Golf

The Fairmont Acapulco Princess Golf Course
Designed by Ted Robinson, this pleasant layout is punctuated by narrow fairways, lined by coconut palms and water hazards on 12 of the 18 holes. Included in Golf Digest's Top 25 Golf Resorts, the Princess Course's featured hole is the 18th, a dog-leg par 4 around a large lake, leaving a second shot that appears suspended in space over the unique pyramid structure of the hotel. The course plays to just under 6400 yards from the Championship tees, the challenge is real enough as half of the holes have water hazards on one side, and out of bounds on the other! 'Sneaky tough' is an apt description to the challenge offered by this gem of a course.

The Fairmont Pierre Marques Golf Course
With an investment of over 3 million dollars, The Fairmont Pierre Marques Golf Course has finalized the last phase of an extensive renovation program, supervised by world-renowned golf designer Robert Trent Jones Jr.

Improvements to the course include: the installation of Seashore Paspalum grass, the expansion and contouring of lakes, and the installation of a world-class, double ended practice facility. This new design reflects the Jones' legacy and offers players a renewed challenge steps away from the Pacific Ocean.

Originally designed by Percy Clifford, the course was remodeled by Robert Trent Jones Sr. for the 1982 World Cup Championship. With the redesign of 65 sand bunkers, and additional 300 yards in length, Jones placed a premium on accuracy from the tee, and precise shots into the well guarded greens. As testament to the challenge created, the winning individual score for the tournament was just 3 under par.

Yuca Live Salsa Club

This is the definitive club for Salsa lovers, a musical hot spot located under the hotel's pyramid with a mystical prehispanic ambiance contrasting with the most advanced lighting and special effects. The very lively music is provided by swinging bands from Havana, Cuba that change every few months.

Movies

Every evening the hotel offers complimentary "movies under the stars" in a tranquil outdoor setting next to the main pool. Popular movies are shown on a large screen while guests relax on lounge chairs.

Kids' Club

  • From late August through early December every year, we liberate baby turtles raised in our own turtle farm. Each child has the opportunity to free a turtle, receiving a Diploma and our special thanks for helping us to preserve the marine turtles.
