World-class tennis with the biggest names in the sport; at selected luxury resorts, your vacation includes training with real legends. Whether behind the scenes or on the court - stars such as Martina Hingis and Novak Djokovic, together with other greats, bring real star power to the court.
Training on the court with Martina Hingis or a concept developed directly by Novak Djokovic? This summer 2026, some hotels are making exactly that possible - and bringing professional sport to your vacation. At the end, the guests return not only tanned, but with the feeling that they themselves have come a little closer to tennis at the highest level.
"Aman" and tennis star Novak Djokovic, Global Ambassador and Wellness Advisor for the brand, are expanding their collaboration this year. The new "Mobility & Recovery Program" is inspired by the methods that have shaped Djokovic's career in elite sport. The three-day program combines individual analysis, exercise sessions such as conditioning or Pilates, tennis training with coaches and targeted recovery treatments - from hydrotherapy and massages to traditional rituals. The offer is complemented by breathing techniques, meditation and sound healing, which are intended to promote mental clarity and inner balance. Guests can book the program in five selected "Aman" destinations - "Amanoi", "Aman Nai Lert Bangkok", "Amanpuri", "Amanyara" and "Amanzoe".
At the "Verdura Resort" on the coast of Sicily, the focus in summer 2026 will be on a clearly tennis-centric program. One focus is the "Academies with the Stars", in which tennis pros and former top players lead masterclasses on site. Among others, dates are planned with Martina Hingis (April 27-30, 2026), Fabio Fognini and Flavia Pennetta (July 21-24, 2026) and Gilles Muller (August 27-September 2, 2026). Individual training sessions, intensive clinics and match practice also take place on six championship-quality clay courts, supplemented by structured offers for different levels of play - from beginners to ambitious recreational players.
In summer, the "Soneva Fushi" in the Baa Atoll will briefly become the focus of the tennis world: Todd Woodbridge, a formative figure in doubles tennis, will temporarily take over coaching on the hotel's own courts. From July 21 to 31, 2026, guests have the opportunity to book individual lessons or intensive training camps. In his career, Woodbridge has won 22 Grand Slam doubles titles, nine Wimbledon titles and Olympic gold, making him one of the most successful players in his discipline. The sessions focus on working on the court - from technique and understanding the game to match practice, taught from the perspective of a long-time top player.
