Félicité is a 268 hectare island of granitic boulders strewn over pristine vegetation, with picturesque views at every turn. Microcosmic of what makes Seychelles truly unique, Félicité has been a best kept secret until now. Home only to Six Senses Zil Pasyon and Six Senses Residences Zil Pasyon. Félicité truly embodies its French name - bliss.

The island of Félicité nurtures and protects its delicate ecology to maintain balance and harmony. Over many years, specialists have deliberately eradicated invasive plants to allow the island to continue to flourish as nature intended it to be. The island is home to indigenous and endemic flora and fauna and the newly introduced Coco de Mer is now flourishing here. With this, it is blossoming into a haven for future introductions, including rare Seychelles bird species and the gentle giant tortoises.

Zil Pasyon villas perfectly embodies the ethos of 'stealth architecture', blending striking design with the raw beauty of the surrounding environment. Zil Pasyon is constructed from indigenous materials, including dark-coloured, fine grained basalt that echo the rugged beauty of Félicité. Using the natural landscape as inspiration and foundation, each villa harmonizes organically with the natural granitic contours so that over time the structure and its surrounds seem to merge. Around each property, rich textures and lush surfaces are found in brushed concrete, limestone flooring, polished granite and glass.

Flying via helicopter is the ideal way to see the untouched mountains and plains of Northern Kenya. On this 3 day, 2 night trip you fly to remote place and see landscapes that few people have seen. You have one night on the beach at Lobolo and one night under the stars at a fly camp.

You are picked up by your helicopter pilot at Saruni and stop for breakfast at on the rim of Silale Crater - a vast caldera carpeted with green shrubs and open grasslands. Continuing on through the wild and spectacular changing landscapes of the Suguta – the ‘painted’ and Hoodoe valleys by late morning you arrive at the private retreat of Lobolo on Lake Turkana.

Flying south into the remote heart of Samburu country and land by the ‘Singing Wells’ where Samburu herdsmen draw water for their livestock. Next you fly to the forested summit of the Mathews - amazing islands of forest in a sea of desert, where giant and ancient cycads grow in abundance. Finally you make it to Kipsing Valley for a stay under the starts at a private mobile fly camp. Here you enjoy lunch in the nearby Mukogodo Forest, at a hidden rock pool, and will spend the afternoon exploring the sandy luggas and wilderness by quad bikes and buggies.
