Our Facility
Our private indoor pickleball facility is more than just a place to play—it's where connection, challenge, and community come together. Located just minutes from the sand, this climate-controlled venue features four dedicated courts designed for high-level play and intentional coaching.
Created by a pickleball pro with a passion for player experience, the space includes lounge areas for downtime, a cold plunge and sauna for recovery, and event-ready hangouts that extend the vibe beyond the game. Whether you're locking in technique, running drills, or sharing laughs between points, this facility is built to bring out your best—on and off the court.
Beachfront Accommodations
Our boutique beachfront property includes three 2-bedroom cottages and one larger 3-bedroom cottage—reserved exclusively for our retreat guests. Whether you're coming solo or with friends, there’s space to relax, recharge, and connect.
With a private beach, heated pool, grills, and a laid-back coastal vibe, this retreat feels more like staying at a friend’s beach house than a resort. Each cottage has a full kitchen, space to gather, and is just a short stroll from beach bars, local dining, and charming shops. It’s the kind of place where connection comes easy—and everything feels a little more meaningful.
