Capdepera Golf Course

The natural beauty and incomparable tranquillity of its surroundings characterise the privileged location of Capdepera Golf, one of the most beautiful courses on the island that captivates golfers at first sight.

Designed by the North American architect Dan Maples, Capdepera Golf was inaugurated in 1989. It offers 18 holes, par 72 and a very balanced distribution that requires precise play. Expert golfers as well as beginners find their individual challenge on this course.

Capdepera Golf stands out for its spacious greens, the charming combination of long, wide fairways with other narrower ones, and its six lakes. Its first holes are comparatively flat, with the odd dogleg surrounded by water to make the game more interesting. The last 6, more intricate holes, are hidden among the mountains of Arta. Particularly attractive is hole 15, par 3, which apart from having given more than 1 player the satisfaction of getting a birdie, offers incredible views of the valley and the Mediterranean sea.

Capdepera Golf has the splendid and renowned Roca Viva restaurant, famous for its exquisite cuisine and friendly service. Located on the edge of the 18th green, it invites golfers to rest after a successful game, and enjoy the company of other players.

Pro Shop facilities of Capdepera Golf are located on the ground floor of the club house. The Pro Shop offers everything that you need, including reservations, professional golf classes and information on any aspect of the course.

Canyamel Golf Course

When Pepe Gancedo surveyed the beautiful countryside around Canyamel, he knew that he needed to spoil Mallorca as little as possible when designing the course.

As a result, this course has been developed taking into account many of the existing features. The little house on the 9th hole was preserved as were the typical dry stone walls on the 7th, 13th, 14th and 15th, where they come into play across and adjacent to the fairways.

This is a course of two contrasting halves. The first nine holes are quite difficult, with Hole 5 offering a particularly excellent view of Menorca. The second nine holes are longer and flatter than the first, but make for an excellent and challenging round of golf.

The European PGA visited the course and proposed a series of modifications which have now been carried out. The PGA have classified Canyamel Golf Course as an ideal course for playing an Open event.

Among its facilities Canyamel Golf offers a double driving range for 40 people, 2 putting greens, a pitching green and a practice bunker. In addition to this, at the Club House there is a restaurant, showers and lockers and a lounge with video.
