(show jumping) arena
Explanation:
Anyone in the field would just call it 'the arena'. But in yr context I would probably go with 'show jumping arena', as it's just a beach resort.

Ref. I'm a horse-riding instructor, and have been riding since the age of 6. I have participated in numerous show jumping competitions and events in Canada, Ireland, Argentina, Australia and New Zealand.
