Taking No Shortcuts: Santiago Gomez on Building the Future of Padel in the U.S

In this new episode of the Padel Smash Academy podcast, Cesc and Julian sit down with Santiago Gomez, Founder and CEO of Padel Haus, for an exclusive on-site interview at the stunning new Padel Haus Dumbo location in New York City. A visionary entrepreneur with roots in both hospitality and sport, Santiago shares how summers playing padel in Acapulco and a pandemic rediscovery of the game led to his bold mission: to redefine the U.S. padel experience.

From co-founding the globally acclaimed restaurant Cosme to launching a premium padel lifestyle brand, Santiago blends cultural sophistication, design, and elite-level athletics in every Padel Haus location. Now expanding to six clubs, including the luxe Brooklyn waterfront site with its indoor courts, social lounges, and spa-quality amenities, Padel Haus is building more than just places to play—it's building the future of padel in America.

Tune in as Cesc and Julian explore the journey, the vision, and what’s next for one of the sport’s most ambitious U.S. entrepreneurs.

Next week on Padel Smash Academy—we’re debuting the Northeast Edition of our Padel Club Reviews! 🎾 From Boston to NYC to Philly, Cesc & Julian are spotlighting the clubs you need to see.
