Elba Palace Golf is now marketed as Elba Palace Golf Boutique Hotel, and it is important to know upfront that it has become an adults-only property welcoming guests aged 16 and over. This is a significant change from its earlier positioning, so families should look elsewhere in Costa Antigua, while couples and golfers gain a genuinely upmarket retreat.
A member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, IAGTO and the PGA, this Canarian-style property sits within Fuerteventura’s first 18-hole golf course. Here is the full picture.
Its Small Luxury Hotels of the World membership signals a genuinely elevated standard, rare for a golf hotel in this part of the Canaries. Canarian architecture, wooden balconies and inner patios with palm trees give it a distinctive character compared with the larger resort hotels nearby.
The adults-only policy, combined with the golf course setting, makes it a quiet, focused retreat for couples and golfing groups rather than a family beach base.
The hotel offers 51 luxurious rooms and 10 elegant suites, all spacious and decorated in a classic contemporary style. Most rooms include a private terrace or balcony with views over the golf course and, in many cases, the sea beyond.
A pool with solarium sits at the heart of the hotel, alongside a fully equipped gym and a relaxation area featuring a sauna, jacuzzi and steam room. An on-site spa offers massage treatments for guests wanting to unwind after a round of golf.
Three on-site restaurants cover breakfast, lunch and dinner with a mix of light fare and international cuisine, alongside a piano bar with live music and 24-hour room service. The tasteful decor and authorial cuisine at the St Andrews restaurant, paired with a strong wine list, set the tone for the hotel’s more refined positioning.
The hotel sits within the Fuerteventura Golf Club development, on the island’s first 18-hole course. Facilities include a 50-bay driving range, a large putting and chipping green, and professional coaching from qualified instructors, making it a genuine destination for golfers wanting to improve as well as play.
A daily programme of yoga, tai chi, fitness, aquagym and Pilates sessions runs alongside the golf facilities, giving non-golfing guests plenty to do. An on-site shop stocks Fuerteventura aloe vera products and fashion accessories for those wanting a souvenir.
This is exclusively an adults-only (16+) hotel, making it unsuitable for families with younger children. It suits couples, golfing groups and anyone wanting a quieter, more refined base than the island’s larger family resorts, with the Small Luxury Hotels of the World standard reflected throughout.
The hotel sits within the Fuerteventura Golf Club development in Costa Antigua, in the municipality of Antigua, placed directly within the first 18-hole golf course on the island.

Elba Palace Golf Boutique Hotel suits golfing couples and adult groups wanting a genuinely upmarket, quiet retreat, reflected in its Small Luxury Hotels of the World membership. Remember this is strictly adults-only, so families with children under 16 must choose a different property.
Book golf and spa packages together where available, and confirm the minimum age policy with your tour operator if travelling as part of a mixed-age group, since the 16+ rule applies to all guests without exception.
Mornings on the driving range or the course itself suit most guests here, with professional coaching available for those wanting to sharpen their game. Afternoons often mean the spa’s sauna, jacuzzi and steam room, or simply the pool and solarium.
Evenings call for the St Andrews restaurant’s refined dining, paired with its strong wine list, or a nightcap at the piano bar.
Antigua Village, a traditional Fuerteventura settlement with a historic windmill and craft workshops, makes a worthwhile half-day trip. Caleta de Fuste’s beach and shopping centre are also within easy reach for guests wanting a change of pace from the golf-focused hotel.
Guests focused on golf will find everything they need within the Fuerteventura Golf Club development itself. For those wanting to explore further, a hire car makes Antigua Village, Puerto del Rosario and the island’s coastline all comfortably reachable.
