EL ROMPIDO GOLF CLUB SA

What EL ROMPIDO GOLF CLUB SA does

EL ROMPIDO GOLF CLUB, S.A. is a privately held Spanish company (Sociedad Anónima, registered in Vizcaya) that operates Golf El Rompido, a 36-hole golf resort located in Cartaya, Huelva, in the western end of Andalusia. The property sits within the protected Piedras River marshlands and is the only 36-hole facility in Huelva without surrounding real estate development, situated approximately one hour from both Seville and Faro airports. The company is part of the SORZUBI corporate group alongside Bilbao Express, S.A. and SORZUBI INVERSION SL.

The core product is two distinct 18-hole, par-72 golf courses. The South Course (Campo Sur), inaugurated in October 2003 and designed by Álvaro Arana, is a flat layout bordered by pine forests, olive groves, and marshes. The North Course (Campo Norte), inaugurated in June 2006 and recognized among the Top 100 Golf Courses in Europe for 2026 and in the Peugeot Guide, combines power and precision with medium-sized greens. The operation is anchored by two extensive practice facilities (~40,000 m2 at South, ~30,000 m2 at North), the Peter Ballingall Golf Academy, a Pro Shop carrying major golf brands, and Restaurante La Terraza, with the adjacent Precise Golf Resort (5-star hotel with 184 rooms and 12 suites, plus 4-star apartments totaling 305 units and 1,200 beds) operated by an affiliated entity. Underlying technology is conventional hospitality infrastructure: teeone.golf for online tee-time booking, iMaster Golf for member subscription management, Google Analytics for traffic measurement, and Google Maps and Weather Atlas for on-site wayfinding and weather.

Revenue is generated through six streams: green fees (transaction fees for 18- or 9-hole rounds), equipment rentals (trolleys, buggies, club sets), Pro Shop retail (hardware sales), food and beverage (transaction fees at La Terraza and the Buggy Bar), event hosting (professional services for weddings, corporate events, and tournaments, with capacity up to 700 people in tent space and 300 in the event hall), and tournament entry fees. Pricing is unit-based and pay-as-you-go, with prices valid through October 31, 2026, and multi-day trolley discounts. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the website booking integration, supplemented by a membership program, tour operators, and Precise Golf Resort packages. The customer base spans golf tourists, corporate clients (Mercedes Benz, BMW, AXA Insurance for events), professional sports teams (Spanish and Chinese national football teams, Sevilla FC, Athletic de Bilbao, Red Bull Salzburg, Recreativo de Huelva for training camps), private celebration customers, and local Huelva/Seville area golfers.
