Griffith University Aquatic and Fitness Centre

Fantastic experience: Always a friendly community pool, always friendly, helpful (and patient) staff and instructors.

Fantastic experience: Fabulous tennis centre.

Fantastic experience: Great teaching staff

Fantastic experience: The kids love their swimming classes here. The team is excellent!

Positive experience: Good little gym.. the pool is great for some laps and has a spare lane to just relax or casual swim. Their opening and closing times obviously resolve around the usage of customers.

Fantastic experience: Cleanest public pool I've ever been. It wasn't busy when I went so a really peaceful and enjoyable experience. The staff are quite friendly too. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: The ladies go water walking here and good amenities

Fantastic experience: Great staff

Fantastic experience: Active Kids holiday program is great.

Fantastic experience: A hidden gem. 25 metre pool and toddler 30cm deep play pool area. Full gym facilities and swim training and lessons

Positive experience: The pool is situated in a pretty location on a hill with native bush around but when we went to do our training there in the morning, it was way too cold!!! We did swim but it was a shock to the system and definitely not the 28°they'd said it was over the phone. When I asked apparently the cover is not being used as it is broken and they are hoping to get a new cover . Also duck poo around the pool and one of the showers in the woman's change room kept turning on and off again. The woman's change room was not that clean. They do make good coffee and the person behind the counter was friendly.

Positive experience: Very happy with the teacher and how she taught my kids. Unfortunately that’s where it ended. The management is not easy to deal with at all. Be very aware of the make up lesson policy. If you can’t get there in there allotted time, you lose your money. Plus I’m going on holiday and they won’t pause only cancel lessons meaning I forfeit make up lessons. Can’t use them up at end. Facilities are good, heated pool great. In short. Management fail. Teacher, great

Fantastic experience: My grandkids have recently started swim lessons with Miss Emily. They absolutely love her and the lesson. From an adults point of view Emily is a very good swim teacher and it shows how much she loves her job. Couldn't be happier, very professional but also relates to the kids.

Negative experience: Very poor experience with this facility. Called on a Saturday morning to ask if they had a heated pool that I could use for gentle aqua 'walk the pool' exercises as Clem Jones hydro pool is closed for hydro over the weekend due to lots of learn to swim classes. The lovely lady on the phone assured me that there was indeed a 25m outdoor heated pool and that if I waited until after 9.30am I would be sure to be able to have a lane free or share a lane for disability/recovery physio gentle walking exercises. This was not to be the case, I was informed the pool was NOT heated and whilst there was a 'walk in' access lane I was made to feel completely unwelcome, and was summarily dismissed. My physio and coach and I returned to the car without the gentle workout we had planned and I was looking forward to. The outdoor heated pool did have capacity and I should probably have stood my ground, paid the somewhat higher fee rather than feeling discriminated against (having some mobility issues, definately older (in my fifties) and probably a couple of sizes larger than I used to be as well!) The pool and gym facilities are advertised as suitable for all ages with the ever popular toddler and children learn to swim classes as well as adult learn to swim classes, squad training, fun activities as well as an indoor heated pool - which I was informed is not available for the public, only private swimming classes. Both indoor and outdoor heated pools have a minimum depth of of 1.2m which - according to to the website allows those who need it, to stand up and have a rest during swim lessons. Disappointed yes very much, disgruntled even more so and still working on whether or not I was disciminated against due to my age, my mobility, my size, my exercise needs or whether or not I should have been had a private rather than public membership? As far as reviews go, this one has not been pleasant to provide and at the end of the day I am the one who has been disadvantaged and trust that other reviewers have more pleasant and commendable comments to make. No I shall not be returning to the inferior facilities and unpleasant staff member representing Griffith Acquatic and Fitness Centre at the time that I arrived - not shall I give them a go at a later time. FYI, my previous physio recommended Griffith Acquatic and Fitness Centre as a good heated pool, due to the fact that there is normally no-one there being the least popular heated swimming option in the local area! So I guess people do vote with their feet, arms and legs!

Positive experience: Tennis was great.enough space

Positive experience: Good pool and gym. Lockers in change room need fixing but never will be. A shade over one end of the pool would be nice. Closed on public holidays - Google always gets this wrong. Check the pool’s website to be sure.

Fantastic experience:

Fantastic experience: I am very happy with the swimming lessons provided by Griffith. The staff at the facility are always very helpful and friendly. Adon the swim teacher has been fantastic with the lessons he has provided.

Fantastic experience: Excellent swimming teachers and a good range of classes at various times, making it easier to find a suitable day and time to attend. If you have neurodiverse child/ren have a chat with management and they will do what they can to accommodate your child's needs. Good coffee is available, and a range of reasonably priced snacks are availble. The small kiddie pool is fun, and there's always a couple of lanes open for kids to use in the big pool, as well as recreational adult swimmers. It really caters to a wide range of patrons.

Fantastic experience: Good pool. Great kids swimming classes. Coffee is good too. Swim n coffee ☕ Somewhere there is a gym. Friendly staff. Kids are constantly improving at swimming. Heated Pool for those chilly times. Summer time. Christmas movie night? Hey.

Fantastic experience: An absolutely wonderful pool with very friendly and competent staff. Great cafe too. The grandkids love it!

Fantastic experience: Love the service, it's clean and the individual swimming lessons are inclusive

Negative experience: Slippy floor, bad air conditioning, price is name more than reality. Logan metro is way better.

Negative experience: Not again. DIRTY, MOULD all over the place. Underwater, on footpath, on the kids pool. This is a serious issue, and the mould cause a slippery surface around the kids playing area which is a safety hazard. I've seen 2 kids slipped and fell within 15mins. All surface must be jet cleaned at least every other day around the pool. From the amount of dirt and mould buildup, I doubt they have been even cleaning the pool and surrounding once a month. And where the hell is life guard? There is only 1 staff in the cashier and nobody actively patrolling the pool. THE COUNCIL POOL AROUND THE CORNER IS 10 TIMES BETTER.

Fantastic experience: Great place to learn swimming. I have been taking my kid there for almost an year and have seen the transition from being scared of water to enjoy being in pool and swimming. All the teachers and staff are very supportive. Special thanks to Emily, Aidon for being patient and always encouraging kids.

Fantastic experience: I love this place! The staff are friendly and helpful. The pool is always clean and the staff endeavour to keep it at a comfortable temperature to swim laps. My 2.5 year old loves the splash pool- we plan to start swimming lessons here soon.

Fantastic experience: Great spot for some laps - no crowds or swim groups.

Fantastic experience: Great teachers, great service, amazing pool! Oh, and the gym's cool too.

Fantastic experience: My family have been coming to this pool for a few years now and I cannot speak highly enough of the staff and Manager Jo. Always excellent customer service with the safety of their swimmers as the number one priority (as it should be!). Parking is easy and plenty of room in the pool for us casual swimmers, which is why we continue to drive straight past Hibiscus to come to Griffith. Jo is always happy to answer any questions and makes you feel welcome. Thanks again for another great swim!

Positive experience: I didn’t swim here

Fantastic experience: Kids love it here

Negative experience: Food and drinks so overpriced with small amounts of options. Highly recommend not buying food or drinks here and just bring your own. I honestly think that if a family came out here and bought a full meal for each person you would end up paying at least $50!!!

Negative experience: I have never been to a more offensive aquatic centre in my life. The manager did everything in her power to be difficult. No cash payment accepted. Credit card was only option. Yet when I asked for a refund (out of disgust), they could not offer a refund. Another words, they can take your money how they want but can’t give it back to you. The young lady on the counter was fine. The manager was one of the most terrible people I have ever come across. Now I know why this place has gone downhill. Terrible place!

Negative experience: This place has gone so severely down hill over the last couple of years. The amenities are nearly always dirty with hair clogged in drains that seem to have been there for a week or more. The staff have absolutely no concept of pleasant customer service and seem absolutely like they do not want to be there. Not sure what is happening with management here but it is not good.

Fantastic experience: I love this place! The staff are friendly and helpful. The pool is always clean and the staff endeavour to keep it at a comfortable temperature to swim laps. My 2.5 year old loves the splash pool- we plan to start swimming lessons here soon.

Fantastic experience: My favourite place for a swim

Fantastic experience: Kids love here

Fantastic experience: Always neat and tidy

Negative experience: Instructors were good but the management is really bad. We were in the wait list for long for step up and one day we found out that others who joined newly were given a spot. When the manger was confronted, she had no answer and was making reasons. Do not recommend. Griffith
