    Love it; have loved it for years. Both of my children began their tennis at Sea Colony and, over the years, both they and the program have grown. We’re now starting yet another generation of tennis players who are learning at Sea Colony. While the leadership and the pros have changed over the years, the dedication to excellence, to learning, to making tennis a wonderful experience, whatever the age and ability, have been mainstays.

  • RK

    Sea Colony at Bethany Beach , Del.. continues to be my favorite tennis environment. The location, har tru courts, programs and pro’s are just great.

  • LM

    First rate facility and tennis instruction. The teaching staff works under the direction of the Sea Colony director so as to provide a consistent approach and teaching experience. Excellent set of drills throughout the week working through tennis progressions helps to cover all the facets of the game.

  • PT

    Loved the staff, facility, ocean proximity, agenda. Highlight of the year for my friends and me. The pros at Sea Colony were fun and offered better instruction than we’ve had in many other venues. We didn’t want our weekend to end! [We had our own lodging so not offering opinion on that!]

  • KK

    I have nothing but a great review of Sea Colony Tennis after spending this past weekend with my tennis team there! Alex, Katie, and Thomas were wonderful and each had something to offer. Enjoyed every minute!

  • JS

    A group of 7 friends did a weekend camp. We are 4.0/4.5. Pros and drills were awesome! Definitely recommend

  • MM

    Strengths: Courts always in good shape. Staff always helpful. Clinics wonderful. Weaknesses: Landscaping needs work. Back of courts behind curtain not as clean as it should be. A few summer hires not as good as they should be.

  • SG

    Great tennis- wonderful facilities! You will meet the nicest players in clinics and they will become your new tennis friends!! Beautiful accommodations and a terrific beach, also great restaurants- Sea Colony is the place to go!!!

  • GS

    Great location with easy access to beach and courts. It is a place we go back to again and again (2 – 3 times/year). We have met some great people there and there is lots of excellent tennis.

  • BP

    Its a wonderful place to go for all levels of tennis. They do a excellent job of pairing players. Plus their energy, ability, and creativity create different experiences for all those involved. Lastly, having said all that, it makes it feel new and fresh each time I play!!

  • RB

    In a overall setting, pros were good but worked 60 over crowd to much, my arm was basically ruined for 6 months and had to take prescription pain meds. No experience people there to tell me to stop but keep going your doing great. I’m still dealing with it so probably won’t return to a tennis camp. Can do on my own and group.

  • LB

    Fantastic programs and instructors. So many courts!

  • KC

    Best tennis instruction I’ve gotten. Will be going back every year!

  • PB

    Great place to learn, play and improve the game. Good facilities. My kids got on varsity because of the lessons there. Nice place to be. Close to the beach and good restaurants. My and kids favorite place to be.

  • CA

    Sea Colony tennis is my favorite part of vacationing down ocean. I just love starting my day with one of their morning clinics – always learn something new- the pros make it fun and worth the money and it’s always great playing tennis with friends on their courts. I have also attended a few weekend getways there with my ladies tennis team and we’ve always had a great time!

  • MD

    This beautiful tennis facility, in Bethany Beach, Delaware, offers tennis clinics and camps year-round. In courts indoors and outdoors, skilled instructors are there in Stroke of the Day daily clinics as well as weekend (and longer) opportunities. Instruction is excellent.I’ve no complaints whatsoever!

  • WB

    The instruction is insightful as the head pro is very good at identifying what changes will help each individual player’s game. Every instructor at Sea Colony has been helpful and made my visits enjoyable – it’s a great place to go for improvement and fun!

  • SH

    Strengths- the camp was well organized and ran on-time. 3 pros for our 11 players gave each of us a chance to work one on one with a pro during the drills. Head pro Thomas Johnson was personable, professional and remembered each of our names. Plus he had a great sense of humor. Individual coaching and positive feedback was a plus. They allowed us to play outside on a unusually beautiful day in early spring. The pace was perfect for our group and we were kept moving the entire time. Cons- can’t think of any.

  • BM

    Friendly , knowledgeable staff. All on the same page with their tennis instruction. Very organized classes with opportunity for all abilities.

  • AB

    I am very impressed with Sea Colony! The facility is clean and well maintained. Their pro’s are personable and knowledgeable. The staff is friendly. I find their prices to be the most reasonable anywhere. I love this place! Sea Colony is one of the main reasons we moved here.

  • IS

    Great staff. Talented and certified instructors. Teach well. Program well organized. Participants regardless of level felt welcomed and supported to do the drill or play without predjudice. We had a ton of fun. Personally I didn’t find a weakness to write about here.

  • RK

    Great facility run by top notch tennis professionals

  • RS

    I visited sea colony last fall for a tennis clinic. I learned so much! They gave me so much knowledge to take back back with me to my home courts. I can’t wait until I return to another clinic!

  • PB

    Great place for adults and kids. We’ve been coming for 7 years. My kids have been taken tennis lessons there. That got them to varsity team. Thomas Jonston is the best. He sees everything that needs to be changed and improves tennis game.

  • LA

    Great facilities, can almost always get a court, resort has it all – beach, pools, fitness center, activities, etc. The staff is great. Town of Bethany Beach is within walking distance with many good restuarants. Great night life is within 10 miles

  • LM

    Best weekend ever! Great instruction and So much fun.

  • LD

    The tennis classes are well instructed. However, the hour long classes are really too short. In addition, during the off season, there can be such a disparatey in skill sets of individuals taking the clinics.

  • BB

    Very welcoming tennis clinic program. Upbeat.

  • BS

    Sea Colony Tennis Center deserves the highest rating one can give any organization that seeks to provide both instruction and recreation to a diverse clientele. My own experience has been so positive that it seems extraordinary. The instruction has helped me improve my confidence, stroke selection, and shot tolerance–and the improvement in the last three years at Sea Colony is nothing less than miraculous. I should say that I’ve been playing since I was five, but I’ve learned more in the last three years–in terms of specific, explicit instruction–than in all other tennis lessons at some very good and popular resorts. Moving beyond the ‘stroke of the day,’ Sea Colony instructors provide specific guidance in court strategy for both doubles and singles matches. And they focus on the subtle but important variations of the Big Five strokes: instead of a single backhand, Sea Colony instructors work on high backhands, low back-hands, half court backhands, overhead backhands–each with its own grip or position (e.g. open stance). Down the line, cross-court, lob. The instruction is so good and precise that I turned my serve over to Director Thomas Johnson to entirely take it apart–with the goal of being able to understand what wasn’t working if my serve went awry in a match. I can now vary the position and spin on my serve–all of which makes tennis so much more interesting and enjoyable. And this new confidence build strength and focus. The courts are clean–pristine, in fact–and the atmosphere is friendly and kind. Perhaps what I like most is that the Center focuses on “nice.” The instructors and staff are “nice,” and they communicate an atmosphere of polite niceness which is too often neglected in the politics of tennis matches and competitive jockeying for position at other country clubs where I have played (and play now). You cant ask for a better weekend of tennis instruction and play–with so many indoor and outdoor courts, clay and hard surface. And you’ll leave with a smile.

    The tennis camp was very well run and fun. The times were accommodating and the pricing was reasonable. There was great value with the instructors. The instruction was meaningful and ample. We came away with more skills to practice.

  • TR

    Sea Colony staff is able to address every level of player with positivity and applicable instruction, while always having fun! The prices are fair, parking is adequate, and the setting is close to the beach. Just perfect. No negative comments.

  • DG

    Strengths: Plenty of tennis courts (hard and clay), all levels of tennis players, friendly and knowledgeable staff, located near ocean and good restaurants, biking, swimming, new fitness center. Weakness: Small pro shop, no lounge area on ground floor of tennis center.

  • EW

    Beautiful facilities, excellent coaching, nice community, near the ocean. Reasonable prices even in high season.

  • CS

    I’m not a frequent visitor to tennis resorts but I play a lot in my home area at a number of facilities and have several good points of reference about pro staffs, drill sessions, and facilities. I’ve found Sea Colony to have a high-quality teaching staff and excellent facilities. It’s well-run and there are drill sessions daily for all levels. You can play on lots of hard courts and HarTru – dozens of courts available. They run a number of round robins and there is a hitting list of locals and visitors. I’ve taken advantage of private sessions with some of the staff and followed up with the high-quality ball machine. Video sessions are next for me. There have been a lot of big improvements in the club itself and there is a brand new fitness center a short walk away.

  • SM

    Beautiful setting with plenty of courts, inside and outside. Tennis pros are excellent and make it pleasant to play there. Wide variety of clinics and socials. Plus, walking distance to a fabulous beach. Our favorite tennis spot!

  • PP

    Sea Colony continues to be an exceptional tennis facility. Great staff and well-stocked pro shop keep Sea Colony at the top of my tennis list!

  • CR

    Excellent facility led by Thomas Johnson who runs a fabulous program. I am going to the USTA Nationals in 2 weeks and needed some help while in Sea Colony last week. Thomas set me up with a great volley lesson with Greg, a doubles match with 3 great guys and 2 sessions on the ball machine. I’m ready.

  • RS

    With 6 indoor courts and more than two dozen outdoor courts, there’s always action at Sea Colony tennis. The daily clinics are fun and rewarding. Private instruction is top notch and a really good value.

  • JR

    The tennis instruction is exemplary. Weekend camps are great fun. Both hard and clay courts are available.

  • TR

    Thomas and his team of pros were exceptional. It was a great weekend of drills, lots of doubles play and even some video analysis. We will be back.

  • MS

    Awesome experience. I love Sea Colony

  • SK

    Awesome staff! Lessons are terrific

  • JP

    Sea Colony has high quality hard courts and clay courts with excellent clinics for all abilities. It is easy to meet players of comparable abilities through the clinics and get some additional playing time during your vacation. The instruction is of high caliber but it is a laid back environment where everyone can feel comfortable and enjoy the tennis.

  • MW

    Sea colony tennis is a full service facility. The pros are outstanding and always ready to assist players.

  • DK

    Strong centralized program with great staff.

  • RR

    The best tennis clinic I have ever attended. Thomas Johnston director of the facilities does a great job in making sure all taking clinics are satisfied with their lesson. BEST TENNIS CLINIC!!! Sea Colony also gives back to the community by giving free tennis lessons to our Wounded Warrior’s who come visit in September with their families.
