From cliffside retreats overlooking the Algarve to secluded estates cloaked in vineyard hills, we've curated five padel resorts in Portugal where the game is exceptional, but the experience is unforgettable.
Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the United States, and California has quietly become one of the most exciting states in the country to play it.
The luxury sports vacation has evolved. Travelers are no longer content to spend a week in a beach chair. They want mornings of competitive drills, afternoons of doubles, and evenings of farm-to-table dining with a mountain view.

Club Med Columbus on San Salvador in the Bahamas borders Bonefish Bay, a reef-protected patch of turquoise water rimmed by a white-sand beach, near Cockburnn Town. Not far away is the spot where Christopher Columbus first set foot in the New World—hence the name.
The secluded village consists of colorful, colonial-style two-story bungalows set back from the beach and bordered by lawns, palm trees, and sea grape. An all-inclusive resort, Club Med Columbus bundles not just meals and lodging, but some 22 activities, tennis among them. It is also known for its scuba diving, with a range of add-on programming for everyone from beginners to certified divers. Guests bed down in rooms splashed in blues and reds, variously with sea or garden views, some of the large enough to accommodate four. Among the other amenities and activities are two restaurants, live entertainment, a spa, an array of watersports—snorkeling, windsurfing, paddle boarding, sailing, and kayaking, among them—a kids’ club for ages 11 to 17, bike rentals, and live entertainment. The eight clay tennis courts are available day and night—four of them have lights—with daily clinics run by certified pros.
