Urban Oasis VS Beachfront Bliss: A Tale of Two One&Only African Resorts
One&Only Resorts invites you to unveil Africa's diverse landscapes and embark on a captivating journey to two unparalleled destinations offering distinctly unique experiences.
Will you lose yourself in the metropolitan heartbeat of South Africa at One&Only Cape Town? This urban oasis, nestled in the stylish Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, mesmerizes with tranquil waterways and secluded islands, creating a serene urban retreat. Or will you surrender to the soothing rhythm of the beach at One&Only Le Saint Géran? Poised in the embrace of the Indian Ocean off Africa's southeast coast on the island of Mauritius, this resort is a symphony of tropical luxury. Relish the gentle kiss of the sun on your skin, the whisper of the breeze through palm fronds, and the lulling melody of lapping waves.
Adorned with a Forbes 5 Star Rating, both destinations invite you to choose your adventure. Either path promises a meticulously curated journey of sensory delights.
ONE&ONLY CAPE TOWN
One&Only Cape Town is an oasis of tranquility amidst South Africa's metropolitan heart. Ideally nestled within the chic Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, it is a gateway to the city's fascinating attractions, including the mesmerizing aquarium and the enthralling Museum of Contemporary African Art.
This urban sanctuary, recognized as a Top Hotel in Southern Africa by Conde Nast Traveller readers and Best City Hotel in Africa by Travel & Leisure for three consecutive years, surpasses expectations with its bespoke city experience. The resort's unique design amplifies its exclusivity, featuring tranquil waterways and two secluded island retreats. This feeling is elevated by the private 10,000-plus-square-foot spa island and the presence of Nobu, the prestigious Japanese fusion restaurant's only southern African location.
The dedication to excellence is interwoven with a deep commitment to the preservation of our planet's beauty and diversity. Two of their reimagined suites are a testament to this pledge, entailing a contribution to South Africa's unique ecosystems. The Table Mountain Suite, an homage to local ecology, offers an extraordinary experience while also aiding the Threatened Amphibian Programme. In the same spirit, the Presidential Suite, brimming with the aesthetics of The Great African Sea Forest, contributes to the Turtle Conservation Centre of Two Oceans Aquarium Foundation. The dedication transcends the walls of the suites, with a part of the revenue throughout 2023 pledged towards these organizations. Hence, every stay at One&Only does not just promise indulgence in opulence, but also an opportunity for guests to contribute directly to the much-needed conservation efforts, embodying an exemplary model of sustainability in luxury hospitality.
Living Spaces

Famed for afternoon tea, watch Vista Bar & Lounge come alive into a dynamic social scene.
