Is rallying with a championship tennis player on your bucket list? If so, you may want to consider booking a once-in-a-lifetime tennis clinic with Venus Williams happening at Sandy Lane resort in Barbados. The two-day clinic is scheduled for November 1-2, 2014, during which guests who sign up for the clinic will receive tips from the championship tennis player on the hotel’s floodlit courts.

The complete package starts at $5,555 (US) and includes four nights’ accommodation in a plush Luxury Ocean room with breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea. The package also includes an invite to an exclusive sunset cocktail party on Sunday, November 2, and a spa treatment at the hotel’s award-winning 47,000 square-foot Spa.

It may sound pricey, yes, but Sandy Lane is not just any old resort. Established in 1961, this ultra-luxurious resort has a A-list roster of guests who’ve checked in, not to mention the top-notch service and incredible on-site amenities, like their Evian misting stations on the beach, three golf courses and four outstanding restaurants to dine at.

An amazing hotel plus a tennis experience you’ll never forget. We think that makes for one good vacation.
