Top notch, restored to beyond what it's initial glory was when they opened 13 yrs back. Enjoyed our stay, kids loved it. Food was great, max comfort levels and amenities in our room, spa was magnificent as usual and the poolside chill day was something to die for in a lifetime. Will be back
I had the most exquisite experience at the One&Only! From the moment I stepped in, it was sheer luxury and unparalleled hospitality at every turn. The attention to detail was impeccable, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay truly unforgettable. The breathtaking views, sumptuous cuisine, and world-class amenities made it a perfect getaway. If you're looking for a place where every desire is catered to, the One&Only is the ultimate destination. Five stars doesn't do it justice; it deserves a galaxy of stars for its exceptional service and opulence.
