05 Aug Golf and business: why the best networking starts on the tee
Some of the most important decisions aren’t made in front of a screen — they happen under the sun, with a club in hand and the sound of a clean strike echoing through the fairway. Golf has always been more than a sport: it’s a way of thinking, a way of relating to others. And for those who lead, negotiate and build lasting professional relationships, it’s become the perfect place to do just that.
At Vistabella Golf, we see it every day. Executives who come to unwind… and end up making connections. Friends who become partners. Conversations that start on the first tee and close with a firm handshake by the 18th green. Because if there’s a place where time slows down, barriers fade and ideas flow, it’s here.
Four hours, four opportunities
A round of golf is more than just swings and scores — it’s shared time. And in today’s business world, time is one of our most valuable assets. On the course, it becomes something richer: a space for genuine dialogue, connection and trust.
Four or five hours without emails, without rushing, without office formality. Just people, nature, and the game. That’s when the best ideas surface. And that’s where strong relationships begin.
Golf and leadership: character is revealed on the course
It’s often said that golf shows you who a person really is. Not just their game — their temperament, their mindset. How do they handle a poor shot? Do they respect the pace of play? Celebrate others’ successes?
For business leaders, the course is a mirror. There’s no script, no presentation. Just reactions, gestures, moments. And those shared experiences often create bonds that no boardroom could ever replicate.
Real networking, without the name tags
Forget the typical networking events with business cards and polite small talk. Golf creates a different kind of connection — authentic, unforced. Whether it’s after a perfect chip, a laugh over a tough bunker, or that golden hour light settling on the back nine… relationships grow naturally.
At Vistabella Golf, we’ve created the ideal setting for that. Designed by former world champion Manuel Piñero, our 18-hole course blends beauty with strategic challenge. Rolling fairways, immaculate greens, a lake that tests your nerve… all set in a Mediterranean landscape that invites you to stay awhile.
