I love the Tennis and pickle ball programs here. Far surpasses the other swim and racquet clubs I've been to. The courts here are kept in top shape, fresh filtered water on each court with 2 shaded observation decks. The Weekend tennis staff is wonderful and extremely knowledgeable. The lockers room is kept pretty clean on slow days, needs more work on busy days/hours. The cafe is convenient with a super friendly staff. The gym floor I've been to once..not too crazy about the rude mature woman trainer.
Thé members have been wonderful as well as most of the staff, especially the tennis pros, Linda for one! My husband and I really enjoy coming here. We're excited to see the new pool once finished. Hopefully by last week of Oct!

I have been a Member in and off since their Grand Opening and what I like is they are constantly improving the facility and offering more options. The downfall is is expensive. I wish they offered more membership options. I also would like if they included a couple free passes to their members every once in a while so we can bring guests.

5 stars to 2 stars after 10 months:
Original:
So far so good. Class of four children for 25$ per class of 30 minutes which seem to be in the range of you compare to water aquatic or YMCA. Nice facilities, parents are not in the class but you can pay 5$ or 7$ depending of the time to have free time in the pool (which is very limited in their schedule). Free wifi, hot water, 25$ yearly admission fee.
After 10 months:
My daughter received 2 ribbons in the first 3 months and for the next 7 nothing. My 3 years old might not be the best but she listens. However, the teachers (we tried 3 different) keep being stubborn about "gliding". My daughter got better but she wants to swim (move her feet). So, she is stuck at that level. Also, they need to go in deep water for the next level but the kid can practice deep water only 1/5 time, hence almost only one every two months. The program is NOT adapted for young kid and the teachers do not know how to change the routine to spark progress.
The staff is way too young. The supervisor decks are total douche bag. Sun glasses, big attitude, talk loudly. When I asked a question, their answer was very respectful like if the question was dumb while they had done a mistake (give twice the same level to my daughter).
The pool is DANGEROUS. I saw a boy that almost drowned because in the deep water the two teachers were not supervising the kid waiting in line. The boy went in the deep and couldn't get up. It took more than 3 seconds to the teachers to move toward the boy. I almost had the time to jump to rescue him myself... Very dangerous. Supervisor decks are not checking, they just walk around with weird attitude.
About supervisor decks, they also distract teachers with ridiculous riddle on the whiteboard and chitchat. I know, I stay on the side of the pool. Also, do NOT take the 3h30pm class because teachers are tidy up stuff 10 minutes before the end of the class to get ready for their "teachers huddle".
In short, the staff is way too young, all around 21 years old. They have "fun" there, and it looks to be a great place to "chill" as a first job, but for your own children safety and progression, I do not recommend.

This place is amazing! There's no other place like AVAC. It has a beautiful pool area complete with a palm tree, rimmed hot tub. The place looks like a resort so you can imagine you're in Hawaii relaxing at the pool. This health club also has indoor hot tubs in the women's and men's locker rooms. They have powerful jets to soothe sore muscles. They also offer great classes and have a suprisingly extensive and delicious snack bar/cafe complete with slushies in the summer! I can't say enough good things about this place.
To me, it's the jewel of San Jose!
