PADDLEMATES Adriatico Square

Three indoor courts at Adriatico Square in Malate, on the corner of M. Adriatico and Gen. Malvar, open 8am to 11pm daily. The rate steps up at 6pm: ₱800 an hour before, ₱1,000 after.

That evening figure is among the highest we list anywhere. Google classifies it as a pickleball court proper rather than a gym with lines painted on, and it carries a 3.9 rating. Enquiries and bookings go through the Paddlemates Facebook page or the mobile number listed.

Worth knowing: Malate is unusually well served. Manila Pickleball Club is 812 m away at ₱150 per person and BSP Pickleball Club about the same distance — both considerably cheaper per session if the evening rate is what puts you off.
