Inaugurated in 2007 and designed by Ramón Espinosa and Kurt Rossknecht, Golf Son Quint is now one of Mallorca’s top rated golf courses. This parkland course with undulating fairways flanked by old pine and olive trees along with well- designed greens, provides a challenging test for all standards of golfers. From the 2nd and 13th greens 8th,15th & 17th tees along with the 9th fairway you will enjoy spectacular views over the Bay of Palma.

Son Muntaner was designed in 2000 by Kurt Rossknecht. It is a course that offers well maintained fairways and large greens and is home to Mallorca’s oldest olive tree which can be seen on the 15th hole and is 1000 years old! Situated on the outskirts of Palma this championship course is considered to be one of the most beautiful courses on the island. The course covers rolling terrain in two loops of nine with water coming into play on several holes to keep the accuracy in check.. A lovely course to play during our week.

Take time out and visit the Zen, Spa & Wellness area and treat yourself to a health and beauty treatment from the extensive range on offer and relax the day away.

We advise you to use a light golf bag when packing your clubs. We suggest you wrap a towel round the neck of the clubs to protect them and stop them rattling around whilst in transit. It is also important to then place the bag and clubs in an outer carrying bag, which can be purchased from any good golf shop.
Clients will most probably find that their golf clubs are covered on their household insurance policy. Most policies cover a single item such as golf clubs for a period out of the country. However, clients should make very sure that they do have cover and purchase the necessary insurance that includes cover for golf clubs and bag.
Most golf clubs have these items available for hire; however this is not always the case, so clients would be advised to check with us beforehand if they have any specific requireme

We suggest a Group Collection to cover transfer drivers, and hotel staff of €25.00 per person. Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate amount.
