The Hilton Cartagena is a landmark resort located on the El Laguito peninsula, offering expansive ocean views and top-tier amenities. To maintain its competitive edge and cater to modern luxury trends, the hotel sought to upgrade its recreational offerings. MatchPoint was conceived as a premium sports hub within the resort’s sprawling grounds.
Project Overview
The Challenge:
Integrating a high-performance, professional-grade Padel court into the existing luxury landscape of a global hotel brand. The structure had to meet strict international sports standards, withstand extreme coastal wind and salt corrosion, and align with Hilton’s rigorous corporate aesthetics.
The Smart Solution:
We engineered a state-of-the-art sports facility using marine-grade structural steel and specialized tempered glass. The court was built with high-drainage synthetic turf and advanced lighting systems, ensuring flawless playability day or night, fully compliant with global resort standards.
The ROI:
A highly lucrative addition to the resort’s portfolio. The MatchPoint court attracts both high-net-worth guests and local tournaments, creating a new, consistent revenue stream through court rentals, memberships, and associated food and beverage sales.
