An island vibe right in the heart of Cape Town
One&Only Cape Town is located on the lively V&A Waterfront, with Table Mountain serving as a stunning backdrop. Yet the resort feels surprisingly detached from the city. Waterways wind past lush island gardens, palm trees surround the pool, and from virtually every vantage point, the iconic mountain draws the eye. As soon as you step outside, the energetic city of Cape Town awaits; inside, a distinct resort rhythm sets the pace for the day.
The spacious rooms and suites are located in Marina Rise or along the waterfront on the island. Large windows and private terraces bring the harbor, the skyline, or Table Mountain right into the room, while contemporary South African art and warm, natural materials lend character to the space. Choose a room with a direct view of the mountain, a suite with a separate living area, or a spacious family suite where everyone can find their own space.
Table Mountain as a compass
One&Only Cape Town is much more than just a place to return to after a day in the city. The resort serves as the starting point for hikes through the mountains, wine tastings, ocean adventures, and encounters with the Cape’s unique wildlife. Paddle along the tranquil waterways around the hotel, dive among the kelp forests, or take a behind-the-scenes look at the sea turtle sanctuary at the nearby Two Oceans Aquarium.
After that, Cape Town slows down a bit. Find a cabana by the pool, retreat to the spa for a treatment inspired by the southern starry sky, or immerse yourself in the city’s flavors during a wine workshop or sushi master class. In the evening, enjoy Japanese and Peruvian signature dishes at Nobu, South African flavors from the grill at ROOI, or a relaxed lunch by the pool at Isola. At Vista, round out the day with a cocktail as the last rays of the sun glide over the slopes of Table Mountain. Even without leaving the resort, the destination’s essence is ever-present: in the art, the local ingredients, the wine cellar, and the view of the mountain that seems to change color by the hour.

Our travel tip
“Plan a guided hike through the mountainous landscape around Cape Town early in your stay. Then set aside the afternoon for the island pool and the spa, and head to Vista as the sun sets. You won’t want to miss the moment when the last rays of sunlight glide over Table Mountain.”
