Where can you take business contacts on Mornington Peninsula after golfing?

Golf is an excellent way to network with business professionals or clients, enabling you to form lasting relationships with important people in your industry in a friendly yet entertaining context. A corporate golf trip could work wonders for your business.  

"It is a lot easier to get [business contacts] to say yes to a round of golf than to a formal business meeting. They love the excuse to get out of the office just as much as you do. And once you're out on the course you'll find that golf courses are seemingly tailor-made to allow for that type of relationship building to occur," says Phil Oscarson, keen golfer and author for American Golf, in an article with The Spirit Golf. 

The pristine, world-renowned golf courses at Moonah Links are rich in history and critically acclaimed, making this resort an ideal accommodation option for a corporate golf trip. Both the Open Course and Legends Course are excellent choices for a round of golf, with the latter's 18-hole course designed by Ross Perrett, revered Australasian Golf Design Course Architect. 

However, once every member of your group has sunk their golf ball into the 18th hole (preferably with many birdies and perhaps even a hole-in-one!), where can you take your contacts to continue building your networks and forge stronger bonds?

The following locations and things to do on the Mornington Peninsula are likely to strengthen the productive client-facing relationship building progress you made on the course. 

Peninsula Hot Springs 

Just a stone's throw from Moonah Links resort lies a serene, stylish haven known as Peninsula Hot Springs. Thermal, natural hot springs bubble up from the ground and are artfully decorated as tranquil cave pools, a hilltop spa with panoramic views over the peninsula, Turkish hamam steam bath and also spectacular massage treatments that would be a treat to work out the kinks and muscle pain after a day on the golf course.

There's also a reflexology walk through lush, verdant shrubbery and greens inspired by decor from Egypt, Greece, China for the ultimate Zen experience. Stroll over 10 different stone types amongst shallow water, massaging your feet so you're prepped for an even better next day on the course. 

Spike Bar

Right here on site is the delicious Spike Bar, boasting sensational views over the Open Course and gazing towards the Moonah trees. There's an alfresco terrace for summery drinks as well as a fully-stocked interior bar to indulge in a celebratory glass of whisky after your game and toast to your below-par score. 

Maritime military tour

Immerse yourself into an exciting, fascinating labyrinth of tunnels and fortifications around Point Nepean, a site rich in military and customs history. On this very spot rests the gun that fired the first shots in both world wars.

Nearby in Sorrento, which was once known as Sullivan Bay, your party can explore the action-packed tales of Lieutenant Colonel David Collins, who tried to establish a settlement in the area. Fort Nepean is also located on an impressive coastal cliffside for picturesque walks. 

Vineyards and breweries

Of course, there is always the chance to tempt your palettes with fine wines and craft beers grown and brewed locally amongst the bountiful terrain of Mornington Peninsula. There is a plethora of vineyards and breweries dotted throughout the area, so feel free to visit one and settle in for an extensive tasting session as you converse with your colleagues or embark on a vineyard-hopping excursion for a diverse range of vino. Most establishments offer food matching, for a culinary delight sure to impress your group and leave them with a positive impression of your services.
