At One&Only Le Saint Géran, the first international 5 star property on the island, Mauritian influences reign supreme. The resort’s relaxed and discreet luxury is complemented by service that is attentive, yet unobtrusive. Here, terraced and balconied rooms all face out privately to the Indian Ocean. Under the calm sway of thousands of coconut palms, 60 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds take in tropical gardens, pools and beaches. With sensuous health and beauty treatments, golf, tennis and water sports, One&Only Le Saint Géran always fulfils the promise of its timeless reputation.
From the cuisine of Michelin-starred Chef Alain Ducasse who will be joined shortly by Michelin-starred Chef Vineet Bhatia, to the relaxed ambience of the thatched-roof Pool Bar, guests enjoy a variety of restaurants and bars catering to every taste, mood and occasion.
Rasoi by Vineet
Michelin starred Vineet Bhatia opens his highly acclaimed restaurant Rasoi at One&Only Le Saint Géran in October 2007. The new tropical waterside restaurant will enjoy a magnificent natural setting, with views of the green sugarcane-clad mountains and the private lagoon. The show kitchen will feature Vineet's signature live acts including a TAK-A-TAK grill, a form of traditional Indian Tepanyaki, an open charcoal grill, a Rooma Roti and two Tandoors.
La Terrasse
Surrounding the pool and overlooking the Indian Ocean, La Terrasse offers an eclectic variety of local and international specialities. Breakfast offers a sumptuous buffet featuring eggs cooked to order, fresh baked breads, pastries, cheeses, tropical fruit, freshly ground coffees and vanilla-flavoured Mauritian tea. Lunch follows with a choice of fresh local fish and seafood complemented with Asian-inspired specialties.
Nightly entertainment accompanies dinner, providing an exquisite voyage of cultural discovery. Table d’hôte menus feature mouth-watering crayfish and prawns straight from the ocean, spicy temptations of home-grown Creole cuisine, and the delicate subtleties of France, India, China and Asia.
Givenchy Spa
With a requisite that the locale be ‘magical,’ there are only a handful of Givenchy Spas in the world, and one of them makes its home at One&Only Le Saint Géran. The Givenchy Spa is a haven of well-being, a temple dedicated to beauty and serenity, where mind and body are relaxed and soothed by dedicated and professional staff. The tropical garden and superb lap pool are designed to blend in harmony with the resort’s architecture. Using Swisscare products by Group LVMH Laboratories developed specifically for Givenchy, the experience is unique. From a simple sauna to full hydrotherapy, reflexology or a massage, Givenchy Spa invites guests to unwind and rediscover physical and mental harmony.
Exquisite taste and grand opulence seamlessly blend with state-of-the-art technology within One&Only Le Saint Géran's 162 suites and one villa. Panoramic windows seem to magically bring the azure sea and lagoon close enough to touch. Beds are covered with Egyptian cotton sheets, piled high with goose down pillows. Every piece of hand selected furniture along with the artful colours of Indian Ocean spices contribute to the suites’ gentle ambience.
