NEX PADEL

NEX PADEL is a compact, two-court padel club at Jl. Pulo Asem Timur Raya No. 28, Jati, Kecamatan Pulo Gadung, East Jakarta 13220. Sitting in the leafy Rawamangun neighbourhood, nex padel padel offers a relaxed, community-focused place to play in the east of the city.

The venue is a short drive from Jalan Pemuda, Jalan Pramuka and the Jakarta Inner Ring Road, which puts it within easy reach of Rawamangun, Cempaka Putih, Kelapa Gading and Pulo Mas. It opened for soft-launch bookings during 2025.

East Jakarta has seen a fast-growing padel scene over the past two years, and NEX has carved out a niche as an affordable neighbourhood option rather than a sprawling multi-court complex. It is part of the area’s busy padel scene, with bookings handled online.

The padel courts

The club runs two padel courts, named Striploin Court and Ribeye Court in a nod to the venue’s playful, steakhouse-inspired branding. Both are full-size courts laid out to the standard doubles dimensions used across the sport.

With only two courts, weekend and evening slots fill quickly, so booking ahead through the app is sensible. The intimate size gives the club a friendly, familiar feel where regulars quickly get to know one another.

Players rate the courts well for cleanliness and general condition, and the venue holds an average of 4.7 out of 5 from around 145 ratings on AYO. Some reviewers mention the surface can feel a little uneven, so a proper warm-up helps.

Booking and access

Courts are reserved through the AYO Indonesia platform, which supports deposit payments and one reschedule up to three days before play. Court hire appears to run from roughly Rp 150,000 to Rp 240,000 per session, depending on the day and time slot.

For players without a regular group, community drop-in and trial sessions have been offered from about Rp 55,000 per person, a low-cost way to try padel or find new hitting partners.

Per the club’s booking terms, reservations are generally non-refundable and non-transferable except in cases of force majeure, so double-check your time before you confirm. Rescheduling, where allowed, must be done within the app.

Opening hours are not published online at the time of writing, so confirm current availability through the AYO app before travelling. Beyond the club’s Instagram page, additional contact details such as a public phone line are not listed.

Padel programme and social

NEX leans into the social side of the game, with fun and chill sessions that group players of a similar standard. These are often promoted by community organisers and through the club’s Instagram feed, and they suit beginners and improvers well.

The venue does not appear to run a formal coaching academy at present. Players wanting structured lessons should message the club through Instagram to ask about visiting coaches or private tuition, as offerings in Jakarta’s padel scene change quickly.

Because the club is small and community-led, it works best for friendly matches, casual mix-ins and social hits rather than large organised tournaments.

Facilities and amenities

On-site facilities include car and motorcycle parking, changing rooms with hot-water showers, and cold drinks available to buy. Rackets can be hired at the venue for anyone who does not own their own kit.

The shower rooms are compact, with one for men and one for women and located upstairs, so allow a little extra time after busy sessions. There is no restaurant or pro shop on site, keeping the club simple and focused on play.
