In tune with the ancient alchemy and ethereal energy of their location, each residence features agile amenities and playful touches throughout, all with the intention of reconnecting guests with themselves, others, and the world around them.
The Suite Sounds of Six Senses Ibiza a professional recording studio with an oversized bed
In the spiritual home of dance music, behind a hidden door within The Cave Royale Suite at Six Senses Ibiza lies a professional recording studio. Calling out to artists, dreamers, and those looking to connect with the island’s creative spirit to lay down a track, this state-of-the art studio is designed for world-class production with a piano, studio manager, and mixing editor on hand. A line-up of local artists, international stars, and celebrated singer-songwriters are amongst its former guests.
In keeping with its cliffside setting, the adjoining 300 square meter Cave Royale Suite blends raw, natural textures with rich, bohemian interiors. Standout features include an oversized bed, full bar, freestanding bathtub, and high-fidelity audio system, as well as an expansive wrap around terrace, outdoor bathtub and dining area overlooking the Cala Xarraca Bay.
Stealth architecture in the Seychelles at Six Senses Zil Payson the ultimate party pad with swimming pool ceiling, straight from the pages of a spy novel
Disguised within the granite rockface of Félicité Island and virtually unseen from the sea, this three-bedroom Seascape Residence at Six Senses Zil Payson is the ultimate playground. Its 733 square meter design demonstrates ‘stealth architecture’ in a fitting tribute to famed author Ian Fleming, who, in Spring 1958, fled London for the shores of the Seychelles in search of inspiration.
The master bedroom on the upper level features its own plunge pool with a transparent base, through which natural light filters playfully to the living area below. Double-height, floor-to-ceiling windows look out across the island’s landscape of palms, Takamaka trees, and granite boulders, reminiscent of Jurassic Park. Beyond lies the dreamy vistas of Praslin, La Digue, and Coco islands.
