Arabella Golf

What Arabella Golf does

Arabella Golf Mallorca, legally Son Vida Golf, S.L.U., is a private Spanish golf-course operator headquartered in Palma de Mallorca that runs a four-course portfolio: Golf Son Muntaner (a championship venue that hosted DP World Tour and LET events in 2022–2023 and features Toptracer Range and autonomous mowing technology), Golf Son Vida (the island's first course, opened 1964, twice European Tour host), Golf Quint (the youngest course), and Palma Pitch & Putt (the island's only official Pitch & Putt). All four courses sit within the European Tour Destinations network.

The company monetizes across five primary streams: per-play green fees (with mandatory €2–€3/day golf insurance for non-federated players), annual memberships offering priority tee times plus 20% restaurant and pro-shop discounts, on-site F&B (Na Capitana, Restaurant Son Vida, Restaurant Son Quint), corporate and celebration event hosting (weddings for 50–120 guests, communions, meetings), and pro-shop retail. Tee times are booked through the golfmanager.com platform, with a multi-language site (ES/EN/DE/FR) targeting European golf tourists, and distribution is layered with direct sales, a membership sales team, and channel partnerships with three luxury hotels—Sheraton Mallorca Arabella Golf Hotel (Marriott), Castillo Hotel Son Vida, and The St. Regis Mardavall Mallorca Resort.

The business is privately held within the broader Arabella Hospitality network, with no disclosed external investors or funding rounds, and operates a hybrid DTC/sales-led go-to-market. Beyond golf, the company publishes a semi-annual magazine (26 issues to date), runs the '12 Bajo Par' social initiative (€24,200 raised in 2025 across twelve Mallorcan associations), and holds GEO, EMAS, and 100% renewable energy certifications alongside consecutive 59club service-excellence awards.
