Saddlebrook Resort

Wesley Chapel, Florida, United States

Saddlebrook Resort is renowned for its rigorous tennis program, inspired by the legendary Australian coach Harry Hopman, designed to improve both technique and endurance. Located on 480 acres north of Tampa, the resort offers a “Walking Village” concept, with centralized amenities including a pool, tennis courts, spa, and golf courses. The program attracts juniors aiming for greatness and adults seeking to push their limits, blending intense workouts with full resort amenities. While the training remains demanding, the once strict boot-camp approach has mellowed, focusing more on key concepts and individualized progress.

Saddlebrook Resort boasts 45 courts, including hard, clay, red clay, Rebound Ace, and grass, all available for guest use. The main tennis complex is centrally located, with a secondary complex in Lakeside Village, which also houses the fitness and high-performance centers. The Hopman-inspired tennis program, led by experienced pros, offers a 4:1 student-to-pro ratio and is known for its physically demanding camps. While meals aren't included in the program, the resort offers several dining options, and participants are advised to prepare with a fitness regimen before attending.

Saddlebrook Resort offers two Arnold Palmer-designed 18-hole golf courses, the Palmer Course with undulating fairways and water hazards (Par 71, 5,212-6,469 yards) and the tighter Saddlebrook Course with tree-lined fairways (Par 70, 5,183-6,603 yards). The resort also features a 7,000-square-foot spa (currently closed) and a 3,300-square-foot fitness center with Cybex equipment and personal trainers. The centerpiece is the Superpool, a 270-foot-long pool with lap lanes, water volleyball, and heated whirlpools. Dining options include TD’s Sports Bar and a pool bar, with prime beef and seafood available.

Saddlebrook Resort offers 790 rooms and suites, most located in 50-unit clusters near the main clubhouse, pool, or along the golf fairways. The basic accommodation is a hotel room with two double beds and a private balcony or patio, while one- and two-bedroom suites include full kitchens, living and dining areas, and private baths. High-speed Internet is available throughout the resort. Guests enrolled in the Saddlebrook International Tennis program can book discounted rooms, including a deluxe guest room, 5 hours of daily tennis, complimentary court time, lunch, and access to the fitness center and spa.

Saddlebrook Resort and its Hopman tennis programs run year-round, though the intense clinics can be especially challenging in the hot, humid summer. As a result, camps are typically two to three times larger in the fall, winter, and spring. Consider the seasonal weather before booking during summer.
