Tennis

Surrounded by palm trees and the lagoon – and illuminated for night play, too – five north-facing synthetic grass courts are available for play anytime day or night. The resort’s tennis pro is also available for individual coaching.

Excursions

On an island regarded for its fabulous waterfalls, coastline, flora and fauna, guests may discover nature reserves, reefs for snorkeling, hiking trails, and the Botanical Pamplemousses Garden, known for its collection of indigenous and exotic plants, including the giant water lilies and the talipot palm, which is meant to flower every sixty years and then die.

Port Louis, capital city of Mauritius, bustles with shopping at the vibrant Caudan waterfront and the colourful market fragrant with the scent of exotic spices.

Not to be missed is a visit to Mahebourg, where an 18th century colonial residence houses the Naval Museum. Here, numerous relics recovered from shipwrecks are on display with a collection of maps and etchings depicting the legend of ‘Paul et Virginie,’ the Bernardin de Saint-Pierre story of innocent young love that is so synonymous with the natural beauty and history of Mauritius.

Water Sports

Complimentary water sports abound at One&Only Le Saint Géran, with the calm waters of the cove providing ideal conditions for kayaks, pedal boats, banana-boat and tube rides, as well as complimentary water-skiing; and the coral-sea lagoon on the ocean side offering exceptional snorkeling, windsurfing, Hobie Cats and mono-hull lasers.

Mauritius is paradise for water-lovers, and some of the world’s most prominent names in water sports have found a home at One&Only Le Saint Géran. Guests may choose to perfect their skills – or simply learn a new sport – at The John Battleday Water-ski and Wakeboard Academy (JBWA) or VIP Kite & Stand Up Paddle (SUP) School, both offering novice to advanced instruction for a fee. The vast white sand beach, beautiful flat water lagoon and challenging reef waves make the resort the finest kite surfing destination on the island.

Contemporary décor adds a chic and stylish atmosphere to the restaurant. Burnt-orange walls with terracotta undertones, creamy-white leather club chairs and ambient lighting create the perfect backdrop for exceptional dining.

Rasoi by Vineet

Located along the water’s edge, the restaurant enjoys a magnificent natural setting, with views of the green sugarcane-clad mountains and the private lagoon. Dining at Rasoi by Vineet is a multi-sensory experience, from the atmospheric tropical fans and bespoke chill-out music to the delectable aromas from the wood-fired oven and open Tandoor. The lunch menu offers a relaxed mix of “Pizzaans”, wraps, Dosas, salads, grills and an Indian ‘Mezzeh’ in tapas-sized portions. Iced-teas, fruit lassis and detox fruit smoothies – the perfect accompaniments to lunch.
