Rocalla Luxury Padel Hideaway
When to go
May - Oct
Ideal duration
5 nights
Away from the world, Formentera speaks at a quieter volume, with padel folded into its own natural rhythm.
This luxury escape centres on Rocalla, Playtomic co-founder Pablo Carro's retreat on Formentera's southern coast, where three secluded courts sit steps from the water, and everything bends around you: ease into play, take on coaching, enjoy a mini tournament. It is as much about switching off as switching on, with space to rest, reset and stay close to nature between sessions. Beyond the court, the island slows things down even more. Cycle dusty coastal paths, swim hidden coves, settle in for paella at Beso Beach, or let an evening disappear over good wine beneath an open sky. To rest your head, settle into one of a small handful of low-key luxury stays close by. This is Formentera, played the SET way.

About this trip
No Schedule, Just Rhythm
Play here happens on your terms, not the clock's. Mornings usually open with yoga and padel before the heat settles in, and evenings close the same way once the light softens. In between, cycle the island's flat coastal paths, wander into Sant Francesc or head for Ses Platgetes and its quieter stretch of sand. There is no fixed itinerary to follow, just movement, nature and whatever the rest of the day brings.
Nowhere to Be
Formentera rewards those who seek its quietest corners. Take a boat out for the afternoon, and Espalmador is often the first stop: no restaurants, no bars, just white sand and clear water. From there, follow the coast towards Caló des Mort, a sheltered cove beneath rugged cliffs. Lunch might mean coming ashore at Beso Beach for paella, then drifting back out before the crowds catch up. Nothing needs organising beyond deciding when to turn back.
As the Light Goes
As the sun drops, it might still catch you on Rocalla's clay-coloured courts. Once play wraps up, evenings settle into their own rhythm: sushi and Mediterranean plates at 10punto7, pizza and music at Chezz Gerdi, or a simple BBQ back at your stay as the sky changes colour. On Wednesdays and Sundays, La Mola's craft market offers another reason to stay out a little longer. Each stay option carries its own character too: rooftop views from one, solar-lit eco touches from another, and rooms built to face the sea, land, or sky from a third. The island settles early, and eventually, so does everyone in it.

Every SET escape begins as inspiration. From where you play to how you travel, we shape it around you. Share your vision, and we’ll design the perfect padel journey for you.
Where You'll Play & Stay
Rocalla
On Formentera's Es Mal Pas coast, Rocalla is three padel courts set steps from a cove, with a Mediterranean restaurant right beside the club. It feels more like a full reset than a serious game, with sport feeding into sea dips, shared meals, and quiet moments between sessions. Wellness runs alongside the padel programme, so a booking can turn into a proper stay-and-play day.
Dunas de Formentera
Set along Playa Migjorn, Dunas de Formentera runs on solar power and eco-conscious materials, with local artisan partnerships built into how the hotel operates. Meals move between Marisca and the Solstice Beach Bar, and days off the court lean into the island itself: kayaking hidden coves, cycling through pine forest, guided snorkelling in clear water. It suits travellers who want the island's wild side alongside comfort.
View HotelTeranka
Also on Playa Migjorn, Teranka is a 35-room rustic hideaway across pine forest and dune, each themed to sea, land or sky rather than styled identically. Meals are Mediterranean and communal, taken at shared tables, and the wellbeing programme pairs older rituals with newer techniques. It's the pick for guests who want Formentera's undeveloped character to show in the room, not just the view.
View HotelFive Flowers Formentera
Formentera's first five-star hotel, Five Flowers is part of The Meliá Collection, with 79 rooms and suites near Es Pujols and the island's best beaches. The rooftop pool takes in panoramic island views, backed by dining and wellness facilities built for a more polished stay. It's the option for travellers who want full luxury on an island better known for its barefoot pace.

Trip Designer's Notes
Start or finish with a few nights in Ibiza for an easy change of pace. Keep Formentera slow and restorative, then add Ibiza for sharper dining, nightlife, beach clubs and a livelier contrast.
Personalise Your TripThings to Know
How your journey comes together
SET Away operates on an enquiry-led, bespoke model. You won't book instantly online. Instead, we begin by understanding you, your level of play, how you like to travel, and what you want from the experience. From there, we design a tailored itinerary that brings together the right destination, accommodation, and padel programme. Once confirmed, your booking is secured with a deposit, typically from 20%, with the remaining balance due closer to departure.
Pricing & what's included
Each escape is individually priced depending on your group size, choice of hotel, the level of padel experience, and other activities. Prices are usually quoted per person based on two sharing, and can be adjusted accordingly. Flights are not always included by default, but can be arranged as part of your package. As everything is built to order, pricing may vary based on availability at the time of booking.
Amendments & cancellations
Changes can be made after booking, subject to timing and supplier flexibility. Amendments may incur additional costs, particularly closer to departure, where changes may be treated as cancellations. Deposits are non-refundable, and cancellation charges increase as you approach your travel date. Some elements of your trip may be subject to stricter supplier-specific policies. For hotel-only bookings, the hotel's own terms and conditions apply. For itinerary and travel package bookings, 360 Private Travel's terms and conditions apply.
The padel experience
Padel sits at the core of every escape. We work with a select group of the world's leading clubs and coaches to deliver what we consider to be some of the finest padel experiences available. Expect a well-balanced mix of coaching, structured match play, and social formats, all tailored to your group and level. Each programme is carefully designed to ensure time on court is both high quality and highly enjoyable.
Accommodation
Every stay is elevated through our partnership with 360 Private Travel, unlocking access to an unrivalled network of over 4,000 luxury hotels and resorts worldwide. As a Virtuoso member agency and Forbes Travel Guide-endorsed partner, we are able to secure exclusive benefits for our clients, including complimentary upgrades, daily breakfast, hotel credits, and priority access through the world's leading hoteliers. Each property is carefully selected to complement your destination and overall experience, ensuring consistency in service, setting, and quality throughout your journey. Room categories and upgrades remain subject to availability at the time of booking.
Optional experiences
Beyond padel, we can incorporate additional elements such as yacht charters, wellness treatments, or cultural activities. These are arranged through trusted partners and can be added to enhance your trip. Availability and pricing will depend on the destination and timing.
Insurance
We strongly recommend that all travellers take out comprehensive travel insurance, covering cancellation, medical needs, and travel disruption. In addition, all padel partners we work with are vetted and required to hold appropriate insurance, including participant injury coverage, ensuring a safe and professionally managed on-court experience.
Travel essentials
You are responsible for ensuring that passports, visas, and any health requirements are in place ahead of travel. You should also adhere to all confirmed timings and travel details. Standards and regulations may differ from your home country depending on the destination.
On-trip support
You will have access to support throughout your trip. If anything requires attention while you are travelling, it is important to raise it at the time so it can be addressed quickly and effectively.
