★★★★★Yogi Brian ButurlaCleanest pool around. Weekend front desk staff nicer than your favorite grandparents. The New Canaan YMCA cares about YOU and your health!
★MoThe man at the front desk named bob greets everyone properly besides me, I always smile when I enter the building but he consistently gives me dirty looks and is very dismissive when asked questions. It makes the experience extremely uncomfortable.
★★★★★Allen PattersonGeorge Williams who founded the YMCA(Young Mens Christian Association) and came to Christ in the 19th Century in England West Country wrote this: I cannot describe the joy and peace which poured into my soul when I first saw that The Lord Jesus died for my sins and that they were all forgiven! An absolutely beautiful facility! Unfortunately no photos allowed. My daughter and I are swimmers. She’s a gold medal winner Florida special Olympics; 1:25 100 freestyle. Both of us have swam in many facilities across the country. This facility has 2 lap pools. The one we swam today is 8 lane 25 meters 81 degrees and crystal clear. This is the best swimming facility in the country by far. And what makes it by far is the staff. The staff is Professional warm and welcoming. 2 thumbs up!
★C CullenAfter many years... had to make a change ! The basic problem is there is no management of the employees... a few weeks ago I walked into ...both the front desk workers watching TV on their phone . I checked in ....neither of them lifted their eyes off their screens Upstairs is worse ... employees on the cell phone watching TV Paper towels are constantly empty , clean wipes are always empty & cleaner bottles are constantly empty.., God forbid you say something ... you receive the stink eye and no action! At one time they provided towels for the locker room and gym . Both towel services were canceled around the same time as they raised the rates . The locker room at one time was clean. Over time you notice the same dirt stains Never go away... As I understand it , They cut the full time cleaning guys hours ? The worst offense was when I quit via email They said my credit card would not be charged... They confirmed this via e-mail.... Well they continued to try charge my card. This place is a mismanaged horror Membership is over $100 a month it's not worth it ! I waited a few weeks to write this review My new gym is $30 a month less Provides towels and the locker room is spotless. The funny part is I notice at least a dozen ex YMCA members They all have the same story to tell Do Not Join This Place .... Over time you will regret it
★★★★★Vicky Tan(Full disclosure: I'm one of the group fitness instructors here). I love the New Canaan YMCA -- it's a great place to work and I've never felt so welcomed before. The director of fitness is empathetic, kind, and she genuinely cares about having a strong group exercise offering. Everyone has been incredibly nice and you can tell this place truly cares about its members. The group fitness room is in EXCELLENT condition, I love the space because it's clean and gorgeous with high ceilings. I'm so excited for my son to be part of the New Canaan YMCA community. Thanks for everything!!
