Set on the vibrant Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, One&Only Cape Town delivers one of Africa’s most polished luxury resort experiences—without sacrificing a sense of space or calm. With uninterrupted views of Table Mountain and a private marina at its doorstep, the property feels simultaneously connected to Cape Town’s cultural heartbeat and blissfully removed from it.

The resort’s accommodations are among the most spacious in the city, designed with clean lines, warm textures, and private balconies that frame either the mountain, waterfront, or marina. Guests enjoy a level of service that feels intuitive rather than formal, whether arranging a private wine tasting in Stellenbosch, a helicopter flight along the Cape Peninsula, or a last-minute table at one of the city’s most sought-after restaurants.

At the heart of the resort is a focus on balance—exceptional dining, standout wellness, and seamless access to Cape Town’s beaches, vineyards, and wild coastline. It’s an ideal base for travelers who want luxury that feels grounded, sophisticated, and distinctly South African, while still offering the comfort and consistency of one of the world’s most respected luxury hotel brands.
