Frequently Asked Questions

When's the best time to play Golf de Son Vida without battling the heat or crowds?

We always recommend aiming for spring (April-May) or autumn (September-October) to truly enjoy Son Vida. You'll find ideal temperatures for walking the course and fewer holidaymakers, making for a more relaxed round. Avoid the scorching summer months if you can, as it gets uncomfortably hot and the course can feel a bit crowded.

How challenging is Golf de Son Vida for a mid-handicapper, and what's its signature style?

Son Vida offers a fair test, especially if you're not used to its tighter, tree-lined fairways and elevation changes. It's not brutally long, but accuracy off the tee is key to scoring well here. Expect classic resort golf with some genuinely memorable holes, particularly those with views over Palma.

What should I expect to pay for a round at Golf de Son Vida, and is it worth the price?

Green fees at Son Vida are on the higher side for Mallorca, typically ranging from €120-€180 depending on the season and time of day. While it's an investment, you're paying for a well-maintained course, excellent service, and a convenient location close to Palma. We think it offers good value for a premium resort experience.

Are there any specific holes or features at Golf de Son Vida that really stand out?

Absolutely, the 18th hole is iconic - a par 5 that finishes right in front of the clubhouse, often with an audience. We also love the panoramic views you get from several elevated tees, especially on the back nine, looking out towards Palma Bay. It's a classic Mediterranean layout that truly shines.

What's the best way to get to Golf de Son Vida, and do I need a buggy?

Son Vida is super easy to reach, just a short drive from Palma city center or the airport - a taxi or rental car is your best bet. While it's walkable, we recommend taking a buggy, especially in warmer months, as there are some significant elevation changes between holes. It'll save your legs and keep your round enjoyable.
