Where You'll Find Pickleball Courts at Walt Disney World Resort

Pickleball, the paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis, has been rapidly gaining momentum in recent years. With its easy-to-learn rules, pickleball has become the go-to activity for people of all ages and skill levels.

If you’re new to the game or a pro, you can play pickleball at select Walt Disney World Resort hotels.

Walt Disney World Resort began converting some of its tennis courts over to pickleball courts a few years ago to accommodate the growing interest in this sport.

Here’s where you can find them.

Pickleball Courts are found at the following locations:

Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas - Kidani Village — 2 hard courts located near the shuffleboard and basketball courts; check out tennis and pickleball equipment at Community Hall.

Disney's Boardwalk Inn and Villas — 2 courts adjacent to Community Hall; check out tennis and pickleball equipment at Community Hall.

The Campsites and Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort – 2 hard courts located at the Meadow Recreation Area; check out tennis and pickleball equipment at the Bike Barn.

Disney's Contemporary Resort — 1 court adjacent to Bay Lake Tower; check out tennis and pickleball equipment at Community Hall or Boat Nook Marina.

Disney's Old Key West Resort — 2 courts near the main pool and one (1) on Old Turtle Pond Road; check out tennis and pickleball equipment at Conch Flats Community Hall or Hank’s Rent ‘N Return.

Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa — 2 clay courts located in the sports courts area; check out equipment at Community Hall or Horsing Around Rentals

Disney's Yacht and Beach Club Resorts — 1 court located near Admiral Pool; check out tennis and pickleball equipment at the Disney Yacht Club Front Desk.

Available to any Walt Disney World hotel guest

Any Guest of a Walt Disney World Resort hotel may access the tennis courts, and equipment can be obtained using your MagicBand or a valid Resort ID.

Courts are available on a first-come, first-served basis and are generally accessible from 9:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Sneakers or tennis shoes are required to play.

Cost to play pickleball at Disney World

Disney Vacation Club members may check out equipment free of charge; for all other Guests, a small fee applies.

The fee only applies to the rental, not the use of the court. You’re allowed to bring your equipment to avoid the rental fee.
