Even among luxury resorts, Sensei Lanai is not your typical property. The Four Seasons-affiliated getaway is located on the private Hawaiian island of Lanai and is the brainchild of Oracle founder and billionaire jet-setter Larry Ellison. Sensei specializes in “optimal wellbeing programs,” or curated stays with experiences based on growth, mindfulness and improving guests holistically. “We’re in the center of the middle of the ocean, and it’s really private. It’s quiet,” says Kelly Georgiou, manager of program development. “There’s many off-site excursions for the guests to take part in. There’s a ton of wellness programming… whether someone’s coming to meditate and reset, or if they’re coming to improve their golf game or tennis game.” To wit: new programs tailored for golf and tennis. “We’ve had a few beta testers, and their responses and reactions have been really great. Guests went home and… their friends and family were in awe of how much their golf game or tennis game improved.” Sensei Lanai’s regular optimal wellbeing program begins at $1,355 a night, while the golf and tennis programs begin at $1,700 and $1,615, respectively. sensei.com
