Family Trips
Family Padel Holidays
Padel is the rare sport a family can genuinely play together. It is doubles only, the court is small, the serve is underarm and the walls keep the ball alive — so a ten-year-old, two parents and a grandparent can share a court and have a real game rather than a polite one. An hour of that in the morning is worth more than a week of the kids' club.
The hotels on this page are chosen for that specific job. They are resort and beach bases with pools, space and half-board or all-inclusive dining, close enough to courts that a session is an hour out of the day rather than an expedition. If half the family never picks up a racket, they still get the holiday they came for.
We can add coaching for whoever wants it — a junior session while the adults play, or one coach across the whole family. That is the part we are most particular about: a coach who teaches children properly, rather than one who puts up with them.

Family padel holidays — FAQs
What age can children start playing padel?
Around seven or eight for a proper session, and younger than that for a knock-about. The court is a quarter the size of a tennis court, the ball is slower and the walls keep it in play, so a child who would spend a tennis lesson fetching balls is actually rallying. Junior rackets are shorter and lighter, and most of the clubs we use keep a few.
Can the whole family play together?
That is the best thing about it. Padel is doubles only, the serve is underarm and power counts for much less than placement, so a ten-year-old and a grandparent can be on court with two adults and the game still works. Very few sports let a family of four genuinely compete against each other.
Can you arrange coaching for the kids?
Yes. We can book a junior session while the adults play, a family session with one coach across the group, or a mix across the week. Coaching is the part of the trip we care most about getting right, so tell us the ages and we will match you with a coach who actually teaches children rather than one who tolerates them.
What if only one of us plays?
Perfectly normal, and the reason these particular hotels are on this page rather than the whole catalogue. They are resort bases with pools, beaches and space — so an hour on court in the morning does not cost anyone else their holiday.
Do you book family rooms and connecting rooms?
We arrange the rooms as part of the trip, so tell us the ages and who needs to be next to whom and we will ask for it when we quote. As we are pre-launch every trip is priced individually, which means family room configurations get sorted properly rather than left to a booking form.
Planning a family trip?
Tell us the ages, your dates and who actually wants to play, and we will put together a family padel holiday — rooms, court time and coaching that fits everyone.
