With the school year now underway, parents� minds are turning to the next holiday � and what better than an innovative, state-of-the-art kids club at one of the world�s best resorts, which takes looking after young guests to another level? The new KidsOnly at One&Only Le Saint G�ran, Mauritius, opening its doors to young adventurers in October, offers all this and more � created by professionals who understand that happy kids mean happy parents.

Chests filled with gold coins, a map showing the whereabouts of hidden treasures, ropes and pulleys and sea shells galore, the design of the clubhouse takes its inspiration from Bernardin de St Pierre�s legend of Paul et Virginie, the tragic lovers immortalised in the romantic novel about �Le Saint G�ran�, the doomed ship which sank off the coastline of Mauritius. Authentic materials including driftwood, and netting, combined with seascapes and sailors �charms� to encourage imaginative minds and create a stimulating surrounding.

Andrew Milton, General Manager, said: �At One&Only Le Saint G�ran we want our young guests to have just as a great time as their parents. The KidsOnly activity programme and clubhouse have been designed to encourage play and laughter in a safe environment, providing our young visitors with the opportunity to make friends, learn new skills and most importantly, to have fun. The aim is to raise the bar and create the ultimate kids� holiday. Our experienced and enthusiastic KidsOnly staff can�t wait to see the smiles on the faces of all the little guests who walk through the doors.�

The action packed KidsOnly activity programme provides something for children of all ages and tastes. Each day of the week sees a different theme, Paradise Island to Aquatic, and a fresh selection of activities for the various age groups, all fully supervised by highly trained, multilingual staff, enabling parents to relax, safe in the knowledge that their kids are having the time of their lives in good hands.

For the creative, there is plenty to learn from mosaic making and Mauritian Sega dancing to kite making and cookery classes - where little chefs are kitted out in personalised chefs� uniforms. Night time treasure hunts and banana-boating are ideal for little adventurers while budding actors will enjoy taking part in the stage productions. Active types are in for a treat with golf initiations, mini beach Olympics, volleyball, tennis and boat rides. And the extensive white sand beaches and calm water of the lagoon make One&Only Le Saint G�ran the ideal spot for young water-sports enthusiasts. The resort offers water-skiing, snorkeling, surfing and kayaking, with specially adapted equipment for young guests learning the ropes, such as Aquaplanes which enable children to water-ski directly from the beach.

The clubhouse is a wonderland packed with the latest toys and games, and a dizzying array of electronic gadgetry and crafts. The Movie Room is a treasure trove, featuring the latest video game systems from Sony PS3, XBOX 360, Nintendo Wii and a 52-inch LCD TV with a digital surround sound system. A karaoke system is also available for kids to recreate the hit songs of their pop heroes.

KidsOnly at One&Only Le Saint G�ran is a complimentary service for the resort�s guests aged from four to 11 years old. Children under four years must be accompanied by an adult and baby-sitters are available at a nominal charge. KidsOnly opens its doors from 10am to 10pm each day with activity programmes running throughout these hours on a daily basis. Activities also include special lunch and dinner menus. A programme of activities for guests aged between 12 and 17 years is also available and run by their own dedicated Sports and Entertainment team.
