Tell me about The Grand in Fairhope, AL.

Went for our anniversary a couple years ago. 2 nights is more than enough time to do everything there & downtown Fairhope.

Did a kids free weekend a year or two ago. Nice place, decent in house restaurants, nice bar. Downtown fairhope isn’t far away and that area is nice. But, like other poster said 2 days is plenty. We did 3 days and was a little bored toward the end of the stay.

I've always enjoyed going, but I just got back from a trip, and the hotel is still under renovation. All the restaurants are closed except the lounge and poolside grill (where they currently host most of their meals). If you want the true experience, I would wait until construction is finished.

I go at least twice a year. It has been under construction for a while, but I think it is phasing out. We usually stay in the spa building and that had been redone when we were there for Easter. I think my wife just booked another trip there today for Labor Day weekend and the main building is good to go now.

It's absolutely worth the get-a-way. Especially if you have kids. There is a little beach and the pool area is awesome. They have a nice fishing pier (with cane poles and shrimp ready to go), a bike trail and free bikes, kayaks, small sail boats, and tons of activities.

Off the resort, downtown Fairhope is nice and quaint. There is good shopping and decent eating. It's a sleepy town, so don't expect to be partying hard.

Never been, but that seems like a damn good rate

Yeah tons of history at the grand
