Whether you’re dreaming of beachside bliss, rural seclusion or a jungle adventure, these extraordinary resorts combine unrivaled personal service and the finest offerings, with all manner of cross-generational fun and games on tap. Gaze across an uninterrupted horizon from a dreamy ocean-front villa at One&Only Le Saint Géran in Mauritius – the historic grand dame on the Belle Mare Peninsula, which recently reopened to much fanfare following its extensive refurb. Take in iconic skylines from an inner-city fantasy island in Dubai at One&Only The Palm, surrounded by tranquil waterways. Imbibe all the sybaritic pleasures of Cape Town from an enviable position on the V&A Waterfront at the glamorous One&Only Cape Town resort.

Or why not enjoy a front-row seat to the wonders of nature at One&Only’s latest opening: One&Only Nyungwe House, a tropical jungle retreat nestled in the foothills of Rwanda’s remote Nyungwe forest. With over 80 miles of walking trails and a suspended canopy walk, the chimpanzee tracking in Nyungwe is particularly rewarding for the other mammals and birds encountered en route, while the resort’s elegantly appointed villas, superb spa and sleek infinity pool mean guests don’t have to forgo luxury in the wild.

You could also saddle up and give free rein to your sense of adventure as you explore Australia’s rugged outback at Emirates One&Only’s Wolgan Valley, which offers some of the best horseback riding in the Greater Blue Mountains valley. Cushioned in vast protected wilderness, among cliffs and canyons carved by time, Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley is a chic conservation retreat that immerses you in nature and reinvigorates your soul. Epic fresh air adventures, rustic seasonal dining, blissful private villas, and pure, inspiring wellness – this is Australia at its finest.

For those looking to decompress at a beachside paradise with sugar-white sands, One&Only’s Pamilla resort is one of Los Cabos’ most iconic addresses and home to the impressive Agua by Larbi, a top destination for creative Latin American cuisine. Then there is of course the Maldives’ much-loved One&Only Reethi Rah resort. Many guests return year after year, having fallen in love not only with the island and its teeming sea life, but also the resort’s unique ethos: the wonderfully warm and attentive team truly make it feel like home (the 24-hour butler service is phenomenal). Situated on one of the largest private islands in the Maldives, this otherworldly resort hovers on the boundary between land and sea. And whether you’re traveling aboard a white-sailed dhoni in search of dolphins or visiting the sandbank, ecological consciousness is never far away.

Or you could experience the vibrant heart of New Dubai at One&Only Royal Mirage, enveloped in a kilometer of private beach and luxuriant gardens. Enjoy a sanctuary of old-world splendor where indulgence and adventure gloriously combine. Enjoy curated experiences through a dazzling city, from renowned urban attractions to golden desert and sparkling sea; a blend of ancient healing and modern wellness in a legendary spa with an authentic Hammam; and exquisite destination dining where rich, exotic flavors are brought to life in breathtaking surrounds. What’s more, there are three distinct Arabesque-style residences where families and couples can find their own space, enwrapped in the gracious care of One&Only’s consummate team.

No one does global glamour quite like One&Only: the ultimate get-away-from-it-all vacations where you can be yourself, indulge in the luxury of your own rhythms and rituals and feel truly at home.
