My wife and I travel a lot and next year will be Nadal camp in Spain. Palmas is the largest tennis destination in the Caribbean and has clay which we prefer. Staff is great, pros knowledgeable and well trained. We did an Airbnb and were very impressed with the quality of tennis and safety of palmas. Rent a golf cart and explore 1500 ac with 3 miles of beach
This is a Really nice large facility in the Caribbean. Would recommend.
I came to Palmas del Mar 4 years ago when I was planning my retirement. They let me play as a guest and few months later I decided to move from Maryland to Humacao, Puerto Rico. Right now I live about 10 minutes from Palmas del Mar and the Palmas Athletic Club. I play almost every 1-3 hours/day. All staff from the administration to the maintenance are very attentive, competent and helpful. I recommend the club to every friend that I have. When I have friends visiting I always take them to Palmas because it is a beautiful place. 👍🏼🎾
Welcoming facility – especially enjoyed the adult tennis clinics. Strong youth program too!
If you are a tennis player you will love Palmas Athletic Club at Palmas Del Mar. Lots of courts, great pros, excellent clinics, and lots of well organized events. Easy to find people to play with. Great for players of all levels. There is also a very active pickle ball community for those who prefer that racket sport.
My family was visiting (from Maine) our friends at the Palmas del Mar, and I had the opportunity to do two sessions of the group practice with tennis coaches for advanced teens (even though I am intermediate level). I learned a lot from practicing with the other kids. I especially learned a lot from coach Jean when I played a full match with him. He gave amazing tips and advice on how to keep improving throughout the whole match and didn’t go too easy on me, which allowed me to practice playing at a higher level and challenged me in a really fun way. So grateful for this experience!
Great racquet center. Very clean and organized . Pickleball courts are amazing here and the pickleball community even better. New pickleball coach is tops 3 player in the island.
Im an avid Tennis and Pickleball player and really enjoy The Palmas del Mar Athletic Club Racket Center. They have 6 Pickleball Courts with a great ambiance and competitive players. They also have 2 tennis clay Courts and 16 hard courts.
My son took a tennis clinic with Elisabeth and William and really enjoyed them. He learned some new techniques that he will use. Thanks, and we look forward to future lessons when we visit PR.
Big love to my favorite coach and clinic master, William Sanchez Brown. Great tennis pro and teacher. Also adjusted my racquet to relieve shoulder pain!
William and Coach Elisabeth make improving my tennis skills easy. Great front office and grounds staff as well!
Beautiful facility, staffed by gracious people and expert tennis pros who go out of their way to arrange matches and pair players with similar USTA ranking. The instruction and coaching is top notch for all levels through 5.0. It’s the best all around program and facility in the Caribbean.

At PAC I’ve joined group clinics with my kids and I’ve also had private lessons as well. Even though I don’t live in Palmas and have only vacationed the last few years, what keeps me coming back is the Tennis Center. .. I can say that many of the people I’ve met at PAC, I consider friends, and to me, thats what it’s all about.. PAC has a special place in my heart. I can’t recommend Palmas Athletic Club enough.
I visit Palmas every year with my family. All the tennis coaches are amazing and professional. The clinics (for both adults and kids) are so much fun too. We specifically love to work with Coach Luis. My son is 8 years old now and he has been taking private lessons with him since he was about 4. Luis is an excellent instructor and really great with kids (and adults). My partner (who is an athlete) and I also took a private lesson with Luis. We found it extremely helpful in improving our form and now it’s more fun for us to play together.
We have been extremely fortunate to have enjoyed the tennis club at Palmas Del Mar for a few years now and I must say their Tennis pro’s are amazing. Elizabeth and William are great at what they do and super fun. They put on great events and the members are wonderful people too. Love playing tennis and pickleball here. Highly recommend. Can’t wait until next time. 💕🎾
I spent one night at the resort and I wanted to play tennis. Very well organised, they arranged a group tennis class in less than a day and I had a lot of fun. Very professional, very good equipment to rent.
Great facility
Maintained very well
Great clinics by instructors
