What is Luxury Pickle Travel?
Luxury Pickle Travel creates curated, hosted pickleball experiences that blend elite play, exceptional stays, shared meals, and iconic destinations — designed for small groups who value both the game and the journey.
How is this different from a camp or clinic?
This is not a camp or clinic.
Our experiences focus on curated play, elevated accommodations, shared meals, and meaningful time with the host and fellow guests — prioritizing connection and quality over drills or competition.
Who hosts the experiences?
Experiences are hosted and co-created with Andrei Daescu, who is actively involved throughout the experience. This is a hosted experience — not a one-day appearance or endorsement.
Where do the trips take place?
Experiences take place in iconic global destinations selected for exceptional play environments and elevated stays. Initial destinations include Costa Rica, Italy, and Vietnam, with more added over time.
When do the trips take place?
Trips are scheduled throughout the year by season and destination. A limited number of experiences are offered annually, with dates shared privately through Founding Guest Access.
How many guests are on each trip?
Each experience is intentionally limited to small groups, typically 8 couples, creating balanced play, meaningful interaction, and a relaxed social dynamic.
Who are these experiences designed for?
These experiences are designed for pickleball players and couples who value quality, connection, and curated travel. It’s less about ratings and more about fit and mindset.
Do I need to be a certain skill level?
No specific rating is required. Groups are thoughtfully curated to ensure compatible play levels and an enjoyable experience for everyone.
What’s included?
Each experience is curated end-to-end and typically includes hosted pickleball experiences, premium accommodations, shared dining and social moments, and on-site support. Full details are shared with invited guests.
How much do the trips cost?
Pricing is shared privately with invited guests once full trip details are released.
How do I reserve a spot?
We do not take public bookings. Guests are invited through Founding Guest Access and receive full trip details, pricing, and reservation terms before confirming.
Do you arrange flights?
