Son Vida

Son Vida is one of the most exclusive villa resorts in the southwest of the island of Mallorca. The origin of the name is due to the Vida family. Mateu Vida acquired the land in 1518 and devoted himself to agriculture. As early as 1300, King Jaume I built a castle here which later became the 5 star hotel Castillo Son Vida. Surrounded by 3 tournament golf courses and within easy reach of the center of the island's capital, Palma, this location is almost unrivaled. Two 5 star hotels together with the Son Vida golf course, prestigious villas and lush and manicured green areas give Son Vida a very special charm. The Son Vida golf course is the oldest of the Arabella Golf Mallorca group and offers great views over the city. It is a legend among players throughout Europe and has been played by world-class golf professionals. In addition, few courses can boast of having hosted two European Tour events (1990 & 1994). Golf Son Quint is the youngest course on the island and was inaugurated in 2007. Right next to it is also the "Son Quint Executive Course", the only 9-hole PAR 3 course in the Balearics. Also the Golf Son Muntaner where in 2016 a holistic change and renewal of the green area was carried out is in any case worth a visit.
Son Vida is located in the hills west of the center of Palma. It takes only 10 minutes by car to get to the city center. Despite this short distance, there is little of the hustle and bustle of Palma. At many places in this area you have a fantastic view over the city of Palma and its bay. The especially well-kept golf courses and the imposing villas attract not only the numerous golfers but also royal visitors and celebrities.
