Fairplay Golf Hotel & Spa

We stayed here for Christmas 2024 - was a joke , same buffet every day, modest rooms and old furniture (we had a suite deluxe) but nothing was deluxe, staff ok some nice many grumpy and we were astounded how this place got a 5 stars rating - the Christmas buffet sold as a brunch but was a simple lunch at 60€ a pop was almost identical to the breakfast buffet and only a few changes of meats (not kept hot) we felt it was a real rip off- no alcohol drinks included except soft drinks nor coffee and teas neither, we frankly had the worst experience for a Christmas of our lives - only positive was the Christmas dinner which was quite nice and the staff were really wonderful for this and the golf course looks really beautiful but we do not play golf.

A well designed ,fair and lovely course to play. Excellent condition throughout with interesting and challenging greens in great condition. Unlike many greens in Spain , not overwatered puddings but they still take spin and hold . The director of golf here obviously knows his stuff and also takes pride in his work which can be quite rare in Spanish golf. The idiosyncratic hotel is quite unusual but a lovely place to stay. There might be the odd inconvenience if it rains for example but the peace , calm and tranquillity is reward for the rare event of rain in Spain. My room was so very comfortable, extremely clean and a joy to stay in. One has to think the hotel manager knows his job as well because he has his staff well trained . Nothing , no matter how small is too much for them and the service is five star. Hard for me to pick a fault here and i can only recommend a holiday here . You wont regret a booking here .

The resort hotel is nice, with beautiful valley view, but kind of in the middle of no where. The hotel is poorly designed, with no easy access to the rooms. To get to our room we had to drag our luggage quite a few steps. We stayed in a suite, which is nice, with a beautiful terrace. However, the sliding door to the terrace was broken and could not be locked. Had to call reception about mid-night. The reception said would send someone over to fix it. No one came at all. Then the reception line was always busy.

We go to this golf course every year with around 40 players. We are always treated fantastically. Staff and the course are always first class. It's a beautiful setting and a fantastic hotel. Will be back again next year. Thank you for making us have a great day

I have to disagree with some of the previous reviews, at least in my opinion. The hotel and rooms are spotless. The room I had was spacious, very comfortable, with all the amenities one would expect and free limited mini bar. The buffet restaurant although not cheap was good. The quality of the food was good and the staff were constantly filling the buffet with fresh food. The pool bar had a great menu which was also appetising. The pool was great but would probably need more sun beds to cater for the demand. There was definitely enough space for more Sun beds. The service throughout the hotel was excellent. Staff went above and beyond to assist and accommodate the guests. This I experienced and witness myself with other guests. The hotel has spectacular views of the countryside. Unfortunately I don’t play golf so cannot comment but the golf course looked well maintained which must be difficult considering constant temperatures of 35’C. It also appeared to be popular with many golf buggies on the course. In general the hotel is comfortable and very relaxing. Would definitely return.
