ISD Padel sits inside the 80,000 square foot ISD Dubai Sports City complex at Sports Village, Al Hebiah Fourth, Dubai Sports City, Dubai. The facility opened its padel courts in 2021 and has grown into one of the largest dedicated padel operations in the emirate.
The venue forms part of a broader multi-sport campus covering tennis, football and table tennis. ISD Padel is accessible from Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and sits minutes from the Dubai Sports City metro area, making it a straightforward drive from Downtown Dubai, JBR and Dubai Marina.
The venue is operated by ISD Dubai Sports City, which hosts over 1.3 million visitors per year across its sporting disciplines. With a 4.5-star Google rating from more than 180 reviews, the padel facility has built a strong reputation for court quality, coaching depth and a sociable playing atmosphere.
The padel courts
ISD Padel operates nine courts in total - six indoor and three outdoor. The indoor courts sit beneath high ceilings with strong air conditioning, keeping playing conditions comfortable year-round in Dubai’s climate. All courts are built by Jubo Padel, a specialist manufacturer, in a panoramic glass configuration.
Seven of the nine courts are standard panoramic doubles courts, while the ninth is a dedicated singles court - one of the few purpose-built singles padel courts in the UAE. The outdoor courts are floodlit for evening play. Court cameras are available for gameplay recording through the venue’s app, letting players review rallies and track improvement over time.
Advanced LED lighting covers the indoor courts, while the outdoor courts use professional floodlighting. The combination of indoor climate control and outdoor evening play gives the venue flexibility that most Dubai padel clubs cannot match.
Booking and access
Courts are bookable through Playtomic or directly via the venue by phone or WhatsApp. The facility opens daily from 07:00 to 23:30, including weekends and public holidays.
Indoor court hire runs at AED 350 per court for 60 minutes during peak hours (Monday to Friday 17:00 to midnight, Saturday and Sunday 11:00 to midnight). Off-peak indoor sessions drop to AED 270 per court for 60 minutes. That works out to roughly AED 68 to AED 88 per person for a doubles match.

Padel programme and social
ISD Padel runs a structured academy programme led by Spanish head coach Jordi. The academy covers daily training sessions, competition preparation, and camps for both adults and juniors. Private, semi-private and group coaching options are available - see the coaching tab for full tier details and pricing.
The venue hosts regular tournaments throughout the season, including events that attract professional players to the facility. During these tournaments, ISD organises camps and exhibitions where academy players can interact with and learn from top-level competitors. The @isdpadel Instagram account (9,500+ followers) posts event announcements and results.
Beyond the courts, the complex includes Kickers Sports Bar and La Famiglia restaurant for post-match dining. A cafeteria and snack bar are also on site for lighter bites between sessions. Equipment rental is available, along with a store for rackets and accessories. WiFi covers the facility.
Best for
ISD Padel suits competitive and social players who want variety - nine courts across indoor and outdoor settings, with a singles court for those who prefer one-on-one play. The Spanish-led coaching academy makes it a strong option for juniors and adults looking to develop their game through structured programmes.
The indoor courts are a particular draw during Dubai’s summer months, when outdoor play becomes impractical. Players based in Dubai Sports City, Motor City and Arabian Ranches will find the venue on their doorstep, while the E311 connection keeps it within reach from most of Dubai.
The multi-sport campus means families can combine padel with tennis, football or table tennis in a single visit. Spectator seating for 500 makes it a strong choice for group outings and competitive events.
It is less suited to players seeking a boutique, padel-only atmosphere - this is a large-scale sports complex with the energy and footfall that comes with it.
