Kona Kai Swim & Racquet Club

This place is awesome if you love tennis or swimming, in particular in an area where similar affordable facilities are either overpriced (Bay Club), overcrowded (CSC) or plain lacking (public courts). You rarely have to wait for courts, they are well maintained and have been recently resurfaced.
For family or social events there are gas grills and a recently remodeled kitchen which is very convenient. There are other amenities that are great for kids and safe, so everyone can enjoy themselves.
Yes there is an initial investment in membership but the good part is that the memberships are limited which guarantees the quality of experience, unlike the for profit clubs that are just motivated to sell more. And the monthly fees are very reasonable for an area that is generally overpriced.
If you have a family and plan to live in the area for a few years, and are lucky enough to find someone who’s willing to sell their membership, you should consider this place.

The grounds are well kept and beautiful. Thank you to the warm & friendly staff for a great experience– especially Sharon Hirozawa!

The facility is OK but the management is unfair and arbitrary as detailed below.
I was a member of Kona Kai for 11 years and when I sold my membership, which had substantially declined in value, I found out that the club had unilaterally changed the terms of the transfer agreement.
This meant that instead of paying the $ 680 transfer fee I agreed to in my original contract, the club deducted a transfer fee of $ 1,100 from the already devalued membership price. I engaged in protracted attempts to recover the $ 420 transfer fee overcharge but the management was intransigent and uncommunicative. My only recourse would have been to take them to court.
Think twice before making this investment!

A great swim and tennis club!

Why aren’t there more reviews of Kona Kai? That’s easy — we want to keep the place to ourselves! I’ve been a member since, err, 1995 I think. Unilocal says not to write a review if you’re the owner which is tough, because we’re a «member-​owned» club, so we’re all owners as well as members. That’s why the dues are so low and we treat the place like it belonged to us, which it does.
There are 6 lighted courts and all skill levels of tennis players. My son learnt to play here and I play 2 or 3 times a week. The pool is great, and there are lots of activities for all the family, all year long.
Come check the place out (if you can find it!). You’ll like what you see.

We have been members of this club since 2006 and have nothing but positive things to say about it. Gorgeous lighted tennis courts, a spacious well maintained pool and a safe and fun kiddie pool for the little ones.
The club room itself is like stepping back in time with it’s retro style (and that is a good thing!). The club has a working kitchen with coffee always brewing.
The locker rooms are well maintained. there is even a Game Room equipped with Foozball, Air Hockey and a Ping Pong Table.
The club manager is warm and welcoming and knows everyone by name.
But the best part is the events. A BBQ every Friday in the summer. Easter egg hunts, St. Patrick’s Day parties, movie nights and more.
There are also swim lessons, tennis clinics and camps and a tennis team for adults. It’s just a great place.
Kona Kai puts and emphasis on families and community. It is an oasis in the busy Silicon Valley life.
