This year’s Wimbledon proves tennis is as popular as ever, and with this year’s championship drawing hundreds of thousands, many return home wanting to try their own hand at the sport. Hotels, resorts and clubs across the world offer spotless tennis courts and, while many tennis courts are the same, some have that extra edge with exceptional views accompanying a game of tennis.
Looking to play on an extraordinary court? These are 10 of the most beautiful tennis courts across the world according to the sporting experts at SportsShoes.com:
Crantock Bay Leisure Club, Cornwall, England
Located down the coast from Newquay, these tennis courts offer jaw-dropping views over Crantock Beach. The tennis courts (and heated pool) are available to both permanent local residents and anyone residing in or renting their apartments.
Malcesine Tennis Club, Malcesine, Italy
Situated on Lake Garda, this tennis court boasts views of the lake and surrounding mountainous landscape. Those who aren’t entirely into tennis can opt for a game at the nearby padel courts, a sport blending tennis and squash.
This 5-star hotel sits on the Côte d’Azur, and its tennis courts boast panoramic views of the Mediterranean.
Bunabhainneadar, Isle of Harris, Scotland
Close to the Atlantic Ocean is a tennis court so remote, it offers players a secluded escape from the busy world beyond. Surrounded by boulders, rolling hills and sheep, the courts were built after a four-year fundraising stint by locals. Tickets and reservations can be booked online.
This Barbie-looking tennis court in Ibiza is both stylish and bold. Whether playing a game of singles or doubles, this hot pink court is open to guests, with rackets available for rent in the lobby. Fun fact: Freddie Mercury once played here!
Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel, Cape Town, South Africa
This luxury property sits in the heart of Cape Town, and the hotel’s resident pro tennis coach makes for even more reason to visit the property’s beautiful court. This tennis court is surrounded by towering palm trees and lush greenery with views of the city.
Enchantment Resort, Arizona, United States
This tennis court sits smack in the middle of the state’s red rock landscape for an above-and-beyond view. Sedona’s Enchantment Resort offers both pickleball and tennis courts, as well as professionals to coach you in a game. After a match, hop into the resort’s pool next door to cool off.
Burj Al-Arab Helipad, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
This gravity-defying tennis court sits nearly 700 feet off the ground, and the views can’t get any better. Tennis legends Roger Federer and Andre Agassi played a friendly match for the first time ever during the 13th Dubai Tennis Championships.
Bürgenstock Resort, Obbürgen, Switzerland
Standing more than 2,800 feet above sea level, this Swiss resort’s tennis courts are known as the diamond domes thanks to its uniquely designed ceilings. The resort also offers Tom Bohunicky, a coach who has worked his magic at top New York and Slovakian tennis clubs in the past, as a coach for guests.
Il San Pietro di Positano, Italy
Almost cut into the rock face of Positano’s coastline is a hotel with an impressive tennis court. Play a game overlooking the Amalfi Coast before taking a dip in the sea.

Nov 21, 2024Immerse in an Invigorating Thermal Journey at Scandinave Spa Whistler
The glittering green pines and burst of jasmine lake beyond almost made me forget about the aches in my legs that slowly developed after the promised hour-long hike ran into the third hour. And, oh, there were my hips, showing up to remind me I was no longer in my 20s. I didn’t mind, though, because the vision that surrounded me during our guided walk through Garibaldi Park to Cheakamus Lake in Whistler, British Columbia, with Mountain Skills Academy and Adventures proved worthy of a thousand postcards.

In this city of contrasts, glass skyscrapers stand behind century- old temples. Street food vendors sling steaming noodles along roadways while tucked-away restaurants serve multicourse, Michelin-level cuisine. Roadways jam with cars as jewel-toned tuk tuks whizz through the gridlock. Long considered a tourist mecca, Bangkok also makes for a dynamic, budding location for corporate travelers.

Best known to tourists for the boisterous chaos of Palermo, the views of Mount Etna from idyllic Taormina, and for that capricious volcano itself, Sicily has far more to draw travelers. In Sicily’s southeast corner, one region encapsulates the Sicilian spirit that has seen it through conquest and natural disasters, a region less well-known to tourists but one of the island’s most beautiful and fascinating.
