The Fairmont Acapulco Princess Golf Club - proud host to the Tour de Las Americas- "Televisa Player's Championship" 2008.

Fairmont Acapulco Hotels: A fascinating 36-hole golf destination in MexicoLocated next to each other, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts offers two Championship golf courses in Acapulco, the Princess and the Pierre Marques Golf Courses. For your convenience, the hotel provides complimentary shuttle service to both golf courses to make your Mexico golf vacation hassle-free. Designed by Ted Robinson, the Fairmont Acapulco Princess Golf Course is a beautiful resort layout, punctuated by narrow fairways lined with coconut palms and water hazards on 12 of the 18 holes. Included in Golf Digest's Top 25 Golf Resorts, the signature hole is the 18th, a dog-leg par 4 around a large lake, leaving a second shot to the green that appears suspended in space over the unique pyramid structure of the hotel.

The Princess G.C. plays to 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. Recent improvements to the Princess in 2007, included regrassing all greens and tees with Seashore Paspalum. This fabulous playing surface makes for a most enjoyable round and offers you the opportunity to experience the best conditions that Fairmont has to offer.

With an investment of over 3 million dollars, The Fairmont Pierre Marques has finalized the last phase of an extensive renovation program, supervised by world-renowned golf designer Robert Trent Jones Jr. Improvements to the course included the installation of Seashore Paspalum grass and an extensive expansion of existing lakes and waterways. 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.
