Des Renford Leisure Centre: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Great pools....awesome cheap creche.
Fantastic experience: Kids love the kiddie pool. They are splash happy.. Swimming lessons rock! Easy to access. Coffees average.. But it is a pool kiosk, (it contains the right ingredient to keep me awake though)
Fantastic experience: Great place. Been there since I was a child back in the early 90s. It has become from a small pool center into a huge pool + gym center (brand new). I'm glad that the council has given their time into this place since it did need a new make over. Besides that, I've been going to the gym 4-5 times a week as a casual regular and love it. Barely anyone up there near the weights area so I have it mostly to myself haha! People who work there are lovely and welcoming - as well as willing to help you whenever you need it.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing the changes her from when I was a young child coming here to do my initial swimming lessons. All you had was the big olympic size outdoor pool, with the smaller kids pool area. Now with the new expansive Des Renford complex gymnasium it certainly caters for a vast majority of the local community.
Fantastic experience: Zumba class every Friday at 6:30PM is AMAZING - the people are so lovely and welcoming and the studio space and sound is 5STAR :)
Fantastic experience: Great swimming centre. There's inside and outside pools and a gym upstairs. Creche which apparently means babysitting centre in fancy council language so presumably you can throw your kids down while you go for a swim. You can have parties in the big pooll up the back which has a blow up castle
Fantastic experience: Great local swimming pool with gym ♀️. Fantastic facilities. Excellent staff, very helpful. Great coaching for up and coming Olympians. Lots of parking. Outside is surrounded by sports fields.(Heffron Park).
Fantastic experience: I was a member at the Des Renford for around 7 months in 2020/2021 and it was the best gym I have ever been too! The staff were always so friendly and happy to give advice / help where needed. The facilities were great and equipment was kept clean. I went pretty much every night during ‘peak’ hours and there was still always lots of room for training - even with covid restrictions! Huge toilets and shower block downstairs. So many classes & all actually worth going too! Added bonus of swimming pools. I would definitely recommend this gym any day!
Fantastic experience: The swimming experience was fine, but the hot chips are on a different level. I have no idea what secret methods they use to make those chips but they are easily superior to hungry jacks' chips.
Fantastic experience: Best crunchiest hot chips in Sydney. It is very strange that a swimming pool & fitness centre sells the best hot chips in Sydney.. so good it borderlines suspicious
Fantastic experience: I've been going to this place for several months now for gym/swimming sessions and I can't love it more.
Positive experience: They have been doing a great job handling COVID constraints.
Fantastic experience: A modern and clean leisure centre with multiple pools and a state of the art gym. Expensive, but worth the membership cost for the sheer variety of what they offer in return.
Fantastic experience: I have to say that you made my day with your friendly service. I can see a lot of improvement in your kiosk area and I love the fact that it is always clean every time that I come for a swim. I would recommend specially for families as they are really serious about safety. It's a friendly environment where you can have fun and enjoy yourself.
Fantastic experience: Very good public swimming pool kids friendly
Fantastic experience: A very nicely run place. Plenty of space to do a quick swim. The cafe had some good coffee. Would be visiting this place often. The staff was courteous as well.
Fantastic experience: Great centre
Fantastic experience: Love all the classes
Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in the area, 4 different pools - all heated. Suits all age groups from babies to competitive swimmers. And Segafredo coffee from cafe is fabulous. Plenty of car parking too... well at least outside of swimming carnival period.
Fantastic experience: My review is limited to my swimming experience: In one word: EXCELLENT! Pros: - 4 pools (all heated) - great for serious swimming; - great for family / children swimming / splashing (very child friendly) - opens very early in the morning - fantastic staff (very friendly, helpful and professional) - very affordable - decent public transport options; Cons: - rather small-ish parking (during peak hours it may be dicey to find a parking spot) - sometimes changing rooms are a bit on a grubby side (particularly in the afternoon) - no secure lockers (feels awkward to lag your bag with you at all times)
Fantastic experience: Great staff and very clean

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've been too. $22 a week for gym, pool and classes is very reasonable. Staff are friendly and helpful too. Plenty of great equipment to go around, I hardly have to wait my turn at the machines, even at peak hours. Free parking is almost always available. What impressed me the most was their efficiency. I requested for a refund from a program I had to pull out of due to illness. The manager and staff were very helpful, my request was processed and approved within a day! I wouldn't quit this gym if I wasn't moving interstate for a job. Highly recommended!!
Fantastic experience: Great fun
Fantastic experience: I love it. Its new and fresh and looked after well. Great gym, awesome pool and reasonable entry and membership prices.
