Caribe Royale Orlando Sport Court

Caribe Royale Orlando Sport Court is the dedicated racquet and basketball facility at the Caribe Royale Orlando resort, located at 8101 World Center Drive, Orlando, FL 32821. The Sport Court sits in the Lake Buena Vista area off World Center Drive, with quick access to Interstate 4 and State Road 535.

The venue is a roughly ten minute drive to Walt Disney World. Padel sits at the heart of the offer, with two purpose-built courts, paddle hire included, and reservations handled through Playtomic.

The facility sits alongside the pool deck, fitness center, and Spa at Caribe Royale. It works as both a hotel amenity and a pay-and-play venue for Orlando locals, with day-of bookings and open matches for solo players. More detail is on the Sport Court page of the venue website.

The padel courts

The Sport Court hosts two outdoor padel courts, built to standard 10 by 20 meter doubles dimensions. The courts have full glass back walls and metal mesh sides, sit on a synthetic turf surface, and are floodlit for evening sessions through to the late closing time.

A maximum of four players is permitted on a court at one time, in line with standard doubles format. Paddles are provided at no extra charge for all bookings, which is unusual for a US padel facility and removes the friction of bringing or buying gear.

Tubes of padel balls are available to purchase on site if players need fresh balls. Alongside the padel courts, the Sport Court complex includes two pickleball courts and a half-court basketball setup, so the venue can suit mixed groups who want to rotate across sports.

Booking padel and access

Reservations are required for all padel sessions and are handled online through Playtomic, with live court availability and instant confirmation. Slots are sold in 90 minute blocks, the standard length for a Caribe Royale padel booking.

Walk-ins are not accepted without a reservation, so players should book ahead, especially for evening prime time. Court fees are charged per court rather than per person, with three rate windows across the day.

From 8am to 1pm a 90 minute court costs $75 plus tax, around $18.75 per player when split four ways. From 5pm to close the same 90 minute slot costs $94 plus tax, around $23.50 per player. Hotel guests staying at the resort get complimentary midday play between 1pm and 5pm.

Padel court hours are Monday to Friday 8am to 10:30pm, Saturday 8am to 9:30pm, and Sunday 8am to 8:30pm. The Sport Court is on resort grounds with on-site self parking and valet options, and athletic footwear is required on court.

Reception, restrooms, and the resort’s restaurants and Rum Bar are a short walk away. To book by phone, call the resort on (407) 238-8000 or ask reservations to add a Sport Court slot to a stay.

Padel programme and social

Head coach and general manager Angel Espadas runs the day to day operation and looks after coaching across padel and pickleball. Open matches are available for players who want to be paired up with other guests rather than booking the whole court themselves.

This is a useful entry point for solo travelers and new locals. Sessions run alongside the pickleball courts and basketball half-court, so the Sport Court has a busy, multi-sport feel rather than a dedicated padel-only club atmosphere.

Beyond the courts, the wider resort offer adds to the experience. Players can finish a session and head to the Spa at Caribe Royale, the resort pool, Stadium Club sports bar, or The Venetian Chop House. The on-site fitness center is open to guests for warm ups and recovery work.

Coaching tiers and lesson pricing are confirmed on request via the Sport Court team - see the coaching tab on this page for the latest details and to book a private or group session.

Best for

Caribe Royale Orlando Sport Court suits hotel guests who want to add padel to a Florida holiday without leaving the resort, and Orlando locals looking for a well-kept pay-and-play facility close to the Disney and Lake Buena Vista corridor.

The 1pm to 5pm hotel guest window is a strong incentive for staying on property. It is also a good fit for visiting padel players who want a quick reservation, paddles included, and a doubles game with minimal planning.

It is less suited to players hunting for a deep coaching academy, league structure, or competitive tournament calendar. With only two padel courts and a multi-sport setup, peak evening slots fill quickly.

The venue’s center of gravity is resort hospitality rather than a club community. Players in central Orlando with no resort link may also find dedicated padel clubs closer to home, but the resort setting and included paddles make this a strong choice for travelers and casual locals.

Head coach and general manager Angel Espadas runs in-house padel coaching at the Sport Court, covering private lessons, group sessions, and clinics for guests and locals.
