    They have lots of competitions there but they still have "open swim" opportunities and classes.

    Back to try again... Nope. This pool is way too small. Every lame is doubled up already. With…read morelimited hours and minimal lanes this place is basically a wasted corner in shore acres.

    This is a community swimming pool that is part of the city's Parks and Recreation department. It is…read moreadjacent to the Shore Acres Civic Center, which hosts many city programs. The pool is also adjacent to a covered playground with astro-turf. The pool has two low diving boards and a large twisty sliding tube complex. There is also a very large baby pool. The swimming pool is a 25 yard pool, but during public swim hours there is no lane swimming as the pool is converted to a general swim area, sliding tube landing area, and diving well. The pool has men's and women's locker room areas with showers. This swimming pool is an older pool, and does not have a zero-depth entry option for disabled people. This year they just installed a wench-contraption (sorry, don't know what it is called) to help accommodate disabled persons. Public swimming hours are very limited, only being from 1-4 p.m. daily. The other hours are devoted to swimming lessons, masters swimming, and youth swim team. The pool is generally staffed by teenagers with summer jobs, and they are not always the most polite or friendly people, but I guess that is to be expected of teenagers. I enjoy having this pool in my neighborhood, and my kids take advantage of the swim team, but given the option we usually drive to Fossil Park pool because my kids love the high-dive there, or we drive to North Shore Pool so that I can swim laps while they play in the rest of the pool or in the kiddy splash pool area.

    LA Fitness is a high quality gym overall. This location wasn't very crowded for a Friday evening,…read morewhich made the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The pool, hot tub, and sauna were all at perfect temperatures, and there was plenty of space in each one. There's also a large cycling room and mirror room for dancing. I also appreciated the little touches too, like having shampoo, conditioner, and body wash available in all the showers, and the water in the shower was nice and hot also. It's also great that they offer a "Kids Klub" even though it appears to only be open one day a week based on the posted sign. The fresh fruit smoothies are also a great option particularly for morning workouts and the lockers are spacious and give you the option of bringing your own lock. There were a couple of things that felt a bit off. Fox News was playing in the bathroom, which came across as unprofessional, and one of the benches in the sauna felt unsafe since the wood gave way. I also couldn't locate the weight machines, although I didn't check everywhere so they may have been on another floor. Overall, it was a great gym experience and I look forward to coming back!

    This gym could use new equipment, a cleaning crew, rules and wipe stations not just hand sanitizer…read moredispensers. If you have high or even basic standards avoid the S Dale Mabry LA Fitness location. Who cares if you have to drive a little out of the way! Cleanliness needs to be drastically improved and being a Signature club, it's beyond unacceptable. It is not an elevated experience in any way. I was visiting from Winter Park so I just picked the closest location to where I was staying. After I checked in, the front desk woman chased me down and said I had a standard membership and needed to come back to the desk to upgrade the a Signature membership or pay a $10 day pass to use this location. I paid the extra fee but the whole experience was very disappointing. Numerous machines are old and rusty and I attempted to use 3 different elliptical machines before I landed one that worked. The whole place lacked the basic standards like access to multiple wipe stations for to clean off your machines, no cleaning staff to be found and the women's shower area had a pool of muddy water that had accumulated. It lacked the basic etiquette of other gyms for instance, people use the sauna to dry their dirty wet towels! I should have taken pics of the shower area too but I hightailed it out of there! The WiFi is spotty and drops in the sauna and that was the final straw. Time to go! When I was leaving I let her know that for being a "Signature" location and to pay extra for access, the place was sub-par and she asked, "is that good or bad?" I said let me put this politely, it's bad. Very bad. Tomorrow I will try the one farther north or south in the Tampa area and hope for the best!

    This is definitely more of a community than a gym…read more I signed up for a membership at the JCC North and we get four free passes a month to go to this JCC. I really wish it was closer, because I looked at the schedule of exercise classes and wow there are a lot. They are at all hours and all different types. It's phenomenal. The day I went there was some sort of coffee happy hour happening with coffee and food. It really looks like they're trying to build a community here, which is great. The woman working the front desk was so friendly. They have locker rooms that have keypads on the locks, which made them really easy to use. The towels are great and they have blow dryers, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, the standard stuff. At 5:30 p.m. on a Monday it wasn't crowded at all. The gym is on the smaller side, it wraps around the indoor track/basketball court, but for the amount of people there it doesn't seem small at all. I walked on a treadmill and used the free weights. I passed by the cafe, which had a small but mighty looking menu. I would definitely stop by and grab a bite here. I've also attended a gala and a conference here before and I found them both well done. There's tons of parking, with a guard (only one entrance off of Howard).

    Do not join this community center. If you want to effectively use their gym facilities. Every day…read moremembers of this community center sit on the workout machines and conduct private conversations with other members or waste time on their mobile devices not working out on the machines while sitting on the machines or benches, preventing other members from being able to use the machines. Additionally, if you want to hear lots of private conversations via mobile phone, you will have the opportunity to listen to rude members of this community center talk on their phones in the gym. Even though there are signs everywhere, asking members not to conduct private phone conversations on their mobile device. It is very frustrating that I pay for a membership when I cannot use the facilities due to rude people sitting on workout machines or benches while they surf the Internet on their phones or have phone conversations while not using the machines they are sitting on, preventing other members from being able to use the weightlifting machines. Additionally, the staff of the community center does nothing to prevent this from happening.
