Sunset Padel, founded by Gianluca Vacchi and his partners Chris Paciello, Michael Stern, and Rafi Gibly, is Miami Beach's first members-only indoor padel club, poised to elevate the sport's presence in the city. Located in the vibrant Sunset Harbour neighborhood, a hotspot for health and fitness enthusiasts, Sunset Padel blends state-of-the-art sporting facilities with a chic, social environment.
Elite Sports Facilities Meet Cutting-Edge Design
Sunset Padel sets itself apart with its visionary approach to the game, featuring four world-class indoor courts designed by Padel Galis, the renowned Spanish company. The courts are surfaced with Mondo Turf, an advanced material that offers superior biomechanical support for joints and ligaments, ensuring a soft yet high-performing playing surface. With high ceilings and non-blinding linear lighting, the club creates optimal conditions for play, regardless of the weather.
To support players' fitness and recovery, the facility includes a dedicated stretch-out area, equipped with modern fitness technology and overseen by a personal stretch specialist. This, along with a concierge service, ensures members have access to top-tier care both on and off the court.
Led by a World-Class Coach
Sunset Padel’s sports program is directed by Pablo Ibáñez, a former World Padel Tour player who has played a significant role in shaping top-tier padel clubs. Under his guidance, Sunset Padel offers a comprehensive sports program designed to cater to players of all levels.
Sophisticated Design with a Social Touch
The club’s interior design sets a new standard for padel facilities, combining dark courts, terracotta accents, and luxurious wood paneling. Crafted with high-quality materials, the space evokes the atmosphere of an exclusive members-only club, offering a blend of elegance and functionality. These design choices create a welcoming social ambiance that encourages community building among members.
Luxury Amenities for a Complete Experience
Beyond its exceptional courts, Sunset Padel offers a range of luxurious amenities, including spa-inspired changing rooms, a curated pro shop featuring premium gear from Padel Nuestro, and a juice bar offering health-conscious refreshments. Every detail has been carefully designed to meet the expectations of its members, offering a perfect balance of sport and luxury.
