Padel, please

Reserve Padel (North Miami)

CULTURE & LEISURE • FOUND Fitness

Reserve Padel’s new mega-complex in North Miami brings together sport, socializing, and networking with a hint of luxury (and also, an onsite Pura Vida). The place is massive, spanning over 100,000 square feet inside SoLé Mia. There are six indoor and four outdoor padel courts, plus two pickleball courts. And that’s just on the ground floor.

Upstairs, find a fitness center with ellipticals, treadmills, dumbbells, and physio balls, all overlooking the indoor padel courts. (The gym’s not as extensive as what you’d find at, say, Equinox — it’s more like a well-stocked hotel gym.) Upstairs, the wellness center is home to luxe locker rooms that lead out into cold plunge pools and saunas. There’s also treatment rooms for physical therapy and other recovery services.

But the reason you’re here is padel. The Juan Martin Diaz Academy provides private coaching and clinics onsite. Reserve also hosts pro tournaments, complete with stadium seating. The club can be accessed simply by paying the court fees, but membership has its privileges — special events, reduced court fees, priority bookings, and a private members’ lounge and bar. Individual memberships run $350/ month or $3500/year ($500/mo and $5000/year for families). –Matt Meltzer
