PICKLEBALL IN CURAÇAO WITH FRANK SOLANA
Nov 13 - 22, 2026
Join FRANK For Some Play on the Spanish Water Bay!

WHY THIS RETREAT IS DIFFERENT
This isn’t a crowded tournament or a drop-in clinic squeezed between tee times — it’s an intentionally curated pickleball escape designed for players who want to improve their game, connect with like-minded travelers, and actually enjoy the destination.
With exclusive access to the courts, personalized instruction tailored to player level, and time built in for match play and meaningful downtime, this retreat strikes the perfect balance between focused coaching and resort-style indulgence.
Add in intimate social experiences with a top professional and the ease of an all-inclusive luxury setting, and you’re not just attending a clinic — you’re part of a truly immersive experience.

LOCATION
Sandals Royal Curaçao is your gateway to natural wonders and cultural richness. Dive into waters as blue as the island’s signature liqueur and feel the desert air mix with the ocean breeze. From cacti-studded coves to flamingo-filled lagoons, every view is waiting to be explored. Spend just one day here, and you’ll overhear stories in four native languages while sipping on Blue Curaçao, crafted from valerian oranges and island spices. Whichever way the wind takes you, Curaçao is best discovered by feeling it for yourself.
