Prouts Neck (formerly Prout's Neck, and for a while Libby's Neck), is commonly referred to by local residents simply as "Prouts". Its name comes from Timothy Prout, a Boston merchant, who lived there for 40 years from 1728. Of the many luxury hotels that were once located on Prouts (including the renowned Jocelyn and Checkley hotels), only the Black Point Inn remains.

Golf Son Gual is home to a course frequently rated the No.1 layout on the holiday island of Mallorca. Opening for play in 2007, this Thomas Himmel design combines the openness of a links-style layout with the stylish bunkering and not infrequent water hazards more typically associated with parkland courses.
Son Gual is located just a few kilometres from Palma (Mallorca). Palma's Old City shows clear influences from the city's Arab past.
