Baha Mar Cup
A Caribbean Getaway with a Tennis Twist

Not every weekend offers the chance to relax poolside in the morning, savor celebrity-chef inspired meals in the evening, and play alongside former Grand Slam champions and top ATP and WTA stars in between.

šŸ¤© The annual Baha Mar Cup, however, is one of the few weekends that pairs everything from incredible, one-of-a-kind tennis experiences with upscale yet inviting dining and social events across the Caribbean property, Baha Mar.

šŸ’Æ Within the grounds of the expansive yet luxurious resort, a stunning tennis center is situated adjacent to the Rosewood, one of three hotels on property.

šŸŽ¾ Complete with pristine hard and clay tennis courts, as well as pickleball courts, and centered around a coastal-inspired Pro Shop, the Baha Mar Tennis Center hosts The Baha Mar Cup, a weekend benefiting the Baha Mar Resort Foundation and the Mark Knowles Childrenā€™s Tennis Initiative.

Letā€™s review a few of the properties in far-out locations featured in our off-season article, shared above!

La Manga Club Sport and Leisure, PortmƔn, Murcia, Spain

šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾ ā€Visit every year. Fantastic resort and club. Great courts, always availability and great atmosphere/nightlife. Coaches are strong players and can read your game and focus on what you need them to, both fundamentals and finesse!ā€

The Jumeirah Beach Hotel - Mouratoglou Tennis Center, Jumeirah, Dubai, United Arab Emirates

šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾šŸŽ¾ "The tennis lessons I received were fantastic, I would highly recommend my coach Vishesh Bhatia. He was a lovely guy, very friendly & made me feel relaxed as soon as I met him, most importantly I loved his coaching methods. He didnā€™t over complicate things during the lessons & as well as my game improving during the week I really enjoyed the whole experience. I am just a beginner but I spoke to more experienced players who Vishesh was coaching that week & they were just as praiseworthy about his coaching techniques.ā€

Some drills are straightforward while others could be classified as ā€œweird.ā€ Weā€™ll take this tip from Functional Tennis if it helps us gain power and consistency on our forehand side. Press play to see if youā€™ll utilize this tip! ā–¶ļø
