| The Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort & Club Aventura, Florida |
 
   |
The Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort & Club obliterated the courts adjacent to the hotel leaving guests with only the option of playing at the Turnberry Yacht Club. The recent reports I've been getting suggest that this is not a happy state of affairs. Though renovations have evidently done wonderful things for the hotel and spa, tennis lost out in the transformation. Until I can find out just more, I cannot recommend this for your tennis holiday.

Your Call
Here's what others have had to say about Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort & Club.
-
"The tennis facility on the main resort site has recently been renovated as well. There are four, brand new, har-tru courts, all of them well-lit at night. The resort offers daily drills (fee) and player matching service (complimentary). Also, private and group lessons (fee) are available.
I participated in the morning drills and one private lesson. The teaching/coaching was excellent! I highly recommend the resort as a whole..the golf, pool, and beach club are outstanding."—K.N., Int., July 2008
Other Recreation
Beach. Turnberry's Beach Club is physically outside the resort in Aventura, a 10-minute drive or shuttle ride away. However once there guests have access to the private club and a lovely stretch of beach. The club also has watersports equipment, a six-sided swimming pool, cabanas, a wooden deck with lounge chairs, lockers and changing rooms, a restaurant and bar.
Golf Courses. The resort has two 18-hole courses, both designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr.
North Course: Not that long but places a premium on accuracy. Par 70. Length: 6,403 yards. Details to come.
South Course: More picturesque and demanding than the North Course, with water coming into play on many of the holes. Par: 72. Length: 7,003 yards.
Spa & Fitness Center. The latest enhancement to the property is the addition of the Willow Stream Spa, which has a full menu of treatments as well as a 3,650-square-foot fitness center for workouts and classes.
