Mandel JCC Palm Beach Gardens 5221 Hood Road, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33418

"Honestly I’m very sorry to give one star, but a community center this will never be if the community is not free to come and go. Why would the playground be closed at 12:30 on a Sunday? Why can I not enter unless I have a specific event or activity booked? Why must it always be so unwelcoming when I come? Is the reason you choose not to offer memberships simply because you do not want members?"

"My neurodiverse son has been going to the JCC for summer camp, School’s Out days, and more since he was 3. Their commitment to providing a safe, fun, supportive environment for all children has made a big difference for our family. May God bless them always."

"My son goes to the preschool at the JCC and it has been the best decision we have ever made. I am so grateful to the time, care and love the teachers and administrators pour into their students and their facility. It's truly magical. My only wish was that we had found it sooner. Highly recommend."

"I wish I could give more stars but honestly not a good experience with swimming lessons. The person in charge of swimming is extremely disorganized. Never answers an email. Swimming instructors are mediocre but I can only blame the person in charge who lacks competence. Plus, they have a strict prepayment policy. If you decide to stop then you will not get a refund but a credit. Ridiculous."

"We joined the swim team- which was great. Then we moved in June. Before moving we called and canceled our membership to the team. July we got billed 100.00 for the team. Called and email multiple times. Told sorry we’ll fix it. July came and went - no reimbursement. Aug came around and guess what- another 100.00 bill from them. Have spoken to Sophia Mello (spelling ?) via email and they keep billing us. Reported them for fraud already but beware - they don’t stop billing even you move. They say they took care of it and then they bill you. It’s ridiculous!!"
