One & Only Resort Hotel in Mauritius

Sarah Fox, South Africa

The One & Only Resort offers a very unique experience for Cape Town. The rooms in the Marina rise offer incredible views over the mountain and the Waterfront. The Island Rooms and Suites are all situated on an island in the Marina around the pool. They offer a feeling of being in a ‘resort’ in the middle of the city. The hotel is well situated within the V&A Waterfront and is a brilliant hotel for couples and families alike. The rooms themselves are very luxuriously appointed and the service is excellent.
