PICKLEBALL COURTS TAKE THE LEAD IN MUST-HAVE RESIDENTIAL AMENITIES
First came signature golf courses, then beach clubs, and now all eyes are on pickleball courts.
Calls of ‘opa’ are being heard around exclusive second home communities as developers add more pickleball courts. The pandemic led to growth in pickleball, and high-end homeowners want a piece of the action in their own backyards. According to Sports & Fitness Industry Association, in 2021, pickleball grew to nearly 5 million players in the U.S., an incredible two-year growth rate of 39.3%, and real estate developers are making sure to bring this popular new amenity to their current and prospective homeowners.
An exclusive, sophisticated hideaway in a relaxed coastal setting, The Strand is the first of its kind on Turks and Caicos with a limited collection of 46 luxury beachfront villas, custom residences, and homesites, alongside access to vibrant community programming and full resort amenities and services. The Beach Club flows into the centerpiece resort-style swimming pool, surrounded by native limestone, and the dramatic water’s edge restaurant and bar. In addition to the beachfront setting, the site offers 1,400 feet of canal and marina frontage, with a full marina and slips for owners, as well as several community yachts slips. Homeowners also have access to The Strand’s own Club Boats with a private captain, catamarans, kayaks, and paddleboards, as well as a tennis court, two pickleball courts, and a state-of-the-art fitness center with a secluded yoga deck.
