Aminess Younique Senses Resort

"We booked this holiday last minute on a whim, over a beverage at lunchtime, (it was a great offer) We didn't do any research (which is unusual for us as we usually plan our holidays well in advance) Upon getting home and reading Trip Advisor reviews we were really worried that we'd made a big mistake, the reviews weren't good. The latest one was dated October 2025, so nothing posted recently. We had everything included, flights, transfers, hotel and all inclusive (more on that later) When we arrived, I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised, the reception was clean and bright and we were met by a lovely young lady on reception. We were given room 115 (photos attached) The reviews I had read all mentioned filthy carpets but ours were clean, as were all the corridor carpets. The room was clean and nicely made up with a basket of fresh fruit. It's a shame that were were at the side of the building, we didn't have a clear view of the sea. The hotel was quiet so it would have been easy for them to have put us in one, but when we asked, we were told it would be at an extra cost. The hotel was quiet with not much to do. A movie night or some sort of entertainment one evening would have been nice. On to the 'all inclusive'. It's not all inclusive (you have to dig deep in the paperwork to find this out) It's actually all inclusive 'light' which basically means that you get breakfast, lunch and dinner, all buffet style. Drinks wise, you get house red wine or white wine, a local beer and soft drinks, but only when you're dining. You can then purchase drinks at the bar outside of those hours. The red wine wasn't good. The white was slightly better. The food was good but was rather repetitive (as are most buffet restaurants) The bread was delicious and the salads nice and fresh. The gym was a bonus. The equipment looked new. At the back was a hot tub and sauna room, changing rooms and a relaxation area. I used these facilities most days as it was so quiet. The setting is lovely. Such a gorgeous outlook. A rocky shore and gorgeous blue hues in the water. Unfortunately it was too cold for us to swim in it (others did though) We walked to the nearby town of Vroboska a few times (about 20 minutes at a good pace) It's gorgeous. Jelsa is also worth a visit. I must mention the dining room staff who were so friendly and helpful. They worked such long hours but always had a smile and they took time to chat. A big thank you goes to Jeevan, Texie and Yahia. All in all we were pleasantly surprised that our fears about cleanliness were unfounded. It's definitely not a 4* hotel but it's nice and thankfully, it's clean."

"We stayed at the Aminess Younique for a week from the 7th May. Initially we weren't quite sure about it but I think it was because it was just at the very start of the season so things hadn't quite going and the sun didn't grace us with its presence. However a day or two in and the place got going, the sun was shining and the blue sea twinkling. Things to think about are that to get to the next place to go to the supermarket or go to a bar or restaurant is about a 30 minute walk each way to Vrboska. It is a beautiful walk and once there you can catch the local bus to Sarri Grad, Hvar old town etc. It does require a bit of effort . We had half board and the food was actually good, plentiful and fresh. Wine and beer included - so good value. There is a bar in the hotel reception area, not very big but sells all different types of alcohol, non alcoholic drinks and coffee. The bar is presided over by the wonderful Yahia. Yahia is super helpful and always incredibly welcoming. You can tell he enjoys making people feel at home always greets you a smile. The rooms are clean and bright - I would recommend asking for a room with sea view - the beautiful clear blue sea is a joy to wake up to. There is a variety of things to do at the hotel but you can see that from the details. The pool is a good size and again very clean."

"We stayed at Senses Resort for five days last week and it was one of the most peaceful and relaxing places we have ever visited. The hotel is surrounded by a beautiful pine forest right next to the sea, and the entire atmosphere is incredibly calm and quiet, just the perfect place to truly switch off and rest. It was an amazing base for exploring nearby places by car - Jelsa, Hvar, Stari Grad and other spots around the island - and our favorite part of the day was always coming back there in the evening to enjoy the peace, nature, and silence. The food was also absolutely delicious, everything felt fresh and we genuinely enjoyed every meal. We especially loved visiting during the off-season because there were no crowds, which made the whole experience even more relaxing and special. We would definitely love to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway surrounded by nature and the sea."
