Bali Padel Academy (BPA) in Canggu is one of Bali’s Premier Padel tour facilities with seven international-standard courts set among rice fields. It is home to the NOX Future Academy, offering coaching from internationally certified coaches using the NOX Method. Facilities include an infinity pool, restaurant, and a 200-spectator centre court. Court booking is via Playtomic, 7am to 11pm daily. BPA suits serious players and beginners alike, with structured coaching and regular community events.
What is Bali Padel Academy like?
Bali Padel Academy (BPA) is Canggu’s premier padel destination, and it’s one of a kind. We’re talking seven semi-indoor courts set among rice fields, certified by the Spanish Padel Federation, with a centre court that seats 200 spectators.
Whether you’re here for serious coaching or weekend matches, this venue delivers on every front - courts, coaching, facilities, and that perfect blend of professionalism and tropical chill that makes Bali special.
What sets BPA apart isn’t just the courts themselves (though they’re exceptional). It’s the NOX Method coaching, the recovery facilities, the pro shop, and that infinity pool overlooking the fields. You get the feeling that the team here has thought about every detail of what makes padel experience worth paying for.
Bali Padel Academy Courts and Facilities
BPA’s court setup is purpose-built for serious play. You’ve got seven semi-indoor courts featuring textured turf, 14-metre-high ceilings, and Playtomic rating system integration - so your matches are tracked and you can follow your progression over time. The centre court has dedicated gallery seating for 200 spectators, making it ideal for tournaments and social events.
Beyond the courts, the facilities are impressive. There’s a pro shop stocked with NOX gear (so you can upgrade your racket or grab new shoes immediately). The infinity pool overlooks the rice fields - perfect for cooling off post-match.
You’ll also find a sauna, ice bath, kids playground, and a restaurant on-site. The venue runs 7am to 11pm daily (closed only on Nyepi, Bali’s Day of Silence), which gives you plenty of flexibility for booking.
The whole facility sits in Canggu, set among rice fields. The location itself is beautiful - tropical, peaceful, but still central enough to get to easily.
The NOX Method - Coaching Excellence
If you’re serious about improving your game, this is where BPA stands out. The venue is the international headquarters of NOX Future Academy (NFA), and every coach on staff is certified in the NOX Method.
The NOX Method was created by Pablo Crosetti, who headed up NFA Barcelona before bringing his expertise to Bali. Crosetti’s track record speaks for itself - he trained world champion Agustín Tapia from age 12, plus Leo Ausburger and Tino Libaak. That’s not just experience; that’s elite-level pedigree.
What does NOX Method coaching actually mean? Your coaches focus on both tactical and technical development, simulating real in-game situations so you’re not just drilling - you’re learning how to win. The academy uses latest methodologies, video analysis, and NOX equipment during sessions. It’s structured, professional coaching delivered by instructors who’ve trained champions.
Beyond group coaching, BPA offers their Padel Coach Level 1 certification programme if you want to get qualified to coach others. That’s a serious commitment, but it speaks to the depth of knowledge available here.
Pricing and Court Costs
BPA’s pricing sits at the premium end of Bali’s spectrum - which makes sense given the facility quality and coaching expertise. Here’s what you’re looking at:
If you’re comparing: the cheapest option in Bali (City Padel in Denpasar) is around IDR 90,000 per court, while BPA charges per person rather than per court - so cost depends on group size. For solo players or pairs looking for serious facilities and coaching, BPA offers premium pricing for premium experience.
Many visitors find that booking multi-session packages or becoming a regular player brings better value, especially if you’re leaning into the coaching side of things.
If you are visiting Bali for a week or more, BPA’s multi-session packages bring the per-session cost down significantly. It is worth asking about these at the front desk, especially if you plan to combine court hire with coaching.
What Players Are Saying
We don’t just make claims about quality - here’s what the players who’ve actually visited BPA are saying:
One player called it “one of the best experiences” they’ve had. Another group described their June 2025 visit as “very well coordinated,” praising the organizers who “proved to be great professionals, attentive and organised in every detail.”
The consistent themes from reviews: expert coaching, premium facilities, relaxing tropical atmosphere, family-friendly vibe, and high court quality. One review summed it up perfectly: “The finest courts, coaches, vibes and views make Bali Padel Academy one of a kind.” Another called it “more than a club; it’s an academy, a social hub, and a community.”
Over 100 Google reviews speak to the reputation - and the fact that players keep coming back says a lot.

Our Verdict on Bali Padel Academy
If you’re willing to pay for quality, Bali Padel Academy is the answer. This isn’t just another padel venue - it’s a seriously well-run academy that happens to be in Bali. The courts are world-class, the coaching comes with real credentials, and the facilities (pool, sauna, restaurant) make this a full experience rather than just court time.
It works best for players who are serious about improving their game or who want to combine padel with recovery and relaxation. It also works brilliantly for groups and event hosting.
Is it the most affordable option in Bali? No. Is it worth the premium? Yes - particularly if coaching and facility quality matter to you. We’d recommend booking well in advance, especially for peak-time slots, and considering a Playtomic membership to track your progression alongside the academy’s coaching.
Bali Padel Academy Competitive Scene
Beyond day-to-day play, BPA is serious about hosting competitive padel. The venue runs weekly Americano tournaments (rotating doubles format) for social players and competitive enthusiasts alike. The BPA Open is the biggest padel tournament in Indonesia - check our full events calendar - if you want high-level competitive play, this is where it happens.
BPA also attracts the highest concentration of high-level and pro players in Bali, thanks to the NOX coaching and tournament hosting. If you’re looking to level up your game by playing against better competition, this venue naturally draws that crowd.
Americano sessions are open to all levels, so you do not need to be an advanced player to join. The format keeps things social and you will get to play with different partners throughout the evening. Check in at the front desk or message BPA on Instagram to register for the next session.
