Una experiencia inolvidable. Las instalaciones son magníficas, el spa, la habitación, zonas comunes y el increíble museo. El trato del personal un 10, Jaime que lo tuvimos de profesor y David de recepción. Gracias a todos por vuestra amabilidad y cercanía. Esperamos volver pronto.

This is the tennis players' paradise. Not just because of amazing courts and coaches, but also because of the supporting services. The physio (Megan) was an expert in common tennis injuries and how to treat them. The sports massage was perfectly targeted at sore tennis muscles. The buffets are nutritionally brilliant, with lots of high quality protein, veggies, good carbs, and delicious. The rooms are spacious and modern. There is a fantastic gym, lots of classes daily, and a high end reformer pilates studio. The spa has various facilities to help with recovery. The atmosphere is really open and friendly amongst the guests.

The tennis plus program with 3-4 hours training a day was pretty intense but I definitely improved my technique as well as my fitness level after three days.

Just had one of the best weeks of my life here travelling with a friend. The facilities are state of the art, the staff are friendly and welcoming, the programmes are fun and well-structured, the rooms are spacious with a balcony and a mini fridge and it’s a short walk into Manacor for some local food. Will be going back asap!

Beautiful setting in Mallorca with loads of facilities including accomodations. We attended the pickleball tournament in Dec2023 and enjoyed the sprawling grounds

I have been doing a Total Tennis and Fitness Half week during April 2023 and the overall experience was good although its important to highlight a few points if you are looking to go:
- The program covers 3 group tennis sessions of 2h; depends on how they organise the teams it could be you will match or not with other team members levels. If not, like my case, they will replace it for 3 individual sessions of 1h. In my case Alex Moya and Eduardo (Valencia) did a great job and we had good trainings.
Courts are in a very good state and you will enjoy playing there.
- Fitness sessions are just 2 with the same group and are located in the gym. The trainer was professional and you will feel tight after it.
- For solo travelers they should promote social interaction as they don’t plan anything for it. My tip will be to speak with your team members or go at 17:30 to the museum as its when hotel guests have free entry and you could have a chance to meet someone there or in the terrace.
- Main language is English as guests are more international than spaniards. Not a problem if you can communicate.
- Drinks are not included in the prepaid menu and you will need to pay it there or at the check out. I will suggest at the check out to avoid confussions as it could be messy and surprise you at the end of the trip. Restaurant must have better control of the bills. Better keep all the receipts.
- For the Spa, bring your swimming cap or they will charge you 6€ as its mandatory. Spa is pretty decent and has good relaxing options.
- Rooms are big enough but a bit noisy when people walks in the main aisle.
- Museum shop doesn’t have tax free and stock is very limited. They only have stock of the expensive clothes… really disappointing.
- Rafa Club shop it has tax free and a lot of tennis clothes but service could be better and prices are high …££ Rafa clothes avg price 80€ t-shirt
- If you are a hotel guest you will have 1h of tennis court booking for free, lights not included… really? ££
- You can book Spa massages but be careful and be clear on which one you want to avoid confussions… I asked for A and I got B for double of price… would be a silly mistake? ££
- Hotel guests have the indoor parking although is not mentioned anywhere. The security guy Miguel was really kind and professional.
- Outside the courts, I felt some people of the reception/restaurant/shops service a bit tight and exhausted, in some ocasions they were not polite.
- Meals included the with package are all buffet ones without drinks…££, I will say the food is a 7 of 10 in terms of quality. For lunch you have buffet option for 16€ without drinks and Menu option too.
- If you want to see Rafa, all stars must be aligned but high chances will be during the morning at gym or on his court. He is really kind with everyone for pictures. Thank you clay King!
- Rent a car just in case you want to visit any town around or see the sea. The Academy is big enough to stay there but its good to move around.

The overall experience was good but I felt they always wanted to charge me for something although the program price is pretty high. I understand they “need to survive” but being honest the experience will be a 10 if you don’t have the feeling that they want to leak out your wallet. Inside the courts, the level of the coaches is high and you will enjoy!
