Six Senses Hotels, Resorts & Spas will debut its first resort in the Seychelles. Scheduled to open in 2015, Six Senses Zil Pasyon will open on the private island of Félicité.


Measuring 652 acres, the resort will offer a sanctuary within the natural environment on the north side of the island and will occupy less than one third of the total land. Six Senses Zil Pasyon will house 28 one-bedroom villas, two two-bedroom villas, and 17 private residences-all with private pools.
Richard Hywel Evans of London-based Studio RHE will lead the architecture design, while Six Senses will oversee the interior design. The resort will include two restaurants, a bar, retail outlets, a recreation center, and Six Senses Spa.
“The island of Félicité is absolutely gorgeous,” says Bernhard Bohnenberger, president of Six Senses Hotels, Resorts & Spas, “and we look forward to creating a rich Six Senses experience for our guests on this pristine private island.”
