The island of Félicité is an ecological marvel, so at Six Senses Zil Payson they do everything they can to sustain its integrity. Their social and environmental projects are not obligations, they are motivations and are the reason for why they bounce out of bed every day. For Six Senses Zil Payson, sustainability starts with growing their own food. In 2019, they produced nearly 39,000 kilos of organic herbs, fruits and veggies to feed their guests and hosts. A new area has been developed next to the garden where guests can learn more about their approach to permaculture and compost and much more.

Six Senses Zil Payson grow herbs and vegetables in their organic garden and herb nursery. The different herb and salad varieties that they produce make their way to the chefs and get served up for a fresh, island evening meal. Other achievements that Six Senses Zil Payson have carried out regarding sustainable practice and environmental protection include youth engagements and forest and marine restoration.

• 1,800 coral fragments harvested and grown in our nursery, with 600 fragments transplanted so far
• 1,300 people reached through our 2019 educational activities
• 7,000 indigenous species planted to date as part of our island restoration project

Six Senses Zil Pasyon have a reverse osmosis plant and crystal water refinery, which produces mineralised water without any carbon footprint. Which always wins over bottled water in the taste test too. Still or sparkling, at Six Senses Zil Payson, they do it right.
