Viya Padel at Emirates Golf Club is the original home of padel in the UAE and the flagship venue of the Viya Padel network, which now operates more than 26 courts across the country. The club sits inside the iconic Emirates Golf Club at Al Thanyah Third, Emirates Hills 2, Dubai, just off Sheikh Zayed Road.
Players choose Viya Padel for the sheer scale of the offer, the structured pathways from beginner to competitor, and the polished hospitality that comes with playing inside one of the region’s most established sporting addresses.
With 12 padel courts on one site, this is the largest single padel facility in the UAE and the busiest hub in the Viya group. The atmosphere blends championship-event polish with a friendly social vibe across mornings, evenings and weekends.
The padel courts
Viya Padel at Emirates Golf Club offers 12 padel courts in total, split between outdoor pitches and a dedicated covered Padel Arena at the Pavilion that houses two indoor courts.
The mix means play continues comfortably through the cooler season outdoors and through the hot summer months under cover, with floodlighting allowing late sessions until 11pm.
Courts are full-size doubles panoramic glass courts built to international padel specification, with synthetic grass surfaces and bright LED-style floodlighting on the indoor arena. The facility hosts regular tournaments and exhibition events.

The venue received the Eagles’ Wings Award recognising its work in promoting the sport and building community in Dubai. The atmosphere across mix-ins and Sunday Funday-style social sessions is welcoming for new players and competitive for regulars.

Best for padel in Dubai
Viya Padel at Emirates Golf Club is best for players who want serious scale and a polished members club experience: 12 courts, indoor and outdoor play, a deep coaching team and a packed social calendar all on one site.
It suits Dubai Marina, Emirates Hills and Internet City residents looking for a reliable Pay and Play home, juniors progressing through a structured pathway, and competitive players entering the Viya tournament circuit.
It is a less obvious pick for those after the cheapest hourly rate in town - guest peak pricing reflects the premium setting, so heavy users will get best value from membership or a Match Pack.
