Fairmont Royal Palm Golf & Country Club

Designed by Cabell B Robinson, the man responsible for many of Continental Europe’s best layouts, Fairmont Golf & Country Club offers preferred access to resort guests and is one of Morocco’s top ranked courses.

Extending to over 7,200 yards from the back tees, Fairmont Golf & Country Club can certainly offer a stiff test even to the best golfers, and with Bermuda fairways and tees, as well as A4 bent grass greens, the course stands out from the pack in terms of conditioning, making a round on Fairmont Golf & Country Club most enjoyable.

While more than three quarters of a million square metres of earth was moved during construction, the course appears very natural to the naked eye, blending seamlessly into the landscape which is awash with colour. A huge variety of shrubs, flowers and trees bloom at different times of the year all over the course, and with holes routed around 5 large lakes, it is one of the country’s most picturesque layouts.

Wide fairways allow for some margin for error from the tee which allows a great range of golfers to enjoy the course. Stray too far from the fairway though and you’ll find your way into great swathes of sand in the form of waste bunkers. Speaking of bunkers, this is one of the most eye catching features of the course and with countless years of experience, Robinson has the traps well placed, forcing the golfer to carefully consider their shot selection throughout the course.

STATISTICS

Par: 72

Designed by: Cabell B Robinson

Opened for play: 2013

TEES

Black: 7,226 yards

Yellow: 6,146 yards

Signature Hole – No. 3: Par 4, 357 yards (Black Tees)

While there are plenty of excellent holes at Fairmont Golf & Country Club, the short, and driveable for some par 4 3rd is a classic risk vs. reward hole. Doglegging right from tee to green, longer hitters will surely be tempted to take the aggressive line over the corner in an attempt to drive the green and bag a birdie while more modest hitters play for position in the fairway.

With water the whole way down the right of the hole, and desert scrub to the left, neither option is an easy proposition and will require well struck shots in order to escape without losing shots to the course.

Practice Facilities

Short game practice facilities include 2 putting greens and a dedicated chipping and pitching green featuring advanced equipment which can be used for technical analysis of your technique. The Golf Academy allows players to warm up before their round or even get a lesson and with a digital coaching studio featuring video analysis, launch monitors and swing analysis equipment, tuition is of the highest standard.

Other Information

Golf buggies and trolleys are both available for hire and come highly recommended with the weather conditions in mind. Temperatures can soar in Morocco so conserving energy during your time on the course is a must.

Services include golf shoe care and with caddies on hand, you can always rely on some local knowledge to safely navigate your way around the course.

A fully stocked proshop allows you to take to the course with everything you may require during your round.

One of the best hotels we have stayed in. Palatial bedroom with seating area,covered logia and sun beds beyond overlooking the garden, changing/ storage area and large bathroom with separate bath / shower. Excellent food with choice of Moroccan or international restaurants. Staff provided sandwich bags to enable us to take food out to eat on the golf course. All staff very friendly and helpful. Shuttle bus every two hours to Marrakesh centre booked the day before and taking about half an hour. We felt very safe.

Impressive course with good practice facilities. A bit of a problem on arrival, with the pro shop showing we had a 1310 tee time whereas our voucher stated 1130. Following a bit of negotiation we eventually managed to get away on time (1130).

The golf course was very busy...we had no choice but to play in a four ball with a pair we had never met...fortunately we all played to same standard and got on well..! Golf staff and Golf facilities were excellent. However the same cannot be said for the restaurant and bar.....we found out after playing you have to reserve an outside shaded table if you want food..this came as a surprise to all of us including our playing partners who were residents on site. We also found out you are not allowed to eat in side near the bar area ......Bar and restaurant staff were not very friendly...very disappointing ...would not recommend this course if you normally have a drink and food after the golf as we normally do....

We played four rounds, two were fast, one was going slowly when the starter arrived and took us around a slow group and one was very slow. Fairways were wide with light rough. Greens were very fast, well watered and proved difficult. Several par threes required accuracy due to lakes and bunkers. Weather high teens to low 20s and sunny at mid day but very cold early in the morning.
