The tennis facilities at Paseo have been designated a 2008 Distinguished Outdoor Tennis Facility by The American Sports Builders Association (ASBA) and Racquet Sports Industry Magazine. Paseo is a private, gated resort-style community in South Fort Myers.
The ASBA award program is designed to promote the highest standards of construction excellence. Welch Tennis Courts Inc., the company that built the new tennis facility at Paseo, presented the project to the ASBA for consideration and it was recognized at the ASBA year-end meeting in New Orleans in December.
Part of Paseo's Village Center sports complex, the tennis complex includes six lighted lakefront HydroGrid tennis courts and a cabana.
"Paseo's tennis facility is among the finest in Lee County," said Milan Fiser, Director of Tennis. "Within months after its opening last year, we had established an active schedule of play and compliments from local tennis players for the quality of our facilty."
Also open in the Sports Complex is a fishing pier, four bocce ball courts and a basketball court.
Paseo's 26,000 square foot Village Center amenities include a full-service concierge, a bistro, an ice cream parlor, a pub, an internet café, a coffee shop, a 4,000 square foot fitness center, a business center and library, as well as spa services and a 90-seat theatre with a projection room and comfortable elevated seating.
The resort-style pool features a poolside gazebo serving refreshments. Adjacent to the main pool is a large spa, a fitness-oriented lap pool and a children's water playground.
