Permanently Closed! No notice to members. (Both Jacksonville locations-Baymeadows and Queens Harbor.) I liked this place. Have been a member for a few years, but a notice should be given of a week, at least. Members did not know until they came to workout on Saturday 5/4/19.

My first time in as I usually go to the Fleming Island location I was greeted right away and noticed it to be friendly, clean, and the music was just right not too loud. The kids area was clean and the children's care giver was kind and attentive.

This is my best experience at any membership gym or club.

Everything you need is readily available, plus they have some things you might only use once it a while. Plenty of space to lift and spacious areas to do things like sleds, walking lunges, mini sprints, etc. It's a franchise with a local owner... giving members the best of both the corporate branding and the homey feel of a local small business.

They have group and personal training, but it's not a typical "class system" that partitions off a lot of the gym's experience. Regular members can use all but the most personal training specific areas... which is fair to both the regular members and those paying-up for the personalized service.

They got rid of most of the good equipment in favor of group training. Super cramed now

I have been a member since it's opening. Solid gym. Modern machines, good workout environment, clean and usually fairly well organized. They keep improving the gym and rearranging the machines to optimize space use. Staff is very friendly. Great gym. Why not a five star? The gym is little small.

The Best gyms Known today. Inside you have different equipment for different styles of people. Classes where you can join to change up the pace if you are lacking in your life. The smoothies are the best

Love it! Staff is friendly and helpful. Plus they love their job. Their passion for their work is motivation to workour harder.

I joined this gym for the cardio theater "That they still falsely advertise on their website" and a series of equipment that I liked to use.
They took out over 12 pieces of equipment to make room for a personal training area and also completely removed the theater.
I emailed them they never wrote back, So I called. They told me it'd be cheaper to just keep paying VS the heavy penalty for canceling early... There are lots of options out there, Shop around for more reputable gyms..

Location is nice enough, the Management is absolutely atrocious. You can probably tell from some of the reviews, if everything goes well its fine, if you get tied in with their management whatsoever its an absolute train wreck. So just be mindful before signing the contact that they are not customer centric in anyway.

Just joined, so far I really like it! Nice people and great equipment. Child care is also really great!

Shady practices, forces you into a contract without being aware of it; all around terrible place. Save your money and go to planet fitness, and get better value while you're at it. No contracts, no bogus fees, no surprises. You want to cancel? It's easy and on the spot. Planet fitness for the win! Or for that matter, any other gym!

I've been going here over 2 years now. It's convenient, plenty of weights and equipment, and inexpensive. Good place to work out.

Retro is the best gym in all of Jacksonville. If I didnt have a newly built gym in my apartment complex then I would have continued the membership here. My only suggestion is that we have late evening classes so I could do zumba after 8 or 9. Other than that no complaints.

Brand new equipment, nice and spacious.

Still getting chargebacks when we canceled in December. ABC Financial keeps harassing us, and the location said they would handle the situation. Filed two BBB complaints and cannot get anyone to fix the problem and close the complaint.

I also witnessed a male in the ladies locker room back in October-November and the management kept asking me the same questions over and over again, almost as if they were trying to see if I was lying. I saw a very nervous male in the ladies locker room when I walked in to get my things, and a minute or so after I walked in he ran out. This is FORMER management I get that, but at the same token nothing was ever done about it. Also former management liked to hire people that she liked and were friends with. Also I had a cross dressing friend who used the ladies restroom with me - this individual was not trans gender nor a cross dresser or anything else. He was a shifty looking individual in the ladies bathroom.

This place is a mess, if they are able to make this many screw ups and take that long to fire a bad manager then I definitely think that they aren't good overall.

The old management also fired multiple outstanding employees to get those said friends in. This manager was there for many months before let go - seems that Retro really needs to get it together. Now a patron of LA Fitness and couldn't be happier.
