Santa Ponsa is the most impressive golfing complex on the island of Mallorca, with three different courses that cater for every demand. Combined with the proximity to the towns of Santa Ponsa and Magalluf, and the capital, Palma, and its international airport, the club is an essential part of any golfing holiday in the area.
Huge expanses of water punctuate Golf Santa Ponsa I, the club's premier layout. The resort-style track would be at home in a Florida development, with lush green fairways and perfect white sand bordering the ever-present aquatic obstacles. The par-72 course will favour the long-hitters, but those who are consistently accurate will reap the rewards by avoiding trouble. Santa Ponsa's number one course is often chosen to host prominent regional events, and is a sure-fire hit for traveling golfers.
Golf Santa Ponsa II is a tale of two halves. Making your score in the opening two thirds is essential, as the fairways are forgiving and birdie chances are frequent. However, the closing stretch is a test of nerve, as the final 5 holes wind around an enormous lake that repeatedly threatens the fairways and greens.
For the younger ones and beginners, the complex also has a nine-hole academy course known as Golf Santa Ponsa III, which is a great learning ground for picking up the game.
