In an industry first, United Kingdom holiday company, Thomson, became the first to create a stunning water projection on the sea at Sensatori Resort in Negril on Monday night, April 28.

Unveiling not only a stunning First-World, first-class all-inclusive resort, Thomson culminated a night of great food and sweet vibes with a 3D projection of model Nadja Giramata enjoying the Sensatori Resort experience, broadcast on to the Caribbean Sea.

The water projection showcased the spectacular hotel, which is set on the stunning seven-mile beach, with contemporary rooms and a relaxed Jamaica vibe.

This is Thomson's sixth Sensatori, and its second hotel owned and operated under the Karisma Hotels and Resorts brand. "The hotel provides a luxurious holiday experience. Customers will also be pleased to know that we are offering Karisma's renowned gourmet inclusive dining experience across four restaurants for guests to enjoy," explains Mandy Chomat, vice-president of sales and marketing of Karisma Hotels.

As an
addition to the celebrations marking the opening of the resort, Thomson
teamed up with renowned British fashion designer, Jonathan Saunders, to
create a range of limited-edition beachwear for men and women. In an
interior design first for Saunders, he designed, accessorised and named
the Amber pool and beach
area.
