• "Our third year in a row visiting kiawah with the family! And already booked for 2024! Tennis was a family favorite with my kids at tennis camp and the adults doing tennis clinic and pickle ball. I loved all the stroke clinics. In one week I really improved both my forehand and Backhand. The pros were wonderful and always a bonus having Roy Barth on the court doing personal tips. Altogether a great family experience and I came away with improvements in my tennis game!"—L.C., Low Int., July 2023

• "Our 12th visit to Kiawah. Outstanding as usual. Great tennis instruction with best pro ever David Boyd. Great courts. Beach and dining wonderful as usual. See you next summer!"—Z.A., Adv. Int., July 2023

• "The Roy Barth Tennis Center at Kiawah Island Golf Resort is EXCEPTIONAL!!! We had the pleasure of meeting Roy Barth, the Emeritus Tennis Director, as he is usually on the courts during the daily clinics and drill sessions offering additional valuable tennis tips and techniques that when implemented will raise the level of any tennis player. The clinics were small which provided an intimate atmosphere with excellent personal instruction. The instruction by David Boyd, the Head Tennis Pro was SUPERB. His attention to detail and desire to raise the playing level of every tennis participant is extraordinary. We took several stroke clinics and drill sessions most every day during our two week stay. Roy, and the Pros who taught our clinics, David, Langdon, and Mike, have developed a very friendly and enjoyable tennis atmosphere. The quality of tennis instruction is unparalleled. Not only was Roy extremely encouraging and focused on each player, but he's also written a fascinating book, Point of Impact, about his amazing pro tennis career, which includes his valuable tennis tips, and how he applied them to not only his tennis career, but also to his life experiences. He included many valuable life lessons that would benefit every reader. The tennis center facilities are absolutely beautiful, very well maintained, and user friendly. We felt like we were warmly welcomed into the Kiawah/Barth tennis family. Playing on the Har-Tru courts was delightful, and even when it was drizzling, David was able to move us to another court that was not affected by the light rain so we could complete our clinic. The Pro shop had high quality merchandise and a wonderful selection. We also learned to play Pickleball from Alex who was very encouraging and enthusiastic about this very popular sport. We participated in a 2-hour Open Play session which had a round robin type play with rotating partners, opponents, music, and a very FUN atmosphere! It was the perfect introduction to Pickleball for our family! We have been visiting Kiawah for 20+ years, and it is the most FANTASTIC beach resort destination. We bike nearly every day, often 10 miles to Ocean Course and back on the amazing bike trails that cover the whole island. The restaurants provide delicious fine dining, and we've never been disappointed. And, the golf course experience is also spectacular - the Ocean Course is phenomenal. Kiawah is a FIVE STAR Resort and our FAVORITE beach destination. We look forward to our visits year after year!! C.S. May 2023"—C.S., Adv., June 2023

• "We have been vacationing on Kiawah island for over 35 years. Our family has enjoyed the ten is programs and more recently the pickleball program. I take a men's group to Kiawah for a tennis weekend every other year and have had great instruction from David Boyd and Jonathan Barth. What we have found about the instruction on Kiawah is the consistency of their pros and their approach to teaching, I recently the island and was excited to see the construction of the six new dedicated pickleball courts with lighting, We are looking forward to returning for the tennis and pickleball events in the future,."—G.M., Adv.
