Sports hotel in focus: Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa

Hyatt Hotels Corporation has announced the opening of the Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa – the first Grand Hyatt hotel to open in Spain and the fourth operating under the luxury brand in Europe. 

To capitalise on the hotel’s prime position within the prestigious La Manga Club Resort in Murcia, southeast Spain, the property has undergone extensive refurbishment. As well as golf and a spa, the hotel’s extensive world-class sports facilities offer a variety of activities for outdoor enthusiasts.

“Every Grand Hyatt hotel is carefully designed as a destination within a destination and the newly opened Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa sets the bar high when it comes to delivering a luxury travel experience with an abundance of options for our discerning guests,” said Ángel Holgado, general manager at Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa. “We’re very proud of our new property, and confident that its meticulous balance of inventive cuisine, elevated service, world-class facilities and holistic pampering will prove a winning combination for anyone seeking out the ultimate place to escape to along this spectacular stretch of Mediterranean coastline.”

Rooms and suites

The hotel has 192 guest rooms, including seven signature suites, which showcase the hotel’s idyllic location overlooking the rolling hills of Calblanque natural park and the Mediterranean Sea. Each room features the latest amenities, colours inspired by the surrounding nature and spa-inspired marble bathrooms.

Wellness centre

At the heart of the hotel transformation is the new 18,298sqft wellness centre, which ensures guests have every opportunity to disconnect and relax while taking full advantage of their peaceful surroundings. The Arabian-inspired spa provides a calming space for guests to unwind and offers luxurious treatments and beauty therapies using high-end Natura Bissé skincare products across six treatment rooms. Facilities include a hydrotherapy pool, an adults-only infinity pool with views across the golf course towards the coast, an outdoor family pool and fitness centre.
