A Mediterranean golfing experience and a first-class golf hotel right in the middle – this is what Majorca’s Arabella Golf Son Vida promises. The golf course and the hotel lie nestled between the hills of the elegant villa quarter of Son Vida and Palma de Mallorca, picturesquely bordered by almond trees, palms and four small lakes. An unusual feature of this golf course is its fast greens, which are otherwise rare in Europe and require especially sensitive handling with the putter. The oldest golf course on Majorca, which also enjoys the richest tradition, was redesigned in 2001 by the renowned golf course designer Kurt Rossknecht.
