Insider Tip

Book the Top Hill sundowner early — it fills up and is genuinely one of the best sunset spots in the Seychelles

Why It Matters

The only resort on a private island, accessible only by helicopter or speedboat. Félicité is one of the few places where hawksbill turtles nest in daylight. The spa is literally built into granite boulders above the ocean. Three private four-bedroom residences each come with a dedicated chef, service host, and housekeeper.

Six Senses Zil Pasyon occupies one third of Félicité, a one-square-mile private island in the Seychelles' Inner Islands. It's the only resort on the island. Coral-fringed beaches, massive granite boulders, and dense jungle form the backdrop — structures are designed in a 'stealth architecture' style, built around the natural landscape rather than imposing on it. Every villa has a private infinity pool and either sunrise or sunset ocean views.
