I have been a lifetime member for years now and I know what to expect from lifetime... that would be excellence in a gym. The gym has everything you need, pool, fitness classes, plenty of machines and a weight area. The location is clean and is located close to the freeway. The only downfall to lifetime is the amount of members. There are sometimes too many people there to feel comfortable when working out. read more

This gym has just about anything you can ask for from a gym. Great group fitness classes, amazing childcare, a rock wall, squash courts, indoor and outdoor pools, a cafe, a spa, water slides, tennis.... The staff is super friendly. The locker room is fairly clean. There are a few things that need improvement. This gym is expensive, so I expect the best. 1. There should be TVs on the cardio machines. Even the cheap gyms have that. 2. The actual gym could be cleaner. read more

Watch out for the added fees. They promised us there was nothing hidden and gave us LT bucks when signing up. We eventually found out that when we signed our son up for swim lessons that they signed us up for them until we decided to cancel, so it wasn't a month to month thing. We attended a total of maybe 2 swim lessons, yet they still chose to charge us for lessons we did not use and do not PLAN to use. Their business practices are underhanded and backwards (only the DEPARTMENT can choose to do refund or talk about fees, there is nobody for the general billing there). Do not trust them. We signed up when they claimed to be different than other gyms, but that was not the case here read more

Lifetime sells the spa as an incentive to the gym, along with the kids play area. The customer service at the spa was horrendous today. Jilian at lifetime spa has hands down worst customer service I have experienced in a long time. Canceling appt, eye rolling, deep breathing to convey her frustrations. Don't work with ppl if you do not like the public. read more

The Nordstrom of workout gyms. Super clean, friendly, professional, and fun. I love that there are so many women in the free weight area. Also, the cafe is dependable and sometimes we here go just to eat. The spa is also awesome (great facials, hair, and products) and I appreciate that they offer norvell spray tanning! I got my hair done here for years and I could go on and on. Family friendly, great yoga classes. Home away from home! read more

My weekday swim hangout. Big, clean, and kid friendly. The year round heated pool got me here. Understandable, it was trimmed back a few months. It's still great. read more

Lifetime is doing a lot for the kids now which I really appreciate. I almost left the gym after kids activities and child care times started getting cut last year, but the new kids schedule is pretty amazing. I'm glad this gym is so family friendly. I attend the group fitness classes in the afternoon and evening. The instructors are awesome! read more

I'm in love with LTF. When I joined, I was just over 300 lbs and terribly out of shape. But I never felt out of place or uncomfortable. There were plenty of people in all stages of fitness, so I didn't stand out at all. That helped tremendously! Most of the classes are mulit-level, so you can join in and work on your fitness level without feeling intimidated. The Hydro Training class is amazing! Classes are scheduled 7 days a week, with hours to fit all schedules. Instructors are helpful and motivating, never judgemental. My son is 12, so he's old enough to do his own thing. I never worry about his safety in this huge facility. I don't have a lot of experience with the childcare, but I've heard nothing but positives. I only WISH this place had been around when my son was younger! The facility is always clean and even at peek times there are plenty of machines available. They limit enrollment to ensure this. It may be a bit on the pricey side as far as most gyms go but the services and amenities are FAR FAR superior to any other gym in my experience. Tons of classes, indoor/outdoor pools with slides, hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms, nice locker rooms, free towel service, tennis, racquetball, squash, rock climbing, basketball, volleyball, spa, cafe, etc etc etc. What more could anyone want? I'd gladly pay twice as much for all that we enjoy at LTF! It keeps me motivated and interested in a variety of workout options, which keeps me coming back regularly. read more

After playing phone tag multiple times only to find out how really Horrible customer service they have. I had to move back home to WA and they told me on the phone they would cancel my membership for me and nothing else needed. I got billed 2 times and kept calling and no one would return my calls. I called and wanted to speak to the head lady and nobody would let me speak to her. I called 3 times!!!! I shouldn't of had to call at all! I haven't been to their gym in 4 months! I didn't even ask about a 2 month refund, but no one called me and I'm still be being charged! They are money hungry and don't care what it takes read more

Signed up with Lifetime Fitness about three years ago. Initially I was very impressed, but as time went on, I realized its all about the money. The facilities are good, and the racquetball courts were nice. But the staff are rude and could care less about the clients. Of course, we go there to work out, not to socialize, but in these times, you would think that client service would actually mean something. read more

Good gym, clean, lots of options. It can get busy at times and equipment will be limited. Got different information from staff when trying to change my plan. Was member for close to 3 years. read more

I've been a member of Bally's, LA Fitness, 24 hour Fitness, The Q, and Mountainside Fitness and Lifetime is head and shoulders above those gyms in every way. The service, equipment, and amenities are far superior. read more

Bart is the man!!! We were in town for 3 weeks only and needed a place to workout. I spoke with Bart on the phone and he said just come in and he gave us free passes for 3 weeks!!! He was super nice and treated us as if we were paying customers. This gym is amazing. The biggest and nicest one I have ever been too. It is highly recommended and ask to speak with Bart. read more

I recently moved to AZ and was browsing through gyms in the local area. I went to a few gyms that were underwhelming and then found Lifetime. Don showed me around and was very friendly and professional. He still remembers me from signing up and always says hi when I see him (working or not). If you are looking to sign up, I would ask for Don. Don 10/5 Lifetime 5/5 read more

I've been an elite member since 2010 when I lived in IL. This location is by far the nicest of all the Gold Level gyms I've been to. I talked to the general manager and he told me that the Tempe location was the first one in the valley and it was built to be a flagship model hence why it's the nicest and biggest in the valley as well, all for a Gold level price (previously a Bronze level so even cheaper) compared to North Scottsdale which is a Platinum Level gym and smaller. This place keeps on updating their equipment and remodeling to make it look nicer than it already is. This is the only gym I know of that has 5 not just 1 but 5 squat racks. That alone is worth the price for me. read more

Both my wife and I were members of this site but not any more after today. The reason we canceled my wife's account was we moved from Tempe to Chandler and did not visit this site as often as before. However, we kept my account (or relation) with lifetime based on the suggestion of the manager we talked with in last Nov. She told me that by paying $10/mon I am still a member and besides I have full access to the facility once a month. And for that visit I should be allowed to bring my wife and kid. That was what she told me. Since last Nov, we actually only visited this site once in this March. No questiones were asked when we enter and that is what we expected. But not today, the new front desk girl asked me to fill out a form about my wife and kid's information. So I refused and asked to talk to the manager. What surprised me more is the new manager told me that I myself is not allowed to have full access to the facility since I am paying only $10/mon. What the heck! It is not about the fees that I am paying. It is about what you told me in last Nov. Of course, if you told me this earlier, I have no opinions on it. But how do you feel if you were told totally differently by two managers who are supposed to know better than me about the pociliies. OK, if you don't know, just don't say things you don't know. At least, it is my right to choose to cancel the membership to go somewhere else which is better. read more

Wow sign me up! If only I lived in Tempe and could pay just $50 for such a great facility. Here in San Fran the only thing that compares is the Bay Club and it's monthly dues are about $125! If I ever leave here I hope to find a Life Time Fitness close by. I found the facilities to be very clean. Love the indoor pools and the outdoor pools. It is a great place to beat the heat in Tempe for sure. read more

It's a great premium level fitness center/gym. It's more than just a gym because it offers tennis courts, basketball courts, jacuzzi, indoor and outdoor swimming pools. They even have fitness events you can join like their own triathlon. I wish I could afford the monthly $55/mo. What I did not like was that they raised the monthly rate with just an email notice. I had to switch gyms due to that since I felt they should lower their price for loyalty. read more

Minus being way too pricey for a college student this facility is amazing. I have never had to wait for equipment or towels like the other competitors out there. read more

Great place not just to workout but to hangout with the family on the weekend! They just did a renevation to the upstairs level. Upgrade the Spa as well! Staff is very friendly and the personal trainers know their stuff! But you have to come in a check it out yourself :-) read more

First time here but was impressed with the cleanliness of it all. Staff was great and was not hassled at all. The fees are on par. I'm starting to realize everyone wants "free" in AZ and aren't ok with -$1 over that. read more

Love this gym! The facilities is top notch, great amenities and always kept very clean. Duane and germaine really put the 5 stars of Lifetime fitness, they are great and always treat me very well. This gym is my home away from home and have all the necessities I need including a awesome pool, top k notch locker rooms that are spotless, cafe to get my day going. Overall this place is amazing, I will always recomend friends and family to lifetime. read more

Great gym! Super clean, great locker rooms and the pools are phenomenal. I wish it didn't get so busy in the free weight and stretching areas around 3:30/4pm but that's to be expected for any gym with after work crowds. Definitely recommend it to anyone gym shopping. Great classes too! read more

By far my favorite gym in Arizona. Been living here for about 3 years and the minute I walked in everyone was so incredibly welcoming and helpful. I have worked in many gyms before and this staff goes above and beyond. Geo was super motivating and even took the time to get me set up with my amazing personal trainer. if anyone is looking for that compassion, he's the guy to ask for. His customer service is above and beyond amazing. Prices are amazing too for everything that gym has to offer. Highly recommend this gym to anyone who is looking to transform their life, definitely worth it! read more

I only been a member for a couple of week now and already feel a change in my physical body. I had a good talk and workout with one of the personal trainer (John) thats showed new and improved way to stay fit. I'd recommend his work to anyone who's serious about making a Change and becoming a better version on you. read more

Big fan of this gym. I love it! Very clean!

Awesome place to work out. Spa like amenities with serious machines and great classes. Love the group fitness.

I've been a member for a few years now, but lately lifetime had been down grading. The receptionist staff is rude, I guess they don't know how to smile, a few is really nice but some younger people give off the attitude they're better than other people aka guest coming through here. When I took a guest for a one day pass this one blonde girl was just rude, we told her we didn't want an account manager cause is a one day guest pass and after we walked away we heard said "oh I forgot you didn't need an account manager if its a one day guest pass" umm was she trying to give me a hard time, fired her or re train her put her in a line up and id love to point her out. Also there's rumours in the women's locker room many people is losing their stuff. JUST WOW I CANT EVEN FEEL SAFE EVEN THOUGH I KEEP MY OWN LOCKER KEY. If I want to pay for theft and rude service I'd go to LA fitness or any cheaper gym. UPDATE: I SAW THE SAME RECEPTIONIST AND LINE FULL OF GUESTS AND SHE DIDN'T EVEN SMILED ONCE. read more

Just love this gym!! It's soooo huge- fun for the entire family.. All ages and there's even a cafe with all types of delicious meals, snacks and smoothies! There are two huge pools, an entire spa and the exercise equipment is superb!! Always feel so at peace and happy here.. It's so nice and clean and the staff is friendly! read more

One of the best gyms I've been to. It's more like a resort then a gym. Love the machines and not having to wait for any equipment to use. The pool is what got me sold to this gym. Not having a pool here in Arizona when temps hit 110+ really sucked. I hate public pools. They'll filled with screaming kids and pool may not be cleaned so often, So I go here to cool off, and you pretty much have the pool to yourself in the evening hours. You do get a couple snobby people from here and there but for the most part you'll see a mix of different people who are nice. Also, sales could be a little better. I wish I was told about LT bucks. The membership cost around $50 for me, however with everything you get I personally think its worth it. Also, it's a little far for me as I need to drive 11 miles each time, but it makes a rather good, short escape from home. Overall, Would recommend. read more

I love lifetime, and so do my kids! sometimes, i just don't feel like working out but my kids are BEGGING me to go to the gym! The kids center is awesome! and they have pretty good hours that they are open on the weekdays til 9pm....weekends are a little sooner, but compared to la fitness they had the best hours, and its on $5 per kid, instead of $10 per kid. and ohhhhhhh The pool is the best, especially if you have a toddler! its starts off at 0 inches and it gradually gets deeper! and they have indoor and out door. all the other reviews are all certainly true, i just wanted to add something that they didn't mention! but i love this gym! read more

Love this gym! Tons of things to do and I know I haven't even scratched the surface. My son is in the splash class which is super cute and he's learning to be comfortable around water. I'm doing Pilates which has been great. The kids center is very secure and has activities for your child. They aren't just sitting there like baby lumps. I have always been the type to go to the gym, do my thing and leave. I actually hang out here on the weekends. Yes, it's more expensive than other gyms, but you really are getting great service for the price. read more

Everyone in here is so nice! Always getting greeted and get my goodbye's when I'm leaving out the door. The gym is really clean and always up to par, I couldn't have asked for a better gym with a better atmosphere. My favorite part about the gym is their hours and how many machines there are available. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone! read more

These guys are very friendly when recruiting new members... that changes once they have your credit card number. DON'T JOIN!!!! read more

Great work out facility with very friendly staff. Feels well done tennis courts could be improved but over all great experience feels a lot more then the average cooperate gym read more

The accounting processes stink. After numerous mischarges to our credit card (which they have on file for dues and everything you buy), we told them verbally and in writing not to use our credit card any longer. Some of the mistaken charges were in the $2000 range and others in the hundreds of dollars. Each time it took weeks to get our money back. We even wrote to headquarters in Minnesota and got no response and no action. Our Trainer is TOPS and the Nutritionist is fabulous. If it were not for them, we would look for another gym. The customer service person has not responded to my e-mail or phone call and its been over 2 months now. I only want to deal with my Trainer and no one else at Life Time Fitness. read more

I used a free guest pass that I had received in the mail they were more than friendly but not very pushy to get me to sign up for a membership which I greatly appreciated! The facility was very clean the locker rooms are clean and even the showers were nice and clean and not grimy and gross. The hot tub was fantastic there was really no one else in there so was nice to have the room to move around and there is allot of room the hot tubs are huge and there are two of them. I highly recommend giving a look of your looking for a good atmosphere gym. read more

I am so in love! My family and I have been looking for a good gym we could all enjoy for awhile. This place is it! Marco Gamez has been so amazing with helping us determine whether we wanted to pay a little more for a gym. He seriously has made our experience excellent! He never once made us feel pressured into joining, which was a breath of fresh air for once. Every other gym we looked at pressured us to sign up that day otherwise we wouldn't get a good deal. I can't thank him enough for his great hospitality! This gym is amazing. There is always something to do,which is hard to find in a gym with two children. I am not one to love to go to the gym but this gym keeps me wanting more,which I am so grateful for. My 5 year old always has an option to do different classes. From karate to dance to rock climbing to science! This place is seriously outstanding. I have taken two classes so far and have absolutely loved both (yoga and evolution of cycle) which neither I have tried before but both have challenged my body and my mind! I am very grateful to start my healthy journey with this outstanding gym and their amazing staff! read more

This is the best gym in the world machines are always being taken care of and are available for use not to busy and they have so much cardio equipment so it's awesome. Also they have a gym a pool sauna everything you could want in a gym membership! read more

The customer service at Life Time is ridiculous; the staff is very impersonal, unprofessional and rude. They treat you as an inconvenience when you need help and offer little assistance. I do not recommend this gym, especially at $60 a month. La fitness is much better! read more
