For the first time in its history, the One&Only brand is selling homes. On the peninsula of Le Saint Géran — Mauritius' most legendary address, open since 1975 — a limited collection of 52 beachfront villas is offered in full freehold under the Property Development Scheme (PDS). Every villa has its own direct beach access, private pool and the resort's services.
The villas come in two architectural styles — 'Modern Mauritian' with a pitched roof or 'Contemporary' with a flat roof — from 280 to 758 m² of living space on plots of 1,004 to 2,973 m². Sales have been remarkable: 41 villas sold off-plan, including all 2 and 3 bedrooms; 4-bedroom villas remain available, the rest trades on resale.
For the HNWI buyer, the thesis is clear: freehold beachfront that has all but vanished in Mauritius, the rental power of a global brand via the One&Only Rental Programme, a residence permit from USD 375,000 — and Mauritian taxation: 0% capital gains, 0% inheritance tax and a personal income scale of 0/10/20%.
For 50 years, Le Saint Géran has been Mauritius' most storied address — the east coast peninsula where starred chefs and lifelong regulars cross paths. The Private Homes add something unprecedented: living there in full ownership, with the resort as an extension of your house.

Le Saint Géran occupies a private peninsula on the east coast, bordered by the Indian Ocean on one side and a turquoise lagoon on the other. The Private Homes line the beach, each with direct access to the sand — a freehold beachfront configuration found nowhere else on the island.

Owners enjoy the entire resort: five restaurants, pools, water sports club, tennis, fitness and the Guerlain spa. A 24-hour concierge and buggy service links every villa to the heart of the resort — palace-level service, applied to your residence.

Each Private Home comes in two architectural styles: 'Modern Mauritian' with a pitched roof, or 'Contemporary' with a flat roof. From 280 to 758 m² of living space on plots of 1,004 to 2,973 m², all with private pools and designed tropical gardens.

The Private Homes Rental Programme — optional and with no blackout dates — entrusts the marketing and management of your villa to One&Only. The resort rents your home to its international clientele when you are away, and you receive the income.
