Golf Son Muntaner is a course designed to exceed your expectations. An extraordinary design, greens that propose continuous challenges and a careful maintenance to the detail make playing this course as an obligation for the golfers that visit our island. Son Muntaner is one of three 18-hole layouts at the Arabella Golf and Spa Resort in Palma, Mallorca. Son Vida is the senior of the three courses, constructed by Fred Hawtree in 1964, followed by Son Muntaner in 2001. Finally the Ramón Espinosa-designed Son Quint was opened in 2007.
The course measures a whopping 7,000 yards from the back markers, with a par of 72. Surprisingly lush for a Mediterranean layout, it is routed over rolling terrain in two loops of nine, with ponds coming into play at several of the holes on the front nine. Stone dykes have been incorporated into the design (the par four 10th features a delightful ha-ha wall) and many of the greens are pleasantly hourglass-shaped.
