Best places: Indoor swimming pools in Sydney, Australia

👍 Good facilities, indoor and outdoor pool, both heated (warmer water indoors) pools, spa, sauna, gym, lockers... Would have liked a deeper pool and maybe diving but 2 meters outdoor is ok. Probably not worth the safety hazard with deep water and diving.

😠 Really sick of never being able to book into classes because they're constantly full. It's great the gym clearly has doubled in the number of customers, but make adjustments to this. I.e have more classes in the third pilates room, or turn the other yoga room into a reformer room since theres much h...

😠 Unfortunately this gym has gone down hill in recent years and especially now. It's far too over crowded, and recently I had to wait over 40 min to use the squat rack before giving up and doing cardio. A lot of members don't wipe down equipment after use, and treat the gym like their own, hogging mu...

🫤 I used to take my daughter to this pool 3 years ago. The pool is nice and clean. The playing/waiting area was always fun for my daughter. The changing area can get a little busy but not a problem as the facility is fairly small. The problem is one of the instructors. She was not able to emphatise. S...

😠 I am been using this gym for a very long time nearly 6 years. A year ago I took a break for few months and re-joined the club. Now I am moving house further away from the gym and working from home most of the day. It takes nearly an hour to get the gym every day and I decided to cancel the gym membe...

👍👍 Our 4 year old son Julian has been coming here for a few months now. The progress he has made in the time he’s been there has been astounding. Each week we are surprised at the improvement of his swimming. He has a great teacher in Mel who is absolutely fantastic with all the kids. Mel is awesome. T...

😠 I’ll not recommend this place to anyone. The instructions were so lazy, my kid was still at the same level for more than a year. It’s not a child problem it’s the instructions problem. You pay for nothing. I don’t know why it has a high rate! I asked a lot of people and they told me that they have t...

😠 Gym Equipment Graveyard - I’m guessing that every large gym chain must have a dumping ground for old gym cardio machines when they upgrade equipment at their larger gyms… Well… Virgin Active clearly employs Frenches Forest/ Northern Beaches as their dumping ground. I’ve been a VA member for 7 years...

😠 Sarah at the front counter was plain racist/ discriminatory and rude. she is disrespectful, arrogant and dirty/ unhygienic. I would not recommend this gym to anyone who wants a decent gym to train. Surely not exclusive in any way. Luke the manager is also clueless when it come to management. This...

👍👍 I LOVE this swimming center. My daughter was at another swim school nearby for one year, and never progressed from that class. She also never gained confidence in the water or learnt skills I wasn’t able to teach her myself. Since starting at Carlile in carlingford, she progressed to the next class...

👍 We have been members for many years. There is a nice 25 metre pool and separate children's pools, a big spa, sauna, well equipped gym, indoor courts, cafe, and outside netball courts next door. There are great swim schools at the pool, which have taught our kids from when they were learning to swim...
