The world of international golf has its eyes on the Costa Brava. In 2031, the region will host the Ryder Cup, one of the world’s biggest sporting events, which sees the teams from Europe and the United States go head to head every two years. An opportunity for international exposure that also highlights the destination’s potential to combine venues and services, accommodation, gastronomy and side activities.
In the MICE sector, golf offers many possibilities, such as a tool to strengthen relationships with clients, foster team cohesion or add an experiential element to conventions, meetings and incentive trips. What’s more, specialised resorts offer facilities and services that make it easy to organise comprehensive corporate programmes, with workspaces, accommodation, catering and complementary activities all in the same setting.
Camiral, located in Caldes de Malavella and host of the 2031 Ryder Cup, has two golf courses, the Stadium Course and the Tour Course, both highly rated internationally, and offers very attractive bespoke corporate golf programmes for designing exclusive incentives, client meetings or multi-day events, with golf as the common thread and a wide range of complementary experiences.
But the possibilities go far beyond the green. Camiral has meeting rooms and spaces for events of different sizes, with natural light, technological equipment and adaptable layouts for conventions, presentations, management meetings or working days. The offering is rounded off with different types of accommodation and dining options, as well as a Wellness Centre with personalised programmes, yoga and Pilates sessions, and treatments that combine traditional techniques with cutting-edge technology.
At the Hotel Terraverda in Gualta, the Empordà golf courses form part of the event setting. The hotel has rooms with private terraces and a large area for events, with meeting rooms, spaces for small committees and a large garden overlooking the golf course. The facilities can host everything from management meetings to presentations and corporate gatherings in various formats.
Its offering makes it easy to combine work sessions with team-building activities, group golf lessons and outdoor experiences tailored to different levels. Food and drink can also be part of the programme, with the Entrecamps restaurant, which offers a menu designed for sharing, and Terrafonda, ideal for breakfasts and informal breaks. A versatile setting for holding meetings, conventions, incentive events and team-building activities, with the Empordà landscape as an added bonus.
In Navata, the TorreMirona Relais Hotel Golf & Spa combines MICE facilities, accommodation, golf and wellness in a stunning natural setting. The complex has various rooms and spaces for conventions, professional conferences and business meetings.
The golf course offers the opportunity to include a sporting activity in the programme, while the range of accommodation options makes stays of several days easier. The day can be rounded off with Mediterranean cuisine at Restaurant El Canigó, based on seasonal and local produce, or with a wellness experience at the Dubhé Spa, which has a water circuit and treatments.
In the town of Pals, La Costa Golf & Beach Resort offers a unique feature for corporate programmes: the chance to combine golf and the sea in a single event. Located next to Golf de Pals and just a few metres from the beach, the resort has meeting rooms, all with natural light, such as the Gran Saló Empordà and the Sala Gala, both of which are excellent options for meetings and professional events.
The versatility of the facilities, combined with the dining options and the proximity to the golf course and the Mediterranean, makes it possible to design programmes that alternate meetings, sports activities and experiences linked to the local area.
In the Alt Empordà, the Hotel Peralada 5 * and the Peralada Resort offer an experience that brings together some of the destination’s major attractions: golf, wellness, wine culture, traditions and gastronomy. The hotel, located on an 18-hole golf course, has various rooms that can be used for everything from management meetings to presentations and corporate events.
Its unique selling point is the possibility of extending the programme with experiences linked to the Peralada universe. A business day can continue with an activity on the golf course, a visit or a tasting at Celler Perelada, a vinotherapy treatment at the Wine Spa and various culinary options –which allow you to discover the flavours of the Empordà – such as those at Restaurant L’Olivera or Restaurant Castell Peralada, which holds a Michelin star. The castle and its unique spaces also broaden the possibilities for organising corporate events.
