5 Bedroom Villa in Six Senses, Felicite Island

Some places truly change what you think a home can be. This five bedroom villa at Zil Pasyon Residences on Felicite Island, part of the Six Senses Resort in Seychelles, honestly gave me that feeling. You walk in and before you know it your shoulders drop and you are just breathing in that fresh island air coming right off the Indian Ocean. Seriously, I had to pause by the glass and just watch the sea for a while. It almost does not feel real when you see the sun shimmering on the waves and hear those soft coastal breezes moving all through the space.

Now, I have walked through plenty of beautiful homes but this one just gets it right. Richard Hywel Evans designed it to blend straight into the granite and jungle, and you really feel that. The villa looks like it belongs here, with its dark grey basalt at the entrance, and when you stand outside, everything around just pours into your view. Then you step inside, and the glass walls wrap you in the outdoors. Floor to ceiling, every window lets you look out either toward green trees or straight across that endless blue ocean. The sun changes the whole mood through the day. Sometimes you find yourself following the light just to see how the villa feels different in the late afternoon or early morning. I actually spent a while at one of the bigger windows, just trying to remember when I last felt so calm indoors.

It is set out over two big, open floors that do not feel fussy or staged. Oak flooring runs all through the villa so each step just feels solid and a bit warm underfoot, and you can tell the care that went into these choices. The bamboo for the stairs is a clever touch too. Nothing shows off, it just fits perfectly. The main living space has a relaxed sort of flow, making it easy to imagine big family gatherings or lazy weekends that never feel cramped. Even if you have lots of friends over, there is plenty of space for everyone to just sprawl out and enjoy the view or start up a conversation without bumping elbows.

If you come up to the first floor, there is something special—a pool deck with a glass bottom. You can actually stand there and watch sunlight patterning down over the living room. The infinity pool on the lower terrace drew me in right away. It is just that kind of place where you might end up swimming before you unpack. And this view, honestly, it is hard to look away. Boats drift past sometimes, and in the evenings, the sky and sea seem to melt together as the sun sets. If you are someone who likes privacy, this spot has it. The plot is so big you hardly notice your neighbours, and most of the time it just feels like your own piece of a secret island.

The bedrooms are true full size with doors that open out wide for the breeze. There is a natural feeling in all the bathrooms, nothing too bold, just easy and elegant. The kitchen makes you want to cook from scratch—imagine grilling fresh fish with family or just wandering in for a late breakfast while you watch the ocean. Maintenance is really simple here too. There is a laid back, low stress vibe.

And living at Zil Pasyon Residences means you are part of the Six Senses experience. You get everything you might want from a world class resort—big saltwater pool, a gym where you can actually watch the scenery while you work out, a spa for proper downtime. Walk the trails and you might see neighbours heading off for a morning swim or a picnic. Food is always close, with resort restaurants nearby, and sometimes a chef just shows up to cook for you in your own kitchen. Plus, with butler service and real security, you never have to stress. Getting here or heading out is easy with boat and helicopter transfers.

Felicite Island itself has this gentle pace. You hear the waves and birds more than traffic. Sometimes kids are out on bikes or someone is carrying a basket of fruit back from the gardens. Evenings on the beach as the sun sinks down are something you do not forget.
