Beretania
Tennis Club
Honolulu's only private downtown tennis club - three secluded courts behind a lava-rock wall, five minutes from the city, kept for the love of the game since 1895.
The Club
A quiet court
A quiet court
in the middle
of the city.
Tucked into a secluded block on Victoria Street, BTC has been the downtown player's getaway for well over a century. Park on-site, walk past the rock wall, and you're on court in minutes.

Beyond the Baseline
A club, not just courts.
Five minutes from downtown, BTC is built for the way you actually live - a quick match, a hot shower, and a reason to stay a while.
The Changeover
The social break after the match.
A mini-kitchen and a full fridge make the clubhouse the best seat in town. Linger after your match for strawberries and cream - or something stronger - with the people you just beat.
Wash & Go
Freshen up the car, too.
An on-site car wash and vacuum area is a rare luxury in town. Rinse off the salt air and roll out clean.

More than a century of tennis in Honolulu.

One of Honolulu's earliest private tennis communities takes root.
The club settles at 1325 Victoria Street, the courts members know today.
BTC formalizes as a nonprofit Hawaii corporation, member-stewarded.
Three courts, member reservations, lessons, and the same welcome.
On Court
Show up. Play. That's the whole idea.
Reserve a court from your phone, walk in, and play. Members book simple blocks, bring guests for a small fee, and let the clubhouse handle the rest.
