Thank you so much to Ash, Michele, our host team, and all the staff including restaurant, gym, bar and housekeeping and more, who made our honeymoon hugely memorable! Nothing is too much, and they pulled out all the stops, constantly surprising us each day with kindness, extra treats, an incredible suite upgrade, and even a late check out to allow us to go snorkeling which had been previously cancelled. The whole stay was amazing, the food was impeccable, the hotel was beautiful, the spa was relaxing, the drinks were great plus fab mocktails, the fitness facilities were brilliant including professional tennis players, I would highly highly recommend to all, it really is a cut above all other hotels. And, despite the quality level of the hotel, there is still an extremely friendly atmosphere at all times. Thank you so much we had a beautiful few days which we will never forget. Charlotte & Joe

What an exceptional trip to the One&only in Mauritius... ❤️ The Food was excellent and all the staff very attentive to details. Some even went beyond to ensure we're well looked after and among I would extend my heartfelt Thanks to Juanita at breakfast with her smile and Wardah who came to ensure we have our special coffee everyday. Our host as well looked after our requests on time. Many thanks to you all for an amazing job.

My stay at One&Only Le Saint Géran was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere of elegance, serenity, and world-class hospitality was evident in every detail. The property itself is breathtaking, with pristine beaches, lush surroundings, and beautifully designed spaces that create a perfect balance between luxury and comfort. What truly made the experience stand out, however, was the level of service. Every staff member went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was seamless and memorable. A special mention must go to the boutique store team — their service was absolutely outstanding. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly warm, making the shopping experience feel personal and enjoyable rather than transactional. I would also like to commend the manager for their professionalism and dedication. Their presence was reassuring, and it was clear that they genuinely care about maintaining the highest standards across the resort. A highlight of my stay was the buffet experience, where Mr. Ibrahim and his team delivered truly exceptional service. Their attention to detail, friendliness, and efficiency made every meal a pleasure. They were always welcoming, quick to assist, and ensured that everything was perfectly in place. It’s rare to see such consistency and genuine hospitality, and it made a lasting impression. Additionally, Mr Antoine and his team were amazing from the boutique store. They were filled with warmth and excellent service. Overall, One&Only Le Saint Géran is more than just a luxury resort — it’s an experience defined by excellence in service, beautiful surroundings, and a team that truly cares about their guests. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a refined and unforgettable getaway, and I look forward to returning Thank you for the excellent and a special thanks to, Baasil, Kavir, Adrien, Rambo, Kol, Jason and Fahim and Joyce. Thank you, O&O

“In depth Review: One&Only Le Saint Géran, Mauritius”

Having stayed in many 5-star hotels around the world, I approached One&Only Le Saint Géran with high expectations. Overall, it is a beautiful resort with outstanding service, but there are some important nuances worth knowing before booking. 1. Location The resort is located on the north-east coast, which is one of the better areas on the island. While you won’t get sunsets, you’ll enjoy beautiful sunrises and generally more sunshine during the day, thanks to the absence of mountains that often attract clouds elsewhere on the island. A strong location overall. 2. Service Simply top-tier. The staff is attentive, warm, and genuinely helpful at all times. Service is seamless and consistent throughout the stay. The inclusion of a dedicated butler adds another layer of comfort and personalization. Truly one of the standout aspects of the resort. 3. Facilities & Beach The beach is good, but not among the best in Mauritius. There is noticeable seaweed and some stones in the water, which slightly affect both the view and swimming experience. • The north beach is clearly better • The western side has greener water (due to mangroves) and more stones — less appealing A few maintenance details stood out negatively: • Beach lounge mattresses were not consistently clean • The roof at La Terrasse restaurant could use cleaning • The La Pointe pool area feels slightly dated and could benefit from renovation 4. Atmosphere & Surroundings Visually, the resort is stunning. Lush palm trees, well-maintained Bermuda grass, and beautifully designed grounds create a truly tropical atmosphere. However, a few downsides: • Beach vendors pass by several times a day (around 4–5 times), offering souvenirs. They are polite, but it becomes repetitive over time • The resort is not adults-only. There are many families, so expect noise from children, especially around pools and restaurants Additionally, from a personal perspective, the resort feels quite large and somewhat commercial. If you prefer a more intimate, boutique-style or adults-only experience, this may not fully meet those expectations. 5. Rooms The rooms are spacious, elegant, and well-maintained. Housekeeping is excellent. Negatives: • Sound insulation is weak — you may hear noise from neighboring rooms or children • Charging around €6 for bottled water in the room feels inappropriate at this price level. Many comparable hotels provide complimentary water outside the minibar or have accessible water stations, which is not the case here 6. Restaurants Absolutely phenomenal. The culinary experience is a highlight of the stay. • The Italian and Japanese restaurants are must-visits • Expect around €130 per person, but the quality justifies it • The beef short ribs at the Japanese restaurant are exceptional 7. Price–Value & Billing This is one of the most expensive resorts in Mauritius, and there is a noticeable tendency toward upselling. The half-board option is particularly problematic: • Priced at 5500 MUR (~€115) per person per day • Poor exchange rate effectively makes you lose €10–20 daily • It works as a daily credit (dinner only, no beverages) • Unused credit expires daily, and any excess is charged In practice, this system offers no real advantage and may even cost more. For a resort of this level, one would expect incentives or discounts—not the opposite. It feels poorly designed and not guest-friendly. Recommendation: avoid half-board. 8. Booking Tip (Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts) Booking through Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts can be beneficial (e.g., room upgrades). One useful tip: • Book one night less — due to the guaranteed late check-out (after 16:00), you effectively extend your stay without paying for an extra night 9. Billing Accuracy Double-check your final bill carefully. In my case: • A 17,000 MUR charge appeared for a restaurant I never visited • The $100 Amex credit was not initially applied Both were corrected, but only after raising the issue—and it delayed my departure while I was heading to the airport early morning ⸻ Final Verdict One&Only Le Saint Géran offers exceptional service, stunning grounds, and world-class dining. However, it falls short in some operational details, beach quality, and pricing transparency. Best for: Guests seeking luxury service, beautiful surroundings, and top gastronomy Be aware of: Beach limitations, family-oriented environment, and pricing structure (especially half-board), as well as the large, less intimate resort feel Overall: A strong luxury resort, but not flawless—and at this price point, those details matter.
