One&Only Royal Mirage, Arabian Court, Dubai

Regal-inspired indulgence and relaxation cleverly combine to create this luxury hideaway, one of three distinct hotels within the Royal Mirage resort, set amongst luxuriant gardens.

One&Only Le Saint Géran, Mauritius

One&Only Cape Town, South Africa

Spend quality time in South Africa at this exceptional city hideaway, set in the heart of the bustling Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. While little ones enjoy the complimentary KidsOnly club and teens indulge with dedicated activities throughout the resort, adults can take advantage of the fabulous spa located on its own private island or sample world-class local labels in the tri-level wine loft. Family dinners can be enjoyed in one of the three eateries here, including the continent's only Nobu restaurant!

One&Only Palmilla, Mexico

Over in magical Mexico, dreamy days filled with romance await at One&Only Palmilla, whether you're seeking sheer relaxation or high adrenaline activities. Spot whales as you cruise along the Los Cabos coastline by luxury private yacht, Champagne in hand of course, or hop into kayaks and head over to the insanely romantic Lover's Beach... never has a name been more apt! If you fancy a tipple, tequila tasting is a great way to capture the spirit (literally) of Mexico, while the local marine life is best seen on a snorkelling trip for two.

One&Only Nyungwe House and One&Only Gorilla's Nest, Rwanda

For serious bucket-list-ticking adventures in Rwanda, surrounded by tea fields and ancient rainforest, One&Only Nyungwe House blends seamlessly into the landscape of the Nyungwe Forest National Park. Each aspect of the property celebrates Rwanda's nature and heritage - from an infinity pool overlooking the lush valley and daily ceremonies in the Tea Lounge, to indigenous Rwandan artwork throughout and holistic spa therapies using local plants. The choice of activities here is infinite. You can spot chimpanzees in their natural habitat on an expert-led trek, enjoy birdwatching amid the forest, or give back to the community by helping to build schools or purchasing charming handmade objects from local villagers.

Also in Rwanda and the perfect pairing with Nyungwe House, One&Only Gorilla's Nest invites you to discover the delights of the country's famed Volcanoes National Park. This densely forested area is home to around 300 majestic mountain gorillas, an elusive and endangered species with which humans share around 98% of their DNA! Head out with an expert local tracker in search of a family of these incredible animals, enjoying a once-in-a-lifetime wildlife experience. Other activities on offer include trekking to the tomb of American activist Dian Fossey, ascending Mount Bisoke, or visiting a 'living museum' that invites you to experience the traditions of Rwanda alongside locals.

Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley, Australia

Return to life's simple pleasures amid Australia's UNESCO-listed Greater Blue Mountains at Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley. Inspired by an authentic Aussie homestead and set within over 7,000 acres, there is no shortage of space here - something that's more important than ever these days. The resort offers a seemingly endless choice of alfresco pursuits. You may choose to ride on horseback through the native woodland (the resort is home to stables full of calm horses), mountain bike across rising escarpments, hop in a 4WD for a tour of the surrounding mountains, or join a stargazing session beneath the captivatingly clear night sky. There is also a huge focus on conservation here; ingredients are sourced from the resort's own 1832 Heritage Garden, while complimentary conservation sessions invite all ages to make a hands-on contribution to the restoration of the reserve - from tree planting to wombat surveys.

One&Only Mandarina, Mexico

Having opened its doors in late 2020, this sustainably designed Mexican retreat has also joined the exclusive One&Only portfolio. It blends beautifully into the undeveloped coastal rainforest of the Riveria Nayarit and is made up solely of standalone treehouses and cliffside villas, each one with a private pool deck. As well as plenty of relaxation and top-class luxury, the resort offers a wealth of astonishing adventures. Zipline through the trees, visit the nearby Mandarina Polo & Equestrian Club, or explore miles of nature trails on foot, bicycle or horseback. Choose from several sea-faring adventures and discover the delights of the Pacific Ocean - including sailing, surfing, paddle boarding, whale watching and fishing with local legends - or kayak up the estuary that winds through the landscape, home to unique wildlife and hundreds of migrating bird species.
