The Colony
at the Grand

Point Clear, Alabama
For more than 160 years, the shores of Fairhope, Alabama has been home to the Grand Hotel. It is here people have come to be married, celebrate life’s milestones, and relax for a week, weekend, or just a couple of days. Just because it’s been there doesn’t mean it shouldn’t change–just a little. Sensitive development to historic properties is important to keep them fresh, exciting, vibrant, and viable for future generations.

LUXURIOUSLY APPOINTED

In 2004 Daniel approached the Retirement Systems of Alabama, owner of the historic hotel, with a masterplan for the development of land contiguous to the Grand Hotel and its two golf courses at the Lakewood Club (part of the famed Robert Trent Jones Trail). Residential offerings at Lakewood date back to 1947 and gave the Daniel team a blueprint for the Colony. In 2007, Daniel delivered its first offering, Bayview II, which featured 56 luxury condominium residences and rooftop amenities offering 20-mile views over Mobile Bay. Daniel followed with a new state-of-the-art lake amenity campus at the Colony featuring 3 new pools, a fitness and racquet center, restaurant and bistro, and beach areas.

  • Located adjacent to the Grand Hotel in Fairhope, Alabama at the heart of Mobile Bay’s Eastern Shore.
  • Developed with the Retirement System of Alabama (RSA) to complement the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail.
