THE EXPERIENCES
If you can tear yourself away from the dazzling beaches, turquoise sea waters or the spectacular pool, there’s plenty to do and discover both on and off-resort.
From Kids' Clubs To Kickboxing
Club One is the resort’s hub for all things active. Besides offering adventurous clubs for kids and tweens, it also boasts a state-of-the-art indoor and outdoor fitness centre, two paddle courts, three floodlit tennis courts, mini golf and football grounds. Break up lazy days with group classes, from spinning and zumba to kick boxing and HIIT, and return home not just well fed but fabulously fit too.
Wild In The Country
One&Only Le Saint Géran has partnered with the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation (MWF) to offer guests a Walk The Wild experience. Led by eco-rangers, you’ll venture through protected nature reserves, stunning waterfalls and spectacular gorges, while coming face to face with Mauritius’ indigenous flora and fauna.
Catch Of The Day
Equally exhilarating is the foodie adventure, One Bonfire, which begins with a morning of deep-sea fishing on board a 55-foot boat. Back on dry land, after a restorative spa visit, you’ll gather for a sunset celebration around the bonfire, to enjoy your own freshly grilled catches.
Take A Bite Out Of Life
For the truly adventurous, there’s the ocean adventure Meet The Sharks. You’ll ride out to sea on the resort’s luxury Legend 33 speedboat before swimming with up to 50 Grey Reef and White Tip sharks in crystal clear waters.
At One With Nature
Nature lovers will be thrilled by the Discover Real Mauritius experience, which offers travellers to chance to explore the natural wonders of the island by hiking off the beaten track deep in the wilderness, from the vast mountain ranges of Le Morne Brabant to the beautiful Tamarind Falls.
An Eco Adventure
Meanwhile, eco-enthusiasts will love the Secret Mangroves experience. Guests are guided through the mature mangroves of the resort’s lagoon by kayak or stand-up paddle to witness this breathtaking untouched ecosystem.
