Sensations Eco-Chic Hotel

A huge thank you to all the staff—from the Masaii team to the chefs, bartenders, and waitresses. Special thanks to Ibrahem, Freida, Pusi, Etse, and Shija, who made our stay unforgettable. From a magical beachfront birthday dinner to our beautifully decorated room and lovely chats at breakfast, the bar, and pool—everything was Hakuna Matata. The food is amazing, and the evening wine tastings were a delightful highlight. The barefoot concept felt unusual at first, but we quickly embraced it. We also loved our beach couples massage—it was heavenly. The only small downside was the nearby construction noise Lastly, while the hotel is luxurious, it would be great to see it give back to the local village nearby, helping support and uplift the surrounding community.

It was so awesome. Pradeep the butler/manager/server was the best there is! He made the place great. Willing to do anything and goes above and beyond for anyone. Would make the best employee at any company! Along with everyone else… everyone was super kind and attentive to help with anything. Amazing food, sand, pools, vibes and drinks! Not wearing shoes for an entire week might actually be one of the best things ever… would highly recommend coming here. The peace you get relaxing here is the best I’ve experienced. The drive in is a little strange and the tides of the ocean is a bummer during low tide, but you forget about it the second your feet are in the white soft sand at the resort.

This place is so relaxing - the reviews don’t lie, you don’t wear shoes here. Everything is white sand and you dip your feet in water before entering your wonderful chalet with its gorgeous bed and refreshing shower. We even watched the bush babies at night. All inclusive is essential and you will do nothing here, just lie by the pool or the beach and read and eat their wonderful food. The jewel in their crown is the staff who are so lovely they are second to none.

My birthday celebration at Sensations Eco Chic Hotel was a magical experience from start to finish. Upon arrival to Sensations, we were greeted with a cold drink, a cloth to refresh our hands, our luggage prepared for the room, and we were informed at reception to remove our shoes because our stay would be entirely barefoot moving forward . This was a surprise that warmed my heart and set the tone for a truly unique retreat. The hotel’s use of lush green fencing and natural landscaping brought a sense of seclusion, calm, and harmony with nature. Surrounded by greenery and just steps from the beach, every corner feels private, peaceful, and beautifully connected to the environment. Majestic Buddha statue always standing by the greenery. Our villa was nothing short of a dream: impeccably clean and well-equipped. It featured a private swimming pool and an exclusive in-villa spa. A spacious deck provided the perfect spot to relax outdoors. The natural fencing of the villa made this became our personal sanctuary. We felt at home. Culinary experiences across the resort were equally unforgettable. Whether it was the sumptuous breakfasts, exquisite meals at the restaurants, or a morning cup of premium coffee in the comfort of our room, every aspect showcased impeccable service and quality. The crown jewel of our stay was the teppanyaki dinner. Chef Iman dazzled us with his extraordinary skills and humor, transforming dinner into an entertaining showcase that made my birthday completely memorable. The entire team joined in the celebration, creating a genuine sense of connection that lingered long after the meal. Every facet of Sensations Eco Chic Hotel—from its tranquil spa and breathtaking surroundings to its sincere, attentive service—ensured that our celebration was deeply unforgettable. I already miss that barefoot bliss and the incredible feeling of freedom, and I can’t wait to return. Well done and thanks to all. Keep at it!

Sensations Eco Chic is a complete DREAM!! It was as if I was I was in Bali. The treatment and service is top notch. Everything was beautiful- from the set up, pool to the Deluxe room that has an outdoor shower. The food was exemplary and it was a total getaway. I had proper quality time with my partner. The GM, Mr Vijay was the BEST. He made sure we were taken care of and he was ensured we enjoyed our stay throughout. I will definitely visit again. This property is worth every penny.

**A Sanctuary of Love, Luxury & Connection – A Stay at Sensations Eco Chic Hotel, Zanzibar** From the very moment we stepped into Sensations Eco Chic Hotel, we were embraced not as guests, but as cherished family. Warm smiles, gentle welcomes, and a heartfelt sense of love greeted us at the villa doors, instantly melting away the stress of our travels. The team here, from every staff member to the management, radiates a unique kindness and bubbly spirit that makes you feel at home—effortlessly. Sensations is a barefoot resort, a concept that may seem unconventional at first, but in truth, it’s one of the most grounding, beautiful experiences we’ve ever had. Feeling the earth beneath your feet, the soft sand, the cool wooden floors—there’s something deeply centering and soulful about it. A true reconnection to nature. Although we arrived late, our journey began with the most incredible welcome the following morning: an invigorating foot scrub that set the tone for the relaxation and indulgence that followed. It was an unexpected, thoughtful touch that instantly put us in a state of calm. **The culinary experience** at Sensations is nothing short of a dream. Mornings begin with a delightful selection of both hot and cold breakfast options, featuring the freshest tropical fruits and warm, comforting dishes, all served with breathtaking views of the ocean. Lunch is à la carte with every dish bursting with flavor, while dinner is a spectacular 7-course tasting menu. You can indulge in as many dishes as your heart desires, and every bite tells a story—rich, complex, and artfully presented. The all-inclusive nature of the resort ensures you're never left wanting, only continuously amazed. Our first night was spent at the teppanyaki experience, where a skillful chef entertained us with an engaging, high-energy performance while simultaneously serving the most divine food. It was a night filled with laughter, delicious wine, and incredible flavors—a memory we’ll never forget. **The villa itself** is spotless, tranquil, and simply stunning. For someone with a love for cleanliness and precision, it’s an OCD dream come true. Every detail is immaculately attended to—from the comforting scent of the in-house lotions and shower gels (which linger on your skin like a soft tropical breeze) to the meticulous nightly turn-down service. After dinner, we returned each night to find our mosquito nets beautifully draped open, our bed gently laid out, and the space prepared to invite us into peaceful rest. The small gestures made the biggest difference. Whether you’re lounging by the warm, serene pool or relaxing on one of the many beach loungers with the ocean just steps away, every corner of the resort whispers relaxation. We loved how the hotel’s layout allows for privacy and peace, while still being social and inviting. Shams and Pradeep, the incredible managers, made our stay even more special. Their warmth, attentiveness, and sincerity stood out—they wer
