★ ★ ★ ★ ★ There is something wrong with the receptionist Jackie.
Showed up on the morning, paid 6 dollar to use the basketball court with some training, there is one other person using the half court, so I went out, ask her politely to turn on the light in order for me to use other half court, she refused at first; I went out, asked again, she turned it on and called me pain in the ass.
I eventually left with 6 dollar money return, she ruined my day for no reason, have no idea what she went through or what breakfast she had
She could have told me earlier while i was on the counter if she want me to use only certain area, instead of being mean and insult me afterwards, she even asked me why wouldn't I join the other guy and only use the half court. there is only one basket, why would I interrupt other after i paid to get in while other facility is available?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Staff is helpful. Always get 1 lane for myself. Sometimes water get quite cold in winter but I don’t mind. Bathroom shower is hot and strong. Really love this swimming pool. Wish it would have more time open for public.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ All good except of course the restricted hours for we lane swimmers. However I do accept the fact that the Club needs to run a lean ship for a while. Hopefully the hours will extend by Springtime.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Love it! Just the best place where to go swimming in NZ... Except for the water temperature.. Too cold...
Edit.
Hi, did you guys have changed management recently? I got told you did. Well, in my previous experience, the main pool had a range between 29 and 23 degrees throughout the year, it was too sensisitve to outdoor weather temperature, but if the situation has changed, this is good!! Looking forward to come back!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Warm welcome from the admission staff, flattered that she didn't automatically offer me a seniors pass ?.
Poolside staff friendly, and very helpful, even introduced me to the lady whose lane I shared.
This is not a fancy pool, but it is clean, the water is not at all cloriney, I swam for 35 mins, no goggles, no red eyes.
Personally I found the water temperature perfect.
The changing facilities are basic, but the showers are hot.
I'll be going again.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The tutor is detailed in her descriptions of swimming techniques which enables me to understand clearly what I need to change to improve my own techniques.
By the second lesson I've started on drills that have already made a noticable difference in the power of my arms pulling through the water.
I'm very happy with the quality of the adult swimming lessons.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Don't waste your valuable time trying to get into the basketball courts because it will always be bloody booked . Although it's cheap the courts are terrible and always dirty due to a lot of people going there . The rims are double rims so you won't even make most of your shots. The competition there is also bad as most of the people who go there are bums and can't even dribble the ball properly. Absolute trash place you will be better off playing on the outdoor courts outside of the gym even though my friend got his wallet stolen while playing there . It just goes to show how terrible this place is . Overall not even a 1 star I only gave it a 1 star because that's the lowest you can go . Realistically it should be a -10 star.
