The Bath & Racquet Residences & Club: Where Legacy Meets Modern Luxury

For decades, Sarasota’s Bath & Racquet Club was more than just a place to play tennis—it was a community, a gathering spot, and a cornerstone of the city’s social scene. From hosting legends like Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova at the Virginia Slims of Sarasota to being the go-to place for fitness and fun, this club has a rich history that locals cherish. Now, it’s entering an exciting new chapter—one that blends its iconic past with a fresh, modern vision.
The Bath & Racquet Residences & Club is undergoing a remarkable transformation. What was once a beloved sports club is now evolving into a vibrant residential and wellness community. Designed to foster a balanced lifestyle, this reimagined space offers 256 luxury condominiums alongside state-of-the-art sports and wellness amenities.
Future residents can choose from four uniquely designed buildings—The Courtyard, The Courtside, The Parkside, and The Poolside—each offering a range of one, two, and three-bedroom layouts. Whether you want a cozy retreat or a spacious residence, these homes are crafted with thoughtful design and a connection to Sarasota’s stunning natural surroundings.
The architecture, led by the award-winning Halflants + Pichette team, brings together clean, modern lines with Florida’s classic indoor-outdoor aesthetic. Large windows, open layouts, and a seamless flow between living spaces create homes that feel both contemporary and timeless.
Beyond the residences, nature plays a big role in this new community. A two-acre park, shaded by grand oak trees, features a playground, two dog parks, and a one-kilometer recreational trail. Whether you want to go for a morning jog or take a relaxing evening stroll, the space is designed to make outdoor living effortless.
At the heart of this transformation is the newly revitalized Bath & Racquet Club—now under the guidance of former ATP #2 and tennis legend Tommy Haas. His vision? A world-class sports facility that honors the club’s legacy while embracing the needs of today’s athletes and wellness enthusiasts.
Here’s what members will enjoy:
✔ 13 outdoor tennis courts
✔ 16 pickleball courts (including 12 indoor and air-conditioned)
✔ A massive 7,000-square-foot gym and wellness center
✔ An oversized swimming pool
✔ A 4,500-square-foot restaurant and juice bar
Whether you’re an avid athlete, a casual weekend player, or just someone who loves the energy of a vibrant club, this space is designed to bring people together.
One of the best things about living at the Bath & Racquet Residences & Club is the location. Nestled in the heart of Sarasota at 2170 Robinhood Street, it’s close to everything—from downtown attractions to the stunning beaches of Siesta Key. St. Armands Circle, known for its world-class dining, boutique shopping, and lively entertainment, is just a short drive away.
This project isn’t just about luxury homes or top-tier amenities—it’s about creating a lifestyle that brings together community, wellness, and the best of Sarasota living.
If you’re looking for a home that blends history with modern luxury, or a club that offers world-class facilities in a welcoming community, the Bath & Racquet Residences & Club is a place worth exploring. Stay tuned as this legendary Sarasota landmark steps into its next exciting chapter.
