Son Gual Golf Mallorca

Son Gual Golf Mallorca brings together a golf course, practice facilities, an academy, a pro shop and a restaurant. For a golfer visiting Mallorca, it offers several ways to shape a day at the club, whether the focus is on the course or on spending time practising. Events are also part of its offering.

The club is in the municipality of Manacor and is close to Palma. These are the location references to bear in mind when fitting Son Gual into a stay on the island.

A Thomas Himmel design

Thomas Himmel designed the course, which was completed in October 2007 around the old Palace. The building is a distinctive reference point in the story of the project: the course was developed around it rather than being described independently of its setting.

For visitors interested in course architecture, the designer and completion date provide a starting point for getting to know Son Gual. The October 2007 date refers to the completion of the course.

The combination of the golf layout and the old Palace gives the club a particular identity to keep in mind when planning a visit to Mallorca.

Practice and the golf academy

There is more to the golf offering than the course itself. Son Gual has practice facilities and a golf academy, so a visit can also be planned with learning or practice in mind.

The academy has its own page in this guide. It is worth considering alongside the course when deciding which part of the club is most relevant to your visit, rather than treating the round as the only reason to come.

Beyond the golf

A pro shop and restaurant form part of the club's services. Together with the practice facilities and academy, they broaden the scope of a day here without requiring a change of venue. The shop, restaurant and events offering each have a separate guide page.

When planning your time, consider which elements you want to include: the course, practice, the academy or the accompanying services. Son Gual's appeal lies in that combination, with the Thomas Himmel design around the old Palace at the centre of its golf identity.
