You can buy padel equipment in Bali at pro shops inside venues like Bam Bam Padel, Bali Padel Academy, Monkey Padel and City Padel, or order online through Tokopedia, Lazada and international retailers. Racket rental is available at most courts for IDR 50,000-100,000 per session if you are not ready to buy. Local pricing on rackets runs 15-25% above European retail because of import duties, so most serious players bring their racket from home. Overgrips, balls and accessories are widely available at decent prices. Last updated: April 2026.

Getting started with padel gear in Bali
Whether you’re moving to Bali for a season or just visiting, knowing where to buy padel equipment in Bali doesn’t have to be stressful. We’ve mapped out where to buy, what to expect, and whether renting or buying makes sense for your situation.
The good news: Bali’s padel community has grown, and you now have several solid options for picking up quality gear locally. No need to order everything from overseas (though that’s an option too).
The easiest place to buy is where you’re already playing. Most major venues in Bali have their own pro shops with trained staff who can advise you based on your level and playing style.
Bam Bam Padel (Ubud)
Located right at the court in Ubud, Bam Bam’s pro shop stocks Bullpadel and Drop Shot brands. You’ll find rackets, balls, bags, grips, overgrips, wristbands, and caps. The real bonus? They offer racket rental at two levels: IDR 50,000 for basic rackets or IDR 100,000 for premium equipment.
Monkey Padel (Ubud/Sayan)
Monkey Padel positions itself as the premier padel court dimensions with a top-tier pro shop. They stock an exclusive selection of padel gear and feature three exclusive Padel Packs by Bullpadel. If you’re looking for a curated, premium selection, this is your spot.
BPA NOX Pro Shop (Canggu)
Based in Canggu, BPA is the official NOX partner in Bali. They carry NOX rackets and accessories.
Indo Padel (Seminyak/Kuta area, Denpasar)
Indo Padel is known for affordability and a welcoming owner who runs programmes for all levels. If you’re on a tighter budget or prefer a more personal touch, this venue is worth visiting.
Online Shopping in Bali
If you prefer browsing from home or need something quickly, several online options serve Bali.
International Online Sites
Padel Nuestro (by air freight) and Amazon do ship to Indonesia, but be prepared for customs duties that can add 15-30% to your final cost. Delivery times are longer too. They carry far more choice than anything available locally, so they are the place to look for a specific racket or shoe.
Rental vs Buy: What Makes Sense?
One of the first decisions you’ll face is whether to rent or buy. The answer depends on your plans and how serious you are about the sport.
Why Rent
Most venues offer racket rental for IDR 40,000 to IDR 100,000 per session (depending on racket quality). Renting makes sense if you’re on holiday, trying padel for the first time, or testing whether the sport will stick for you. Zero commitment, minimal cost.
Why Buy
Buy if you’re playing three or more times per week. You’ll get familiar with your racket, your shots will improve faster, and you’ll stop feeling like you’re borrowing equipment.
What to Look for When Buying
First-time buyers often ask: what matters? Here’s what we’d focus on.
Start with your level. Beginners benefit from lighter rackets (340-365 grams) with round shapes because the sweet spot is more forgiving. Intermediate players gravitate toward medium weight (365-375g) with balanced handles. Advanced players often prefer heavier rackets (375-390g) with more head-heavy balance for power.
Second, think about the court speed and your style. If you’re playing on a fast court (like most indoor courts), a softer racket with more control is helpful. If you prefer attacking from the net, a firmer racket with a bit more power suits your game.
Third, hold the racket. This sounds obvious, but the feel in your hand matters. A racket that feels too heavy or unbalanced will tire you quickly, especially in Bali’s heat and humidity.
Finally, consider the materials. Carbon fibre rackets offer more power but come at a higher price. Fiberglass rackets are forgiving and often cheaper. Beginner rackets sometimes use a mix - they’re a good middle ground.
Budget Considerations
Quality beginner rackets start around $65-75. Mid-range rackets (ideal for serious recreational players) sit in the $150-200 range. Pro-level rackets can run $300+. For most people, starting in the $100-150 range offers the best value - good enough to grow your game without overspending on features you won’t use yet.
Don’t Forget the Accessories
A racket is just the start. You’ll also want overgrips (especially critical in Bali’s humidity - swap them every 3-5 matches), wristbands to absorb sweat, a decent padel bag with thermal compartments, padel-specific socks, and a few cans of balls.
In Bali’s tropical climate, an insulated bag with thermo compartments is essential - it’ll protect your racket’s EVA core from heat damage. And grab absorbent overgrips (like Tourna Grip) rather than tacky ones; humidity neutralises tackiness quickly.
Key Takeaways
Bali’s padel scene has matured enough that you can walk into a venue and buy padel equipment in Bali the same day. Bam Bam, Monkey Padel, BPA, and Indo Padel all offer different strengths, so pick based on location and your specific needs.
If you’re playing regularly (3+ times per week), buy. If you’re visiting or new to padel, rent. And remember: the right racket is the one that feels good in your hand and matches your playing style, not the most expensive option or the brand everyone else uses.
Bringing Equipment from Home vs Buying in Bali
If you already own a padel racket, bringing it to Bali is straightforward. Padel rackets fit easily into a standard suitcase or can be carried in a padel bag as hand luggage on most airlines. Check your airline’s sports equipment policy before you fly - most allow rackets as part of your regular luggage allowance.
The advantage of bringing your own gear is that you play with equipment you know and trust. The disadvantage is the extra weight and bulk in your luggage, plus the risk of damage in transit. A padel racket cover or case is worth the investment if you travel with your racket regularly.
Buying in Bali makes more sense if you are a beginner who does not yet own equipment, if you are staying long-term, or if you prefer to travel light and buy locally.
Pro shops at venues like BPA Canggu and The Court stock quality rackets from major brands, and the staff can advise on the right choice for your level and playing style.
Caring for Equipment in Bali’s Climate
Bali’s heat and humidity can affect padel equipment more than you might expect. Racket foam cores can degrade if left in direct sunlight or stored in hot cars for extended periods. Keep your racket in a bag and store it in a cool, dry place between sessions.
Grips wear out faster in humid conditions because of increased sweat and moisture. Carry spare overgrips and change them every few sessions to maintain proper feel and control. A dry towel for wiping your grip between games is also worth keeping in your bag.
