From the nearest airport, Málaga, you can reach the Hofsaess Academy in 60 kilometers and a drive of just under an hour. Klaus Hofsaess is known to all tennis fans as Steffi Graf's long-time coach and national coach of the German Fed Cup team. He is an absolute coaching legend and, together with his wife Sonja, fulfilled his dream of opening a tennis academy over 30 years ago. And all this in a wonderful spot near Marbella, where there is sun almost all year round. A small and fine academy awaits you all year round with individual training and very personal support. A slightly different tennis holiday in the Spanish sun!
The Hofsaess Tennis Academy is nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Blanca about 16 kilometers east of Marbella on the Costa del Sol. It's not for nothing that the Academy is nicknamed the "Tennis Mountain" . The journey from the sea at Eliviria takes you up a few meters and curves before you reach the impressive complex. But every meter and every curve is worth it, because a truly unique location and view . In addition to the tennis courts, the Mediterranean-style complex offers you overnight accommodation in a small apartment and villa complex. Everything is right next to each other and surrounded by palm trees and lots of greenery.
The Academy was founded and built in 1984 Over the many years, many tournament players and famous personalities from politics, business, film and television have trained and played tennis on this facility. But recreational players also feel right at home here. Because everyone is simply thrilled by the family atmosphere and the warm and welcoming nature of the hosts and their team.
There are various apartments and villas , where you won't miss anything. Bright, comfortably furnished, they offer you at least two bedrooms, a spacious living area with kitchen and open fireplace as well as panoramic windows that lead to the terrace with a breathtaking view of the sea and the Sierra Blanca. Depending on your holiday taste, you can be completely self-sufficient in the apartments and villas - the kitchens are well equipped. You can choose from a total of eight apartments and, if you wish, two villas (even with your own pool and one with five bedrooms).
The centerpiece and general meeting place of the Academy is definitely the clubhouse . Outside with a beautiful terrace where you can enjoy Lounges Café In the clubhouse itself you simply won't be able to stop being amazed. The walls almost resemble a tennis museum . Anyone who has had a few years of tennis under their belt will find one well-known tennis star name after another. Photos and personal dedications will captivate you for many an hour. You can also eat in the clubhouse at any time when the temperatures are cooler. Everything is very comfortably furnished.
You play and train on a total of 9 beautifully located tennis courts. Of these, 4 are green clay courts and 5 are hard courts , two of which are floodlit. In addition to the former national coach Klaus Hofsaess, you have various first-class trainers at your disposal. From intensive performance training for ambitious kids and young people , there are training options for all levels of play at varying intensities . Training generally takes place in small groups of 2-4 players so that the academy's quality standards can be met. Of course, there is also individual technique and tactics training, match training and match analysis.
Performance-oriented young people can live in the academy all year round and train intensively. A huge plus point: the German School Málaga is right next to the Academy. The teens can go to school there and train directly before or after. The boarding students live together in the academy like an extended family and are warmly looked after by the Hofsaess couple. The best conditions for making progress both athletically and personally!
Very important to know: no matter how old, how good and how ambitious you are: your tennis training can be tailored to your individual needs. A big plus that is not only promised, but also implemented.

saltwater pool at the clubhouse where you can refresh yourself and swim a length or two. Beautiful loungers with a dream view of the sea are available for relaxation.

Of course, you'll have significantly more vacation if you eat breakfast at the Academy and book half or full board. We also think it's great that you can decide every day whether you just want to book breakfast, half board or full board. There is predominantly Mediterranean cuisine with pasta, pizza and salads. But of course you can also look forward to a traditional paella or an Iberian pork.
In no time you'll be in Marbella , the city of the rich and beautiful. Be sure to visit the Puerto Banús marina , where you can marvel at the chic boutiques, bars and luxury yachts.
