Son Antem West Golf Course was designed by Francisco López Segalés and opened in September 2001, six years after its sister course, Son Antem East. Set against the backdrop of the Randa mountain, it's the tougher and more championship-focused of the resort's two 18-hole layouts.

The par-72 course plays through native woodland and gently sloping open countryside, with tight fairways and undulating greens demanding more precision than the East course asks for. Three lakes come into play across five holes, and the par-4 6th stands out as the test to beat: a dogleg left that calls for an accurate second shot over an undulating approach. Wildlife including hawks, grouse and rabbits is a regular sight across the grounds.

Facilities include a driving range, golf academy, locker rooms and a putting green. Book your round at the more demanding half of the Son Antem resort, a genuine championship test close to Palma airport.
