Come here for swimming comps occassionally, outdoor pool is alright but not the best. Always life guards around and wave pool is pretty good

They have been running for many years. I have been here over holidays and always had a blast. There's also a small canteen there which is good for something to eat. Swimming prices are cheap.

Very popular place on weekends and holidays as all the locals go down to this pool as they have what is known as " the wave pool" and many other pools to suit all ages. The facilities are clean and there are many lifeguards around so kids are safe.

Yesterday I looked up website for closing time and it said 7pm. I arrived at 5.55pm thinking I had an hr to swim in the warm sunshine only to be told five miutes later to get out of the outside pool as it was closing so staff could go home on time. i then sat outside to dry off as I have no interest in heated indoor swimming and was told to vacate the area outside. I asked for a refund of the $6.90 I paid and was told no as the inside pool was available. Everytime I have had a day off and gone to the outside pool during feb it was closed for school regattas and they do not let the public use it! I feel they should allow one lane at least. They wont even allow public to sunbake outside during school carnivals.

This is a modern swimming centre that has both indoor and outdoor pools. It also has a wave pool and some kids pool areas. The wave pool is great and set up like a beach where you enter and it's very shallow then gets deeper, children must be supervised. Great fun for adults and kids alike.

Multiple pools with many lanes, indoor and outdoor, so there is something for everyone. Very good snack bar. Awesome wave pool that you can spend ages in, which is a lot of fun and very safe with watching lifeguards. Toilets and shower areas are generally clean. Don't forget your goggles!

I have visited "The Wave Pool" many times and have always really enjoyed it. In the school holidays they do blow up slides and courses. They have great lunches but can be a bit pricey.

Interesting place, its always really busy. We used to swim outdoors. Want to use the wave pool, or rather the kids do! Lots of things for sale, so if you forget something you can probably get it there. The change rooms are huge and generally clean. They have a huge childcare centre, and a handy kiosk with heaps of seating, so you could sit & have a coffee while the kids go swimming.

Great place to take children, with the wave pool. I also found the warm water pool fantastic, when I hurt my back, I was able to use this pool, to do my exercises.

Both my kids do swimming lessons here. The quality of the lessons depends a lot on the teacher they have, but we have got to know most of them so if we get a teacher that's not up to scratch we usually change times to get a better one. (Sometimes you have to wait a few months to change as the classes are mostly full.)
I find it annoying that when I take my toddler there outside of lessons, I have to pay full price for myself (as well as children's price for him) just because I am entering the water. Of course I have to go in, he's only 2, but I can guarantee you, I'm not swimming! I think I should be eligible for a Non-swim entry, since I'm not swimming.

I am a member here and I do 1 or 2 classes most days, I think the intructors are great but the admin staff are slack and don't seem to cater for what the members want. There is only 1 class a week available after work in the water and if you work, tough luck....

Approximate cost: $80 per month

I first enrolled my son in baby swim classes here, upon of approx 8 months after establishment and the teacher was polite, and friendly. But my son also got sick a lot with respitory illnesses, from swimming lessons. The lessons are expensive which really is just water play and familisation. I have since taken him out from swimming lessons from here and taken him to another local swimming school.

Great swimming pools and wave pool for a casual swim with the kids. Outside pool is great on hot days. Indoor kids pool are lots of fun and a great depth for the preschoolers. Wave pool sessions are lots of fun.

my son started his swimming lessons here when he was 8 months old, the teacher was great, but the cost is extreme high. I only enrolled my son in one term of swimming lessons, its expensive for a casual swim also and the cafe is expensive and you have to wait for 40mins for a coffee !!

I have been a member of the center for 1 year and over the time i have never seen enough staff on the gym floor, the gym equipment is never updated, for a center that charges 80 plus per month the equipment needs to be 5 star to justify the cost. Prices rises every year, Personal trainers are 2 busy talking amongst themselves or are on there phones staff look like they don't even train themselves especially the reception staff just a really disappointing and waste of time joining them..

Approximate cost: $80

What, it's run by a council? Well that was my first thought. Fantastic centre with everything - 2 pools, a gym and even a wave pool!
The staff are friendly and they offer all the "extra's" like personal trainers, etc!

Approximate cost: $5

This place has it all! An indoor wave pool, a great gym, an outdoor heated 50 meter swimming pool, a indoor 25 meter pool and not too expensive. I like swimming and going to the gym and for me this place is a great fit.

I am a member of the Health club and find the staff, equipment and services fantastic. I have now lost 10 kg in the past 6 months and could not have done it with out the support of the staff, in particular Kim, my personal trainer. It all began with getting my bum kicked in Bootmarc which gave me the motivation to continue exercise.

Approximate cost: $18 per week

Swim lessons are fantastic! The staff are amazing and the facility is the best in Melbourne. My sons swim teacher has done a remarkable job with my kids progression after he stalled for a number of years at Swim World. I would highly recommend lessons to anyone or just a visit in the waves.

Approximate cost: $12

My son was enrolled when it was Swimland and then when it transferred across to Swimworld. From all communication we received, we were pointed out that there wasn't a huge change when the ownership changed. The majority of the staff are the same and the systems/levels are all very similar. The comments I have made ARE TRUE and ARE MY OPINION. So the facts are correct. You obviously work for Swimworld.
