This morning I met Johan du Toit for a site inspection of the One &amp; Only Luxury Resort at the V &amp; A Waterfront. They are offering a Romantic Retreat Special for\u00a02 nights from R4530 per person (land rooms only) making one of Africa&#8217;s finest and most out-of-reach resorts an affordable and tempting option to celebrate an anniversary or special birthday. Johan showed me around so I could have a look at one of their Marina Harbour rooms (included in the special), and the extensive grounds and spa facilities. Have a look at our video clip below to get an idea of what the special entails:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Romantic Retreat at The One &amp; Only\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Mgfsh-osCg0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>All the Marina Harbour rooms face the waterfront, as I walked out onto the balcony I saw two well-proportioned seals basking in the sunshine on one of the piers below. The bathrooms are expansive and equipped with Charlotte Rhys bath products. The package includes a candle lit rose petal turndown making this a good choice for a romantic anniversary celebration.<\/p>\n<p>Included in the 2 night special are daily breakfasts at celebrated chef Reuben Riffel&#8217;s restaurant and on one of the nights, a three course select dinner for 2 at Reuben&#8217;s (drinks excluded).<\/p>\n<p>You could plan your stay so your other nights&#8217; dinner coincides with one of Reuben&#8217;s Wine &amp; Dine deluxe 5-course winter dinners held at various wine estates such as M\u00f4reson, Steenberg and Graham Beck. Reuben\u2019s Wine&amp;Dine evenings are priced at R395 per person.<\/p>\n<p>The program is as follows:<\/p>\n<p>30<sup>th<\/sup> June \u2013 Steenberg Wines<\/p>\n<p>28<sup>th<\/sup> July \u2013 Morgenster Estate Vertical Masterclass<\/p>\n<p>25<sup>th<\/sup> August \u2013 Graham Beck Wines.<\/p>\n<p>I was led onto the island to visit their spa, a highlight of the two night stay for those seeking a respite from a stressful work week. Included in the special is either a 30 minute ESPA full body salt and oil scrub, a 30 minute ESPA back, neck and shoulder massage, a 30 minute Bastien Gonzalez foot refoundation massage or a 30 minute personal training session. You are also given free range of the fitness centre and Thermal suite.<\/p>\n<p>The Special is valid until the 24 September, book <a title=\"Book a &lt;a href=\" target=\"_blank\">Romantic Retreat<\/a> at the One &amp; Only&#8221; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelstart.co.za\/lp\/cheap-flights-to-cape-town\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div>Other events at the One &amp; Only include the Dad&#8217;s Day High Tea on the 21 June, when petits fours will be replaced with mini-burgers, sosaties and sausage rolls paired with Bisquit Cognac. Remember to book ahead. Call: 021 431 4511.<\/div>\n<p>If you&#8217;re feeling energetic then in between meals at Reuben&#8217;s and your spa session get out and explore the Waterfront. Kick off your explorations by taking a 5-minute stroll from the resort, past the Two Oceans Aquarium to the Watershed, where you can peruse locally-made luxury mohair products, delicate ceramics or sartorially savvy Mungo &amp; Jemima threads. Finish off with a flat white from the Field Office at the Watershed.<\/p>\n<h2>Activities at the Waterfront<\/h2>\n<h2>Stand-up Paddle Boarding with SUP Cape Town<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-39339\" src=\"https:\/\/travelstartmu.wpenginepowered.com\/zablog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/10\/image_11.jpg\" alt=\"Stand up Paddleboarding at the Waterfront\" width=\"780\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"> Courtesy of SUP Cape Town<\/span><\/p>\n<p>On a sunny day we suggest the intrepid rent a Stand Up Paddle Board from SUP Cape Town.
