"The Pavilion on the Links" (1880) is a short-story by Robert Louis Stevenson. It was first published in Cornhill Magazine 42-43 (Sept-Oct 1880)[1]. A revised version was included in The New Arabian Nights (1882).

The story was considered by Conan Doyle in 1890 as "the high-water mark of [Stevenson’s] genius" and "the first short story in the world’"[2]. Along with a number of other stories it was collected in a volume entitled The New Arabian Nights in 1882. This collection is seen as the starting point for the history of the English short story by Barry Menikoff [3].
