The results are not surprising. However looking forward to 2008, the big question is which courses will make next years top 10, and which will drop from the current list.
A course which will almost certainly be included is Son Quint - As part of the Arabella Golf Complex this course arrives with a superb pedigree.
Another course which should make the top 10 is Son Gual - undoubtedly an award winning course. It's barrier to entry into our top 10 will only be the green fee price, currently 150€ per person as the statistics above are only valid once a certain number of players have left their feedback. We doubt that Son Gual will reach this 'critical' number of responses in 2008.
Poniente, Andratx and Bendinat as the bottom 3 courses are in danger of relegation. In truth none of these courses should exit the top 10. Poniente has the best layout on the island, but lacks investment in keys areas. The clubhouse needs refurbishment, the car park needs tarmac, and the course condition is not always as good as you would expect. Andratx is a long and challenging course, which some people find frustrating to play, and therefore scores low for 'overall enjoyment'. The fact that this course appeals mainly to Germans can sometimes leave British guests feeling ostracised. Finally Bendinat. This is undoubtedly a superb course, and one of the most popular on the island, however if you are not accurate off the tee you will find it frustrating.
In order to provide more specific feedback our colleagues at www.SimplyMallorcaGolf.com are asking their clients 3 questions this year. In summary, overall enjoyment, course quality, and value for money. As soon as they have received a reasonable number of responses we will publish the results here.
