Access to golf, fitness facilities, and ocean activities are popular past times that attract buyers to specific communities. What many people don’t realize is that tennis has been gaining popularity in many private residential communities here on the Big Island. If you are a tennis enthusiast interested in purchasing a home here on the Big Island, the following three communities, presented in no particular order of preference, all offer world-class tennis programs for people of all ages.

Hualalai Resort offers one of the best tennis programs on the Kona coast, with eight Rebound Ace tennis courts open daily with an array of tennis programs that are personalized to help improve your games.

#2. Mauna Kea Resort
Mauna Kea Resort is the only community on the Big Island that has tennis courts adjacent to the ocean. The 11 court Seaside Tennis Club has won numerous awards for being one of the world’s top 100 tennis resorts. For years, Mauna Kea’s Seaside Tennis Club has been considered by many as one of the best private luxury tennis clubs in the state.

#3. Kohanaiki
New to the island scene is Kohanaiki. This private residential community is striving to create the ultimate private club environment. In 2014, Kohanaiki completed its tennis facility that includes two Rebound Ace tennis courts and tennis hale. Don’t let the idea of only two courts deter you from considering Kohanaiki as an option for your tennis needs. Access to the courts is exclusive to members, limiting the number of players who may use the courts. In addition, Kohanaiki offers various clinics, private lessons, and events throughout the year to help you improve your game.
