One & Only Le Saint Géran | Mauritius

When you think of tropical islands - what immediately comes to mind? Palm trees, exotic florals, luscious greenery as well as clear blue waters. Well One & Only Le Saint Géran delivered all of the above and more. Upon our arrival at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport we were greeted by the warm smile of our concierge from One & Only.

We took about an hour drive to the beautiful resort located on a tranquil lagoon on the east coast of Mauritius. After serving us some delicious welcome drinks, we checked in and were promptly shown to our suite which had direct access to the beachfront. ( Noah, our little three year old son was extremely excited - and enthusiastically ran out onto the beach and started playing in the sand after check-in. )

I mentioned to the staff that it was Kevin’s birthday and the team prepared the most exquisite hand made chocolate floral dessert which echoed the design of the florals in the entry hall. We loved our stay - from the complimentary snorkel trips, to the guided Central Market Flacq visits to preparing a traditional Mauritian chicken curry with a sous chef to the live music performances as well as the on site Guerlain spa - there were plenty of activities available for guests on site.

Our absolute must-visit recommendations for dinner are Riva as well as Prime. Prime was notably our top highlight. The menu had a vast variety to select from and they served a special cut which we had never encountered before: a wagyu tomahawk. A special mention to the chefs for preparing such tasty and homemade food. The mere thought of the dinners leaves me salivating.

Our stay was nothing short of special to say the least - the team left us feeling right at home with their hospitality and attention to detail. We will miss everyone and cannot wait to visit again soon!

Since 1975, One&Only Le Saint Géran has reigned supreme as Mauritius' most iconic resort—a true Grand Dame perched on 60 acres of lush tropical gardens and the island’s finest beach. This isn’t just a hotel; it’s a sanctuary where style meets seclusion.
