    Best pool out of all public pools in Boise. My kids and husband love the Hydrotube. Tons of room to…read morelay out and tons of lounge chairs. The best place to be to beat the heat. If you have little ones the kiddie pool is small. I suggest Ivywild they have a bigger kid pool there.

    The Natatorium is one of two public pools in Boise that have a wading pool for toddlers. Parents…read morecan bring their little ones Monday through Friday between 10 am and noon. Boise doesn't really warm up until the afternoon but the time enables you to beat the heat and avoid the time when the risk of sunburn is greatest. Plus the wading pool is kept at a comfortable temperature. Admission varies but I paid $6.50 for myself and two children. The wading pool has a mushroom shaped water fountain and a couple of seal statues that "spit" water. It's two feet in the deep end. One of my sons is a total water baby and the other is a land lover, but they both had a blast. It wasn't particularly busy, and I was pleased to see how attentive parents were and how well behaved their children were. Hopefully that's always the case. I've heard that the wading pool at Ivy Wild is even better, and I look forward to taking my boys there soon.

    Young instructors and lifeguards were not paying attention to my 3 year old while attending lessons…read morethis past summer. While in the kiddie pool, my daughter went into the deep end and she walked out too far and could not reach the bottom. She went under for a few seconds while I watched from afar. This all happened while a lifeguard was standing by and her 2 instructors were in the water next to her talking to each other. I had to yell at them to get their attention and then they slowly came over like it wasn't a big deal. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Totally unacceptable! Do your job!

    This is a decent public pool. Plenty of life guards. They change stations about every ten minutes…read moreso as to not become bored with their watch. Very smart! The baby pool (generally for ages 5 and under) is warm and shallow; but the really thoughtful feature is the large umbrellas shading the baby pool. Many babies skin just don't tolerate sunscreen; and these guys get that! They rent out noodle floats for .50 cents because other than wearable floats, floatation toys are not allowed, although you can bring your own water noodle. They also sell candy and quick energy snacks. There is an ice cream shack just outside of the entrance, but you must consume it outside of the pool premises. There is no food (other than the little candy they sell) allowed inside the pool area. I wish they would enforce this a bit more strictly. There are too many times I've stepped on chips, or sandwich crusts from ghetto slobs and their children who can't seem to go a couple hours without food. My real reason for the missing star is they are only open a couple hours at a time. Yes, the admission is very affordable, but the late afternoon hours make it difficult for those of us who like to swim early on the day or make a day thing of lounging by the pool.

I love that the whole pool…read moreis rented out by one group so we could move around freely in the space without concern. The area is kept clean and bathrooms were easily accessible. We had a baby with us and she also enjoyed relaxing in her little floaty while the rest of us lounged. It makes for a very relaxing afternoon. Highly recommend for the privacy factor. It was nice to not be surrounded by other strangers relaxing!

    My hubby and I drove to experience the hot springs since we read such great reviews…read more We reserved online via their website. It was a breeze to see their days and times available. We also signed our waivers online and paid using the Apple Wallet which felt pretty safe. We were greeted by a young lady sitting at the office window. She acknowledged our reservation. We were a bit early and she told us to wait a bit while she made sure things were sanitized and she would give us a tour of the hot tub area shortly. The area was so clean, private and just overall welcoming. If you are in the Boise area you and are looking for something relaxing to do, we recommend this place even though it's approximately an hour away from downtown Boise, Idaho. We paid $22 for 1 hour in the spacious natural hot springs private area. They have a large speaker that you can connect to via Bluetooth. The bathrooms are clean and they provide body wash for the showers.

    I wanted to an update after another 6 months of membership. I've been a member here off and on for…read moreyears. A few general comments: - The smaller size and location of the gym are positives in my view. If you need to drive and park, though, it's rough. They have parking through the hotel, but it's time limited and the garage gets full and unusable if there are lots of hotel guests or events. - The locker rooms are tiny, barely kept up (broken hooks, and doors, towels strewn about), showers are sort of just a mess (it's one big open space mostly). Also, on the mens restroom, the urinal continues to almost flood daily as it's been kind of clogged forever. You can use it, but don't flush it.. - Cardio machines are ok -- getting on the older side but work well usually Some frustrations continue to include: - They lease out the pool to external swim lessons, so there are large swaths of the day where the pool is basically unusable and kids are running around, screaming, parents are everywhere -- it's a mes - It's also the hotel pool and gym, so between that, swim lessons and normal members, it's a dirty pool if we are being honest. I used to swim here, but I've run into so many gross hairs and "things" underwater that I just can't do it anymore. - It feels like ownership has gotten a little excited post pandemic and membership growth has REALLY taken off the last few months. It's really noticeable and at peak times (4pm-7pm) it's almost impossible to get a weight workout in without massive frustrations. There's simply no space. There's one single real squat rack (the other is a smith machine type thing), a couple benches, one normal bench press ... you'll end up nearly bumping into people just trying to pick up dumbbells. - There also seem to be some third party kettle bell trainers running private training in the gym, which further takes up space and seems to always ALSO be at peak times. - During peak times -- FORGET about trying to even get changed in the locker room. It becomes like trying to change in an aircraft lavatory. - I don't know if they plan to cap memberships, but I worry they won't (like all gyms, they just love the money coming in) ... and it's now teetering on not being a usable gym option just because it's so uniquely small in terms of Sq/Ft. It just doesn't handle the extra people well. - For now I continue to go and mostly enjoy it but only because I have schedule flexibility. If I were forced to only go at after work times, it'd be a tough sell honestly. 4/5 for now -- but it's getting too crowded really quickly

    Me and my three girlfriends were staying at the hotel for the weekend coming from out of state, and…read morewe chose the hotel partly because of the attached spa. It was difficult to schedule four services at the same time, but they were able to accommodate a facial and massage at the same time, and then two more massages right after. We thought our services were fine; my girlfriend had a prenatal massage and said her therapist talked the whole time which she thought was distracting, but I had the same therapist right after and we didn't chat at all. I know therapists usually go off the energy of the client that they're working with, so I think she was probably being polite and the therapist might have considered it being open for more conversation. Anyway, like I said, we did enjoy our services. We were hoping for a group discount, but instead they treated us each to a glass of wine, which we appreciated. We didn't use any of the gym or pool facilities, nor the locker room. The gym equipment seemed fine. There were quite a few people in the gym. We didn't see anyone using the pool, but there were people using the hot tub, sauna, and steam room. I would say that clientele leans more male, and the pool/hot tub/sauna/steam room are co-ed, so take that into consideration if you visit.

    We toured and joined the facilities before the "beach club" was open. We bought into that amenity…read moresite unseen, but assumed due to visits to other Life Times, that the pool experience would be enjoyable for the kids. Something is off when the yuppies on work breaks are floating in massive fun pool toys, and the kids don't seem to be permitted to jump or splash or throw a ball? We need to reconsider the approach to the family pool culture for ages 7-20 or it's going to be no fun for anyone. Locker rooms and classes and equipment are great, but that's not why we would shell out for a family membership.

    The kids pool is NOT fun for the kids. My family was at the pool for the first for an hour and it…read morewas non stop lifeguards yelling at the kids. "Don't touch the rope!" "You can't get into the pool there." "You need to be closer to your mom" (mom is 10 ft away). "You can't play games in the pool." "Keep your head above water." "No holding your breath under water." The small group of kids were honestly scared to do anything. We are members at a country club in the area, and they have a pool with lifeguard on duty, but the kids have a great time and don't have all of these ridiculous rules. I can't imagine how it's going to be when the pool has way more children in it this summer. The yelling is going to be out of control! My daughter doesn't want to go back. Hoping this public message will change things for the better.
