Tucked away on a private island, nestled amidst waterways and manicured gardens lies the One&Only Spa. The intimate retreat, fashioned in contemporary style with accents of African decor, has 10 treatment rooms, including two with private wet areas for solo spa-goers or couples, overlooking the marina. Before or after treatments, guests can spend moments of calm in the two vitality pools with air massage recliners, a naturally lit sauna, aroma-steam rooms, and experience showers. Beauty services can be taken in the hair salon and Pedi: Mani: Cure Studio by Bastien Gonzalez.

Customized holistic spa services celebrate the ESPA brand with native ingredients and include the hallmark One&Only Cape Town Essence of Earth and Ocean Experience. The 120-minute ritual, inspired by the original inhabitants of Cape Peninsula, utilizes indigenous sea salt, South African seaweed, and warmed sea shells during the body exfoliation, scalp and body massage, and wrap.
