Le Saint Géran

Luxury Mauritius Resorts & Hotels

At One&Only Le Saint Géran, Mauritian influences reign supreme. Originally opened in 1975 and remodeled in 1999, 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, immaculate gardens run down to the edge of the coral-sand beach, which seamlessly wraps the peninsula for over a mile.

The sheltered lagoon provides calm waters for an array of water sports accessible within steps and idyllic for adults and children alike. Deft skills dispense sublime calm and confidence at the spa, a discreet sanctuary with its own private lap pool. The lush Gary Player 9-hole golf course situated in the resort's grounds has its own Golf Academy and clubhouse.

Immortalised in Bernardin de Saint Pierre's novel 'Paul et Virginie,' the resort's peninsula is near the site of Le Saint Géran shipwreck.

Location
On the east coast of Mauritius, One&Only Le Saint Géran graces 60 acres on the beautiful Belle Mare peninsula. The resort is fringed by over a mile of white sand beach, bound by a sheltered cove on one side and by an inviting, eternally beautiful bay on the other. Ringed by a protective hemline of coral reef from the deep Indian Ocean, the peninsula on which One&Only Le Saint Géran sits is very close to the actual site of the wreck of the Le Saint Géran ship in 1744.

The resort is 1 hour from the airport and 40 minutes from the capital of Port Louis.

The island of Mauritius is about 1,800km (1,118 miles) from the east coast of Africa.

Local attractions
Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden With over 8,000 specimens of 800 different species of palms and plants encompassing 37 hectares, the Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden is well worth a visit.

L'Aventure du Sucre Discover the fascinating role of Mauritius' sugar cane history on the island at this interactive exhibition located in the centre of a restored factory.

Chamarel An interesting geological attraction, commonly referred to as Seven Coloured Earth, Chamarel features an undulating ground of varied coloured sand, swirled with patches of blue, green, red, purple and yellow earth, apparently caused by the weathering of volcanic rocks. The nearby Chamarel waterfall emerges from the moors and primeval vegetation and is startlingly beautiful.
