Opened in 1978, Poniente has the kind of status on the island that is afforded to the older Scottish clubs in Britain, and is a favourite of British & German golfers staying in the coastal resorts around Palma.
Its 7,032-yard, par 72 layout was created by John Harris, and combines woodland, lakes, sweeping terrain and large, quick greens. The first four holes form a gentle start but the course bares its teeth on the intriguing stretch between the 7th and 10th.
The 8th hole plays blind and steeply downhill with a ravine to the right. Place your drive on the fairway and you'll have a medium iron left to a big green surrounded by palms and offering panoramic views,
Poniente's best - number 10 - will scare you from the tee. Water and reed beds loom on the right while bunkers guard the run-off at the end of the fairway. The green at first seems unreachable, but it is possible to carry the water with a sweet strike.
This is what some of our clients thought was particularly special about this course:-
