Good place to work out.. Never really busy which is nice. However the pool in the summer is packed. During the off-season the pool may have one lane being used. 4/5 because after having been a member for almost one year, the construction is taking forever to complete.

We came here with our family. We played basketball and racquet ball. The facility is really clean and peaceful not like the other gyms. The members are very classy. We had lunch at the lounge and it was by far the most delicious food i've had in this area. They also serve alcohol which is a great plus. I highly recommend this place. The owner Amir is a gentleman.

We terminated our family membership to SouthEnd. My husband i spoke directly to the manager about a male trainer who was making me uncomfortable, giving me a little too much attention. Was told that this trainer is a good guy, he's doing his job, and laughed at me. Basically it was my problem not his trainer's behavior. At no point did the manager give a sincere apology for how i was feeling or say he would talk to the trainer. Did kept saying he wanted me to feel comfortable while at the gym and what a great job he, the manager was doing in building up the Club.

The men's locker room, which was recently renovated, does not have a sufficient number of day lockers; the renovation removed the following: a bank of day lockers across from the showers; a bank of day lockers outside the steam room; and a long bank of day lockers down the main corridor which connects the pool entrance to the shower facilities. The only remaining day lockers are in a very small alcove near the pool entrance and at almost all times there is insufficient space to dress and undress. This is a ridiculous situation that needs to be remedied immediately.

Hmm, what do I say about this place, I play tennis here every Tuesday. I wish they would replace the lights here, or even change the ones that don't work properly. Took them 3 months to replace the $5 net strap that didn't exist and I complained about every week. Oh and they could use a few wind screens on the courts, there is a reason there is an airport next to it, also it would help with the sun in the evenings. Construction just keeps going on and on, things get started and never finished. The club is nice, the bar belongs in Hollywood but doesn't stay open late. I keep going back and paying my membership dues though...

MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED.

MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED.

One of my favorite places in the world to visit. They go to great lengths to make sure their guests are covid safe. All employees wear masks and gloves.

Jeff and his team in the lounge are the most hospitable I have ever experienced.

Temperatures taken as you enter. Everything inside is closed for now. They moved the entire gym outside and provided a shaded environment with all machines at least 6ft apart. All members are required to wear masks and THEY DO! No one complains - they just do it. Disinfectant spray bottles and towels available everywhere.

I only take off my mask to eat or pose for a quick picture
Getting up from the table to go to the restroom?
Wear the mask.
Eating dinner and forgot something in the car?
Wear the mask.
Need to get up and ask a question from the bartender across the room?
Wear the mask.
Everyone here does the same.

They have different rates for membership depending if you want to include tennis, swimming, or just social. I believe a single person membership starts at about $100/month. Don t quote me though. Wifi is great here too. Many times I ve stopped by just to get some work done on my laptop in a quiet place. Perfect alternative to home office. Call and ask for Michelle about membership information - she is terrific!

They are very strict about their rules here and it makes for a very safe environment. I highly recommend this club. Wanna check it out? DM me!

I can't really say anything about the outside of this place, as I was only in the clubhouse, The inside of the clubhouse was nice (I was here for promo) but they did have to do things like bring in games from other companies. The place was clean, and the staff was nice. I did think it was a bit small, but that's just saying that there 299 other people there. But it was a nice place to host parties.

Great club. I see a review from 5 years ago about someone having to pay more for being "too loud".... That's sort of funny--I'm glad that management will try to keep out loud and obnoxious people--that makes the Club a better place to go!

With so many fitness places in the area, this one is just too full of themselves. Prices are out of bounds for a "gym". All the equipment is standard. If I want to go to a "lounge" for a drink, the area has plenty. If I want a haircut, I can go to a number of local salons. Same with a chiropractor. The big price is for all the conveniences they assume is what we all want. I wanted a gym. Not a place to eat, drink and get my hair done. I'm reminded of the saying "jack of all trades, master of none".
I've only had the regular membership, so heaven only knows what the tennis and basketball membership cost.
When they start improving the gym facilities instead of all the cosmetic frills I may re-join.

Staff go out of their way to keep it clean and make the gym experience enjoyable. The building is a bit tired looking and needs some TLC especially the mens locker room! The restaurant is attractive and has good food to go with.
