Son Quint Golf Course - Arabella Golf Son Quint

Son Quint has been designed by Garden & Golf, and according to Son Vida and Son Muntaner's former course manager, James Arnold, it falls between the two existing courses in length (6,780 yards) and difficulty. It is a gentler test than Son Muntaner and offers splendid views over the bay of Palma.

A few kilometres from Palma, the capital of the island, you will find the three courses that comprise Arabella Golf in Mallorca: the traditional and legendary Son Vida, the spectacular and magnificent Son Muntaner, and the new course with sea-views, Son Quint, which opened in September 2007.

Ramon Espinosa of "Garden & Golf" designed the 18 hole course with two big lakes, extends over 6200 metres of spectacular Mallorcan countryside, through pine and ancient olive trees. Thanks to its elevated position Son Quint has an amazing view of the Palma area, and the sparkling sea of the bay of Palma.

The well-placed bunkers will challenge even experienced golfers, and four different tee-box positions enable a variety of play.

The grass at Son Quint is a dense and an intensely green colour, even in the high summer temperatures, which is due to Ramon Espinosa's choice of the fine "Princess" type of grass.

After an exceptional round of golf here why not return to the clubhouse with its superb facilities, or even take a refreshing dip in the pool!

Carlo Knauss, ex-federal golf trainer of Germany, sports commentator of PPV Premiere and consultant for the new Son Quint golf course, comments,

    "Son Quint will dazzle players looking for variety and something a little special. For example at hole 8, the highest point on the course, you tee-off facing directly towards Palma Cathedral."
