Anytime Fitness Ballina: Opinions
Negative experience: Get there at night only to see. Notice on the door saying sorry they’ve closed for the night . Living in a van and needing a bathroom is the only reason I’m paying for this membership and there’s no other anytime till Grafton or tweed Thanks so much
Fantastic experience: Love my Anytime Fitness....quality multi adjustable machines , friendly, helpful staff. They set the bench mark.
Fantastic experience: The best playlist of all the AF gyms I've been to
Negative experience: Dirty, toilet and shower worst
Fantastic experience: Good range of equipment, Pilates & Evolt included in membership, friendly, helpful staff, clean facility.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym, the staff are friendly and welcoming. Equipment is always clean and up to date. Can’t recommend them higher
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff very helpful and very versatile gym equipment highly recommended it for everyone
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to AF gym for a year now and I love everything about it. Facilities are always clean and tidy, all machines work great and have all the equipment needed to get a great training experience. There’s a nice community and the staff are amazing, great management - they are very approachable and super friendly (always there to help!). Really happy with my experience at AF Ballina, thanks for everything team!
Fantastic experience: I stopped by Anytime Fitness this morning while driving through, as I have a back injury and couldn’t work out. I only used the shower, but I was really impressed with how clean and well-maintained everything was. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, and the overall atmosphere was great—everyone seemed happy. Even though I didn’t use the workout facilities, it was a great experience!
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, up from Adelaide for holidays.Love the setup and Elke the manager was fantastic.
Negative experience: Tried to sign up over the phone as I’d seen the $8 for 8 weeks but they had trouble with their phone - not to worry, booked in for 4:45pm to pop down there. Get a confirmation text for 5:45pm… Headed down and we were kept waiting for over 15 minutes after the timeslot we didn’t want and asked to fill in a load of forms… before even having a chat about the gym. Didn’t seem to know we were even coming even though I’d booked the consultation… if you can call it that. Asked about a trial, they said we could do a session but just totally uninviting and non-commital. Signup costs totally hidden from website. Cheap in the long run, but we just wanted to pay for a month or two and get a feel of the place… that wasn’t offered. Sad really, just got totally turned off by the customer service.
Hi there Ciaran,
Thank you for taking the time to provide us feedback. We are very sorry your visit to us, didn't go to plan. We always strive to deliver an amazing experience for everyone who enters the club. We did try touching base with you to talk about this more!
The team will take this feedback on board and talk about what we can do better and moving forward we hope we can regain your trust and see you in club again.
Joe
Assist. Club Manager
Fantastic experience: I think anytime fitness ballina needs to upgrade, but that's just my opinion. I travel alot up and down the coast to many anytime gyms and I find ballina is quite small and quite busy. It's a big town. I often find I am waiting for machines or can't find the room to stretch as there are classes taking up the entire purple mat area. I like the people and everything else seems awesome, like I said these are just my opinions. Also the water bubbler has extremely low pressure and can make you feel guilty filling up your empty bottle with a line of people forming behind you much love
Hey there, thank you for your feedback and kind words!
We hope you enjoyed your visit and feel free to come say hi to the team when you're next in!
Take care

Positive experience: Every time I am in town, I do a one day pass at this gym. The staff are always friendly and they respond to messages quickly. It’s one of the few branded gym in Ballina to my knowledge. Some of the equipment seems a bit beat up and they seem to be missing some pretty standard stuff like a shoulder press, sled, ropes ect Perhaps I just couldn’t see a few machines I was looking for. Additionally they could use a few more benches and racks. Cool to see a boxing bag and some functional equipment. For ballina or just a day pass, I’d say this is your best bet however I haven’t heavily looked into any others.
Hi Mason, thank you for taking the time to leave us some feedback! We are glad you enjoy your visits here. In regard to missing equipment, we do have almost of the equipment you have mentioned above, next time you're in town, let one of the staff know what you're looking for and we will be more than happy to show you!
Take care!
Fantastic experience: Nice experience being there daily, clean gym, has all I need for my workout, the vibe is good & all the staff are very friendly & kind
Hi Sophia, thank you for your kind words!
Fantastic experience: A friendly environment..U can easily reach your body goals
Thank you Abel! We are glad to be apart of your fitness journey!
Positive experience: It was a good workout
Negative experience: Music was way too loud like a night club when everybody had earphones anyway who's interested in someone else's playlist. It should be just some light music in the background. I had to put the volume to MAX on my phone yet I could still hear the music in the background. A few mins after a trainer walked in for a class and there was so much yelling and screaming that was so annoying. There shouldnt be a class right in the middle of the gym while everyone trying to concentrate and focus on their workout. Not a single carabiner was in a good working condition. It was shocking as this is a major safety issue. Definitely wouldn't recommend this branch. Luckily I was only on a holiday and thats not my regular gym
Hi there,
Firstly, thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. The team take all feedback seriously as it helps us continue to grow and keep the gym amazing for our members. I would love to discuss your points made.
I'm sorry to hear the music was too loud. This is something we will look in too.
In regards to our Group Fitness, this is a service we offer to our members for FREE! Our trainers pride themselves on a high energy class to help our members have a great workout and get the most out of them. We love these classes as anyone can join in and get an awesome workout in.
In regard to our carabiners, they have all been replaced!
We hope the next time you come to the club, you will enjoy your visit and we hope your experience is much better.
Feel free to give us a call or come say hi to one of the staff if you have any questions or feedback you wish to provide. We are more than happy to listen and help.
Take care!
Fantastic experience: Visiting Ballina temporarily for work, I was impressed with how friendly the staff were. The gentleman who helped me out with a supplement went above and beyond and I really appreciate it. The gym itself is clean and has some great equipment too.
Hi Sam, thank you for your kind words! We are glad to hear you had a great time here.
We look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: The best anytime in Australia! Always super friendly and helpful staff and excellent equipment. Love this gym
Fantastic experience: Always greeted with a warm welcome and a smile and the departure is exactly the same, Mish and Joe have helped transform a fat guy into a guy that has his life back on track. It’s not always the weight you push or pull that transforms you it’s a smile and a caring nature that goes further than a 100kg 10 rep bench press set. You may forget about the exercise but you will never forget about the smile. Well I won’t Thanks RJ
Positive experience: Good gym friendly staff , plenty of equipment. The only reason i gave a 4 is I feel the common Area could have a slam wall instead if a false wooden wall. And the TRX ropes could be more accessible. If this area was reorganised it woukd be a 5
Negative experience: Don't trust the old chick working here, she'll lie and tell you something is fine then report you.
Hi Matt, as the owner of the business we can confidently say you are in the wrong here. All that happened is you were politely asked not to have your dog in the club off the lead. It is because you decide to not do the right thing that we then checked with your home Club what they allowed you to do. As it turns out, you had your membership cancelled there for this same reason. So our team are certainly not doing anything wrong here. If only you had done the right thing from the start, we would have been happy to work with you. Leaving a negative review publicly when you've done the wrong thing is not exactly a classy move.
Negative experience: Broken bits in always averagely cleaned bathrooms. Left a review and months later, when putting my membership on hold for an overseas trip was semi accosted for leaving a review. When I took the time to leave the review (because it's nice to hear from customers that It could be a little cleaner) I will still workout there because anytime is a very convenient gym
Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback again. I’m genuinely sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction. Your feedback matters a great deal to us, and I apologise if we fell short of your expectations. Please know that we take your concerns seriously, and we’re eager to make things right. It definitely was not my intention to make you feel this way and we wish you all the best for your upcoming trip. We look forward to seeing you in club again soon.
Positive experience: There's a few machines I wish they had but great friendly staff and lots of space for everyone
Fantastic experience: Always made to feel welcome by staff and other members. The classes are always a challenge and different but fun.
Fantastic experience: A super lovely, caring and competent team lead Anytime Fitness Ballina - the 'Forever Young' Tuesday and Thursday classes are fun, enjoyable and beneficial in every way!

Fantastic experience: Only anytime fitness I've visited where the music wasn't terrible 100% of the time. Instant 5 stars.
Fantastic experience: Great gym, with friendly and helpful Staff. Equipment is well maintained, facilities are kept clean. Absolutely recommend.
Negative experience: Not impressed to walk in and find a dog tied to a chair! Not an assistance dog, just someone's pet. How are people to work out if they have allergies or dog issues? I do not think it is hygienic nor OHS acceptable.
Fantastic experience: This is an unreal club. The team at AF Ballina really care and personally get to know ALL the members and their needs. No need to even think about any other gym. This is the place. Community, care, results, local and integrity.

Negative experience: I enjoy going to Anytime fitness in Ballina, it has all the equipment that I usually use. Although I was disappointed the last few times I went there as the bathrooms were dirty and there was no toilet paper or soap in any of the bathrooms.
Fantastic experience: The equipments at the cardio section are nice, most of them are compatible with apple watch. Plenty of space and quite a good amount of training gear.
Fantastic experience: Ive been a member of Anytime Ballina for 3 years now and I can’t fault the gym. The trainers go above and beyond to ensure the gym is a safe space and everyone feels welcome. The gym is always kept clean and there is a wide variety of equipment for all abilities. What more could you want?

Fantastic experience: Anytime is great, the tidal roads not so great. Park in the Tamar village to avoid damage to your vehicle
Thank you for your 5 star review Alan. We are so pleased too hear you are happy with the gym :)
Positive experience: Decent workout venue. Equipment at the front incl. treadmills, indoor cycling, etc… were all affected by the flood events in Feb 2022, and have all been replaced with new equipment which is pair-ready for Apple and Samsung watches. Equipment overall well maintained. Environment clean and tidy. Staff members very professional and welcoming. Would recommend dropping in to have a chat if interested.
Fantastic experience: Great place for a workout.

Thanks Maxine! We think you are too ❤️
Fantastic experience: Love Anytime Fitness Ballina community as much as I love the new equiqment and location!!
Thanks Lenni - we love having you a part of the AF Family. Keep up the great training
Positive experience: The location was around the corner from where google maps indicated. It was a small sized anytime, however had all the equipment we required for today’s workout. Some of the cardio equipment had been tagged out due to covid.
Positive experience: I did not actually go there but just walked past. As I could see several people in there and Google kept pestering me about it I assumed it worth three stars. Beyond that I have no knowledge 9f it.
Positive experience: A good Anytime Fitness club, marred by a small workout area filled with members sitting on their phones taking up valuable exercise space. What space there is often means you can't reach exercise aids to complete exercises. Good news is that they use Life Fitness cardio machines. The cardio areas are serviced by a single small fan, possibly not a great option given the high heat/humidity in the area. Customers often leave dogs in cars out the front with doors open as well. Some are rather large and aggressive so be careful.
Fantastic experience: Have all the new equipment
Fantastic experience: Very nice gym, new equipment and set out well
Fantastic experience: Good collection of equipment, new location in Tamar street is far better then the old one

Positive experience: A good rehab place after spending time in hospital
Thanks John. Glad we can help you recover. Looking forward to having you back at your absolute best. AF Team
Negative experience: Closed at this location
Hi Brett, Sorry for the inconvenience. We are relocating to Tamar St to provide a bigger better AF experience and will be reopened hopefully late Feb 2019. Again we apologise for not having this reflected on google. Please reach out to [email protected] for any queries you may have.Regards,Jeannie
Negative experience: Mo longer exists
Hey Luke, we are currently in the process of relocating and will be reopened around April/May. Sorry for any inconvenience caused to you at this time. Regards
Negative experience: THERE IS NO GYM HERE! I CAME ALL THE WAY FROM BYRON TO TRAIN AND THERE ISN'T ANYTHING TO BE FOUND, THE WORST PART IS NO ONE PICKS UP THE PHONE!
Hi Imu. So sorry we are relocating at the moment. We won’t be reopened until mid May. There is an AF in Lismore will be your closest at the moment. Apologies again
Fantastic experience: Anytime Ballina staff is the biggest value you can find in this club. Because I’m traveling along the country I’ve the opportunity to visit a lot of different clubs of this gym chain and not doubt, Ballina has one of the most reliable and friendly staff across Australia. I’m sure the new location will offer even better services. Good luck in your next step and thank you very much for your excellent customer service
Thanks Fabian, hope to see you when we reopen in April. Cheers
Positive experience: This gym had absolutely everything you need to work your goals. They give out a weekly free trial so can have a go. Once you join, they create a program for you, which can be changed on request. The staff are very patient and if you're doing something not quiet the right way, they inform you. Got injuries? No worries they've got you covered. Get amongst it.
