Positive experience: I love the pool area and all the extra pools for babies and children. It has a lovely sauna and a heated pool for remedial soaking. BUT the showers and changerooms need refitting. The bottom of the pool is very tired needs resealing, expensive I know, but cracks are not sightly or inviting. The temperature of the water is very acceptable and some of the staff very friendly. The price is also very good and the opening times OK for such a small town. Very enjoyable. The spa is lovely, but for some reason there was a lot of sand in it today.

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Blue Water for a late booking for my granddaughter to do intensive swimming this coming week. Another pool in Colac cancelled their intensive swimming starting Monday 15th Jan just today saying lack of attendance. We've been coming to them for at least 10 years. Very dissapointing. My grand child had her swimming bag packed. Thanks Blue Water for helping us out .

Daniel M 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym facilities and the pool area is superb too, just be weary about when you go to the latter as it will be very busy later on in the day and often the high volume of children will make a calm swimming session unlikely. Still it's a public pool so what do you expect? The steam room and jacuzzi however are usually quiet even at peak hours.

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of being at Bluewater Leisure Centre and the staff were friendly and helpful. This facility is very functional,the pool area is nice although I'm sure the good people of Colac and surrounding areas deserve an upgrade of the pool area to attract visitors and encourage locals to spend there money there.

Barb Groeneveld 3 years ago

Negative experience: Disappointed at the changing room conditions. Main changing room closed for cleaning which left middle change rooms and end toilets. Both smelt like urinals when I approached staff he wasn't phased said cleaner is coming soon. Gone are the days when you would grab a mop n bucket some disinfectant and give it a clean. I know harsh but in the current moment cleaning is possibly the norm. If not appreciated.

Positive experience: My little boy loves it there. Everyone I've talked to from reception to lifesaving staff have been really lovely.

Rolson HJ Weston 4 years ago

Negative experience: During weekdays, I’d consider this place rather well run, however, they have very little consideration for those unable to use the facility 24/7. Students may only access the facility until 4, as stated by the receptionist, leaving very little time to organise events, work, have a social life and still exercise. Usually this wouldn’t be a problem, but when I signed up for my membership, I was told specifically I could access the gym until close, (which isn’t 4). They also tried accusing my of a dishonest in membership payments on the 24th of July when I only just signed up in August. The woman who helped me resolve the issue was rude and unwilling to listen. I’m considering changing gyms.

Positive experience: Its got a huge hole in the floor and the staff have just left it to fill with water. Ridiculous but i like it

Philip Savin 5 years ago

Positive experience: Not somewhere you would go to have fun. The deep end of the pool is not very deep at all. Most lanes are shut off and are only for lap swimmers and there are no diving boards. You are not allowed to throw balls too fast or too high. This place is only for fitness addicts and hydrotherapy clients. If you want fun, your better off going to the beach.

Emma Cound 6 years ago

Positive experience: Staff are friendly and accommodating. Compared to other leisure centres these facilities are generally well-equipped. Poolside changing is good at the pool however sometimes the pool itself needs a clean. In summer I have found plasters and all sorts when doing laps. Isn't generally dirty though and this varies with the crowd. The only dislike I have is that people spray deodorant in the poolsode changing rooms and it sinks to the water surface, making it horrible to breathe when doing laps. They are taking measures to sort this out. Gym is great for the most part but leg extension and curl etc., need upgrading as they're getting a bit old and are not very adjustable. Not bad for a small-ish township facility though, highly recommended. **Update: gym is now 24 hour!
