The Grand Hotel Golf Resort & Spa

"What a beautiful and historic property! From the moment we arrived, the grounds were stunning — huge oak trees, brick pathways, and the perfect blend of Southern charm and coastal relaxation. We loved exploring the gardens and walking down to the bay. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The peaceful waterfront views, complete with swings and a putting green by the water, made it feel like the ultimate getaway. Lunch and cocktails overlooking the bay were perfect — everything beautifully presented and delicious. We also enjoyed the thoughtful touches of history throughout the property, including the statues and tributes that remind you this place has a story to tell. It’s easy to see why The Grand Hotel has been loved for generations. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the Fairhope area — whether for a relaxing weekend, a special celebration, or just a day to unwind by the water. Can’t wait to come back!"

"The eastern shore of Mobile Bay has a lot to offer. Fairhope is one of the last two single tax colonies left in the United States. There is old money here and the city reflects that with beautiful landscaping on almost every corner of the city. The Grand hotel has beautiful grounds that I enjoyed a nice walk after dinner. I was impressed with the comfortable rooms and one of the best breakfast buffets I have ever started my day with."

"Just a great hotel. We came here at Christmas time and my favorite was finding Waldo on the gingerbread house. The room was good and quiet. The Christmas brunch was just food which was good but I was expecting more. The stroll was nice short but confusing as we came from the back end from the hotel and must have started in the middle. Entrance is by the gate. Loved coffee by the early fire. 🔥 the games were fun and it was quite relaxing. ☺️ we will be back for sure. 👍"
