Milne Bay Aquatic & Fitness Centre

Positive experience: A estrutura não é excelente, mas os profissionais atendem bem. Possui piscina coberta e uma piscina olímpica, além de sauna, jacuzzi, piscina recreativa para crianças , academia de ginástica, vestiários.

Positive experience: The children love coming here but always leave with bleeding toes due to the roughness of the kids pool entrance, where the floor slopes down from the steps into the water. It's like sandy paint. I understand that it's a non-slip coating but it's very rough on childrens' skin so we always have to bring band aids to patch them up when we get out. Not sure if anything can be done about it but just thought I'd let other families know!

Negative experience: Just warning parents that if your child brings a ring floatie to play with at Milne Bay, the male lifeguard may think they are unable to swim and may pull them to the side of the pool for a "swim test", asking the child to "prove" they can swim, all without gaining the parent's consent! This was in the shallow indoor kids section of the pool. This unwarranted and unnecessary approach is highly uncomfortable and inappropriate, and makes both parents and children feel unwelcome. I've never seen this happen at any other pool I've been to and will not be returning.

Fantastic experience: Friendly. Great swimming lessons for kids. Excellent coffee.

Negative experience: The THERAPY POOL should not be used by parents as a KIDDIES POOL!

Fantastic experience: Lovely staff and lovely pool

Negative experience: So sad to see the gym neglected it feels like a morgue music doesn't work staff try there best but the cost cutting from management has let the place run down there is always an issue no real thought has gone into floor plan so sad

Positive experience: Friendly staff good availability of program pool

Fantastic experience: Great recreation center. Affordable sauna and spa. We enjoyed the heated pools! Staff are polite!

Negative experience: We’ve tried to take our toddler here multiple times. The kids pool heater is always broken and the water feature in the main pool is never turned on. The bathroom with a change table was so dirty. How does Toowoomba not have better facilities than this??

Negative experience: I used to take my kids to Milan bay I will never take them there again after the amount of chlorine I seen them put in that pool was absolutely ridiculous I could strongly smell the chlorine off my kids when they got in the car and on their towels then the hair changed from Brown to Orange within a few days the eyes was read as beetroots be very careful you will poison your kids

Negative experience: Zero star rating..Canteen not open..Mushroom not spraying water, website says wave pool, there is no wave pool..website says waterslide...this is there but only certain times. Website does not say this...major issues tots pool sign says 29-31° we took our baby in there only to realise it was freezing and she was shivering immediately..we were then told after the fact that the heating is broken. How about put up a sign saying heating broken and the actual temperature. Massive sign says put down your phone watch your kids...Meanwhile the entire time the so called life guard is on her phone

Negative experience: Freezing toddlers pool with no signage, canteen was closed, mushroom and water slide not going, for some reason the doors to the outside pool are open with freezing winds blowing in. Inside female bathroom closed so my wife had to take my 10 month old through the freezing winds to the outside showers. Defs gone downhill since our last visit over a year ago

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, clean showers, 2 pools one for the family and the deeper 50m pool. Only $2 to come in too awesome bargain being from brissy this was a nice welcomed surprise.

Positive experience: On a visit earlier this week lifeguards had both doors to the outside pool open which made it very cold while in the pool. I understand that lifeguards need to monitor the outside pool but the doors are left open even in the middle of winter when the outside pool is closed. I constantly ask the life guards to shut one of the doors which they do .

Positive experience: Great place for a swim if you need to cool down. It would be nice to see the slide open more often.

Negative experience: Recently went to the pool, it was good to cool down but the rest of the experience was just sad. The place was run down and they don’t do the waves anymore which was truly sad to hear. That was a highlight of my childhood, the slide wasn’t running and there were only a few spots you can swim. The diving board are closed as well. The cafe was closed and didn’t open the whole time we were there which sucked because we had small children who wanted food. This place has definitely gone downhill and sadly it not the place it used to be.

Negative experience: I got kicked out for something I didn’t even do getting harassed for no real reason I rather Gatton pool where the staff are nice to u and not getting harassed by them

Fantastic experience: Good facilities, and good place to bring the kids

Fantastic experience: good gig... sunny people and a happy pool.. best sauna in the village of Toowoomba to

Negative experience: Tots ‘heated pool’ was freezing, colder than the large indoor pool. Disappointing trip.

Negative experience: I the staff is horrible one male stuff actually shouted at me for going to the deep part I latterly paid for it and I know how to swim and they where like go to one meter part and they never open the slide for customers to go through its a horrible place to swim at and I would never go their again and one other thing their was a male stuff who actually harrased me for no reason they are terrible at their job and disrespectful

Negative experience: Very annoyed with this facility baby pool has been freezing not set at temp they say it is also they have change the baby awareness class so people that are strapped for cash can no longer pay for this service

Fantastic experience: AMAZING!!!

Fantastic experience: Aqua is always great.

Negative experience: I don't think people should be able to bring in their own speakers and just blast the music! It's so loud and their taste in music...well they have none!!!!

Fantastic experience: I have only been to two gym classes but the classes are fantastic.

Negative experience: My family and I came here today. Staff at front desk were rude and disinterested and the female lifeguard was rude as well.

Fantastic experience: Hydro pool was a lovely temperature. Will be back to try out the spa as well.

Negative experience: Ridiculous that the cafe is only opened until 2. Was looking forward to a coffee with my partner while the kids were swimming. You would think with afternoon peak of people coming to swim that a cafe would stay open at least until half hour before close. Won’t be coming back.

Negative experience: Staff seemed friendly, though did not seem content in their job. Had to wear a band to say Im a person watching a 14 and 12 year old. Who knows how that identifies you as the person watching the two kids you coke there with. Crowded, weren't allowed to dive into the outside pool, no cover over the outside pool, no food and beverages after 2pm, parking was almost non existent. Indoor pool area was very humid, smelled of strong chorine and very noisy. Changroom are small and in dire need of refurbishment.

Positive experience: I am sincerely disappointed that TRC did not undertake change room remodelling whilst the centre was unused due to Covid 19. There is little privacy in the main change room area and it's impossible to shower and dress in those tiny cubicles without getting your street clothes wet. Seriously for what we are charged in entry fees things are not really all that good...

Negative experience: Since my last visit I have reduced my experience as today when we went there were 3life guards on onl. y they weren't watching the water they were cleaning yes cleaning .by 930 am there were more kids in the pool and there was one life guard watching both the inside and outside pools .the cafe only 1person serving mainly coffees as there was no food on shelf or in the heated cabinet not good enough it's school holidays and there is no safety and no food get better

Negative experience: For a local council area that doesn't even have a free water park for kids (even chinchilla has one) the pool is a major disappointment. Had like 20 car spaces (none of which were available and had to walk far) spent $6.50 for my toddler to use the toddler pool which is meant to be heated to a nice temperature for my little one, only for it to be very cold and other mums told me this regularly happens. Won't be wasting my time here often. I hope the council will invest in a better public pool and/or kids water park.

Negative experience: Waterslide should have been open and was the only reason we came. Shut due to lack of lifeguards but there were many lifeguards harassing swimmers for no reason. Should do the wave pool again and open the waterslide given its school holidays. Shouldn’t be giving free swimming to two lanes and taking up 3/4 of the indoor pool to laps and walking. Do not recommend for people going to have fun.

Positive experience: Fantastic local inner city facility, I love it but it's not perfect. Staff are brilliant, opening hours could be a bit longer, mornings are busy. Parking is not ideal. Fees are okay. Some elements are a little tired. Ideal facility for both athletes, wannabe athletes, those wanting to walk laps or families with kids. There's 2 main pools, one 25m (heated) and one 50m (outdoor). Also a toddler pool, a spa, sauna and gym as well as other rooms for aerobics (I guess) etc. Overall it's a great place and I'm thankful for it.

Fantastic experience: Joined recently - no fan of these places! However, gym is great - lots of equipment, never very busy. Pool - inside and out - so good. Had to do some post-op physio/recovery exercise and staff could not be more helpful. Annual membership at $900 is just incredible value.

Positive experience: Used the pool and sauna. Outside pool is big and quite deep. I side is rather for kids and teens. The sauna is small but ok. There is also a heated relaxation pool next to it. Food and beverage selection is below avarage. Kind of ok place. Sauna could use a makeover.

Positive experience: The staff were really helpful, the facilities are kind of old but it was fine to do laps except when it was booked out by schools.

Negative experience: 1 star for the nice lady at the front counter and 1 because it was so empty. Life guards harassing female staff. Overpriced for 1 adult 1 baby and a child = $18.50. Cafe? ha.ha.HA! $6 for a cup of chicken chips...8 portions are you kidding me? $5 for a bottle of water and nothing else on the menu except hot chips available. Never again. Toowoomba sucks.

Positive experience: Staff are lovely and helpful.

Negative experience: Since reopening , kids now have to be 14 and over to stay on their own was 12 and over 6 months ago , can.t get food after 2pm and not much to choose from even in drinks and even more expensive ,less life savers on, no birthday party events anymore , the water castle and be made smaller , good to see slid open but no wave pool , all the work done on it big let down , all to save money on wages and job , disgusting

Negative experience: I had a bad experience at Milne Bay. The lifeguard there showed disrespect and unfairness toward us, probably regarding our race? She claimed that 16, 15 and 14 year old children was "too young" go to the 2 metre end. The lifeguard also told us this after watching us for more than 30 minutes, and all the while another group of young kids were diving dangerously. She also came up with 5 other reasons which was as absurd as this. The young lady also showed great discomfort and annoyance towards us, which we found extremely disappointing. The place itself is okay, but you might face rude lifeguards and/or swimmers.

Fantastic experience: Soon, I am going to a party here,for my best friend.

Fantastic experience: Good Fun activities

Fantastic experience: Heaven on earth

Fantastic experience: Great music, nice facilities, right in the Bay

Fantastic experience: it’s so helpful ❤️

Fantastic experience: The water in the 50m pool was nice this evening.

Fantastic experience: A wonderful experience I fell in love with the richness of the place. I'm from Brisbane soon to move to Toowoomba but it was a country pool but you could feel the history of the place. My and my families experience was more than just a swim. If the grand stand could talk.

Fantastic experience: Everything very clean and well organised.

Positive experience: We used to come here as kids!! Can’t wait to see it after its renovations, well needed!! But great place!

Negative experience: - 1 Too dear - 1

Positive experience: Clean and tidy. Most equipment you will need.

Positive experience: Quite today, good to see the spar operating again.

Positive experience: Friendly staff very welcoming while maintaining a Covid safe facility

Positive experience: A great facility for young and old. I haven't dealt much with the gym side but always looks clean and tidy.

Positive experience: Outside pool was lovely, clean change room, friendly staff

Fantastic experience: Great variety of equipment in the gym to use and not crowded. Pool is perfect temperature and love having a swim after a workout! Glad to be a member!

Negative experience: It's about 10 days there is no hand washing liquid in none of the male toilets and showers. After recent pandemic, and despite all the commotion and signs in the pool about social distancing ,contact tracing, filling the forms before entering....., nobody takes car to provide hand wasing liquid that is most basic and most effective way of stopping transmissible diseases , that is washing hands .....

Negative experience: Wave pool, slide, spa etc not open due to covid, understandable. Went to myline Bay Sunday around lunch, cafe closed soon after arriving. Outside there was 6 lanes open for lap swimming, personally I think that was too many considering the amount of people using the pool for casual swim. Most of the indoor pool was closed off. One of the lifeguards was quite rude. For myline Bay to be the main pool in our area its a big thumbs down sadly.

Negative experience: Not much happening at the pool due to covid, no slide or waves going. Cafe had limited food as they were closing over Christmas and were running out their stock. Mens toilets were not well cleaned and all hand soap were out over the 3 hours we were there. Kids had fun though.

Fantastic experience: Great facility. I mostly swim in the mornings and generally the pool is uncrowded, clean and well maintained

Fantastic experience: Great variety of equipment in the gym to use and not crowded. Pool is perfect temperature and love having a swim after a workout! Glad to be a member!

Fantastic experience: Pretty good hydrotherapy pool. Spa doesn't have any therapeutic jets so forget that. What's with the 5 second showers? Push about 5 times before it gets warm & keep pushing every few seconds to keep going. Staff friendly & helpful.

Fantastic experience: Love exercising here. The staff are brilliant and so are the people that go there.

Fantastic experience: Great faculties and great staff, always had a great experience highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Great facilities! Clean and tidy. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Great

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great covered swimming pool, could probably use some non slip matting but otherwise great safe place for kids to cool off. Can't complain about entry price - VERY CHEAP.

Fantastic experience: Great place to take the kids

Fantastic experience: Always friendly and helpful while maintaining clean and socially safe standards

Fantastic experience: Being going there for fifteen years, great staff, good coffee

Positive experience: Great to be back.

Negative experience: Rude staff, unprofessional customer service.

Positive experience: Amazing, I absolutely love swimming at Milne bay pool.

Positive experience: It is a decent place to stay and hang out with friends.

Negative experience: For such a large country town with huge parks I found the pool has zero places for families to sit and relax between swims. Rather disappointing.

Negative experience: Went to Milne bay pool with the family. I really wanted time in the spa so paid at the front counter for a swim and spa. Spa was open but not working, no bubbles. Went back to the front counter to ask about it. Was told they knew nothing about it not working. Plus When I went to get my towel, saw a laminated sign saying spa was not working. So I also paid, along with several other people , for a service I did not get!! And Management’s lack of communication!!

Positive experience: I only used both of the pools at the centre. They were very nice and lovely to swim in. However the inside one seemed quite dirty around the walls. Although the one outside is amazing, it was always a really nice temperature and and clean.

Fantastic experience: Good nature

Fantastic experience: Good nature

Negative experience: Staff need to correct large ladies walking 4 abreast in swimming lane .the queens of ignorance!!!!!!

Negative experience: Poor facilities, outdated; about time Toowoomba got a decent aquatic centre.

Positive experience: Seriously, $4 extra to use a different body of water? I have never been to a public pool before which charges extra to use a spa and sauna. Also most other pools in SEQ are generally $5.50 and under. Why the price increase Toowoomba?

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and great learn to swim program. Sometimes gets a bit overloaded on a hot summers day, however that is due to it being one of the few things the youth of Toowoomba can actually do.

Fantastic experience: We took the whole family their today. The kids loved the big water slide, the wave pool and the inflatable water slide. The undercover pool was great for the kids and my 3 year old loved the shallow pool options. They have spa’s for adults and a sauna, as well as a full size pool outside.

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and great learn to swim program. Sometimes gets a bit overloaded on a hot summers day, however that is due to it being one of the few things the youth of Toowoomba can actually do.

Positive experience: Very popular with the locals

Positive experience: Really noisy but other than that it was great

Positive experience: Great facility for the fun and the serious swimmer alike.

Positive experience: Its got the basic amenities but nothing too flash. A bit dated in MHO

Negative experience: On the website it said that New Year day it is open 5:30 am to 9pm and we went to attend Milne bay and it was closed no one was there it also mentioned hours may very surely it is not that hard to put set hours for public holidays

Negative experience: This Facility has heaps of potential. Unfortunately, the management seems to have a focus on keeping people away. The swimming pools are ok and it is nice to have lines for lap swimming. The sauna was just recently renovated: It was made smaller and cooler (just 60C°). The spa is also not really worm. The gym was great a while ago, it had awesome trainers and classes. Now, a new manager (Kym Bonsey) decided to stop all well visit classes and made all good trainers go. Most of the equipment needs maintains. The second gym room (under grand stand) is not used anymore. Just a shame for such an important place.

Fantastic experience: Good pool

Fantastic experience: Excellent

Fantastic experience: Love swimming here in the outdoor 50m pool! water temp is perfect and the late night swims are divine. The new Boga Mat classes are AWESOME . Would recommend to anyone to try them!

Fantastic experience: My son and my 3 sisters kids had a fab time will definitely go back

Fantastic experience: Brilliant

Fantastic experience: Great place for fun with family.
