Thirty pool villas on a private granite island, with two thirds of Félicité deliberately left untouched.
01 / 06
Overview
A Private Island, Mostly Unbuilt
The fifth largest island in the Seychelles, and the resort occupies only a third of it.
Six Senses Zil Pasyon sits on Félicité, a private granitic island among the Seychelles inner islands. Two thirds of the island are wild and untouched, rich in flora and fauna, and only the remaining third is built on — which is the single decision that defines a stay here. Thirty one- and two-bedroom pool villas, plus a handful of larger residences, are set among the granite boulders with sundecks, outdoor dining and personal wine cellars. The island is reached only by helicopter or speedboat.
The spa is built into the rocks. Five double treatment villas — Rock, Cave, Ocean, Nature and Floating — are set between the boulders, on top of them, and in one case suspended above the water itself.
