Sarasota, FL – SRQ

Great place to play and the local players were GREAT!

Dill Dinkers owners and staff are great and accommodating. The environment is friendly and welcoming. I would recommend pickleball players from all levels to come visit and enjoy the indoor courts.

It was a fun round robin night. Wonderful laughing and meeting great folks.

Great place with great people. Can’t beat indoor pickleball !! Many opportunities to choose from. Open play, leagues and lessons for all levels.

I just had the pleasure of playing at the facility for the first time today and can’t say enough good things. I visited for a drop in 2 hour social play and met some really great people and had a wonderful time playing with them. The staff was very helpful in getting me setup and showing me around the facility which was sparkling clean and beautiful. Playing in the air conditioning is such a treat compared to playing outside (especially in the Florida summers!) and I will absolutely be back again to play. Highly recommend!!

This place is perfect for pickleball players of all levels. The courts are excellent, the facility is clean and well organized, and the atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming. The staff is helpful, professional, and really makes you feel part of the pickleball community. It’s a great place to improve your game, meet great people, and have a lot of fun. Definitely one of my favorite places to play — highly recommended!”

Love this place. Players and owners are A++++

I was playing Pickleball this morning with three other ladies outdoors and in the Florida heat. We had to stop because one of the ladies almost collapsed. We were ready to call 911, but there were medical professionals on nearby courts that came over to help. She is OK, but I kept thinking I wish I was at Dill Dinkers. Air condition. No sunscreen. Fun people. Great competition. My lady Friends will be joining me later indoors at Dill Dinkers.

Saturday Morning Open Play @ 8 to 11 am. Great time and fun people to play with!

I've been a regular at Dill Dinkers Sarasota for well over a year now, and my opinion hasn't changed—it's still my favorite place to play pickleball. The facility is clean, air-conditioned, and well run. The staff does a good job, the community is welcoming, and there are opportunities for open play, leagues, clinics, and tournaments for players of all skill levels. One thing I really appreciate is that the club continues to invest in new programs and events while maintaining a fun, friendly atmosphere. If you're looking for the best indoor pickleball facility in the Sarasota/Bradenton area, I highly recommend Dill Dinkers.

The facility is top notch! Courts are in great shape, the ac is set to a good temp and the owners are super sweet. I play here 1-2 times a week and regularly in their monthly MLP style tournaments. I highly recommend checking the place out!

Thank you very much for helping to get us matches at 2:00 in the afternoon and a special thanks to the owner for filling in when we needed a fourth. Thank you so much for the hospitality that Dill Dinkers has shown us

My husband and I took her first lesson today with the owner. She was wonderful. The place is clean and very reasonable to rent or just take lessons I definitely recommend it for either first time or experience players.

Nice venue. Expensive drop in.

Love this place!!!! Great people, great price, great play!!! 3 P's of pickleball.

I started playing at Dill Dinkers because I hate sun, wind, heat, bugs, and waiting for courts. The experience at DD has been so much more than I expected. In terms of the facility, the courts are soft and kind to my old knees. I love the way the courts are fenced off, so there is much less ball intrusion from other courts. Free use of the ball machine for members is a blast. Where else can you get a drilling partner that is never tired or demanding? In terms of programs, there is open play, a variety of classes, 7 week camps, skill development activities for all levels, leagues, MLP tournaments, private lessons, court rentals, and after school activities for kids. There are open play slots all day, organized by skill level, so you can always find someone to play with at the time of day that works in your schedule. I like this better than the negotiation involved when trying to get my friends to agree on a day and time to play on public courts. Ugh. Dill Dinkers classes are amazing and advance your game much more quickly than just doing rec play. There are always multiple ladder leagues going on that are very popular and fill quickly. At Dill Dinkers, playing pickleball turns into an addiction. You just can't get enough play. Soon I expect DD to put up cots for those who don't want to go home. Dill Dinkers is an extremely friendly place. I read the reviews of the complainers about unfriendliness and think "what planet do these people live on?" They are probably the grumps. The staff try to remember your name and greet everyone personally. To me, Dill Dinkers has the Cheers vibe. People are always happy to see you. If you play at Dill Dinkers, within a couple of months you will have more new friends than you know what to do with. There are pot luck social activities on Friday and Saturday nights. These events have fun themes like Super Bowl, karaoke, or line dancing. Some of these socials involve free alcohol provided by sponsors. Not surprisingly, those are very well attended. DD has the best play list of anywhere. Great music really adds a lot to the playing experience. Some days I ask myself, "am I here for the socializing and the music, or am I here to play?" The answer is yes.

Best indoor pickleball spot in town! The climate control is a game-changer and the lighting is perfect. The courts are pristine and the staff is super welcoming. Highly recommend for both open play and competitive matches.

Did a four hour PICKLEBALL obsession camp. Really nice facility as well as the people that work there I will be going back
