Mallorca/Paris Tennis Vacation

The only photo I WISH I could send you would have been the “Mother/Daughter 6” from Burns but we were having too much fun to snap a photo! Looking forward to another camp in a couple years in Palm Springs area. Gotta get my knee back in shape (MRI Monday) and my husband is hoping to get his second knee replacement Sept/Oct.  Then back to the courts! Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to play on clay in Mallorca!  I loved staying in the resort where it was so easy to chat with other players at meals and around the pool.!

Hi Steve, I had an amazing time- definitely a trip of a lifetime!
Thank you!

‍

I have done the Steve Vaughan Wild West camps for four decades. I can honestly say that the 2024 Mallorca Camp was put on by the finest group of instructors Steve has ever assembled.  And there has been some really good ones over the years!

Michelle and I had a great time. The instructors were all knowledgeable and personable, and the side trips were worth the effort!

We just wanted to send a quick note to thank you for the wonderful time we had in Mallorca!. The tennis was fun, the pros were great. The tours were great, but most of all the people we met were so much fun. Georganne and I really enjoyed Rafa’s academy. Thanks Again!

I had a great time with Wild West Tennis! I went to this camp only knowing one person, and I came home with a number of new tennis friends. The accommodations and courts were great. I loved the itinerary and the coaches. Steve and Dorothy were warm and helpful. I hope to return in the future!

What do you call playing Tennis every day in Mallorca, Spain, dinner with friends every night, laughter, awe, sharing the experience of playing at Rafa Nadal’s Academy, the same clay courts that one of the best ever trains? What do you call waking up each day and not having to worry about anything but enjoying every moment, tennis, great coaches, good food, good times? You call it a Steve Vaughan’s Wild West Tennis camp! We had the most wonderful time, met the best people, enjoyed a beautiful island, we are better tennis players and people because of this wondrous experience. Our time in London was magnificent, a once in a lifetime experience. Going to Wimbledon was incredible and our trips with the group around London, and Dinner on the Thames, were amazing. Everything was planned and delivered by Steve, Dorothy and their team. Thank you so much! We can't wait for the next one!

Hi Steve, I’m still relishing the wonderful time we had in beautiful Mallorca. I loved every minute of it!

This is the first time my wife, Vicki, and I have ever attended an organized group vacation/tennis camp. We both had a wonderful time. We got to enjoy playing tennis with many new friends, while also working to improve our tennis skills! We had time to explore the island of Mallorca, and even attended the Rafa Nadal Tennis Academy for one day! We would highly recommend this camp to anyone. I would gladly talk to anyone that is interested in attending a future camp!

“Perhaps calling this trip a “tennis camp' does not do it justice. The trip with Wild West Tennis is a tennis holiday with nice accommodations, great people, great coaches and opportunities I would not have found on my own. The chance to tour and play at the Nadal Academy is one I could not have arranged on my own. Steve and Dorothy do things with class! Everyone was super nice! I highly recommend Wild West Tennis.”

“Dear Steve and Dorothy,

Thank you for the great trip! Your kindness, organizational abilities, your sense of fun, and your resourcefulness made the trip exceed any and expectations I might have had. I look forward to more Wild West adventures! Wonderful group of people to share tennis with – you two attract a like minded crowd.”

“The Mallorca trip was amazing! I loved trying out the clay courts for the first time and was most impressed when I dinked a ball just over the net and the next thing I know is Matt is sliding toward me

from behind the baseline, got the ball, and hit a winner! The pros were all great! I loved the day at the Rafael Nadal Academy and the chance to see his new house and yacht in nearby Porto Cristo. Peggy and I went back to Porto Cristo walked up to his house. That was exciting too!

We had a great experience in the queue at Wimbledon and enjoyed all of the matches we saw. We couldn't afford the tickets at Centre Court but did get a chance to get onto the grounds and watch Rafa's speech and to watch CoCo Gauff play on Centre court. We did go back to Wimbledon with Susan and Esther. Overall, it was an incredible trip! It was good to see that so many come back to Wild West Tennis.

Clearly you have made memories with many people. Maybe someday I'll join you again!

While we were disappointed with our tennis certificates, since they were more of the “most improved category rather than a specific shot” we did appreciate your hard work to make sure everyone had a good time. I know there are many “behind the scenes” things that you were doing that we weren't aware of. You're very kindhearted people and I am forever thankful to be part of this tennis trip.”

“Mallorca/Wimbledon 2022 what a wonderful experience! Thank you so much for everything you guys went above and beyond. Until next time....”

“Great tour! Thank you so much for organizing this great day! Joan and Rafael were wonderful!”

“The Island tour was amazing! So glad I went!”

“We have been to over 20 of Steve Vaughan's Wild WestTennis Camps, so we arrived in Mallorca with lots of anticipation for ourWild West Tennis Camp.  On day three wewent to the Nadal Academy.  Nothing hadprepared us for the welcoming we received from their staff.  Lunch turned out to be a fabulous 4 coursemeal, with spanish red and white wines. That was above all of our expectations. Henry gave it a A++. After that, we toured the Museum which had lots offun games,and displayed all those trophies and achievements of Rafa. Thenwithout expectations, we had an opportunity to play on the new Nadal Academyclay courts. Not just anybody gets to play on them.Not sure how Steve Vaughanpulled that one off!  And of course therewas shopping in the Nadal store.  TheNadal Academy is a world class enterprise, so glad that it was part of the WildWest Mallorca Adventure.  A veryexceptional, fun filled day, with lots of smiles and laughter.”
