The One&Only club is a luxury private resort situated on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Once a private estate, One&Only Ocean Club rests between miles of pristine beach and exquisite gardens inspired by the romantic grandeur of Versailles.

At its apex stand the dramatic arches of a 12th- century Augustinian cloister boasting spectacular sunset views over Nassau Harbor.

The resort features a full-service spa and fitness center, championship golf course, six tennis courts and complimentary non-motorized water sports.
