Fantastic place, gorgeous pool, great gym, nice coffee, a-m-a-zing people, so friendly - staff and other users. Tons of classes, sports events, social events (I could go on and on) etc. Very highly recommended. The entrance picture says it all - welcome and boy do you feel welcome here. I am no model but still feel very welcome and accepted. There aren't many gyms like that. If you're not sure, just visit and see for yourself. Plus gorgeous views, free hot drink after a workout, outside seating on a nice day, sports on big screens etc etc
