Sense Spa at Rosewood Sand Hill, Menlo Park CA

Love! Relaxing atmosphere and great spaces to enjoy before or after your treatment. There's a great coed lounge as well with indoor and outdoor seating. No spa cafe inside, contrary to what is listed on some websites, but there are a few beverage options and light snacks offered. For parking, drive past the Rosewood lobby parking area, past the corporate offices, and keep going until you see the spa on your left.

My swedish massage at sense spa was still relaxing. My friends and I took full advantage of the amenities. We had breakfast before our services and a late lunch afterwards. It was the perfect day.

Always have exceptional massages but expect to pay the highest prices in the South Bay.

It’s an indulgence that I justify about once a year. Does seem pricey particularly since there are not his/her hot tubs. Compared to many resorts the amenities are underwhelming.

The Spa is in in a very beautiful location and is well equipped. There are convenient places for rest and relaxation, swimming pool sauna, everything you need for a comfortable stay. I would especially like to note the high professionalism of Vinsent's masseur-after his massage l became 30 years younger)

Sense is an ultra-luxurious, peaceful, and gorgeous spa located in the Rosewood Sand resort. Surrounded by picturesque mountain views, this spa is the perfect location to spend a day pampering yourself or celebrating a special occasion.

Most recently, I enjoyed a spa day, a birthday gift from my husband. For a Monday, it was an incredibly relaxing and peaceful experience. I enjoyed a 90-minute Swedish massage, although the pressure was slightly more firm than I had hoped. Additionally, I loved relaxing in the cozy relaxation area and private outdoor courtyard and using the amenities, such as the sauna and steam room. Complimentary champagne, tea, and light snacks are also provided for you.

My only comment about Sense is that they should offer more of an extensive menu for food besides the complementary light snacks available. Besides that, I've always had a lovely experience at Sense, and I highly recommend it.

I’ve had several massages here and like all the therapists. However, the 5% surcharge for enhanced cleaning measures is irritating. Given that I didn’t book a roadside massage at a strip mall, I would have already assumed stringent cleaning measures were in place. So, if you’re charging a 5% surcharge on top of the several hundred for the actual massage, I would expect the facilities to be immaculate. Today, in the waiting area, the lounge chairs were greasy, the towels were crumpled and lying on the floor, and nobody seemed to notice the chewed up, browned discarded apple core. This made the extra cleaning fee all the more irritating.

My wife and I booked a couples massage after a previous appointment - in person at their front desk at check out. A week later on arrival for the scheduled treatment, they couldn't locate the appointment and told us there was nothing they could do and they were busy. Offering they could see us in the evening and "we are welcome to hang out" - yeah sure we have time to stick around for 4-5h until you make time for us after to messed up. Thanks for valuing our time. Will bring our business elsewhere in the future.

Service as expected, all the staff highly professional and experienced. Had a lovely couples message service for our anniversary.

Such a treat to know all amenities were available and open, post pandemic. Not crowded at all. Had my massage with Aldo who was great. Can't wait to come back!

Wonderful massage, good ambiance, clean steam, sauna, changing rooms and whirlpool. Highly recommend it.

While the spa and amenities were lovely, everything was clean and they took Covid precautions, my massage was not great.first there seemed to be a booking miscommunication. I was told there was no female masseuse available (fine) but I got to my appointment and he said “ deep tissue” instead of Swedish. I had to correct him, but luckily he was able to do both.

I explained I needed focus on my neck and shoulders, specifically areas of tension due to breastfeeding, which was the whole reason for me getting a massage. I had a 90 minute massage
and honestly it seemed like he avoided the area I needed work on. I left disappointed and now I’m awake at 4am and upset because my neck and shoulders are still tight, and I spent a fair amount of money. How do you say “ you missed a spot” at the end of a massage? ! I’ll need to book another appointment with another spa just to get the work done properly.

As a business traveler I get to experience spas all over the country. At Sense I felt welcomed and taken care of throughout my visit. They offer exceptional customer service, superb spa experience and lovely ambiance. I left rejuvenated and ready for my busy work schedule. Truly hope I get to return to Menlo Park and this lovely spa soon. Thank you to my massage therapist and the entire team. I felt pampered and appreciated.

Wonderful day spa at the Rosewood. Went on a Thursday to recharge and had a wonderful facial and mani/ pedi. Facilities are nice (sauna, steam room, relaxation spaces).
My only negative was being rushed through the end of my manicure because of a scheduling issue on their side. The nail technician was extremely apologetic, but manager and other guest were a tad rude.
Would definitely go back regardless - go here if you need some respite from the city.

Very nice amenities for before and after spa treatments. Only thing noteworthy (that’s not worth taking away stars) is the massage room was definitely too bright during my service.

Absolutely best spa in the peninsula. It's gorgeous and lavish. Steam and sauna rooms are divine. I've never had a bad massage here. Vast majority of them have been an A. Definitely go to Ileana for massage. She is very talented and intuitive. I'll continue being a regular at Sense.

I believe they overall spa has some teal work to do. Simple spa amenities are missing as in fresh fruit, water for tea that is hot.

As a lifestyle member I’m enormously hopeful upgrades to the fitness centre to include a power plate, wood way tread trainers, and outdoor classes as we are in sunny California.

I’m also willing to devote time to help the new management with these. The newly appointed spa director has incredible vision. He is the answer we are looking for.
