and mental well-being. It’s the perfect place to rejuvenate your soul. One of my favorite highlights was the hot tub—it was so relaxing and thoughtfully designed. The food was also excellent, with a variety of delicious and healthy options to choose from. Every aspect of my stay was exceptional, and I left feeling completely refreshed. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a serene and fulfilling retreat.

I liked the scenery and the natives but as far as the staff they're not friendly at all to natives or people of color. Its sad because its very costly to go there and then to be treated like an outcast.. I would not recommend people of color to go because they don't want you there and the guest there will treat you like your invisible, only the natives will be welcoming

The Sensei lanai property and hotel is increidble! This was one of the most if not the most relaxing stays we’ve ever had. Facilities are brand new and top of the line. Doing a spa treatment and time in the Hale is an absolute must. That being said, still a few kinks to work out with service level. We were dissapointed that the property boasts all of their activities (yoga, meditation, fitness etc) however had no spots open to participate. While I understand there are restrictions due to Covid, it would make sense to make sure to have enough options for guests of the hotel to be able to participate.

The Perfect Place to Relax

Sensei Lanai is the perfect place to relax. The landscaping on the grounds is absolutely stunning- feels like you're walking around Jurassic Park (but with no dinosaurs.) The only improvement I would make is I wish there was more dining options. The resort only has once restaurant (they have a bar that serves food, but it's basically the same menu and prices as the restaurant.) If you're planning to have a dinner down at the beach resort, definitely make reservations ahead of time. Overall, lovely stay and Sensei and would go back.
