"Thank you Smashtravel for having me, and for your kindness and effort on court. I truly had a fun time and a good experience!"
Mat, England

"Spending 2 weeks with Smashtravel was so far one of the most memorable holidays I’ve had in my adult life (honestly, this review is unsolicited haha). The coaches are both super nice and make you work and learn new techniques, and the organizer makes sure to show up, check on you and generally cares about the experience!"

"Smashtravel badminton camp 10 dage i december 2024. Alt var planlagt ned til mindste detalje, så velorganiseret. Det var en hård camp med høj kvalitet og super god stemning. Mange forskellige nationaliteter gav et ekstra løft. Trænerne er dygtige og smilende. To aftener om ugen kan man prøve kræfter med de lokale i en mini-turnering. Det er et must try med high fives fra de lokale champs og en helt speciel stemning. Kort og godt, en verdensklasse badminton camp på Bali! / Emil og Claus Tranberg fra Gentofte Badminton Klub"

"I am from the UK, and trained at the Smashtravel's camp in Bali for a month. It was a really fantastic experience. The coaches were brilliant and provided very high quality trainings, specific to my needs and level. Off the court, the service and support provided by the Smashtravel team was top notch, and made the trip an absolute pleasure. Overall, the experience was great and very well organised. I can warmly recommend Smashtravel to anyone who might be considering it!"

"From enquiring online to arrival in Bali, until the day we left, it was all an amazing experience. This training was for my son who is just 8 years, and we weren't sure on how this training would help, but to our surprise, coaches understood him quickly and tailored his coaching based on his game style and areas to learn. Language is a bit of concern with some of their coaches, but sports has no language barrier, and they give their best to communicate and teach badminton. It was a great gesture to also pick us from airport on the day we landed in Bali. Thanks a lot to Smashtravel! / Atharva father, Somnath"

"I attended a 2-week badminton camp with Smashtravel in Bali, and it was amazing. As a traveler from the UK, Smashtravel made the experience seamless, handling all logistics and visa processes. The training sessions were the highlight—focused on my playing style and areas to improve rather than just repetitive drills. This personalized approach made a big difference. The team's warmth and friendliness made my stay unforgettable. Highly recommended!"

"In één woord: super! Ik heb hier een week mogen genieten van het trainingskamp. De trainingen waren van hoog niveau, waardoor ik veel nieuwe dingen heb geleerd. Het kamp is supergoed georganiseerd door Sena. In de avonden en weekenden is er tijd om eropuit te gaan en het prachtige Bali te ontdekken. Ik zou dit aan alle badmintonners van elk niveau aanbevelen! Tot volgend jaar!"

"Where do I even start? Bali Badminton Camp was truly one of the best experiences of my life. Not only was I able to enhance my badminton skills with the brilliant training and facilities, but I also made some of the best friends that will last a lifetime, and got to experience the island of Bali. The coaches were excellent, facilities were great, and the accom was lovely and in close proximity to the hall. The schedule was intense but also provided well needed rest and free time. I would recommend the camp to anyone and everyone that’s contemplating it, and I'll most certainly be back. Thank you Smashtravel!"

"Les camps d’entraînement de badminton Smashtravel offrent une expérience incroyable. Que vous soyez un joueur débutant ou expérimenté, le stage saura répondre à vos attentes. J’ai participé à un stage de 5 semaines sur l’île de Bali, une île paradisiaque, idéale pour un camp d’entraînement. Chaque semaine comprend environ vingt heures d’entraînement avec des coachs indonésiens, adaptés à tous les profils. Smashtravel est parfait si vous recherchez une expérience culturelle enrichissante et souhaitez progresser en badminton."
Anjel, Canada
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Bali and Badminton? It's the best combination if you want to travel and play. Smashtravel made it all possible. I was able to improve my badminton skills within 3 weeks of intense training but at the same time explored Bali. The coach and the players in the club are very welcoming. There might be a slight language barrier with the other players but the coach speaks decent English. Honestly, you would not regret joining Smashtravel. I would love to go back again next year!"
Thomas, France
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Excellente expérience! J'ai passé deux semaines à Bali sur des terrains de qualité (gymnase Jayaprana). Les coachs sont à l'écoute et s'adaptent bien à votre niveau. Vous aurez l'occasion de vous entraîner une vingtaine d'heures par semaine. Il y a aussi du temps pour visiter Bali et ses alentours pendant le week-end! C'était un vrai plaisir de rencontrer tous les autres, stagiaires et coachs!"
Jean-Baptiste, Cambodia
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I signed up for 4 weeks and ended extending to 5 weeks and had a FANTASTIC experience. It was mainly thanks to Smashtravel that organized things extremely well and was attentive, responsive, patient and flexible. The head coach, along with the assistant coaches, can spot right on details to correct, great on the technical aspects but also manages very well groups with exercices, drills and games, despite sometimes having to deal with different levels. I highly recommend Smashtravel and would definitely join other camps, in Bali or elsewhere!"
Ran, Canada

"Fantastic experience in Bali from start to end thanks to Smashtravel! They even picked me up from the airport, and anything from food to money exchange, to what to do, they’re one text away!! Thanks to Smashtravel, the host of the guest house and the coaches! Will definitely come back when I can!"

"I recently attended a badminton camp organized by Smashtravel in Bali and it was an outstanding experience. The coaches was phenomenal. Their ability to cater to a wide range of skill levels, from novice to expert, ensured everyone improved their game. The coaches are committed to making sure everyone enjoys the game and learns, regardless of level. The camp offered a good mix of sparring partners, including international attendees and skilled local players, which significantly enriched the training sessions. In conclusion, if you're contemplating attending, I wholeheartedly recommend it!"
Brendan, Cook Islands
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I spent a week training with Smashtravel in Bali while prepping for a tournament and it's excellent! Learned many new soft skills and got some good sparring time in too with some local players. The facility is great and Smashtravel was very helpful in arranging my transport/accom and a few other small details during the week. Would love to return!"
Bhumi, Canada
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I am delighted to share my experience with Smashtravel, a fantastic badminton training program in Bali. During my two weeks, I worked with their exceptional coaching staff. From the moment I arrived, the coaches made me feel incredibly welcome. Their professionalism and friendliness stood out, and they dedicated time to explain techniques thoroughly. What impressed me most was their ability to tailor the training to individual skill levels. Whether you’re a beginner, intermediate, or advanced player, they guide you based on your needs. I’ll definitely return to Bali!"
Mark, The Netherlands
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"The Smashtravel camp in Bali is definitely an experience to recommend. When you arrive you are immediately welcomed as a family and therefore there is already a good atmosphere. Besides all the physical and technical training you get during your stay, you also have the chance to explore the beautiful island. During the three weeks I spent there, I learned a lot and gained a new experience for life!"
Finn, Ireland
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"High-quality coaching with constructive feedback in a competitive, friendly environment. The coaches are experienced, supportive, and push you when needed. The organizer is incredibly nice, helpful with anything we needed, and arranged fun activities to explore Bali and its culture. The camp offers great value for money, and I’ve seen significant improvement in my game. Self-taught, I finally had the chance to train properly, and it was a fantastic experience. Highly recommend! Thank you, Smashtravel!"
David, Sweden
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Very good experience for a badminton player. I can strongly recommend it if you are thinking about improving your level in badminton. No matter if you are a beginner or a pro player you will get better, and find the right level for your training. Thanks Smashtravel for this once-in-a-life-time experience in Bali!"
Elliot, Sweden

"Very nice location, coaches, and quality on the camp. You feel that the camp is professionally organized. If you have a problem, they solve it quickly. For me who was there, it was a unique experience of a lifetime!"
Eric, USA

"I came from the United States to Jakarta, Indonesia for a 2-month badminton training program. They picked me up at the airport and took me to the homestay, where I also had a welcome dinner with the coach. They helped me exchange money and gave me a free SIM card when I arrived. Despite being over 50 years old with no exercise for 2 months, the coach set up easier training for me to get into it. The cost is reasonable, and everything is customized for me. Indonesia may be poor, but the people are the friendliest I’ve ever met. I’m very satisfied with the program and will return again."
Ghassan, England
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Overall, a fantastic experience in Bali. Excellent coaching and the coach is equally able to teach badminton fundamentals (footwork and racquet use), as well as, more advanced techniques. I spent over 2 weeks with Smashtravel and saw an almost immediate improvement in my fitness, shot selection, and shot quality - I would highly recommend for all standards!"
Tatiana, Russia
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I’ve been playing badminton socially for about 2 years and simply love playing badminton with my friends in Bali. I am mainly self taught and have unfortunately developed some bad habits. I joined Smashtravel's training to turn my bad habits into good habits. Since joining I significantly improved in terms of my footwork, better smashes, better drops and essentially have become much more fun! The coaches are very supportive, and always offer amazing feedback. I would definitely recommend anyone to travel to Bali with Smashtravel who is interested in improving their techniques!"
Aleksandra, Estonia
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"In September 2022, I traveled to Bali. The purpose of the trip was to visit beautiful and amazing Indonesia and of course badminton training. There were two sessions per day. In the morning personal training, and in the evening group training with local players. The trainings were with wonderful local trainers who showed patience and interest. I am very grateful for this experience. It was incredibly interesting to travel and train in Bali!"

"Very nice location, coaches, and quality on the camp in Bali. You feel that the camp is professionally organized. If you have a problem, they solve it quickly. For me who was there, it was a unique experience of a lifetime!"

"I came from the United States to Jakarta, Indonesia for a 2-month badminton training program. They picked me up at the airport and took me to the homestay, where I also had a welcome dinner with the coach. They helped me exchange money and gave me a free SIM card when I arrived. Despite being over 50 years old with no exercise for 2 months, the coach set up easier training for me to get into it. The cost is reasonable, and everything is customized for me. Indonesia may be poor, but the people are the friendliest I’ve ever met. I’m very satisfied with the program and will return again."

"Overall, a fantastic experience in Bali. Excellent coaching and the coach is equally able to teach badminton fundamentals (footwork and racquet use), as well as, more advanced techniques. I spent over 2 weeks with Smashtravel and saw an almost immediate improvement in my fitness, shot selection, and shot quality - I would highly recommend for all standards!"

"I’ve been playing badminton socially for about 2 years and simply love playing badminton with my friends in Bali. I am mainly self taught and have unfortunately developed some bad habits. I joined Smashtravel's training to turn my bad habits into good habits. Since joining I significantly improved in terms of my footwork, better smashes, better drops and essentially have become much more fun! The coaches are very supportive, and always offer amazing feedback. I would definitely recommend anyone to travel to Bali with Smashtravel who is interested in improving their techniques!"

"In September 2022, I traveled to Bali. The purpose of the trip was to visit beautiful and amazing Indonesia and of course badminton training. There were two sessions per day. In the morning personal training, and in the evening group training with local players. The trainings were with wonderful local trainers who showed patience and interest. I am very grateful for this experience. It was incredibly interesting to travel and train in Bali!"
