Aloha Tennis Club

Aloha Tennis Club sits in Marbella's Nueva Andalucía, among the villas and golf fairways of Golf Valley. It opened in 2019 at Calle París 1, a small club with well-kept courts on the Costa del Sol. Expats, locals, and visitors play here through the year.

Nueva Andalucía combines whitewashed homes, shops, and golf courses, including the nearby Aloha Golf Club that Javier Arana designed in the 1970s. Aloha Tennis Club has three courts, two hard and one clay, set within trimmed greenery a few kilometers from Marbella's beaches.

Players reach the club through the neighborhood's winding lanes, minutes from the AP-7 highway. The crowd ranges from retirees working on topspin to professionals playing after work and families enrolling kids in the club's coaching. Mornings fill with casual doubles, and evenings bring a mix of regulars and visitors. The scene stays relaxed and Andalusian, with post-match conversation in the café stretching into the evening.

You reserve a court at Aloha online through their Matchpoint platform, which works for both last-minute and planned sessions. Walk-ons fit into quieter hours, but booking ahead for evenings or weekends secures your spot as the club grows busier.

Hourly rates run around €20-€30 per court, depending on surface and time, with clay courts costing a bit more for their grippier feel. Demand peaks from April to October when temperatures sit in the mid-20s Celsius. Coaches give lessons from €40 per hour, starting beginners on the more forgiving hard courts before moving to clay. Winter play is mild, and early mornings can carry damp from mountain mist.

On-site parking is free for players, with space set back from the neighborhood's narrow streets. Nueva Andalucía's gated areas and patrols keep it among Marbella's safer pockets after dark. The area gets over 300 sunny days a year, so bring sunscreen, plus a light jacket for January days that drop to 10°C.

The club's on-site café serves tostadas, smoothies, and iced café con leches. A five-minute walk reaches more options: La Sala Roca serves tapas, and kiosks along the avenues sell gelato. Drink water, since the sun is strong on clay, and arrive 15 minutes early to warm up.
