Jonathan Markson Mallorca Tennis Centre
Paguera, Mallorca, Spain
Jonathan Markson Tennis runs year-round tennis programs on the island of Mallorca, Spain headed by former Davis Cup player Ali Yenilmez. Participants are divided into small groups according to age and skill level. The tennis is normally in the mornings leaving the afternoons free to explore the beautiful island or laze on the beach. However, enthusiasts can book to play at any time. The weekly prices include accommodation (on the basis of two sharing a room with sea view) and half board as well as 15-hour tennis program.
The club is located in the small coastal town of Peguera, which has mountains on one side, and a white, sandy beach on the other. The Tennis Center Peguera is a five-minute walk from either of the two hotels in the package. It has 15 red-clay courts, two swimming pools, a pro shop and restaurant.

Here's what others have had to say about Jonathan Markson Mallorca Tennis Centre.

"I did not book via Markson but directly with Tennis Academy Mallorca which is based in Paguera 30 minutes from Palma.
The centre runs a regular weekly camp that runs 9-12pm Monday to Friday.(295Euro) When you book you are taking pot luck on the level of the other participants. On my most recent visit my wife who is an improver was not going to play but in fact a number of those booked in were at her level so they had two groups one improvers and another of solid club players. This worked out well but you could be in a mismatched group.
The centre itself has 15 clay courts and the course uses the two courts next to the club house. I must have been here 5 or 6 times in March and May and can only recall one short 30 minute break for rain. The weather at these times of year is ideal for outside tennis.
The course consists of basket drills and a mix of games. The chief instructor Ali Yenilmez is usually on court and ensures that this is a high quality camp.
Paguera is a German resort and has a good range of hotels. I have stayed in the Valentin Reina which is 5 minutes walk from the centre."—J.B., Int., April 2017

"This was the worst tennis vacation I have been on. They DO NOT group people by ability. We had one complete beginer and 2 very poor players in a group of 6. Periods were spent doing nothing just waiting for balls (even feeds)to get over the net. Return of serve drills were impossible. On 2 out of the 5 days when we had an extra court the group was split which improved things. 
No critisism of the tennis instructors. They gave us endless basket drills in an attempt to keep everyone playing but 3 hrs of basket drills gets very tedious if you want to do situational and tactical play.
The head coach was totally uninterested when I complained and said that was how they did it in Mallorca!! I was very disappionted and thought the whole thing was waste of money.
The only plus points are 1) Paguera is a nice little beach resort and 2) The tennis centre itself was lovely."—V.D., Int., May 2011
