Let’s be real—you could book another all-inclusive resort and spend your vacation on a generic beach, sipping watered-down cocktails.
Or… you could perfect your third-shot drop on the sun-drenched courts of the French Riviera, train with France’s top pickleball player, and cap your nights off with champagne in Monte Carlo.
If that sounds like a fantasy, it’s not.
It’s the reality of Pickle Away’s signature French Riviera pickleball experience—a trip that blends elite coaching, luxury travel, and once-in-a-lifetime cultural immersion.
After a sold-out inaugural trip, it’s back on May 5-10, 2025—and with only two spots left, time is running out.
Small Groups, Big Fun—And Serious Pickleball
This isn’t just a European getaway where you throw a paddle in your carry-on and hope to find a game.
Pickle Away has designed this trip exclusively for 3.25-4.0 level players, keeping it intimate and highly personalized.
With only 12 guests per trip, you'll connect with like-minded travelers who share your love of the game—and a good glass of wine.
You'll be training with a world-class coaching team that will transform your game through structured clinics, match play, and video analysis:
- Brett Noel: 3x National Gold Medalist and 5.0 player
- Théo Platel: France's #1 ranked player (5.5 level)
- Garrett Weinstein: PPR certified coach (4.5 level)
With a 4:1 player-to-coach ratio and 15 hours of personalized instruction, you’ll return home a better player—more confident, more strategic, and more in control of your game.
More Than a Trip—It’s an Investment in Yourself
This isn’t just another vacation—it’s pickleball meets world-class travel. When you’re not on the court, you’ll experience the French Riviera like an insider.
Stay at the historic Hôtel Beau Rivage, where Matisse once lived, steps from Nice’s Old Town and the Mediterranean.
Take a private tour of Monte Carlo’s legendary casino and visit two renowned vineyards in the Bellet Appellation for tastings with stunning coastal views.
Cap it all off with sunset cocktails on the beach and Provençal cuisine that rivals the best in the world.
Train hard, travel well, and return home a better player—with memories to match.
Don’t Just Take Our Word for It…
"What came unexpected was the kindness from every participant. I look back on the shared journey with a very full heart, rich with highlights, stories and joy to last a lifetime." - Barbara B., Richmond, VA
"The private tour of Monte Carlo, the vineyard tasting, the weather—oh mon Dieu! This was an exceptionally well-thought-out experience. I'm just wowed." – Abby R., Oxford, MD
See It For Yourself—And Then Be a Part of It
The views, the courts, the coastline—it's all right there in the photos from last year’s trip. This is what pickleball in paradise looks like.
And this year, there are only TWO spots left for the French Riviera adventure.
Just three things stand between you and the trip of a lifetime:
- Grab the French Riviera Brochure and explore the itinerary.
- Check out last year's trip and get inspired.
- Snag one of the last two spots before they're gone!
Can't Make May? Tuscany Awaits.
Pickle Away is also heading to Tuscany this September, where rolling vineyards, world-class coaching, and gourmet Italian cuisine set the stage for another unforgettable pickleball getaway.
Only three spots remain.
If you're serious about pickleball and serious about a next-level vacation, this is it.
