Fawkner Leisure Centre

Negative experience: It is closed and under construction. They are building new pools.

Negative experience: It's place for old people .if wanna work out then find some other place. Pool is too crowded on the weekends..

Positive experience: Teachers are friendly and some of customer service, but the lady of the tab is so rude with children and parents

Negative experience: Pool is never open

Negative experience: Not good management at all they cancelled the classes for my children with out telling us and I oready paid for that not good swimming at all not experienced and not responsible staff at all

Fantastic experience: Everyone was so nice and it,s good for who has a injury

Negative experience: Yesterday in 37 degree heat we were told that we would wait just over an hour the pool was at full capacity. I said that's ok we will wait. Then after half an hour the manager decides she will no longer let anyone in the pools to go home. How dare they tell people there is a waiting time then change there mind there are kids waiting in that heat. This fawkner pool has very bad management it's not the first time having to be knocked back. They need to have a sign outside the pools or on there website.

Negative experience: The outdoor area opens too late

Negative experience: I would really like to go on the weekend and I finish work I arrive at 2.30 at home and as a request I would like you to extend openings up to 20? because in the week it is difficult to go.

Positive experience: Play badminton here, management seems to be not interested in providing proper solution to install nets. The way we install nets is quite hazardous and can cause serious injury to someone.

Positive experience: The women only sundays is great, you get to be free and swim until your heart's content or until 6pm. Still lots of fun.

Positive experience: I have had an injury recently and wanted to get back into lap swimming for recovery. This pool was great because of its higher temperature (30 to 31 deg). Higher than usual for lap swimming but great for rehab. It also means you can jump in without cringing from cooler water. The pool and the changerooms are a bit dated and could do with an update but they are reasonably well maintained and the staff are helpful.

Positive experience: Tried the indoor pool as a casual swimmer this winter. The casual rates were very reasonable which was great. the pool was heated however did not look/feel like it was clean. I dont know what exactly needs to be done to make the experience better, but i hope it does get better.

Negative experience: Went today for the first time. Toddler pool was filthy, truly disgusting, with duck poo, leaves and floaties. Lady on the desk neglected to tell us they were just about to close the kids pools even though I specifically asked her if there was anything we needed to know and was holding a 10 month old. She also didn't tell us that the indoor pool was womens only that arvo. None of the staff I saw indoors were wearing masks.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff and great equipment at the gym and great facilities such a pool, sauna and spa. Always go here whenever I feel like relaxing and cooling off. The prices could be a bit cheaper but since you're getting all these facilities, I think the place is worth it. Recommended

Fantastic experience: Men's session on Saturday 4 pm to 6pm

Positive experience: Dead as a doornail

Negative experience: Dont bother to pay for spa, you get kicked out for freeloaders. 2 at a time.

Negative experience: I don’t know what and how much of it they add into the pool but within a week the water has bleached my husband’s hair and has burnt out the hair on his limbs, it is so bad that it looks like it has been waxed off. I can only imagine what that water does to ur skin. It’s just unsafe, and this kind of training does more harm than good.

Negative experience: Pool a bit outdated. But that’s not the issue. The issue is kids and adults constantly in the swimming lanes. Everytime we go we have to ask people to move out of the lanes so we can do our laps. Many others at the facility have the same issue. The staff need to identify the lap lanes with signs and also ensure they are kept clear. Or else a swimmer is going to knock into a kid and someone will get hurt. Other than that. No problems.

Positive experience: This place needs maintenance asap!! The change room and showers are never clean. Some of the swimming teachers are just a waste of time and money, and God forbids you try to comment on anything, you'll be spoken to like you are begging from them! Their booking system is a failure! The 3 stars are only for the staff at the reception area, they're very welcoming and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Excellent

Fantastic experience: Great

Positive experience: Bit pricey for a swim plus spa.

Positive experience: Indoor pool is GREAT for rehabbing. There's a large shallow area (0.6m depth to 1m depth) for exercises with increased gravitational resistance, swim lanes (only about 4-5) for swimming, and a couple of lanes space for further aquaplay/hydrotherapy with a depth of 1m-1.5m. Not great for lap swimming as it isn't particularly long, however, excellent for those doing rehab. Indoor pool is also heated, only downside is only one set of stairs for entry and no ramp if using a wheelchair. There is a seated lift for those who are unable to use the stairs, but if there's a problem, there's no ramp for those who need a ramp.

Fantastic experience: Nice and peaceful

Fantastic experience: Good amenities. Gym, Indoor and outdoor pool. Play areas for kids and pump track are good. Indoor games area and party halls with ample parking space.

Negative experience: Some staff very rude.

Fantastic experience: this community hall is one of the est to hold small community events. huge free parking is available around and big parking space is also there. theres a big park outside to the kids can play while their parents can enjoy some event. reasonable charges to book this place but if you are looking to book it for your events please decide at your earliest as it's not easy to get it on weekends. kitchen facility is also available which is well equipped for all your needs. there are different entrances to the hall to cater tour needs both side parking is available

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff happy place

Fantastic experience: Great staff. Good classes and best Boot camp sessions ever.

Positive experience: Friendly staff and welcoming environment. However I found the Gym and pool area very small.

Positive experience: Great! All they have to do is get the staff there on time to open it, fix the boilers to heat the water and sauna, clean the band aids of the pool floor and a good time can be had

Positive experience: This pool is great and has good stuff and yes it is a bit dated but it is well maintained.

Positive experience: Outdoor pools are great for lap swimming...does need a revamp looks dated inside hopefully this is on Council priority list as it would be worth it.. Staff are VERY FRIENDLY ..thankyou

Negative experience: Not clean at all , very old and not maintain pool but the staff verry friendly.

Negative experience: The only thing good about the place is the staff, very friendly & helpful. The place however is not that good, ordinary!

Negative experience: FLC need to upgrade, the pool tiles are disgusting.

Negative experience: This place is a joke. Has been for years. Wont even open the outdoor pool early, even when its well over 24 degrees. You are a joke flc. You'd be better off building units on top of the outdoor pool area and renting them out you idiots.

Positive experience: Can get very busy, but staff are friendly and is always clean

Negative experience: this pool is ass

Negative experience: It sucks has not been cleaned

Fantastic experience: Outdoor pool is great for kids.

Fantastic experience: Kids attend swimming lessons here, they were very excited, the instructor is patient and friendly. Pools are clean and well maintained.

Positive experience: It's alright but really should clean the pool

Fantastic experience: The Sunday only women program is a brilliant idea, it is a place for women & young girls to break their isolation and feel connected.it is great ; I am wondering why they cut the end time from 7pm to 6pm, it is well attended.

Fantastic experience: Staff are very friendly and approachable. I have only used the pool facility here and have not explored their other leisure facilities such as the gym. However, I absolutely love the pool here! It's very spacious and has great range of water depth. It all makes for a great and comfortable overall experience for a place to relax and swim.

Positive experience: Great for basketball and futsal

Negative experience: This pool sucks! Hasnt been cleaned since i was in primary school! Tiles are stained, ground needs replacing and spa has been vroken for years! Ill never come back again!!!!

Negative experience: Dirty toilets and change room, rusty pools. Duck poo all over the place. All around the edges of toddler pool. Surface of the outdoor pools cut both husbands and kids feet. Rubbish floating around in pools Will not be back. I have taken my kids there for swim in lessons. Not anymore. Too dirty. Yuk
