Here's what others have had to say about JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa.
-
"Three days of tennis during a recent seven night stay at the Marriott Desert Springs; Burwash program there was exceptional, staff top-notch. Shea Donahue was professional and efficient in scheduling the lessons, and our teaching staff of Zack Juhre, Ben Gottenberg, and Jon Koenigs were top-notch, hardworking, and engaged in every aspect.
Special kudos to Roger Darrohn who worked with my fifteen year old daughter for four hours that week, teaching her strokes and strategy and keeping her engaged with great sociability and humor.
I met Jim Leupold at the end of my stay and it was clear why his staff is so devoted to working for him and this excellent facility.
We did not have a chance to work with Hanane Toumi, but I have no reason to doubt that he is comparable to his outstanding peers.
All three surfaces were available during our stay, and the grass looked like Wimbledon on Day 1.
I've been playing tennis since 1979, and this facility and staff are as good as it gets."—K.O., Adv., July 2020

"I rounded up 20 of our local club members who wanted to experience playing on clay and grass. After setting things up with JIM LEUPOLD, we came out on a Saturday morning and had a wonderful time. Mid-day we took a break to enjoy the highly entertaining show/clinic that they put on for our amusement and edification. It was clear that Jim and his staff are excellent trainers. I would very much like to participate in some of their clinics in the future. Overall we had a great experience and are looking forward to coming back again soon."—S.J., Int., February 2020

"It was great returning to the PBI Tennis Program at the JW Marriott this year. Jim, Dan and Dora took good care of us as they always do. While I was recovering from recent knee replacement surgery and took several 30 minute lessons to help me back on the court, my wife was able to take the morning clinics and brush up on various parts of her game. I strongly recommend the program for anyone looking for good instruction, at any level, from really nice people."—J.W., Int., February 2020

"I participated in Jim's February 2020 tennis camp. He and his staff created a fun and informative camp. I really enjoyed the chance to play on grass and clay in addition to the usual hard court play. I received good instruction and individual tips to help my game."—D.K., Int., February 2020

"We had a wonderful week of tennis. My husband and I play at different levels, and we were very happy to find clinics and lessons that suited us both. The tennis staff (Jim, Zack, and Shea) were all enthusiastic, personable, and great at instruction. We stayed in the Marriott Vacation Club adjacent to the tennis facility, which was much better for us than the big hotel. But we did enjoy two different restaurants in the JW Marriott. We will be back!"—S.M., Adv., January 2020

"The clinics are excellent as is the teaching staff. I have always gotten something to enhance my tennis games from a clinic at this tennis facility."—S.M., Adv. Int., January 2020

"This is the second time that I've gone to JW Marriott Desert Springs and it did not disappoint. We chose the location for the tennis . . . the facility and head pro Jim Leupold are outstanding. The tennis management company is PBI and their whole philosophy makes for consistent teaching and individualized attention. The highlight for me was the wonderful pro that I worked with for three days -- Shea Donahue. She was absolutely fantastic and made my workouts so much fun. Really great experience!"—L.G., December 2019

"We are a family of four with two teenagers. We all just recently took-up the sport of tennis. Jim, Shea, Zack, and the entire team at this PBI club where great with their approaching us at our current skill level and helping us advance. We learned very much over our four-day stay and had so much fun. The team was patient, and consistently upbeat and positive. This is a great destination and experience for tennis enthusiasts of every age and every skill level."—S.L., Beg., December 2019

"I can't say enough from my experience at the JW Marriot Desert Springs Tennis Program.
Jim Leupold and his staff were simply AMAZING!
I have only been playing 2 years and I learned so much this past week.
I play with 3 different leagues and I know after this week I have some amazing new tools to play better tennis.
The staff was Professional, Friendly, and Effective in teaching new skills.
Thank you so much Jim, Shay, and Zach.
I will be back! Jenn Fails"—J.F., Low Int., December 2019
