If you were honored enough to attend, you could have hit with the “King of Clay”.

The resorts are located just North of Cancun, about 20 minutes and the Tennis Center was built in conjunction with Grand Palladium Costa Mujeres and the adults-only TRS Coral, a member of the Leading Hotels of the World Collection.

TRS Coral offers an all-inclusive package that included butler service, top-shelf liquor in the room and at every hotel bar and access to the hydrotherapy areas of the Zentropia Spa and Wellness Center.

A Palladium Resort

When you stay at TRS Coral you also have access to the many restaurants and bars at the Grand Palladium property. While the two hotels are adjoining and both belong to the Palladium Hotel Group, they have separate check-in areas. The TRS Coral offers additional amenities, such as butlers and 24-hour room service. Both hotels have access to the village area, home to a number of a la carte restaurants as well as a 24-hour sports bar, conference center, amphitheater and a chapel.

Throughout the properties, you will notice unique design features, such as living walls several stories high and a canal connecting the hotels and the village. (Guests can take a water taxi from one area to another.)

In addition, guests at both hotels have access to the tennis center, where they can reserve complimentary court time or participate in classes and clinics conducted by the resident tennis pros.

The facility, which consists of eight clay tennis courts, a soccer field and a paddle tennis court, is Nadal’s first tennis center outside of his native home of Mallorca. At the inauguration, Nadal spoke of the importance of working in conjunction with someone he trusted — fellow Spaniard Matutes Prats — in opening his first facility outside of Spain.

SPA TIME

While you are there, make sure to try the variety of restaurants and bars,  and catch dinner and a fun show at the Chic Cabaret & Restaurant. But don’t forget to hit up the   Zentropia Spa. Enjoy a relaxing massage in one of the 20 therapy rooms, or enjoy the feeling of complete solitude in the hydrotherapy pool. There are several other treatments to choose, with sauna, steam room, hot and cold Jacuzzies and an ice- room. The Spa is more than 50,000 square feet, yet, you won’t feel crowded, and you can easily find a whirlpool or hydromassage corner of the pool all to yourself. When your through there, head to Healthy Habits, and enjoy the infinity pool with some fresh juice or a healthy snack before hitting the courts or the pool again The Resorts offer a number of popular excursions, including a catamaran trip to Isla Mujeres, a snorkeling trip to Isla Contoy and daytrips to Chichen Itza or the Xcaret ecopark.
