Village Gym Bournemouth

I wanted to give this place a two star review. But after seeing all I wrote I have to give it just one star. The place is too expensive for what they offer. I went on the free day pass but what a disappointment. To start with the staff doesn't tell you you need a wrist band to use the lockers. It's £5 deposit cash only.The showers are full of mold and the ceiling across the building is very old and dirty. Small sauna and small steam room. The jacuzzi has been out of actions for weeks it seems to me that they are running on low. The gym also needs redoing as it looks old. The free day pass offer so many things that I did not see or were offered. Really bad.

Awful Gym, Awful service. I was met by a red haired lady who toured me and my husband around the premises as if we were dementia patients. Her attitude was awful and to think she’s a manager (I know this because she continuously went on about it). DO NOT VISIT

I am really disappointed with the quality and standards of this gym.It is an expensive gym and it has been 2 weeks with the virtual spinning broken, 2 weeks that steam room is not working.One of the washbasin on the toilet of women block for a long time.The taps in the toilet are dirty (limescale ) which is easy to clean with a special product.Machines in the gym are broken.Additionally, there is very little numbers of classes with a real instructor, most of the classes are with virtual instructor.I really regret I joined to this gym.To tell the true, the cheaper gyms in Bournemouth are much more better than this one.I am a person who appreciate the good quality as you can see in my reviews and when it is a good service or product I will recommend it but when it isn't then I will tell the true.

It's great! Clean facilities, nice staff and the general atmosphere is calm. Only a 4 out of 5 for the fact that the lockers electronic bracelet sometimes do not work at all. Which isn't great considering all my wallet, keys and clothes are in there. But otherwise very good

Great place to train. Modern and looked after gym kit. 4 types of running machines and bikes, classes taking from body combat to yoga and spinning. Probably trainers available from £25 - £35. Members get 25% hotel rooms food and drink at the bar. The spa with sauna and actual cold shower is great. Steam room not my thing and Jacuzzi only big enough for 5. However 25m pool and all in all for £55/ month is good I think.

It was not ad good, as before.Sauna was very crowded and not hot enough.The water was colder, than it should be.All in all it was not fun for me.

Decent size gym and the pool area. Large changing rooms.Gym has the main equipment, loads of cardio, little less weights. No smith machine, but has squat racks and other stuff also.The only real downfall was that two times we've been there, we were not lucky to catch a jacuzzi working. Apart from that, it is a good place to be.

I was eager to sign up today. After visiting with my brother in a bid to use a guest pass, I got declined because I had no driving license or passport to show. The guest pass, or website does not disclose that this is a requirement for entry... there is a sign at reception although the sign is about as useful as a concrete parachute, given that i’d already driven 30 minutes to get there.Crazy that I didn’t get ID’d for the beer I purchased at the bar though?I’ve worked in the fitness industry for over 10 years and have never come across such nonsense, even in London.The reasoning seemed even more ridiculous because “somebody had broken into a locker so it’s a cover” yet the car park has cctv and likely ANPR, which would seem like a more logical way to deter people without assuming upon first impression that I’m going to break into someone’s locker on my first day.The staff didn’t want to help at all and clearly had a very corporate mindset with no intention of actually helping a potential customer, I’m sure that once this gets read there will be a google friendly response that makes them seem approachable and appealing. I’m shocked at the lack of engagement, at the very least they could have offered me a tour which, as far as I’m aware is not only good service but one of the best ways to initiate a sign up.Long story short, I ended up going somewhere else and immediately felt welcome, had no trouble getting in and best of all, I didn’t feel like I was an 18 year old entering a night club.

Really considering joining here the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Giving us good options for membership and the facilities are lovely and clean.The food is excellent a bit pricey but worth it at the same time....and frozen pina coladas!!

I've recently joined this health club and I'm impressed with facilities. The pool is the perfect temperature and size, the changing rooms are clean and the new steam room is lovely! The gym is packed with the latest equipment and there is a good range of classes. The staff I've encountered so far have been friendly and helpful, with a special shout out going to Carolyn who has gone over and above to make sure I can get the most out of my new membership and has made me feel relaxed about venturing back into a gym!
