    “More technique, less fatigue”?—Absolutely!
    I have been visiting Oliver four times every annual visit, since 2019. Each time I see him, I leave the island much better than I came to it in terms of my Tennis. On this trip, we comprehensively worked on backhand, forehand, and serving. Oliver is amazing! As but one example, he is all the way across the net from me, and telling me that I moved my grip from where he wanted it! If you want to get your Tennis, to the next level, you need to go see Oliver and he will fix you up!

    Oliver @ American Tennis Academy the BEST!
    American Tennis Academy is an absolute jewel of a facility on the northern part of St. Martin. Beautiful scenery surrounded by palm trees and mountains. But what makes it so special is the owner and tennis pro Coach Oliver. He is an absolute master of his craft. I started seeing Oliver on my third (of now eight) annual visits to St. Martin. Each trip I have at least four coaching session. Each time I return to my Chicago home and play matches, I and my team mates notice an immediate improvement in tennis level. Getting better makes you want to get better! I highly recommend you contact American Tennis Academy if you're serious about tennis.

    Improving Our Tennis Skills with Oliver, the Ultimate Tennis Professional, “Ze Best”Experience of our vacation!
    We are experienced tennis players and love the game. We enjoy vacationing in St. Martin and discovered, through researching the island’s tennis capabilities, the American Tennis Academy and Oliver, the owner and Pro. We wanted to improve our ground strokes and serves. Oliver understood our objectives and immediately put a plan in place for each of us. Our friend videoed our current technique, as well as Oliver’s corrective instructions. We enjoyed our six early morning lessons, his personal approach and communication. We feel propelled into our next tennis improvement chapter and can’t wait for our tennis teammates comments! Most highly recommend Oliver and his established American Tennis Academy. We WILL return!

2nd trip to St. Martin in 2020 and I have to give a shout out to the American Tennis Academy. Oliver is the Pro running the academy and he is super fantastic. He has set up really good matches for me, as well as given me a couple of lessons which were technically spot on. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for some tennis while on the island. Courts are nice, lightening is state of the art, and the people amazing. Looking forward to returning on my next trip to the island.

Our three days of lessons here was a highlight of our trip! Oliver is an amazing coach for kids and adults alike. So knowledgeable and provides so much useful information for each person he teaches. The most beautiful backdrop for playing tennis as well. We’ll certainly be back!

My husband and I played with Oliver for two weeks and he was an absolutely amazing instructor. Patient, fun and kind - he improved my technique drastically and I’m playing better than I ever imagined I could. We plan to come back to the island for another tennis vacation! This place is a gem.

Both my daughter and I have improved on our tennis skills a ton. Oliver is an amazing coach. 🎾✌️☀️ We played everyday for 20 days and have enjoyed every minute of it. Oliver was able to correct my old mistakes that I have lived with for years and put my daughter on a right track. Bravo, Oliver! 👏👏👏

Oliver is a great tennis instructor. If you are looking to tune up your game he has a great eye for technique upgrades that can take you to the next level! Plus he is a great guy!

Was in search for a nice breakfast spot and saw the signs at the tennis academy. Oliver was welcoming and made a delicious French breakfast, exactly what we were looking for. American breakfast is also available and we highly recommend if you are near the French cul de sac.

My 19 year old daughter has received lessons from Oliver for 5 years; he is the best teaching coach we have ever had, for all aspects of the game. My daughter is now playing for her college, thanks to his expert training. Oliver lives to teach and to play host to his guests for tennis and breakfast or lunch. The food is wonderful, the service is personal, and the instruction and facilities are the best on the island. Top recommendations! One of the best things to do on the island, hands down.
