The pictures and description do not match the property at all. There was no indoor pool, spa, sauna or any other amenities for leisure and entertainment, despite the fact that they were all mentioned in the description. The lobby and stairs leading up to the room were extremely dirty and not maintained properly. The rooms are not soundproof. The shower door was unstable, and got stuck halfway while trying to open it. The resort did not provide soap or towels until we asked for them. And even then, the towels were a bit wet and didn’t seem very clean. There was a hairdryer installed on the wall, but the cable was too short and it could not reach the power outlet. Extremely poor engineering! We had booked the room to enjoy the indoor pool mentioned in the description, but as it turns out, there was no indoor pool. However, we had to stay in the room because the weather was awful and we could not leave.

The hotel was lovely, Carolina the hotel manager made us feel very welcomed and made sure every day if we were happy or needed anything, the staff there were very accommodating. I would definitely recommend this hotel and the price was reasonable for this time of year. I would definitely come back next year.

Thieves don't stay there, I got robbed!
I was robbed in this hotel, I left my money in my carry on bag in the room considering it safe like hundreds of the decent hotels I stayed in around the world but I was wrong, 1 hour before I leave to the airport I wanted to take my money I put in the bag but only found the change left there while they took all the 500 bills. I complained to the hotel manager who was frustrated with the event but when she called the hotel owner who told her to wait & do nothing I was extremely disappointed, I called the police who wanted me to come to the station to file a report but I had a flight in less than 2 hours I would have missed it if I did (I almost missed it). Hotel management promised to look at the cameras & investigate & return my money back but of course no feedback once I left the hotel! They were only fast in debiting my credit card with the full amount of my stay. Except for the manager & one receptionist most of the hotel crew are not professional & lack experience beside having thieves among them. Don't stay there,

Nice hotel overall, but not worth repeating
Overall staying at this hotel was a pleasant experience. Having said that, however, I don't think we would stay here again. For starters, the 'sea view' in the deluxe room was more of a pool view, which wasn't very appealing in the winter with an empty pool. You could only see a small sliver of the sea from our room which was disappointing. People should also consider that the balconies are not private and the rooms are not soundproof at all - my husband and I could hear our neighbors or people walking/talking outside in the hallway. Additionally, the breakfast, while generous, was not very appetizing. The one thing we really enjoyed about this place was the location; there are plenty of small shops and nice restaurants nearby that you can walk to and just spend an afternoon exploring. Since we stayed in the winter it was nice to have an alternative to the beach. The staff were also very kind and professional. That being said, while it was an okay experience I don't think it is one we would repeat simply because the price didn't match with the quality we were anticipating.

bad bad choice
it was very bad choice with very bad services; never recommended a lot of drilling, some maintenance in the roof that made me jump from bed, uncomfortable mattress, a lot of noise all over the place, small bath room, good house keeping but very bad room service nd food was not served with plates!! can you imagine that the rate is 140 $!! it's very higher price compared to neighboring hotels. I planned to stay 5 days; I barely endured staying the first night when I left in the morning they asked for covering the 5 nights!!! and later, they accepted to deduct only three nights.... I hope to remove it from your hotel suggestions

Lovely stay. Very relaxing.
We loved the pool. It was beautiful weather and spending the day by the pool in the sun was great! Really good location, close to everything but as with everything in Lebanon, you need a car to get anywhere. The room was spacious and clean. The staff was very respectful and they all spoke English with my husband which he appreciated. The only negative I can think of is the noise all throughout the night with the music blaring. If you go to bed late and don't mind it then it is fine. But if you want an early night in, it will be rare in the summer as they often have one or two events in the evening.

3 nights in Senses
The stay started a bit on the bad side. The hotel forgot to send a taxi to pick us up from the airport, they night front desk could speak no other language but Arabic (tried French and English) and gave us the wrong room. Next day everything was sorted out and the people were exceptionally polite and made sure that the remaining of our stay was great. Maybe these mishaps were because it is the beginning of the season and things are not very well organized yet.

Tina at the front desk and the house keeping staff were kind/helpful. The rest of the staff was average at best. Bed was comfortable but the room was filled with ants and mosquitoes. One of the noisiest hotels I've ever stayed in.

Dear Mr.Gary, We apologize for any inconvenience you experience during your stay at our property. We are a beach resort as you have noticed, so during the off season the resort looks empty, and we take this time to do all the renovation needed before we open the summer season. That's why we offer the breakfast at 8am during this time of year, unless asked one day before from the client. We apologize if the front desk staff didn't ask you the time you would like to have your breakfast. we assure you that you will be very well served during your next stay at the hotel, and for doing that we offer you a night for free at our resort.

Amazing Service and Attention, 6 Stars not 5!
I stayed towards the end of October at Senses on my trip to Lebanon. Where do I begin? The service was the most fantastic service I have ever received, the grounds were kept to perfection. You need anything from anyone at the hotel they are there quickly and with so much professionalism you can not believe it. If you stay with a seaview room, you have a beautiful view, beautiful patio area and you will not want to leave the hotel. Do you need anything? They will bring it to you, I will be staying again for sure! I want to thank the whole staff there for being so amazing and being such great people. I will recommend to each and everyone of my friends who go to Lebanon for vacation. Looking forward to seeing you next time.
