Alcaidesa, the coastal retreat known for its natural beauty and exclusivity, is stepping into the spotlight with the grand opening of Fairmont La Hacienda Costa del Sol. As Fairmont’s first luxury resort in Spain, this five-star destination represents a €130 million investment and a major milestone for the region. With world-class hospitality, championship golf, and refined leisure experiences, its arrival further enhances Alcaidesa’s reputation as one of the most desirable places to live and invest on the Costa del Sol.
A New Standard of Luxury
Set in the picturesque municipality of San Roque, near Sotogrande, Fairmont La Hacienda elegantly combines contemporary elegance with traditional Andalucian charm. The resort offers 213 beautifully designed rooms and suites, along with 47 exclusive private villas. Inspired by the region’s iconic whitewashed villages, these residences feature spacious terraces, private pools, and breathtaking views of the Mediterranean. Designed with both short-term visitors and long-term residents in mind, the resort offers an unparalleled experience of comfort and sophistication.
Beyond its striking architecture, the hotel offers an extensive selection of world-class amenities. The 1,800 m² spa and wellness centre provides a haven of relaxation, featuring hydrotherapy pools, a hammam, and a selection of holistic treatments designed to rejuvenate the mind and body. Guests can also enjoy a state-of-the-art fitness centre, ensuring that wellness remains a key part of the experience.
Gastronomy is another standout feature. The resort is home to five distinct dining venues, including a restaurant led by two-Michelin-starred chef Benito Gómez, renowned for his innovative approach to Andalucian cuisine. From fine dining to more relaxed beachfront options, the hotel’s culinary offerings cater to a range of tastes while celebrating the flavours of the region.
For golf enthusiasts, Fairmont La Hacienda offers direct access to two championship courses, including the award-winning La Hacienda Links Golf, one of Spain’s premier golfing destinations. With its sweeping coastal fairways and stunning sea views, it ranks among the finest courses in Europe, further positioning Alcaidesa as a golfer’s paradise.
Raising Alcaidesa’s Prestige
While Alcaidesa has long been admired for its peaceful beaches, lush green landscapes, and breathtaking sea views, the opening of Fairmont La Hacienda elevates its profile. The arrival of a globally recognised luxury hospitality brand confirms what those familiar with the area have always known—this is a destination of remarkable beauty and exclusivity.
Unlike the livelier hubs of Marbella and Puerto Banús, Alcaidesa offers a more tranquil environment. Its superb beaches and protected nature reserves create a rare sense of serenity along the Costa del Sol. At the same time, its location ensures both privacy and convenience. Just a short drive from Sotogrande—one of Europe’s most prestigious residential and yachting communities—Alcaidesa benefits from proximity to world-class golf courses, polo fields, and an exclusive marina, making it an appealing choice for those seeking a sophisticated yet peaceful lifestyle.
With Gibraltar Airport only 20 minutes away and Marbella and Puerto Banús—renowned for their luxury shopping, fine dining, and vibrant nightlife—easily reached in under an hour, Alcaidesa strikes an enviable balance between seclusion and accessibility. This distinctive blend has made it increasingly attractive to international buyers in search of a high-end residential retreat.
The presence of Fairmont La Hacienda is expected to enhance not only the resort’s immediate surroundings but also Alcaidesa’s broader appeal as a luxury destination. Synonymous with elegance and excellence, the Fairmont brand will attract discerning visitors and further elevate the desirability of this exceptional coastal enclave.
A Prime Opportunity for Investors and Homeowners
As Alcaidesa continues to gain international recognition, demand for high-quality homes in the area is expected to rise. This presents an exciting opportunity for investors and homeowners alike.
What sets Alcaidesa apart is its commitment to preserving a sense of space, exclusivity, and natural beauty, all while offering access to world-class amenities. It is a destination that appeals to those seeking a sophisticated yet relaxed lifestyle, making it an excellent choice for both permanent residents and those looking for a second home.
With additional luxury projects on the horizon—including a planned high-end hotel in nearby Torrecarbonera—the region is evolving rapidly. Those who invest now are likely to see strong appreciation in property values as Alcaidesa cements its status as a premier coastal destination.
