Tennis players often like to bring their rackets and play a few games while on vacation. With that in mind, you may be looking for the best vacation rentals for tennis in the South Walton and Destin area. We're excited to announce that Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort was named a “Silver Medal Resort,” by Tennis Resorts Online for the sixth consecutive year!

The ranking places Hidden Dunes among the top 50 tennis resorts in the world. Nestled along the sugar white sand beaches in Northwest Florida near Sandestin, Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort features six championship clay courts. The Tennis Center consistently receives high marks for overall tennis experience, tennis staff, and instruction. Additionally, the staff’s like-level game matching receives positive reviews with resort players.

 One Tennis Resorts Online reviewer said: "Hidden Dunes is a fantastic tennis resort and vacation destination. The resort is beautiful and the tennis facility outstanding. The tennis pros and entire staff continually give 200% each and every day. I have always enjoyed my time there and have met so many good friends." (May 2017).  

Tennis Director Renee Broxson is an active member of the USPTA, and attends world and sectional conferences for continuing education. She was awarded the Arthur Ashe Leadership and Sportsmanship Award and the Gulf Coast Conference Sportsmanship Award and was inducted into the University of West Florida Tennis Hall of Fame.  Her colleague, Tennis Pro George Cobia is also an integral part of the team, designing and implementing the instructional clinics and lessons. Cobia has been a Level 1 United States Tennis Professional for more than 25 years. In the Tennis Center, Quy Tran oversees the pro shop and scheduling like-level matches for players. 

But don't just take our word for it... Another Tennis Resorts Online review wrote "The Hidden Dunes tennis is the very best that I have participated in throughout the U.S. I have played competitive tennis for a period spanning 60 years. The pros, Renee and George, assess you level early in your stay… During my stay I played in a 2 day event and the matches were great and the courts were sweep before every match. I have booked my return for next year and have added more weeks thanks to the tennis and social activities amongst the players. Just the best place to spend the winter."  (March 2017).
