Welcome to One&Only

One&Only

Kick your shoes off and unwind in unpar­alleled luxury at One&Only resorts
  Set in some of the most beautiful locales in the world, a rare collection of jewel-like resorts embrace individually authentic styles and person­alities born of their local culture. Remote island retreats, enchanting palaces and contem­porary haute chic villas, each feature a genuine hospitality and a lively energy that are unrivalled.

In the Indian Ocean and Africa, Arabian Gulf, the Pacific and Caribbean, discover the promise of distinctive resorts and unique exper­iences in the world’s best destinations.

Experience

Each One&Only resort delivers a distinctive experience born of its envir­onment and local culture. Although unique in character, all resorts share a passion for the values that define One&Only and its special promise to guests.

Accomodation

The sumptuously appointed guestrooms and suites found at each One&Only resort are havens of sublime comfort and supreme elegance, each reflecting the culture and crafts of its individual location, and all featuring views of the ocean or sea. Guests are looked after with genuine hospitality and service – discreet and profes­sional, touched by the freshness of local warmth and charm. So much more than a place to stay…but rather, a lavish sanctuary for a rich collection of moments designed to create life’s most treasured experiences.

Activites

Each One&Only resort offers the perfect setting for rare moments of romance, adventure and excitement, fuelled by a unique energy drawn from its natural landscape and culture. From active enrichment – diving some of the world’s best sites in the Indian Ocean, Cape Peninsula and Caribbean, surfing the sand dunes in Arabia, hiking the tropical forests in Mauritius, deep-sea fishing off Mexico’s Baja peninsula, to sublime rejuvenation—pampering spa treatments in private garden villas, relaxing yoga on an over-water pavilion, or just stealing away an afternoon in the sumptuous comfort of an exquisite ocean-view suite.

Dining

The culinary experience at a One&Only resort is a feast of discovery…about the cuisine, about the place, about the senses. Upon arrival at any One&Only restaurant—be it a fine dining venue serving the cuisine of a Michelin-starred chef to a magical seaside bistro—guests are greeted with an overwhelming sense of welcome.

Spa and fitness

One&Only Spas are blissful sanctuaries of tranquillity, where the body is restored and the soul is soothed. Just as each One&Only resort is individually designed and inspired by its local surroundings, so too, is each One&Only Spa. Within each unique spa envir­onment, the highest levels of person­alised care and pampering are consistently lavished upon guests with indulgent blends of contem­porary treatments and authentic rituals.

Families

Each One&Only resort welcomes families and children of all ages, playing to an individual sense of discovery and the child-like fascination that lives within each of us. From the sand dunes of Arabia to the crystal waters of the Caribbean, families enjoy imaginative, fully-supervised programmes for children, and a roster of activities that allows for family time together and individual moments apart.

Weddings & Honeymoon

From the sublime – an overnight escape to a private island in the Indian Ocean complete with champagne, inspired cuisine, and a bed on a beach…to the fairytale – a white­washed Mexican wedding chapel set against a pure blue Baja sky, with a horse drawn carriage to whisk newlyweds away, One&Only Resorts provides the exotically supreme locales, sumptuous amenities and services, and thoughtful attention to detail for life’s most treasured occasions.

The greatest celeb­rations in life are seamlessly woven together to create moments of ultimate refinement, excitement and discovery. A dedicated Celebrations Consultant on staff at each One&Only Resort adds creativity and finesse in arranging the details of each once-in-a-lifetime experience.
