A dynamic coastal destination, The Grand has excursions for every taste and pace. Active guests can tee off at two championship courses on the famed Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail, set sail for deep-sea fishing, play tennis or try stand-up paddleboarding. Others can indulge in gentler pursuits such as horseshoes, poolside relaxation, and unwinding in the posh seclusion of a 20,000-square-foot, pampering-filled spa. Beyond our grounds, explore the eminently walkable Fairhope, recognized as one of the most charming small towns in America, with its own French Quarter, and numerous intriguing businesses and boutiques.
