Golf cart was constantly dinging loudly with offers for food or other upsells. The experience: Played 18 holes on the Mesa/Lakes course. Seemed nice, good availability, cart and practice area were included, practice balls were higher than average quality practice greens matched course conditions on most of the holes. Played in a foursome, started on time but the group behind was waiting on the tee when we started. We let them pass us but suddenly we were 15 minutes behind according to the cart. We keep track of our play and we were well within the 12 min per hole average. At the turn we were given a choice to play on the Arroyo versus the Lakes course as they pro said it was less crowded. We enjoyed Arroyo but were baffled as to the reason Mesa/Lakes was overbooked with a pushy marshal instead of spreading out play on all three courses. The course has all the ingredients of a great resort course but is being managed like a racetrack.

Played yesterday, course and greens were in good shape. My pet peeve was arriving one hour early…read moreto warm up, I was told that their policy is you cannot get a cart or hit on the range until 30 minutes before tee time. And the kicker was, when I went to the range there were only about 6 balls on the entire range to hit. I am not talking about my stall, the entire range. Had to go to the shed to get my own balls. I just get the sense that this place is falling apart, customer service feels like they are just putting up with you but really don't want your business. I won't be coming back anytime soon, and I only live 7 minutes from it. I would rather drive to Albuquerque and play a muni.

Highly recommend!

Not only is it great to support local business but the whole environment is a very humbling one. This gym offers all the classic equipment that you need to do almost any training that your heart desires, it also has a huge room where group classes are held. The feeling and hospitality is like none other. They have personal trainers there. I had the pleasure of working with Ryan, he is very knowledgeable, and also a good listener. He tailors the plans to meet your goals and does not try to push things on you that will not benefit you. If you live in the Belen area and are in search of a new place to call home this is it. They also have showers, and a small selection of supplements.I really like this gym and look forward to meeting all my fitness goals with Elite Muscle.

Their hours still say open til 6 and 5 respectively but they aren't. Maybe its a staffing shortage. The gym equipment is basic but it's all there: a few universal gyms, a nice selection of freeweights, and several aerobic machines: orbital trainers, stairs, treadmills and stationary bikes. The changing rooms are inconsequential, but most people come right from home it's not a big deal. The membership price is in the right ballpark and they do offer senior discounts, if you're 60-ish or older. Best deal of all: it is almost never crowded. I rarely had to wait long to get on any one machine or piece of equipment. It would rank more stars if they'd just get "hours open" situation squared away.

"If I didn't buy the ticket, you'd never go," said my wife, one week before the jump. It was a…read moreFather's Day gift (an expensive one) and suddenly all of that talk over all of those years where I claimed I would totally skydive if I had the chance, well, suddenly it was put up or shut up. And I was more than a little freaked out. "Well then... Um, I can't wait. Thanks, honey." The night before the jump I didn't sleep so well, and I definitely cringed when I read through all of the paperwork that I needed to sign, certifying that upon death or crippling injury, I couldn't sue. But when I climbed into the Cessna with my tandem instructor and we climbed 14,000 feet into the air, I felt an amazing sense of calm. I guess I just knew that the instructor had jumped thousands of times, and he didn't wanna die either, so hey, I was in good hands. The fall was absolutely incredible, and the entire experience was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my entire life. And I lived to tell about it. If I was reading reviews to figure out which company I wanted to risk my life with, I would be happy to read that this company was simply way safer, more accountable and more responsible than the competitors. I was in very good hands, and if I could afford it, I would jump another thousand times.

Absolutely abysmal on every level. Booked weeks in advance and even was confirmed the night before…read moreour jump. I made the hour drive to only be met by an unkept empty building. I waited for two hours and made repeated calls and texts to the company line and the admin who contacted me the night prior, with no answer. In talking with others at the airport, it would appear this is not the first time this has happened. Issues arise sometimes and that is when a company's true values are revealed. In this case, Skydive New Mexico's leadership was inept and cowardly in that they couldn't even be bothered for an apology, explanation, or an attempt to make things right. In short, I'm glad it didn't work out since I wouldn't want to put my life in the hands of people that can't even handle scheduling and communication. I can only imagine how dangerous this operation is if Skydive New Mexico applies the same lack of attention and professionalism to their safety protocols and equipment maintenance. It's also worth noting that in my attempt to find out who to contact to get my deposit back, I discovered that the "company" doesn't even have a valid business license with the state of New Mexico, letting it lapse years ago. The operational lapses, along with previous court cases for personal injury should give anyone pause on possibly utilizing their services. There are other and better options at the same airport.
