One&Only Le Saint Géran

One&Only Le Saint Géran has long been the benchmark for barefoot luxury in Mauritius — a discreet icon perched on its own private peninsula on the island’s north-east coast. Newly refreshed but still unmistakably timeless, it’s the kind of place that turns every moment into something quietly unforgettable.

Days here revolve around a coconut grove, a sugar-white beach that curves for a mile, and a lagoon so calm you’ll wonder why you ever bothered with a pool. Expect personal butlers who appear just when you need them, a spa shaded by ancient banyan trees, and dining that roams from beachside seafood grills to Michelin-level Asian plates.

Watersports come as standard: sailing, kitesurfing, or paddleboarding at dawn. Families are looked after brilliantly, with creative kids’ clubs and gentle lagoons perfect for first snorkels. And when you want a little privacy, your villa’s shaded terrace — or your own stretch of sand — does the job nicely.

Location

One&Only Le Saint Geran

You’ll find One&Only Le Saint Géran on a secluded private peninsula near Belle Mare, on the island’s north-east coast — about an hour’s drive from the airport. The location is a gift: calm lagoon on one side, Indian Ocean drama on the other. Take a short drive inland for sugarcane fields and sleepy villages, or head north to Flacq market for a hit of local colour and street snacks.

Your

accommodation

One&Only’s suites and villas are designed with space and seclusion in mind — think expansive terraces, outdoor showers, and direct beach access that feels like you’re borrowing your own piece of coastline.

Entry-level Lagoon Rooms are anything but basic — you’ll find deep soaking tubs, rain showers, Nespresso machines, and terraces that open straight onto the gardens or beach. Suites dial it up with separate living areas, dreamy oversized bathrooms, and generous balconies for lazy breakfasts delivered by your butler.

If you’re going all in, the Villa One is the resort’s private crown jewel — two bedrooms, a private pool, direct beach frontage and your own team on call to handle everything from sunset barbecues to a pop-up beachfront cinema.

Questions

Yes — you can book diving trips straight from the resort. The calm lagoon is ideal for beginners, while more advanced sites are just a short boat ride away.

Definitely. The east coast is dotted with fishing villages and local markets — Flacq market is a must for fresh produce and local crafts.

Very much so. There’s a complimentary KidsOnly club for children and teens, plus babysitting if grown-ups need a dinner à deux. Children and babies are also treated with gifts on arrival. 

 

We recommend doing so, especially for signature spots and beach dining under the stars — your Swords Travel Associate can handle reservations.
