Jakarta

We list eight pickleball venues in Jakarta. South Jakarta has Vata Courts Kemang, HOP - House Of Pain in Cipete and Athletiqs Airdome in Karet, Setiabudi, and Central Jakarta has the rooftop Ashley Pickleball in Menteng. North Jakarta has Homeground Signature Pluit, Olympus Prime Sports Center in Bandengan, Penjaringan, and Ancol Tennis Warehouse, while Royal Court Palmerah serves the west around Palmerah and Kebon Jeruk.

Most venues are sports centres with 2 to 4 courts. HOP, Homeground Signature Pluit, Ancol Tennis Warehouse, Athletiqs Airdome and Royal Court Palmerah have indoor courts, while Vata Courts Kemang, Olympus Prime and Ashley Pickleball are outdoors. Court hire is similar across the city at Rp120,000 to Rp200,000 per court per hour: Rp120,000 at Homeground, Rp132,000 at Ancol Tennis Warehouse, Rp150,000 at Vata, Olympus Prime, HOP and Athletiqs, Rp175,000 at Royal Court and Rp200,000 at Ashley.

Jakarta venues are mostly booked by the court rather than through open play, so organise a group of four before you book; Vata Courts Kemang hires out paddles. Traffic is the main practical concern, so choose a venue close to home or the office. Evening slots after work are the most popular, and on outdoor courts the afternoon rain in the wet season, from around November to March, can cut a session short.
