Description:
Location. Set above a tranquil beach that stretches along Paradise Island's north shore, the One & Only Ocean Club is positioned on 35 tropical acres. The Ocean Club Golf Course is located less than one mile from the resort.
Hotel Features. Originally, Huntington Hartford II purchased this estate as a retreat for his jet-set crowd. Since that time, the resort continues to draw entertainment luminaries, royalty and politicians from around the world. The beachfront DUNE restaurant offers a dinner menu with Bahamian accents. Breakfast selections include smoked salmon, semolina cakes with roasted pineapple and Gruyere omelets. The Library Bar serves Cuban cigars, fine brandies, cocktails and wine. Evian-water mists and afternoon sorbet offer heat relief at the gardens that feature a large outdoor pool surrounded by palm trees. The Versailles-inspired gardens harbor giant statues of Franklin D. Roosevelt and David Livingstone, and a 12th-century Augustinian cloister that Hartford purchased from William Randolph Hearst. The health spa employs Asian holistic therapies and includes a beauty salon. Decorated with Balinese carved-wood and Thai silk pillows, each villa includes side-by-side Japanese treatment tables.
Guestrooms. This resort offers 106 air-conditioned guestrooms in two wings reminiscent of West Indian colonial architecture. Each room includes a private balcony or terrace. Exceptional amenities feature 24-hour personal butler service, champagne and strawberries delivered every afternoon and daily fresh-fruit bowls. Extra-thick mattresses, Frette linens, comforters and pillow menus encourage sleeping comfort. Each room includes an entertainment center with 32-inch televisions and CD/DVD players. Two-poster beds with elaborately carved headboards, lacquered furniture, Art Deco chrome lamps and cocktail tables displaying a single orchid create stylish settings.
Expert Tip. Complimentary shuttles transport guests to the Atlantis resort where they have access to 21 restaurants and lounges, water attractions and 11 marine-life viewing lagoons. Also available are a teen club, the children's Discovery Channel Camp and a casino.
