Fairmont Hotels & Resorts Highlights Global Golf Experiences
Fairmont Hotels & Resorts presents a diverse collection of golf destinations that combine championship-level design with striking natural surroundings. From the Canadian Rockies and California coastlines to the cultural landscapes of Mexico and Europe, each course reflects its environment and is complemented by Fairmont’s signature hospitality.
“Fairmont golf courses are designed as destinations in themselves,” said Justin Wood, Vice President, Golf & Retail, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts.
“Each one reflects the landscape and community it belongs to, offering players an experience that goes beyond the game.”
