GUEST REVIEWS
JOHN & KAREN
NEW YORK CITY
MAY 2026 Trip
Having been to a number of pickleball tours and camps, I can honestly say that Ultimate Greece Pickleball Vacation is the best!
What makes this trip truly exceptional isn't just the fascinating Greek history, the breathtaking islands, or the luxurious resorts - it's the warmth, friendship, and infectious enthusiasm for pickleball that our hosts, Christie and Niko, bring to every moment of the experience.
Although they live in Florida, Niko is 110% Greek. Having spent his summers growing up on the Greek islands, he shares an authentic, insider's perspective on Greece that goes far beyond the typical tourist experience.
Some of my favorite memories include staying at the stunning all-inclusive Lyttos Mare Resort in Crete, whose motto is "Living in the Water." With its beautiful water features, four large swimming pools, and four brand-new pickleball courts, it was the perfect combination of luxury and sports. Another highlight was when Christie and Niko invited us to dinner at one of their favorite local restaurants in Santorini and then took us to the perfect spot to watch the sunset. Experiences like that made us feel less like tourists and more like welcomed guests.
The capstone of our tour was a sunset catamaran cruise departing from Santorini's Old Harbor. We enjoyed three swim stops in the crystal-clear Aegean Sea, a delicious grilled dinner onboard, and dancing on the back deck as the sun sank below the horizon. It was the perfect ending to an unforgettable trip.
While Christie and Niko are outstanding 4.5+ players themselves (Christine is an absolute force on the court!), they also brought along top teaching professional Brett Noel, ensuring that players of all skill levels had the opportunity to improve their game.
If you're looking for an unforgettable vacation that combines world-class pickleball, authentic Greek history and culture, spectacular scenery, and wonderful new friendships, I can't recommend Ultimate Greece Pickleball Vacation highly enough.
