What are your priorities for this trip?
--quality of tennis instruction?
--the beach and overall quality of the resort?
--ability to get a good game at your level every day in addition to instruction?
--what month because heat/humidity vary greatly here in the Southeast?
Depending on your priorities, you might get a very different answer for best choice.
I'd put Amelia Island and one of the tennis resorts on Hilton Head like Palmetto Dunes on your list. Saddlebrook has a good reputation but it is not right on the beach, just close. I hit at Wild Dunes a couple years ago and would not recommend there for tennis. It looked like they were de-emphasizing tennis. Golf and beach I would recommend WD, just not tennis.
My home club is Tops'l Racket & Beach and we have Sandestin next door, on the beach in the FL Panhandle. I could give you the pros and cons of our area if you like.
My wife and I are looking for a tennis resort on the east coast with clay courts (HarTru is fine) and a nice beach. I've had my eye on South Carolina but am open to going wherever, really. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
If you are looking for a quite community try litchfield beach SC,
19 Hard tru courts, daily round robins, good instruction - very cheap weekly all you can play deal

We are looking to stay at either Tops'l or Sandestin Beach Resort at the end of August. Can you let me know some of the pros/cons of their tennis programs?
