Located in the north of Mallorca about 1 hour from Palma, Golf Pollensa is a beautiful course, set in a typical rural landscape. We must point out right away though, that this is only a 9 hole course, albeit a good one.

Opened in 1986 Golf Pollensa was originally designed by Jose Gancedo, with enhancements and redsign in 2000 by Michael Pinner of the Nicklaus golf design group. The 9 holes start from the course’s highest point, where the clubhouse is also located. Gradually descending to the valley below, the course is very scenic and the layout works in harmony with the natural surroundings. Although very picturesque, the fact remains that Golf Pollensa only has 9 holes. However, the green fees include playing the 9 twice, to achieve an 18 hole round.

Being situated in the countryside just outside the lovely historic town of Pollensa. The resorts of Alcudia and Port Pollensa are only about 15 minutes away. Given that Mallorca’s best golf course of Alcanada, is also only about 15 minutes away, there is the opportunity to combine a stay in this part of the island and playing both courses. However, as these are the only 2 courses in this northern part of the island, consideration should be given to travel distance to other courses.

Golf Pollensa’s clubhouse sits in an elevated location overlooking the course. Large terraces and a swimming pool enhance the outside areas, inside the clubhouse is a charming bar and restaurant.

Do I Need a Buggy?

The course has some significant elevation changes at the start and end of the round, otherwise the remaining holes are gently undulating. A buggy is recommended.
