Clean, good staff, and well equipped.
Awesome place, love the pool and kid play room
I've heard great things about this rec center! New to the area so I cant wait to join soon. The facility is quite nice and the location perfect for my commutes. I will absolutely update this review once I have the chance to take advantage of the fitness classes and equipment.
I had an awful experience after sending my kid here for swimming classes.The class was hardly for 7 days and there were 4 different trainers during these days.i have seen new trainers coming in each week and without any clues where to begin with,they start with basic and most of the time it was just ring throw and playing around.No lessons or swimming,and at the final day the original trainer will come back and decide that students have to repeat their levels.She never had time or patience for students or even time to communicate with parents.Then why do you have her handle the training?i did tell this to the supervisor, but no use.I haven't seen this happening in any other rec centre in VA beach,and would advise any parents who looking for swimming lessons for kids to stay away from this centre.
Next about the facility, it's too small.Bathrooms are too small and there is only one private bathing/changing room.So if you decide to take your kid for a bath ,you may have to take them to adult showering room,where adults may be bathing nude.
Absolutely not kid friendly rec Center,should be out of the swimming lessons for kids.
Pool area is setup in the front visiting area, you will have to bare their yelling all the time while you wait for classes.Absolutely thoughtless design.
Great Place, more like a 4.5, gym and pool are great, i do wish these room was a little bit bigger!
Informative staff, clean facilities and not to crowded.
This recreational center is always clean and staff is always welcoming and professional
Highly recommend!
Great facilities, very friendly and professional staff.

Love this gym. The price is great. I wish the cardio room had more treadmills and stair climbers though. Over all though this gym is great

Very nice pool area, swim classes and sports group classes available.
When I used to live in the neighborhood I would go here all the time, it really is a great rec center, and probably the best rec center I've ever been to, still to this day!!! Every time I'm in town I always give it to stop! :)

I really enjoy this rec center. It is clean, the people working there have always been helpful and nice. I love that they have separate areas for individual types of workouts, indoor heated pool and lots of classes to take if you like group exercise. My favorite rec center in Virginia beach!

Friendly staff and clean location! Parking lot is pretty cool too.
Love this rec center. Basketball courts are nice and the pick games are pleasant. Kids have great time with swim lessons there. Wife enjoys the group cardio classes.
Had my son birthday party here. The staff was awesome. I didn't have to do anything it was nice. They were very attentive to the kids.
Always World class. The staff are a model for professionalism!
I have been coming here since I was 10 years old. The place has the best facility for pool lanes. Weight room is old school and far enough for anyone to jump in and get a good workout. My favorite place to go.
PROS: Huge indoor pool, very nice area for the kids to play, swimming lessons offered cheaply, membership is cheap. Summer camp here is great for kids; field trips twice a week and pool time 3 days a week.
CONS: Workout area is small. Sometimes it's like you have to take a number just to use a machine. They need to get rid of a fitness room or something and add more workout machines instead, or take down how partitioned off each room is. Workout equipment needs improvement. The bar for the lat pulldown doesn't even have padding. Often when people want to use the bar or smith machine for squats, they put a cushion on the bar so it does't cut into their shoulders. There is only one of those pads and it's not even a good one. They need to get one of the foam ones. Group swimming lessons have too many students. They should limit it to 5 per instructor. Right now, there are 8 kids being taught by one instructor in my kid's lessons. The game room where the kids can go play while the parents work out is on a different schedule than the gym. Often it isn't open when you want to go work out, and thus, your kid has no place to go. The hours this facility is open is too restrictive. I would prefer to see a 5am to 10pm schedule with the game room closing at 9pm instead of 8pm for parents who can only go to the gym after they get off work. The lockers cost a quarter every time you use them and that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of. But guess what? Nobody ever pays for them anyway. The showers are touch or press-timed, which is annoying as heck. You touch a spot, the shower turns on for about one minute, then turns back off. But some of the touch spots don't work that well, so you can be touching the spot repeatedly about 20 times before the shower turns back on. Yes, this means you can't control the temperature of the water coming out, either. This will bother some people, but I find the water temperature is just as hot as I would set it if I were able to anyway.
Lastly, I would like to see more activities offered to the kids that us parents can pay for. Right now, I think there is an art class and a martial arts class for 8 and above and that's it. I would totally pay for my child to attend classes while being watched at the center if they offered more. I like the martial arts classes, would prefer the minimum age be lowered. Would like to see pottery classes for kids, archery classes, science classes, LEGO engineering classes where kids can build projects, that sort of thing...
I don't have a membership but I go often to this establishment to play basketball. The gym is great and the overall facility is wonderful. The pool is nice and so are the work out areas. Non-residents don't have to pay an arm and a leg for memberships either. Day passes are a little bit much though. But it's not that bad still.
