Not worth the money, opt for better options
Pros:

The pics do not match with the actual rooms. They were not flexible to provide a room for early check with nominal price but were demanding 3k for couple of hours till we got our room.
Complimentary breakfast is not buffet and not flexible in providing additional curry or sambar
The swimming pool is 2x2 water tube
Not worth the money, worst front desk reception

Good stay, courteous staff
Pros:

The hotel is nice. The beach is 15 min walk from the hotel. The room had a small window , so it was lacking in light and looked smaller. The room service and reception staff were helpful. The restaurant breakfast was also good ,but a bit expensive if you don't opt for complimentary. The swimming pool is just a small water tank.

Good Location, ok service
Pros:

Zense Resort is located in a good location in Candolim and you will get good hotels to have your lunch, dinner etc. near by. Also, the beeches are not that far away.

But the hotel rooms are very different from what you see in pics. They were not even 50% of what you see in pics so please select this hotel is you want to save some money on hotel expenses.

They will charge you for dental kits, rooms don't have proper lights, there were few spider webs which they forgot to clean. We stayed for 2 nights.

Overall, it was ok but I won't go to this hotel again.

Worst, don’t book at all.
Pros:

We booked this hotel by seeing the photos and rating as 4 star hotel which is totally opposite. It’s not even 2 star, pool is for kids and not maintained at all. Lift can hardly accommodate 3 person. Once you book it will be a nightmare to cancel the hotel. Do not book by seeing the good reviews and photos. Not worth it, totally waste of money.
