Elba Palace Golf Boutique Hotel

In Antigua, Elba Palace offers an adults only stay for guests aged 16 and over, set within Fuerteventura Golf Resort with the fairways close at hand. The hotel reception doubles as the clubhouse for Fuerteventura Golf Club, so arranging green fees, club hire or lessons is part of arriving rather than a separate errand. Golf view Deluxe Doubles provide 34 square metres, a furnished balcony and a choice of king-size or twin beds. For more room between rounds, the 57 square metre golf view suites add a separate lounge and furnished terrace overlooking the course. The pool and solarium make for an easy afternoon away from the scorecard, while the sauna, Jacuzzi and steam room offer a quieter reset after a round.

Fuerteventura Golf Club is the resort’s own 18-hole, par-72 course, shaped by palm trees, water features and mature planting. Several holes run alongside water, and sea views appear across the course, but the tree-lined fairways reward controlled placement as much as distance. Before teeing off, there is a 50-bay driving range, an 800 square metre putting green and a chipping green beside the clubhouse.

St Andrews serves buffet and à la carte meals overlooking the gardens and course, with live music and two themed dinners each week. Café Hoyo 19 is well suited to a relaxed lunch, serving tapas, salads and hot and cold buffet choices with views over the fairways, sea and island landscape. Later on, the Canary Winery has more than 300 wines and over 1,000 brandies, with local cheese tastings also available. Fuerteventura Airport is around 5 miles away, roughly a 10 minute drive, and the hotel runs a courtesy bus to the beach.
