Where the judgement comes from

Before the firm: assets our Managing Partner has run

These cases come from the career of Julián Romaguera, our Managing Partner, before EROLA Sports & Hospitality was established.

Riviera Maya, Mexico · Bahia Principe · 2014 to 2016

Golf as the engine of a destination

What was done

Golf, four hotels and the residential scheme run as one system, taking golf to operating breakeven.

The lesson

Well coordinated, course and homes share services and lower costs.

Siem Reap, Cambodia · Sofitel Angkor Phokeethra · 2013 to 2014

Create demand before product

What was done

New source markets in Asia through tour operators: Korean partners chartered flights, and guests from China and Japan followed.

The lesson

Before investing in product, find out whether the problem is the product or the demand.

Phuket, Thailand · Blue Canyon Country Club · 2011 to 2013

The Clubhouse at the centre of the operation

What was done

Two courses run from one central Clubhouse, with accommodation and the restaurant as the social heart.

The lesson

Where a Clubhouse sits shapes operating cost and guest experience for decades.
