1. The Reserve at Polo Villas – La Quinta, CA

The Reserve is our newest addition to the Polo Villas neighborhood in Coachella Valley. The Reserve #15 and The Reserve #18 have their very own pickleball court, pool, and fire pit—which we think makes this already conveniently located home that much better for festival season. If you’d rather have a bocce ball instead of a pickleball court, you might be on the wrong blog, but also The Reserve homes #12 and #16 have those.

Looking for other places to stay during the festival season? Here’s our list of the best Airbnbs for Coachella Valley Festivals.

2. Chianti – Sonoma, CA

You’re gonna love this one. Chianti is a Sonoma beauty offering a brand new, top-notch court from FlexCourt, featuring elite tiles designed specifically for pickleball. This cushioned, synthetic surface enhances traction and playability, reduces joint stress, and ensures quick drainage. Chianti’s court also comes with four of the latest Owl Paddles: the industry’s quietest and best-performing paddle. Enjoy superior balance, maneuverability, and reduced arm strain for you and the whole crew.

14. Mesquite38 – Thermal, CA

Game, set, match at Mesquite38. This estate in Coachella Valley has our favorite pickleball court—partially because it doubles as a tennis court and because of its cerulean blue color surrounded by contrastingly pink flora (can you say “gorg?”)…but also because of the unparalleled amenities this property provides. We can’t fit them all in this blog, but our favorites are the: oversized hot tub, two bocce ball courts, spacious pool house with a bar, a gym, a huge pool, a tennis court, and 6 beach cruiser bikes. If you have an upcoming big event, this house is definitely the best call.

Pickleball: A Fun Sport for Everyone

Pickleball is widely loved for being one of the most inclusive and easygoing sports out there, making vacation rentals with pickleball courts a fantastic pick for travelers of all ages and abilities. Here’s why it’s such a great option:

• Easy to Learn: Pickleball is super simple to pick up! With easy-to-follow rules and a smaller court than tennis, it’s perfect for beginners. But don’t worry, experienced players can still get their competitive fix!
• Fun for All Ages: This game really brings everyone together—kids, adults, and seniors all love it! Its slower pace means it’s great for older players, while the exciting gameplay keeps younger folks having a blast. So if you’re planning a family trip or a getaway with all generations, vacation rentals with pickleball courts are just the ticket.
• Great for Socializing: Pickleball is all about having fun with friends! Most games are played in doubles, which makes for some team spirit and plenty of interaction. It’s a perfect way for groups staying at vacation rentals to bond and enjoy each other’s company.
• Inclusive Options: What’s even better is that many pickleball courts can be adapted for players with disabilities. Rentals offering accessible courts or adaptive equipment are truly thoughtful choices, making it easy for everyone to join in on the fun!
