BOOK now for together time with your One&Only at South Africa’s most prestigious urban resort.

Situated in the heart of the V&A Waterfront and blessed with breathtaking Table Mountain views, One&Only Cape Town is certainly one of the city’s most sought after destinations. And come February it’s one of its most romantic too.

What could be more decadent than an escape to this five-star resort where every last detail is taken care of and the focus is all on your enjoyment? From downtime in the state-of-the-art Spa to award-winning restaurant menus designed to seduce the senses and a host of luxe spoils and special treatment for starry eyed lovers, there’s no doubt that couples intent on enjoying the good life will have come to the right place.

Why not check into the hotel for a night or two and enjoy being ensconced with your loved one with a decadent room service menu for company? Dine a deux in the privacy of your luxurious room with a view and enjoy the romantic offerings such as a rose petal bubble bath and  Champagne on ice or venture to any of the resort’s world-class eateries.

Perhaps a table at Reuben’s, where South African fare with flair is the signature, or at the famed Nobu, where artistic plates of Asian specialities are presented to diners one after the other? Either way food lovers are spoilt for choice. Indulge in your together time and take a stroll onto the hotel’s own private island and spend an afternoon lounging poolside or sneak off for a sunset cocktail at Vista Bar & Lounge and spend a lazy hour or two watching the toings and froings of the harbour.

One&Only Cape Town even offers guests an opportunity to sail off into the sunset in style aboard a private yacht for dinner and for those wanting to go all out, a decadent private dining experience for two can be arranged in a secluded outdoor pavilion overlooking the water. Meanwhile wine and Champagne aficionados will love the thought of a private dinner in the 5000-bottle strong wine loft, home to a myriad superb South African and international vintages.

Of course, when it comes to pampering One&Only Spa certainly delivers. Recent recipient of a number of international awards, recognising the Spa as the best in Africa, One&Only Spa has a series of impressive signature treatments and specialised facilities not seen anywhere else in South Africa. From the Bastien Gonzalez Mani:Pedi:Cure studios to a fascinating menu of African-influenced treatments, visitors to the Spa are in for a top-to-toe spoil.

A number of packages are on offer at the Spa during February and March, including the All You Need is Love Package where guests will be spoilt with:

Glass of Bubbles on arrival
45 min Hot Stone Back, Neck and Shoulder Massage
30 min Colour Touch and Black Diamond Scrub on Hands OR Feet
Full use of Relaxation Suite and Thermal Suite including Vitality Pool, Steam Room, Sauna, Ice Fountain and Experience Showers
Cost R595 per person (usually R675)

Aside from packages such as this, One&Only Cape Town celebrates that when it comes to romance it’s the details that make the difference and the resort has developed a number of ‘romantic details’ for overnighting guests during the months of February and March. For a supplement of R1999, guests will each receive a the All You is Love Spa Package, a gourmet In-Room Dining Romantic menu including a bottle of Methôde Cap Classique OR a voucher for dining at Reuben’s or Nobu and lastly, a fragrant Bed of Roses bath experience.

From time out in the Spa to multi-course meals at Reuben’s or Nobu, escaping to One&Only Cape Town is always a decadent affair – add the romantic details and a visit here will certainly be an unforgettable rendezvous.
