Quail Valley Vero Beach Adds 5 Padel Courts in $25M Hub

Vero Beach's padel footprint is about to grow again. Quail Valley Golf & Country Club, one of the Treasure Coast's premier private clubs, has won county site-plan approval for a roughly $25 million racquet complex — and five padel courts sit at the center of it.

Quail Valley's $25M Racquet Complex

The project is Quail Valley's fourth club location, planned for an eight-acre site near the intersection of Indian River Boulevard and 41st Street. Managing partner Kevin Given acquired the parcel for $3.9 million, and the club secured site-plan approval from Indian River County in 2025, with construction permitting following shortly after.

This isn't a bolt-on court or two. It's a purpose-built racquet-and-leisure campus designed to meet surging member demand for padel and pickleball — the kind of investment that signals just how seriously established clubs are now taking the sport.

What's Included

The approved plan packs a lot into eight acres:

• 5 padel courts — outdoor and lighted
• 8 lighted pickleball courts
• 2 indoor squash courts
• 2 bocce courts
• A two-story fitness center with lockers, showers, and a six-lane lap pool
• A central racquets building with food service and terraced viewing seating
• A retail wing with a café, market, salon, and spa
• Golf simulators, an e-sports area, a kids zone, and a playground

The racquets building — flanked by two sections of courts with elevated seating — suggests Quail Valley wants the complex to feel like a social hub, not just a place to book a court.

Why Country Clubs Keep Choosing Padel

Quail Valley is far from alone. Private clubs across Florida are converting underused tennis space and breaking ground on dedicated padel facilities, drawn by the sport's social format, gentle learning curve, and ability to fit four players onto a compact, walled court. We dug into the trend in our guide on why country clubs are adding padel courts in 2026 — and Quail Valley's eight-figure commitment is a textbook example.

For members, the appeal is simple: padel is easy to pick up, hard to put down, and tailor-made for the doubles-driven social culture that clubs like Quail Valley already cultivate.

Vero Beach's Growing Padel Scene

Quail Valley's expansion lands in a market that's already warming up. A few miles away, Boulevard Tennis & Padel Club brought padel to Vero Beach with a well-reviewed outdoor setup that's open to the public.

Timeline: When Will Quail Valley's Padel Courts Open?

Barring construction delays, Quail Valley expects the new complex to be finished and fully available to members by the end of 2027. Because the facility is part of a members-only club, public access isn't part of the current plan — though Vero Beach players who want to play sooner can head to Boulevard today.
