Son Termens Golf Course

View of Clubhouse at Son Termens

Despite being one of Mallorca's newest layouts, the course at Golf Son Termens is known for its excellent condition and idyllic hillside location - offering stunning views from vantage points along the back nine.

Son Termens is an appealing golf course set amid idyllic natural surroundings.

The only building you can see while you're out on the course is the attractive ochre Mallorcan style clubhouse, and the steady rise in the course enables you to experience stunning views across the landscape from vantage points along the back nine.

The course is in an excellent location, between the village of S'Esglaieta and the Soller Road, 10km north of Palma on the way to Valldemossa. Even the drive here is a relief from the busy motorway that circles Palma.

The course was designed by the Harris group, and Jose Rodriguez and opened as recently as 1998 - so is one of Mallorca's newest courses. Despite its tender age, Son Termens is already renowned for its quick, smooth greens and its magnificent condition. It's rare to find a new course built to a par of 70, but at Son Termens the designers have got it exactly right.

Birdie opportunities abound, and it's enjoyable to play a well kept course that offers a chance to score well. The par-4 1st can be driven by the long hitter, while the course's two par 5s, the 5th and 6th, are reachable by the better player in two.

But there are some demanding holes too. The 4th and 10th in particular are two punishing par 4's, played uphill to raised greens surrounded by bunkers. Both require good tee-shots if you're to reach the greens in two.

The most interesting hole at Son Termens is the par-4 2nd. A blind tee shot to a narrow fairway requires just an iron, leaving a 100-yard pitch to a green protected by water to the front and right, while a huge bunker awaits behind for the nervy golfer who hits his approach just a little too hard.

Well maintained, greens excellent. Beautiful setting with stunning views over Palma. Only a few miles out of town but really quiet and peaceful. Would certainly recommend a buggy! Sep 07.
The greens were in great condition and the course was pretty and challenging. It was not too busy which meant we were not rushing to keep up with play which was more relaxing. My clients would rather play this course twice than play the other we played. Sep 07.
Beautifully laid out, well established and stunning views. Make sure you hire a buggy though. Sep 07.
Son Termens was great. I would recommend it to everyone. Sep 07.
