Luxury Residential Projects in South Florida Add Intriguing Amenity: Padel Courts

Padel is closely related to squash, with an enclosed court surrounded by a ‘superstructure’ on four sides.

Padel has established itself as the dominant court sport in Europe, and it has now crossed over to the U.S., with clubs popping up from Miami to New York. The demand for memberships is high and waitlists can stretch for several weeks. While club memberships are highly sought, private community facilities are even more exclusive. However, some luxury residential developments now offer world-class padel courts for their owners, including in South Florida.

Nestled in the heart of North Miami’s $4 billion, 184-acre master-planned SoLé Mia community is ONE Park Tower by Turnberry. This luxurious tower boasts 299 unique residences, each with stunning views of the seven-acre Crystal Lagoon amenity, pristine natural landscapes, private beach access and breathtaking ocean views. The state-of-the-art amenities are inspired by resort living and focus on wellness, including 37 acres of active and passive green space with 8 miles of biking and running trails, private swimming pools, pickleball courts, and a wellness center with fitness facilities, spa rooms, and massage services.

The master-planned community developed by LeFrak and Turnberry has recently announced a new amenity, a partnership with Reserve, to create the brand’s first permanent club. The Reserve Padel at SoLé Mia’s two-story club is set to span 100,000 square feet, featuring four indoor and six outdoor padel courts, elevated viewing areas, and social spaces. Additionally, the venue will house a state-of-the-art gym and wellness center on the second floor, complete with a steam room, sauna, and cold plunge. On-site dining will be provided by South Florida’s Pura Vida, offering healthy food and organic juice options from an expansive terrace overlooking the central court.

Residents of SoLé Mia, including ONE Park Tower by Turnberry owners, are given access to an exceptional facility, which will also be open to the public with an exclusive membership component. Membership perks include priority court bookings, special event access, and second-floor health & wellness facility use. The club will host special tournaments, exhibitions, events, all-level clinics, curated kid’s programs, and corporate outings.

The all-encompassing amenities include a world-class racquet center complete with a pro shop, 10 padel courts, a stadium tennis court, 12 additional tennis courts, and 12 pickleball courts. Additionally, a two-story, 120,000-square-foot Field House offers two more padel courts, two tennis courts, four pickleball courts, and four squash courts.
