Home of Padel - Saadiyat Rotana Resort & Villas

Home of Padel - Saadiyat Rotana Resort & Villas brings padel to one of Abu Dhabi’s leading beachfront locations on Al Saadiyat Island. Operated by Together Sport Services, the facility sits within the five-star Saadiyat Rotana Resort & Villas and offers three outdoor doubles courts on crystal synthetic turf.

Home of padel - saadiyat rotana resort & villas padel is a strong option for residents and visitors on Saadiyat Island. The resort sits just 20 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport and 15 minutes from Yas Island attractions including Ferrari World and Warner Bros. World.

The courts are open daily from 07:00 to 23:00, giving players a wide booking window that suits early risers and those who prefer evening sessions under floodlights.

The padel courts

Home of Padel has three outdoor doubles padel courts, each built with a crystal synthetic grass surface. All three - Padel 1, Padel 2 and Padel 3 - are fully bookable online through Playtomic.

The crystal turf provides consistent ball bounce and solid grip underfoot in Abu Dhabi’s warm climate. Each court is a standard doubles size, suitable for the traditional four-player format.

The courts are floodlit, which means play continues comfortably into the evening. With sunset temperatures often more pleasant than daytime heat, the evening slots from 18:00 onwards tend to be popular.

The outdoor setting on Saadiyat Island means players are surrounded by the resort’s landscaped grounds. There is no roof or canopy, so players should plan around the hottest hours during summer months.
