Unique Concept: The hotel's barefoot policy, where all areas are covered in fine sand, created a relaxing and grounding environment for guests. Many appreciated this unique experience as a way to connect with nature and unwind.

Outstanding staff. A unique destination. Restful. Great food, beautiful pool. Amazing spa nice Shisha, bars, a fun tourist shop. You arrive with the beautiful Eco Chic Sensations, on a quiet serene Beach. It’s a beautiful setting, white sand everywhere, palm trees, and the beach in view. We spent four days there, attended to all the time by the most amazing team of people. We had the best massages in the spa, well worth a visit. I’m going to miss some names here, but thanks to Sijha, Freda, Pius, Alex, Trisha, Helen, Cheri, Neema, and many more whose names I didn’t get. They all smiled so easily and could not have done more to make our stay better and fun. Oh and the Indonesian chef who does an Asian night - I can’t remember his name. Good food and lots of laughs. To all the team Asante Sana from both of us!

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.

We stayed here for our honeymoon in Zanzibar. Gorgeous hotel - rooms are lovely and the food is great. Your choice of beach or pool, and the best part is the hotel is no shoes, so you feel connected with earth. Staff were the best!

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!

Pradeep is excellent, he was arranged as the butler for us, he is very attentive to small details, available all the time, one message away and sorted out all issues. The people are the prize of this resort, very friendly, kind, pleasant and present. I wish I remembered all their names- Pews, Zabibu, Kevin and a name similar to ocean-ends with ...na, feel bad I can't recall her name, but she had the best smile. Spa was a disappointment, badly managed,poor communication with regards to appointments, wasted 45 minutes and had to cancel the appointment. The Tepenyaki dinner was amazing and so much fun with chef Iman, very entertaining yet humble as well. The food and location was amazing. It's all inclusive and has lots of options for food. The rooms are well maintained and clean. I don't know how the other Zanzibar resorts are to comment but compared to the resorts to the ones we have gone for the same price, the rating would be 7.5 and not a 9. It was good but not the best. Barefoot theme is nice. The photos of the place is better than in reality. Room for improvement- better coordination with the spa. Inclusion of gym if possible. Maintenance of rest of place requires improvement, seats near beaches and next to bar are stained. It needs to be maintained to keep up the standards and competition.

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.
