Which slice of Six Senses paradise would you pick?

Six Senses Hotels, Resorts & Spas truly live up to their name when it comes to understanding what people really want from a holiday and The Turquoise Holiday team are their number one fans. Here's why…

SIX SENSES, LAAMU

With uninterrupted ocean views, vast land and overwater villas, and days spent lounging on talcum-white sands, paddle-boarding in crystal-clear waters, or floating over kaleidoscopic coral gardens and a multitude of fish, Six Senses Laamu offers escapism in a seashell. Tucked away in the Laamu Atoll, it is also the only hotel in the world to make the 2017 Ocean Awards shortlist, thanks to its work on coral reefs, turtle- and dolphin-monitoring and with the Manta Trust. Which means that even as guests bask in paradise, they help to protect it.

Seven nights at Six Senses Laamu from £2,365 per person half board, including international flights and transfers

SIX SENSES ZIL PASYON, SEYCHELLES

From the moment you helicopter in over an expanse of aquamarine Seychellois sea and land on this private island, Six Senses' newest member takes the feel-good factor to positively fabulous levels. Think - this construction is never used on Traveller. Suggest rewording as follows. There are uber-modern pool villas with panoramic views, three private beaches, elevated dining experiences (both literally and metaphorically) and a new spa. Here the views of dreamy amazing beaches, dramatic granite boulders, turquoise seas and swaying palms are enough to play heaven with your senses - and that's before you succumb to its incredible holistic wellness therapies.

SIX SENSES NINH VAN BAY, VIETNAM

Nature and nurture merge seamlessly at Six Senses Ninh Van Bay. Nestled among distinctive rock formations are beachfront villas, overwater pool villas and villas with dipping pools carved out among the boulders. This is a place to kick back and relax, with its unique 'Sweet 16' experiences, including everything from Vietnamese cooking classes to shoulder and back massages; guided meditation to guided adventure hikes; beach picnics to breakfast in bed; and dreamy 'Drinks Adrift' experience. Stay for five consecutive nights before 31 October 2017 and you'll receive one complimentary 'Sweet 16' experience for every night booked.

SIX SENSES CON DAO, VIETNAM

Remote natural beauty and blissful havens combine at Six Senses Con Dao, Vietnam, the first five-star resort in its archipelago. Edging the obligatory dreamy beautiful stretch of sand, contemporary wooden suites emulate a traditional fishing village, with huge two-, three- and even four-bedroom villas in which to enjoy the surroundings with family and friends. And enjoy them you will, whether snorkeling in the pristine marine park on your doorstep, hiking through tropical rainforest, watching female turtles nesting, exploring the island's colonial history or joining bustling morning markets. Indeed, to truly embrace the local culture you could even try your hand at squid fishing.

Seven nights at Six Senses Con Dao from £1,995 per person half board, including international flights and transfers

SIX SENSES YAO NOI, THAILAND

Location takes centre stage at Six Senses Yao Noi, Thailand - whether you are relaxing by the infinity pool overlooking Phang Nga Bay, finding your zen in the jungle yoga pavilion or enjoying extraordinary dining experiences, from sunrise breakfast to dinner with a stream trickling under the glass floor beneath you. Days here are spent exploring the bay by kayak, visit the legendary Hong Island on a traditional long-tail boat, or motoring around the island on a Vespa. Come evening, you can watch as night descends over the bay, turning its iconic distinctive rock stacks into shadowy sentries scattered across the dusky water.

Seven nights at Six Senses Yao Noi from £1,795 per person on a bed-and-breakfast basis, including international flights and transfers

SIX SENSES SAMUI, THAILAND

Anyone for kick-boxing? Or perhaps kayaking at sunrise along the Samui coast? At Six Senses Koh Samui, there is no doubting the Thai appeal. It's evident in the elegant villas, many with a private pool; in the infinity pool, with its glorious Gulf of Thailand vistas; in the spa's menu of traditional treatments; in the activities that take in the island's natural beauty - and at Dining on the Rocks, where the cliff-face architecture is a triumph of 10 terraced decks and the unique menu encompasses organic eggs, goat's milk and fresh vegetables from the resort's own Farm on the Hill.

Seven nights at Six Senses Samui from £1,930 per person on a bed-and-breakfast basis, including international flights and transfers

SIX SENSES ZIGHY BAY, OMAN

Having guests paraglide in is one way to get their attention. And Six Senses Zighy Bay does that at every turn. Set among the rugged beauty of Oman's coast, rooms are oases of natural stone, wood and tranquil pools. Delicious local dining peaks, literally, at the mountaintop Sense on the Edge, with spectacular Gulf of Oman views. Activities include intrepid hikes, canyoning, archery and endless water-based adventures in the beautiful surroundings - perhaps even taking a traditional dhow charter, complete with personal chef. And at the end of fun-packed days, what's better than to curl up and watch a film, with five flavours of popcorn and 40 of ice creams to choose from, at Cinema Paradiso on the beach.
