Pickleball Union Getaway Sold Out · Waitlist Open Trip Code: SLU-DEC26 All-Inclusive

St. Lucia: Pickleball at Sandals Regency La Toc

Five nights at a 5-star all-inclusive on the bluffs of Castries, with private court time reserved for our group all week. Coaches Marko Grgic and Will East run two hours of daily instruction, organized games match you with players at your level, and the lights stay on for night play after dinner.

Off the court, it's a real vacation: a half-mile crescent beach, unlimited fine dining and premium drinks, water sports, and the Pickleball Union crew at dinner. Bring a partner who plays, or one who's happy to watch from a beach chair. Either way, this is the week your game and your tan both improve.

Trip overview

Mornings start on our reserved courts: two hours of coached instruction with Marko and Will, grouped by level, covering skill development, drills, and live-ball strategy. From there the day is yours: round robins and matched games with the group, the beach, the pools, snorkeling, or a nap you've earned.

Evenings bring the group back together: open play under the lights for whoever's still standing, and dinners across the resort's restaurants with the Pickleball Union crew. By the last night you'll have a set of doubles partners you'll keep long after you fly home.

Your week on court.

Expect high energy and a focus on competitive fundamentals. Our goal isn't to drill you into the ground; it's to level up your competitive play.

01
Skills assessment

A quick assessment on day one places you with the right players and coaches, so every session and match is level play for the entire trip.

02
Morning group sessions

Formal large-group coaching every morning, opened and closed with a guided warmup and cool down. Injury prevention and recovery are top priorities.

03
Small-group breakouts

Breakout sessions built from your assessment and your needs, with individualized attention from Marko and Will on the things holding your game back.

04
Competitive play

Coordinated matchups and round robins put your work straight into real games, plus mini-games and exhibitions when time allows.

We prioritize more than executing common pickleball shots. Anticipation, court position, and shot selection are what break players out of plateaus and build winning points. You'll leave with better in-game habits, real knowledge, and a plan for your next competitive open play at home.
Every formal session includes
Food, refreshments, hydration, and cold towels courtside
Guided warmup and cool down, every session
All necessary equipment provided (we recommend bringing your own paddle)
Paddle testing, equipment advice, and re-grip assistance
Sponsored giveaways and awards
Mini-games and exhibitions when time allows
Want more? Paid private lessons with the pros are available depending on coach availability. Ask on your call.

Questions, answered.

What skill level do I need?

Everyone from 3.0 to tournament-level is welcome. Coached sessions and games are grouped by level, so you'll always play with and against people who push you the right amount.

My partner doesn't play pickleball. Should they still come?

Absolutely. The room price covers both of you, and while you're on court they have a 5-star all-inclusive resort: beach, pools, water sports, and spa. Plenty of couples split the week exactly that way.

I'm traveling solo. Will I fit in?

Yes. Solo travelers get folded straight into games and group dinners; many of our most loyal getaway travelers came alone the first time. Ask our specialists about single-occupancy rates.

Is airfare included?

No, you book your own flights to St. Lucia (UVF). Airport transfers to and from the resort are included.

What does all-inclusive actually cover?

All meals at the resort's restaurants, premium drinks, land and water sports, nightly entertainment, transfers, and your in-room stocked fridge. On this trip it also covers your daily coaching and reserved court time.

What if I need to cancel?

Your $400 deposit is fully refundable through October 18, 2026. The remaining balance isn't due until 60 days before travel, and our specialists will walk you through options if plans change.

How do payments work?

$400 down to hold your room, flexible payments after that, and the balance due 60 days before the trip. Our travel specialists set it all up on your call.
