Cancellation Policy
"I had a wonderful experience during my stay at Paguera Tennis Academy. The welcome was warm and the coaches were very friendly and skilled so I learned a lot of tennis during my training sessions. I have already recommended the trip to my tennis friends at the local tennis club at home and I know for sure that several of them are planing the same trip already! Thank you for your efforts and excellent support!"
