Six Senses Zil Pasyon

About fifty percent of the staff is often unhelpful, forgetful (purposefully?), and obtuse. The food is overpriced beyond measure considering how boring, painfully repetitive, and, with a few exceptions, mediocre it is. It is unclear if the alcohol we requested to have added to our typically non alcoholic drinks ever made it into the actual beverages...when this was questioned we were treated like liars and thieves (and those drinks often arrived just before we were finished with our meals even though they were ordered when we were first seated). We had to BEG for an actual paper map of the island when squinting at the tiny, sad, low resolution version on our phones proved too much to bear. The ceiling fan in our room was non functioning - when this was pointed out we were indeed immediately supplied with floor fans, but the question remains: WHY, for the price (!!), is ANYTHING in the room broken? Could have used an extra "beach bag"...asked for one or two...was promised one or two...never received. There is not much to do on the island, which is fine...but snorkeling was a real highlight. We should have lugged our own gear though, since the often broken, typically "sad" gear we were loaned was a real detriment to our experience. They could supply/sell some inexpensive flip flops or other simple gear that one might have forgotten to bring (the ill fitting, absurdly slippery bedroom sandals are not a good substitute). Overall the food and the holier-than-thou waitstaff and valet made our stay ($$$$$$$) sad. Luckily we had a 14 hour unexpected layover in Dubai on our way there, where, for the price of 180.00, we had an amazing lunch of simple ceviches and the most delicious rice I have ever had...all made with ingredients easily found in the kitchen at Six Senses but never utilized properly. I believe that people do not tell the truth about these places often because it is so sad to have to admit you just got screwed over so badly.

Just back from 4 nights at the amazing Six Senses Zil Pasyon - a beautiful hotel on the island of Félicité with luxurious rooms and super friendly staff who bend over backwards to make your stay easy and enjoyable. Special mention to GEM Vladimir who checked in regularly and made every request possible. Recommend the day trip to island La Digue and spending time discovering the Felicite beaches - even the secret beach to hike to. A lovely stay and hope to return again soon!

Beautiful villa with fantastic views. We were very well looked after by the staff especially Fatira who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The spa was amazing. Lots of activities for families and couples. Very natural with lots of wildlife to see.

We are now on our way back home after spending one week at this beautiful resort. The island is very beautiful, rooms are amaizing and very clean and they freshen up the room every time you go out. Our GEM Fatima was the best ever, she fulfilled all our requests even when they were out of the ordinary. All the staff made sure that we were having the best time. They have the best activities like yoga, snorkel, turtle nest monitoring so you can never get bored there. I have a lot more good things to say, we didnt wanna leave. Definitely will be back soon⭐️

I dont write long reviews but a few notes for this spot. Known for their spa, you need to go at least once it’s epic. If you can, get a room with Western exposure. We were in villa 17 and it’s a 20 minute walk, so you need a buggy everytime, small issue for a near perfect spot. Recommend to definitely rent a boat, try with another couple if possible as its about $1,000 for four hours, but getting to see other islands and snorkeling (good at the hotel) is much better in other spots. Another small issue is there are only certain days that certain activists are given, make sure you spend time on coordinating what you want to do, as we missed a few things and we were there four nights. Food is very good, I would recommend the full board. Breakfast is slightly above average, but lunches and dinners were excellent. Hamburger (of all things) was very good. Make sure you let your waiter know if you want rare or med rare on steaks that they understand, this was a small issue. Caprese salad was ok, soft shelled crab with papaya was excellent. Steak tartare excellent. Fish of the day, excellent. Tiramisu was a bit below average, coconut parfait was the best dessert by far, ice cream sub par. Gym is also very good with a spectacular view, which was cool. Makes sure you have a cocktail at sunset, perfect setting. Two comments for management. If you take a boat ride tip in cash, if you tip on the bill the boat staff does not get the tip, weird. And this was the worse WiFi connection of the 8 properties we stayed at, very frustrating, they need to address this, you cant be the best hotel in the Seychelles and have the worst WiFi, not at the prices you pay.
