Where to Play Padel in Los Angeles: Every Open Club, With Courts, Hours and Prices

If you are looking for where to play padel in Los Angeles, start with the honest scale of it: LA is still early. The whole county has seven open clubs and 18 courts, against more than 200 in Miami. What it does have is concentrated and characterful — a three-court hideaway on Sunset Boulevard, rooftop courts above two Westfield malls, the city's only indoor padel club in Culver City, and a four-court setup inside the LA Galaxy's home stadium. Every address, court count, hour and price below was checked against the clubs' own sites and booking pages on November 6, 2026 — and where a club publishes no price, this guide says so instead of guessing.

East Hollywood: the original

The Padel Courts, at 5115 W Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90027, is LA's original padel club: three outdoor courts set around a converted craftsman-style house with a dedicated parking lot, a grass "Backyard" area and a new wellness alley with a sauna, cold plunge and showers. The club's own site now describes three full-size courts — older guides list two full-size courts plus a mini court, so the mini appears to have been converted. Open daily 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM. It is the most social first stop in the city: clinics for all levels, private lessons, open play and social events, booked through PlayByPoint in 30-minute increments, with no membership required for drop-in play. The club publishes no court price on its own site; the best available figure is $100 per court per hour, reported by the LA Times in March 2025 and by directory listings, so treat that as the going rate and check the booking total for your slot. Directory listings also quote group clinics at $45 per person for an hour and open play at $35 per player for two hours.

The Westside rooftops and the indoor flagship

Padel Up — Century City, on the Skydeck (Level 3) of Westfield Century City at 10250 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90067, is padel above the mall: two outdoor rooftop courts with LED lighting for night play, open daily 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. It is pay-and-play with no membership required — book through the club's website or Apple app — and the club publishes its rate plainly: $120 per court per hour, or $100 off-peak (the site does not define the off-peak windows, so confirm yours when you book). Racket rental is $10 an hour and balls $6. The calendar is the draw here: open plays, Americano socials, clinics, leagues and USPA-rated tournaments, plus private and corporate events, which the club recommends this rooftop for over its Culver City site.

Padel Up — Culver City, at 3007 Hauser Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90016, is the operator's indoor flagship and LA's only indoor padel club: three indoor courts under high ceilings, open daily 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM, with a free private parking lot. The rate is $140 per court per hour, or $120 off-peak (again, off-peak windows are not defined on the site). The lounge doubles as a co-working space with Wi-Fi, there is a bar, and the locker rooms with showers, cold plunge and sauna are members-only — worth knowing if the recovery setup is part of the appeal, since day players do not get it. Booking is the same as Century City: website or Apple app, pay-and-play, membership optional.

The Valley: a rooftop above Sherman Oaks

Pura Padel, on the rooftop of Westfield Fashion Square at 14006 Riverside Dr, Sherman Oaks, CA 91423, brings padel to the San Fernando Valley: three panoramic outdoor rooftop courts with views across the Valley, a lounge and warm-up area with weights and a cold plunge, and a youth program run by RSPA-certified coaches. The club's own site lists hours of 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM daily (Google and directory listings say 8:00 AM — the club's figure is the one to plan around). Booking runs through Playtomic, where reservations cover all four players and cancellations up to 12 hours ahead get a credit refund. This is the one club in the guide with no verifiable per-court hourly rate: neither the official site nor Playtomic published one on November 6, 2026. What is verifiable is the per-person pricing — clinics at $45 per person for an hour (some team clinics $35) and open play at $45 per person for 90–120 minute sessions — plus optional memberships: Pura Social at $125 a month and Pura Elite at $225 a month, which buy booking credits and discounts on prime-time and off-peak courts.

The South Bay: the stadium club and the members' club

Taktika Padel Los Angeles, at 18400 Avalon Blvd, Carson, CA 90746, inside Dignity Health Sports Park — home of the LA Galaxy — is the South Bay's big room: four outdoor courts on artificial turf with LED lighting, open play, lessons and clinics, leagues and tournaments, and the Paquito Navarro Academy. No membership is required to book. Two caveats, both worth knowing before you drive to Carson: the club's own site publishes no hours and no prices, and the directories disagree on both. SimplePadel lists 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily; another directory lists Monday to Friday 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM and Saturday to Sunday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM — check the day's hours when you book. The only price figure available is directory-sourced, $55 to $65 per court per hour (off-peak $55, peak $65, checked November 2026), or about $14 per person split four ways. Booking runs through the club's booking app; directories disagree on whether that is Playtomic or PlayByPoint, so follow the link on the club's own site.

South End Racquet & Health Club, at 2800 Skypark Dr, Torrance, CA 90505, is the South Bay's other option and a different animal: a private members' club with two enclosed, lighted outdoor padel courts alongside tennis, pickleball and squash. There is no drop-in play — guests play only with or through a member, although weekend advanced open play is open to members and guests and leagues admit non-members when a season is open. Club-wide hours are Monday to Friday 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM and Saturday to Sunday 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM (7:00 PM in summer); the club publishes no padel-specific hours and no membership dues or court fee, so the only way in is to know a member.

The private one: Santa Monica

Santa Monica has exactly one padel court, and you almost certainly cannot play on it. The Beach Club, at 201 Palisades Beach Rd, Santa Monica, CA 90402, is a private, member-owned beach club founded in 1923, with about 715 members and one enclosed padel court alongside its paddle-tennis courts, sand volleyball and bocce. There is no day pass, no public booking and no published price or hours; the only route in is as a guest of a member. It is included here so nobody drives to the beach expecting a public court — for a playable game on the Westside, the nearest options are Padel Up Century City and Culver City.

Announced, not yet open

LA's padel map is about to get much bigger — but none of these clubs is playable yet, and the guide lists them as targets, not options.

Los Angeles Padel Club, at 3801 Lenawee Ave on the West LA–Culver City border, is the most-awaited: seven outdoor courts including two tournament-runout courts, a restored historic mansion clubhouse of about 4,000 square feet with a café and bar, sauna and cold plunge, outdoor showers, a zen garden and co-working space, open to the public with membership perks. Its opening has slipped repeatedly — summer 2025, then summer 2026, then "by the end of the year" in July 2026 press — and its official site still shows only a "Coming Soon" page as of November 6, 2026.

Casa Padel Social Club, at the corner of South Barrington Avenue and Santa Monica Boulevard in West LA, is the closest to opening: eight outdoor courts on a 40,000-square-foot site with a sauna and cold plunge, restaurant and bar and co-working spaces, offering both membership and drop-in booking. Its courts were photographed under construction in late October 2026 with an estimated opening of mid-November — days after this guide was checked — so verify it is open before planning around it. No street address, hours or prices have been published yet.

King of Padel at West Harbor, San Pedro, CA 90731, is a 50,000-square-foot complex with six outdoor padel courts and ten pickleball courts, promising open play, leagues, tournaments and glow-in-the-dark events. The West Harbor waterfront soft-launched only as a World Cup fan zone in July 2026; tenants are still building out their spaces, with openings expected from fall 2026 into 2027, and no firm date for King of Padel itself.

Ballers DTLA, in the former Macy's at The Bloc, 750 W 7th St, downtown Los Angeles, is a 100,000-plus-square-foot social sports venue announced in August 2025 with four padel courts planned alongside pickleball, golf simulators, soccer fields, bars and a recovery zone. Both of its 2026 opening targets have passed with no opening announcement, and its LA page is still an email-capture page. One trap for researchers: the hours and padel prices on that page belong to Ballers' Boston Seaport location, not DTLA — LA padel pricing has not been published.

Padel California — Whittier is building five outdoor courts and a clubhouse, the brand's second Southern California club after Oceanside, but no street address or opening date has been published. Bay Padel — Marina del Rey, at 4088 Del Rey Ave, is in development as Bay Padel's first LA-area club, with no court count or opening date announced.

What an hour of padel costs in Los Angeles

Prices below are per court per hour unless the line says per person, checked November 6, 2026. LA padel is mostly priced per court, and the spread is wide — the cheapest published court rate in the city is roughly half the dearest.

  • Taktika Padel, Carson (directory-sourced): $55–$65 per court per hour — about $14 per person split four ways. The cheapest court rate in the guide, but the club's own site publishes no price.
  • The Padel Courts, East Hollywood (press/directory): about $100 per court per hour. Clinics $45 per person, open play $35 per player for two hours (directory figures).
  • Padel Up — Century City: $120 per court per hour, $100 off-peak (official site).
  • Padel Up — Culver City: $140 per court per hour, $120 off-peak (official site) — the dearest court rate in the city, and the only indoor courts.
  • Pura Padel, Sherman Oaks: no per-court rate published. Clinics $45 per person, open play $45 per person; memberships from $125 a month.
  • No public court price published: South End Racquet & Health Club (members only) and The Beach Club (private). For these, the price is a membership conversation, not a booking-page figure.

Peak means weekday evenings and weekends almost everywhere. Padel Up's off-peak rates exist at both clubs but the off-peak windows are not defined on the club site — confirm yours when you book. And remember the split: a $120 court is $30 a player with four of you, which is how LA's dearest courts end up costing less per person than a single cinema ticket.

How to pick your first Los Angeles padel club

Pick by the problem you are solving. Complete beginner with no partner: start at The Padel Courts or Pura Padel, where clinics and open play match you with players at your level. Want the view: Padel Up Century City at sunset, or Pura Padel above Sherman Oaks. Playing through summer heat or a rainy week: Padel Up Culver City is the only indoor option in the city. Chasing the cheapest court: Taktika in Carson, with the caveat that its hours and prices live in directories rather than on the club's own site, so confirm before you drive. In the South Bay without a membership: Taktika again — South End is members-and-guests only. Wherever you start, you do not need to own a racket first: Padel Up rents rackets at $10 an hour, and the other clubs rent or lend at the desk.

FAQ

How many padel courts are there in Los Angeles?

Seven open clubs list 18 courts between them: three each at The Padel Courts, Padel Up Culver City and Pura Padel, two at Padel Up Century City, four at Taktika in Carson, two at South End in Torrance and one private court at The Beach Club in Santa Monica. Six more clubs are announced or under construction, with about 30 courts planned between them.

Do I need a membership to play padel in Los Angeles?

Usually not. The Padel Courts, both Padel Up clubs, Pura Padel and Taktika all sell pay-and-play court time, clinics and open play to non-members, and several publish their per-court rates. The exceptions are South End Racquet & Health Club in Torrance, where guests play only with a member, and The Beach Club in Santa Monica, which is private.

Where is the cheapest padel in Los Angeles?

On published rates checked in November 2026, Taktika in Carson is the cheapest court: $55–$65 per court per hour from directory listings, about $14 per person split four ways — though the club's own site publishes no price. The Padel Courts runs about $100 per court per hour, and Padel Up's off-peak rates ($100 at Century City, $120 at Culver City) are the cheapest club-published figures.

Where can I play padel indoors in Los Angeles?

Padel Up Culver City is the city's only indoor padel club: three indoor courts under high ceilings at 3007 Hauser Blvd, open daily 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM, at $140 per court per hour ($120 off-peak). Every other open club in the guide plays outdoors, mostly on rooftops.

Los Angeles padel is still small enough to hold in your head — seven clubs, 18 courts, one indoor room — and about to double, with Casa Padel due within days and the Los Angeles Padel Club, King of Padel and Ballers DTLA all somewhere between announced and open. Start with the club closest to you, book an off-peak court or a clinic, and the hardest problem in LA padel is still finding a fourth player.
