Pickleball is fast growing in popularity. Much like padel, it’s sociable, easy to learn and wonderfully suited to holiday play. Increasingly, many of the world’s finest resorts now offer dedicated courts, professional coaching and organised social games, allowing guests to stay active while enjoying sunshine, exceptional service and beautiful surroundings.
For couples, families and groups of friends, our pickleball holidays combine light-hearted competition with effortless luxury. Matches can be as energetic or relaxed as you wish, with plenty of time remaining for spa treatments, beach days, fine dining and exploration. Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned player, the emphasis is on enjoyment rather than intensity.
Our specialists will recommend the most suitable resorts based on your travel style, preferred climate and level of play. From Mediterranean retreats and winter-sun escapes to multi-generational family resorts, we create tailor-made itineraries that balance world-class accommodation with outstanding opportunities to play.
A growing number of luxury resorts across southern Europe now offer pickleball courts alongside tennis, padel and broader leisure facilities. These destinations combine warm weather, excellent accommodation and easy travel from the UK, making them ideal for spring, summer and autumn escapes.
European resorts are particularly well suited to families and multi-generational groups, with spacious grounds, children’s clubs and a wide range of activities beyond the courts. Culture, cuisine and coastline provide plenty to enjoy between matches.

Where can I play pickleball on holiday?
Several luxury resorts now offer pickleball courts, often alongside tennis and padel. We recommend the most suitable options based on your travel dates and preferences.
Is pickleball suitable for beginners?
Yes. It is easy to learn, sociable and less physically demanding than tennis, making it ideal for first-time players.
Can families play together?
Absolutely. Doubles play and the smaller court size make it well suited to families and mixed-ability groups.
Do resorts provide equipment?
Many do, though availability varies. We will confirm what is offered at your chosen resort before you travel.
When is the best time to go?
Southern Europe is ideal from spring to autumn, while warmer destinations suit winter travel. We’ll advise on the best option for your dates.
Can you arrange a tailor-made trip?
