Fairmont La Hacienda, opened in early 2025, marks the brand’s elegant debut in Spain. Set within the serene hillsides of La Alcaidesa between Sotogrande and Gibraltar, the resort blends five-star hospitality, Andalusian charm, and eco-conscious design. With a €130 million investment, it features 153 rooms, 47 luxury villas, two championship golf courses, a world-class spa, and several exceptional dining venues—redefining the luxury experience on the Costa del Sol.

Design That Honors Place and Nature

The architecture mirrors the traditional white villages of southern Spain, terracing down the hillside to maximize views of the Mediterranean. Interiors showcase natural tones and materials such as Campaspero stone, jute, glazed ceramics, and soft linens. Almost every room and villa offers sweeping views of the sea, Gibraltar, or the surrounding mountains, creating a tranquil and immersive environment.

Refined Accommodations with Space and Style

Guests can choose from a range of accommodation types at Fairmont La Hacienda designed for couples, families, or larger groups. Deluxe Sea View Rooms offer over 50 square meters of calm, sun-filled space, with marble bathrooms, rainfall showers, and large terraces. Suites range from 70 to 370 square meters and come with private pools or generous living areas. Villas span 450 to over 1,200 square meters and include up to nine bedrooms, full kitchens, landscaped gardens, and private swimming pools—ideal for long stays or ultimate privacy.

Culinary Experiences for Every Taste

The resort offers five standout dining venues. Dalmar, helmed by renowned chef Benito Gómez, presents a seasonal menu at Fairmont La Hacienda focused on local ingredients and aged meats. El Faro serves Mediterranean breakfasts and all-day casual dining with sea views. Umbra Pool Bar offers light bites and cocktails poolside, while the stylish Vista Lounge & Terrace is ideal for aperitifs or artisanal coffee. A beach club is also set to open soon, enhancing the relaxed coastal experience.

Spa & Wellness: A Sanctuary by the Sea

The Sanctuary by the Sea Spa spans 1,800 square meters and includes both indoor and outdoor hydrotherapy areas. Facilities include hammams, saunas, a snow fountain, Turkish bath, hot and cold immersion pools, a yoga studio, and cardio lounge. Treatments by global skincare leaders such as Subtle Energies and 111Skin elevate the wellness offering. With views of both the sea and mountains, the spa provides an unrivaled sense of calm and rejuvenation.

Championship Golf with Breathtaking Views

Fairmont La Hacienda is a dream destination for golf enthusiasts. The La Hacienda Links course hugs the coastline with panoramic sea and Gibraltar views, while the Heathland course winds through valleys and plateaus with lakes and rolling greens. A modern clubhouse, driving range, and professional golf academy serve both casual players and serious competitors alike.

Family-Friendly with Sophisticated Touches

Families are warmly welcomed. A Montessori-inspired Kids Club (ages 4–9) includes natural wooden toys and creative play spaces. The Teens Club (ages 9–13) offers gaming consoles, foosball, and lounge areas. Off-site adventures such as horseback riding on the beach, dolphin-spotting yacht trips, and electric Moke car excursions offer families unforgettable shared experiences.

Events, Weddings, and Private Gatherings

Whether for a destination wedding, corporate retreat, or milestone celebration, Fairmont La Hacienda offers versatile indoor and outdoor event spaces. A grand ballroom for up to 260 guests, multiple meeting rooms, and the option to privately reserve villas and terraces make the resort ideal for hosting elegant, high-profile events in a luxurious and private setting.

Sustainable and Smart by Design

Sustainability is a core part of the resort’s DNA. The property is LEED-certified and uses intelligent kitchen waste systems, energy-saving automation, and carbon-footprint monitoring. Materials are locally sourced where possible, and menus emphasize organic and seasonal ingredients. The entire operation is aligned with modern sustainability standards while maintaining a high level of luxury.

Prime Location, Peaceful Ambience

Situated just 20 minutes from Gibraltar Airport and about an hour from Málaga, the resort enjoys a strategic location with easy international access. The surrounding area features four kilometers of natural beach, hiking trails, and scenic lookout points—including views of Morocco on clear days. Yet the resort maintains a peaceful atmosphere, far from the usual tourist hotspots.

A New Standard on the Costa del Sol

Fairmont La Hacienda Costa del Sol brings together everything discerning travelers seek: refined accommodations, gastronomic excellence, a strong wellness ethos, championship golf, and a genuine family-friendly philosophy. It offers the best of both worlds—private luxury and warm hospitality—wrapped in Andalusian soul. Whether for a romantic escape, a wellness retreat, or a luxurious family holiday, this resort is a new icon of elegance in southern Europe.
