Reviews
"The center is excellent and the staff there are so professional and friendly. A lot thanks to Ms Taty, a very experienced teacher of Learn to swim program, who always got the most beautiful smile on her face."
"Mum and I both wanted a warm hydro therapy pool for limbs exercise. We both have Arthritis, mum's is quite acute. We enjoyed the 32 degrees warm pool but as the season changed, we found 32 degrees not as warm as the shower water,! We decided to skip it for the winter as we are sensitive and catch cold easily. Warm hydrotherapy and spas do require 33 degrees to 36 degrees max."
"Great facilities here and is good for competition. A little more shade for spectators would be nice. It has a good cafe/restaurant attached."
"First class swimming venue. There are numerous pools for all swimming deciplines. There is an indoor and outdoor pool facility for "learn to swim" a rehabilitation. In both pools are wheelchair ramps into the water. Plenty lifeguards in each area. There is a small coffee bar and retail swimming shop at the entrance. If you are looking for a substantial meal and a drink, there is a food area at the back of the pool areas called Cafe Catalina. Showers, toilets, and lockers are available. There are floodlights across the pools. Yes, and a toddlers splash pool area too. No alcohol on the premises. Don't forget sunblock and a hat. Please check website for membership and of special events to avoid disappointment."
"What a beautiful complex… best place to be on a hot coast day! Only downside parking makes the day more expensive than it needs to be!"
