T Golf Calvià (formerly known as Golf de Poniente) is home to a highly regarded golf course, which now contends with the likes of Son Gual for top billing in Mallorca. This tree-lined parkland layout will test most facets of your game, offering a round with plenty of enjoyable golfing challenges.
The course dates back to 1978 when English course designer Commander John Harris crafted what was then known as Golf de Poniente. Many regarded it a masterpiece and one of Harris's most inspired designs. Today T Golf Calvià is one of the oldest, highest rated and most popular courses on the Balearic island of Mallorca.
A two-year renovation (2020/21) has returned the layout to its original splendor, with good-width fairways and large greens making for a great challenge for any level of golfer. The holes run through beautiful rolling hills, with majestic pines, palms and olive trees, fifteen lakes and ponds, and numerous bunkers lining the way. For nature lovers, the flora and fauna on the course make it a real Mediterranean treat.
Pick of the holes: of special note are the views from the par-4 8th and 16th holes which are worth a visit alone and give the player an appreciation for the rugged beauty of this course and its natural surrounds.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Maximum handicap: men 28; women 34.
Contact club for full details, discounts, packages, etc. [Last updated: 2022].

French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
