    I have attended the daily tennis clinics led by Mary Dang-Hannsz for over ten years when in Kauai and love-love-love them! They are fun and have improved my tennis game– great to meet fellow tennis players from all over! Mary is very observant of each player’s tennis strokes. All the instruction that she has provided is delivered in an easy to understand manner and make a difference. Just played in a tournament on the mainland — her pointers came to mind and helped my play. And how can you beat the experience of playing in paradise? — the grounds of Hanalei Bay Resort are beautiful.
    Dang, tennis is fun!!! (LOL, had to pun/play off of Mary’s maiden name…)

    Mary has developed an all round racquet sports program suitable for all ages. I especially enjoyed her shot of the day class. She has a unique ability to communicate shot improvements that the student can visually understand. Not only that the class was so fun and a blast! I highly recommend her tennis program.

    I have been taking lessons from Mary at Hanalei Bay resort for seven years now. Mary is the best instructor that I have had her methodology in teaching tennis exceeded my expectations. The first thing I do when I arrive for my vacation in Kauai is schedule my Tennis with Mary.

    I am so happy I chose to take a tennis lesson with Mary while staying at Hanalei Bay Resort. I hadn’t played in years and it showed! I learned so much in my first lesson that I decided to take another one the next day. Mary is patient, insightful and inspiring. I went home ready to dust off my racket and get back into the sport. I would most definitely recommend the tennis program at Hanalei Bay resort.

    Tennis pro Mary Hannsz is the best pro I have ever had the privilege of taking lessons from. She has great insights and gives instruction that is right on target. She runs a wonderful tennis program that attracts both local residents and guests at Hanalei Bay Resort. She keeps the facilities in top condition. Plus, she is just a nice person who is fun to be around and makes everyone feel welcome and special. We have come to the resort many times, and the first thing we do is schedule clinics and lessons with Mary.

    Mary is a brilliant tennis professional in an ideal setting to improve your game. Her depth, knowledge and attention to detail will leave you with tangible tools and techniques to take your tennis game to a higher level. She is the reason why Hanalei Bay Resort tennis has attained and maintains such a high reputation regarding tennis at all levels. What a tremendous resource!

    Mary is a superb teacher. She helped us get back into tennis in an encouraging and fast way that made us so happy. She is a fun group coach and managed to blend many levels so all have a great time and improve skills. The program at Hanalei Bay is a reason we have bought more time shares. Mary is a Kauai treasure!!

    We visit Hanalei Bay Resort from nearly every year! I really enjoy the facility because of the variety of playing surfaces. We love playing tennis and specifically chose the resort because of Mary and her fantastic tennis program. She brings the teaching skill-set, the patience, and frankly, the fun and Aloha spirit that bring us back year after year. I always play better when i get home from the skills i pick up at the clinics. I’ve stayed at other private condos etc in Princeville and actually gravitated back to HBR because of the great memories we share as a result of her clinics and generosity in setting up outside play, til next time….Mahalo Mary 🌴 MS (Colorado, USA)

    I found Mary and her clinics after a google search of tennis facilities in Princeville and I am so glad I did! Her clinics are great fun and great exercise. She was also able to hook me up with other members of my level for some competitive matches. The courts are wonderful, rain or shine tennis and you cannot beat the setting.

  • JS

    Mary is beyond amazing! She has a very calm skilled way of teaching tennis, yet still so fun. She inspires my daughter and I to become life long tennis players as you see her love and commitment to the sport. Her beautiful soul and healthy attitude also makes you want to come back to HBR again and again!

  • MC

    Best tennis in the island! Mary is a wonderful instructor and her drills are amazing. I look forward to playing at HBR every time I’m up north!! Thanks for all you do Mary!!

  • JA

    Mary was amazing! My daughter was new to tennis and said her lesson with Mary was the most helpful instruction to get started on the right foot. Highly recommend!

  • RJ

    Some of the most beautiful and picturesque courts in the world. Just playing in such an iconic location inspires you to elevate your game. Mary is a knowledgeable instructor who knows how to assess your game and break complex instructions down into simple and actionable steps that lead to improvements right then and there. She’s also welcoming and wants you to enjoy tennis as much as she does. She’ll always make time for a quick chat, or even shoot me a text if someone is down a doubles partner. Whenever I visit HBR I feel like I’m one of the gang.

  • JG

    My adult kids had their first tennis lessons at HBR this June, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Mary the tennis pro could not have been a better coach. She had great technical advice was patient and always encouraging. I highly recommend Mary and the HBR program for anyone looking to get started or brush up on their game.

    Best place for tennis on Kauai! I heard that the pickleball program is also top notch. Well maintained courts in a beautiful setting. Mary does a great job! Her instruction took me to a new level.

    I really enjoy playing tennis at Hanalei Bay Resort and look forward to playing every time Catrina and I are fortunate enough to come to Kauai.

    The morning clinic is always fun. Mary of course is great with her knowledge and Aloha spirit !!!

    On as side note, I think the ratio of tennis courts to pickleball courts is spot on

  • LF

    Hanalei Bay is my favorite place to play!!!! Everyone is so nice and welcoming and Mary is the best pro ever.

  • PA

    Playing tennis at Hanalei Bay Resort has become a favorite and regular activity whenever I visit Kauai. Pro Mary is an excellent coach and I love the all-weather courts. Mahalo!

  • ET

    The facilities at Hanalei Bay Resort are terrific and Mary creates a fun and welcoming environement. I always get great tips to improve my game and she has amazing patience for the less good players like myself. Not only do I learn but it is enjoyable and one of the main reasons we visit every year. Not only does she provide 1:1 coaching but she facilitates group and kids sessions and there is always somethng going on. I’ve learned to book erly as she has a busy schedule! The addition of pickleball is an added plus for the entire family and those that prefer it over tennis.

  • BH

  • TC
