Tensing Pen

Where to start? Begin with your arrival and the front desk crew. Then check in to your accommodation, ours was Pine Pillar; climbing up the stairs and into a treetop suite with windows all around; loved everything about it especially sitting on the porch watching the fishermen; walk down the stairs to the outdoor shower. You can sit by the pool, jump off the cliffs (shout out to Paul the amazing life guard (also Rasine) who got my husband out of a sticky situation!) The restaurant was excellent! Sit at the bar and talk to Razor the bartender or sit at a table with amazing service by Calene and all the staff! Oh and one more thing - the dogs who are the stars of the show!! We loved it all - it's our second visit and we'll be back Love, Respect, Every Time!!

Fantastic property with beautiful sunset views, excellent service, delicious food and comfortable accommodation. Abundant great restaurants and fun spots nearby. Bartenders particularly Razor a blast. Very gracious owners on site. Love the dogs!

I am at Tensing for a 3 day solo trip and let me tell you, this was the best decision I have ever made. From the moment I checked in, things were heaven. The front desk is super kind & helpful. The drinks I had from Razor were incredible!!! The 90 minute deep tissue massage I had with Natasha was one of the most relaxing experiences in my entire life. I will be leaving a brand new woman. Thank you Tensing!

Came here for cocktails and breakfast on a few occasions from our hotel just along the way. Very warm welcome by Tensing himself…a huge Rhodesian Ridgeback, followed by his “puppies” Obi & Zuri. Extremely friendly doggies & very much part of the furniture. We had amazing cocktails at sunset, view amazing. We came back for an evening which was delicious. Totally recommend this place & would consider staying on our next visit

We love Tensing Pen! The property, the staff, the views and of course the dogs is what keeps us coming back time and time again. This year we opted to try one of their garden rooms and it did not disappointment. We loved our little patio and how close it was to sun loungers away from where everyone seemed to hang out around the water. It’s always fun to cross the bridge and we definitely did alot of that instead of walking the path. We ate at the restaurant most meals and we were pleased with everything we had. Lunch was probably my favourite meal. I love all the hand helds they have. Breakfast has some tasty options as well if you want something more than the continental breakfast. Unfortunately my toast kept getting served cold so it just wasn’t enjoyable. The only other negative thing I have to say is the reoccurring cockroaches we’ve had in the rooms. Out of the four times we’ve stayed here we have had them appear 3 times, all in different cottages. I don’t buy that because we are in a tropical climate, this should be expected. I’ve stayed in more jungle like places than Tensing Pen and I’ve never experienced this. It was very unsettling the first few nights and caused restless nights. We finally had to complain and ask something to be done. The staff did address it but every time I went into the bathroom I was on guard. It is now in the back of my mind every time I think about rebooking. It’s just not a good feeling turning on lights watching things scurrying.
