The greenery and layout of this space is curated expertly - there are millions of dollars worth of art dotted around the space creating visual excitement everywhere you look. If curated art isn't your thing, the plant life alone (trees that look like they're out of Jurassic park, flowers in bloom everywhere giving off the most gorgeous scent) is worth the trip.The rooms are spacious (we had a gorgeous ground floor room with a large seating area, amazing bed) and light, airy and clean. The only complaint is that there was not a turndown service unless it was specifically requested even though someone always came into our rooms to drop off our next day's itinerary. Also, the weather on site can be rainy/overcast and our tv did not work at all during our entire stay (thankfully, we had lots of books and there is a decently appointed library guests can use). The TV never working was disappointing especially if we just wanted to watch some news in bed at night (and I guess when you're paying what we paid, we expect perfection). There is one main pool with amazing water features - plenty of shaded areas and attentive pool staff. They also have great sunscreen available and fluffy towels.The grounds also have onsen thermal pools - these are stunning and secluded. My one wish for these is that they had differing temperatures. They are all kept very hot and having lower temp options would be wonderful.There are 10 hale spas on site - these are where spa services are hosted - each is slightly different but all have huge Japanese style tubs, infrared saunas, steam showers, outdoor Onsen and a huge outdoor rain shower. The massage services staff are all very knowledgeable and I had two of the best massages of my life on site.Days can be as busy or as relaxed as guests like - the staff who teach the training and yoga classes are top tier. Eduardo and Christine are two of the best humans I've ever encountered and their classes were amazing.My husband and I did the 5 day sensei package that included a lot of 1-1 specialized sessions and a lot of daily sessions (yoga, stretching, etc)- the primary focus was on movement, rest and nourishment. I'd say movement and rest were very thoroughly considered - the nourish aspect lacked significantly but this was NOT due to the nutritionist they have on staff. Danielle the nutritionist was again, incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. The 5 day experience came with some pre-arrival set up (including wearing a whoop fitness tracker and a few phone calls). We were disappointed by the pre-arrival support (I suppose we didn't really understand what was happening so unfortunately we ended up with schedules that were not aligned and spent quite a few days hardly seeing each other - we were able to make changes so we had more activities together but it'd be nice to have the staff let couples traveling together to be mindful of scheduling if they actually like hanging out together while on vacation). My biggest complaint about the trip was the lack of food option(s) onsite. They truly only have one restaurant one site (sensei by nobu) and the menu is incredibly limited. The chef is accommodating but when you're staying for 5 days it's just not a great experience to only have one restaurant or room service/bar as your only options. And the prices are absurd but in line with other 4 season resorts.We did a sunset boat cruise and that was excellent - would 100% recommend - the water is much rougher than most boat cruises but that's the Pacific Ocean for you. The cruise staff was amazing and for $170/pp you get a great meal and drinks all included. The hotel does provide shuttle between the sensei site and their beach site - the overall vibe is MUCH better at sensei (no kids, pool always has seating) but the food options at the other site is more expansive (but again ridiculously expensive). Arrival and departure to and from the island was top notch through lanai air! My husband was disappointed though that the website claimed the use of teslas would be used and at least during our time we only saw the teslas we never got transported anywhere around in them. You can definitely walk into Lanai City from sensei (it's about 2 miles each way). There is a small market there where you can get great and reasonably priced poke and with a fridge in your room you could get some other small items if you don't want to pay $100 for eggs/coffee everyday (this was the average price for coffee and two breakfasts). Overall it is a magical location - the 5 day experience was great but the nourish aspect needs a lot of tweaking to make it in line with places like miraval. The fitness professionals and spa professionals are world class. Hopefully, they expand their eating options and tweak the 5 day experience (the food aspect) to be more in line with miraval.
