  Laid-back luxury amidst an impressive scenery

  05 Apr 2026

  We just spent three wonderful days at this exceptional place. The location is simply outstanding – Félicité is surrounded by some of the most famous granite islands of the Seychelles: La Digue, Ile Cocos, Grande Soeur & Praslin. There are stunning views from every point of the island, and of course from each and every villa! We stayed in Oceanfront Pool Villa # 3 directly opposite dreamy Ile Cocos, simply wow. The layout of the villa is well thought-out with floor-to-ceiling windows and direct access to the pool deck from both bed- and bathroom. Bath amenities are top notch and mainly from The Organic Pharmacy. I often stumble with the handling of the shower, here it was easily to use, a big bonus ;-). The villa also features an outdoor shower in the garden area. On the pool deck, hidden in the cupboard, you can find an ice-cube machine, not a bad idea. All 30 villas provide highest level of privacy and a private butler, called GEM. Our GEM Letitia was a lovely person, very attentive and dedicated. Due to the hilly landscape, a buggy if often needed (with minimum waiting times, btw). We tried to walk as much as possible, but all depends of course on the specific location you are heading to/from. Félicité is easily reachable from either Praslin or La Digue, approximately 20 minutes by boat. We stayed prior on Praslin, thus arrived that way and departed via the most coolest option - by helicopter on a scenic 20 minutes flight back to Mahé. You can either combine Félicité with neighbour islands or use as sole position for excursions to the others. 3 beaches are located within the resort section, more are scattered over the rest of the island. Due to prevailing waves/rocks, swimming can be a tad tricky from time to time. Anse Peniche is the one which is best accessible all year round. There is a smaller stretch of sand at the end of Anse la Cour, it seemed there are as well bathing options depending on the tide, yet we did not try. We do love Grande Anse Beach which is a bit remote and truly a picture-perfect beach, fringed by palm trees and those iconic granite boulders. A few cabanas are placed under the trees, fresh water and towels are provided for self-service at the close-by beach hut. Grande Anse is also a perfect spot for a romantic picnic or breakfast.Only one third of the island is occupied by Six Senses, the rest remains pure tropical nature. It's definitely a paradise for hikers with many trails to explore. There is a large bunch of experiences on offer, we tried the following activities: Sunrise Yoga on the spa pavilion perched above the boulders surrounded by the sound of the waves, truly a wow-location! I would say that is one of the most spectacular Spas in the Indian Ocean. The spa pool amidst the rocks is another stunning place. We also tried a sound healing session on the pavilion which was an interesting and relaxing experience. At Alchemy Bar we crafted our own body scrub with all organic ingredients like salt, coffee, coconut oil, and freshly cut flowers. That’s always a nice experience and you can re-produce same at home. Beach fitness in the morning at Anse Perniche was a bit laborious, especially for me as I am not so trained 😉. Anyway, not the worst way to start the day! Sunset hilltop experience along with bubbles and small bites is an absolute highlight and a truly impressive and a lasting memory. Your GEM drives you up to the hill where you walk over the rocks to a romantic lounger with fascinating view over the islands around you. Along with the resident marine biologist we also went on a snorkel trip directly in front of the island and were totally surprised. Apart from a large area with fantastic coral garden we encountered a shark, rays and a turtle all on one single round, really a lovely tour. Usually, we are not so into snorkelling in the Seychelles as we are a bit spoiled from the Maldives, this was a real exemption compared to the other times. At the Marine Lab you can dive deeper into marine life and environmental things. Also, renowned Olive Ridley Project is based on the island. The other day we did an interesting nest monitoring tour with one of the ladies along Grande Anse Beach. There are lots of hawksbill and green turtle nests on the island, so fingers crossed that at least of few of the hatchlings will survive! On departure day, we enjoyed a floating breakfast in our villa along with some champagne. That was truly breakfast with a view!There are two main outlets, Island Café (all-day-dining) and KRI (dinner only), the latter a Japanese restaurant located on the upper floor. At Island Café, I would recommend to try the Ceviche as starter, very nicely prepared. In the evenings, the large Badamier Tree is illuminated, creating a romantic scenery in front of both venues. Of course different options like private cooking class/chef’s kitchen, wine vault dinner, some special events at Ocean Lounge and destination dining are available. Island Water is served on a complimentary base. The selection of wine by the glass I found very limited: 2 white and 2 rosé from Italy were only on offer (red ones I did not check, but most probably also 2), and as well pretty expensive, 400 SCR per glass. The selection of wines by the bottle is of course more comprehensive and also more reasonably priced. This is definitely a point to look into further. Breakfast comes with a nice choice of smoothies, juices and shots. In addition to the à-la-carte menu there is also a buffet option. Many of the vegetables, fruit and herbs are grown in the own organic garden. A vital part at every Six Senses resort is of course the strong focus on sustainability and social responsibility. The team members have been very amiable and cordial, and the allover vibe is familiar and pleasant. Félicité is truly a special island and the perfect place to combine ultimate relaxation with exciting experiences amidst a spectacular landscape. This was surely not our last time 😊.

  Your private paradise in the Seychelles

  16 Feb 2026

  My wife and I spent a week on Felicite Island and could not have picked a better place in the Seychelles. This was our second trip to the Seychelles and the first time at the Six Senses resort. We had a fantastic time. The communication with the resort‘s booking team ahead of our trip was easy and fast.Upon arrival we were immediately greeted by smiling faces and wonderful people.The guest either enjoy their exquisit villas or make use of the different beaches or activities on and around the island. So the island feels like your private Seychelles paradise. The food is fantastic. The gym is well equipped and overlooks the neighboring islands and the sea. We never checked out the Spa, but I am sure it is great too.You can watch baby sharks, turtles, and hundreds of colorful fish while snorkeling just outside the beach. So it is truly paradise.But all of this is topped by the wonderful people (shout out to Fatira - we miss you!), who will do whatever is necessary and more to make sure you have the best time ever.We will be back.
