Neilson Beachclubs for tennis pros

It’s pretty simple, really. All of our beachclubs (with the exception of our windsurfing-focused Cosmos Beachclub) are a haven for tennis pros, with a range of facilities and coaching options. You’ll also have free reign over the courts at any time of the day (when they aren’t in use for coaching), and our on-site coaches will be readily available to chat over any aspect of your game.

But that’s not all. If tennis is your passion, our dedicated Mark Petchey pro tennis weeks will be right up your street. Mark is an ex-GB tennis player and Andy Murray’s former coach. So if you plan and book ahead to guarantee some face-to-face coaching time, Mark will put you through your paces with drills, high-paced play and give advice on strategy. Not bad for a holiday, right?

If you’re still not happy with your game, you can go one step further by booking one-to-one coaching sessions with our tennis pros to iron out any kinks or focus on specifically-identified areas. With this option available at all of our beachclubs, you’re sure to leave with a more rounded skillset and enhanced confidence in your game. 

So which of our clubs offer the best choice to finesse your forehand and ace your serve?

With stunning views of the Adriatic Sea, the Alana Beachclub in Paklenica, Croatia is a wonderful destination for tennis professionals.

With six courts to take advantage of, the club also features newly refurbished bedrooms and bathrooms, a 50m heated swimming pool, spa and an outdoor terrace restaurant: everything you need to both get active and relax in one stay. 

Try booking one-to-one coaching sessions to polish aspects of your game, or if you want some time out from the intense tennis action, sign up to our highly-popular ‘booze and balls’ event: think racket in one hand, beer in another, and more games than an Isner-Mahut Wimbledon match.

If you fancy a brief break from your tennis schedule, the club’s large bay provides a picturesque and breezy venue for a range of watersports, including sailing, windsurfing and kayaking. 

These two clubs in Greece, sit next-door to each other and share seven tennis courts, a variety of treatment rooms, gym, a 50m swimming pool, and some great scenic running routes. 

Messini and Buca Beachclubs also offer our premium tennis package for those interested in a more formal and intensive tennis schedule during their stay. Our premium tennis runs two hours per day, over six days and focuses on aspects such as playing at the net, conquering serves and how to master your game plan. You’ll get one-to-one time with the coaches too.

If you’re bringing your family, a kids’ pool, a range of kids’ clubs, mountain biking, and an exciting range of watersports makes for ideal entertainment for the family to enjoy whilst you nail your groundstroke (or for you to enjoy together during some family time). And when it comes to unwinding, you’ll find the pool bar is the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail or two while you reflect on your stay and what’s next on your tennis agenda.

From a practical standpoint, the clubs are very light on travel, with a short 20-minute transfer from the local airport. Boasting flights from Heathrow, Manchester, Birmingham and Gatwick, our Messini and Buca Beachclubs are perfect for both in-season breaks and longer off-season stays.

The relaxed vibe of our fantastic Baia dei Mori Beachclub in Sardinia makes for a great rest and recuperation stop in your busy tennis schedule. 

Back to business, the club offers four tennis courts, a swimming pool and treatment rooms and a wide range of fitness and yoga classes to ensure all aspects of your game and fitness regime are covered. If you’re holidaying with family and want some alone time, our Neilson-run kids’ clubs are very popular with expertly-trained staff who are always on hand to provide fun sessions designed to keep kids of all ages busy and active.

In addition to the usual Neilson activities and kids’ clubs, Baia dei Mori provides the option of road cycling, mountain biking, windsurfing, dinghy sailing, stand up paddle boarding and more of the stunning northeast coast of Sardinia. 

Regular flights from Heathrow and Bristol make Sardina a convenient destination from the UK, and the Baia dei Mori Beachclub is only a 40-minute transfer from the local airport, making for a seamless connection once you touch down. 

Without meaning to brag, we’re confident that all tennis professionals will love our beachclubs - not only are they great for relaxing breaks, but they’ve also been designed in conjunction with people just like you, meaning your every need will be catered for.

So whether you’re looking for a more intense stay to work on specific aspects of your game with a dedicated coach, or a more relaxed break to unwind and keep your game sharp, our clubs offer everything and more.

We’ll see you around.
