Reviews of Pioneer Recreation and Sport Centre
P. P.At the entrance were asked right away to sign in and for our vaccine pass. This makes me feel reassured that it's safe in the facility.
The staff are have bright and friendly attitude.
The place is clean which makes the overall experience satisfying 😌
Z. M.Great. Real friendly dude outside and counter staff good. Pool floor is peeling but I'm not bothered. Great place to do my lanes and the spa is awesome
E. R.Great place to watch the kids full view all around and very clean and tidy. Could do with a better toddler area. As gets deep fast.
N. R.A great pool to take the kids to. I have taken my nephew there from when he was a baby to now when he is 6 years old.. we both still love it. Several family change rooms which all include showers.
C. P.Great place to take our grandchildren to learn to be more confident in the water. Had a great time and loved the wave pool.
C. B.It's a great place for kids and has a wave pool, lazy river and giant bucket dunker. It's not the biggest rec centre but it's lovely:)
E. B.Receptionist SAski has explained about membership to me in detailed. It was very comfortable to talk with her.
N. S.Excellent place for swimming, sauna bath, hot pool, spa, gym and many more classes. I love this sports center. It's onmy 6$for adult swimming pass including pools, spa, hot pool and sauna. They have cleaned toilets and bathrooms. A ton of car parking and around center street parking available.
It's busy on Saturday morning and sunday morning.
Staff is friendly , helpful and kind.
👍😊
S. D.Great place. My daughter does beach volleyball and the sand court is perfect here for training.
J.Show your vaccine pass and it's business as usual in the gym. You still need to pre-book for the fitness classes and it can be a little hard to get in to the popular ones.
M.Went to check out the gym. Staff were very helpful and the equipment is good. I will be joining the gym. It will be even better when the pool is open.
I have since joined and am very satisfied with the service and professionalism of staff.
G.Very convenience opening hours, gym is well equipped and spacious.
M. R.Great pool, nice lap pool, wave pool, lazy river, sauna, steam room, spa, gym... Mate she's got it all
S. K. O.Water temperature was nice and it was not very busy when I got there at 7:30am. Just disappointed that there are no private changing rooms.
P.Good parking, friendly staff and a great recreational place to keep fit. Loads of different sports and workouts available. Pool has an activity pool with waves at sweet times, lap pool, spas and a sauna that's not going. Toilets and changing rooms usually clean, as of the whole facility really.
J. S.Very enjoyable Pet Expo.
Learnt Turtles shed their shell every 12 months and many other Animal facts.
s. c.Great pool, gym sauna and spa... Large parking area with friendly staff and awesome facilities... Highly recommended! 😊
H. C.Great facility. Looking forward to spending more time here
A. B.Great wee pool. Good for young kids, my boys are 6 and 7 and this was a safe depth for them. Nice spa and sauna available for the grown ups too. Fantastic way to tire out the kiddies on a Sunday arvo
K.Always fun. Great little fun pool for the family
A.Great facilities and group fitness especially yoga and stretch and release.
S. T.Great gym, and the pools are always mostly fantastic. Although chlorine level is too high and turn the jets on in the spa! Can see way too much with the water just still as it is 😂
E. H.Lovely place for the whole family. Different sport activities offered and an outdoor playground!
S. P.The pools and sensory room are both great for little ones
J. P.Awesome pools no wait time in level two today for taking the kids ☺️
A. G.Super helpful staff, no question too silly. Took two toddlers to Tumbletimes, they absolutely loved it. All equipment in excellent condition, plenty of room for all the participants.
T.Great park for letting the dog stretch his legs. A credit to the city council and community groups.
G. A.Staff good changing rooms good and pool is ok
b.We are so lucky to have Pioneer pool in our neighborhood. We have been coming here for over 30 years and its never been better.
J. P.Great pool but avoid school holidays & local schools swimming lessons ot built to funnel noise away but it comes back down from ceiling 20 + children are enough at once decibel levels go sky high. Everything echoes here
C.Nice pool but too small for too many people. Hope it can open till 8pm. Sauna's a bit too hot.
M. W.The venue itself is fabulous, however there is insufficient parking for any major activity, which is ironic when CCC would demand more parking as regulations if it was a private entity.
As usual 2 sets of rules
S.Loved it. We had loads of fun
A. E.Have come here for Tumble Times with our toddler a few times, the woman running the sessions is great at it, very energetic. Always plenty of equipment/activities for kids of different ages to choose from.
Have been swimming here a couple times, pools are okay. Need a better toddler/preschool area.
Love the fact there's a park right outside the building. Very convenient.
J.Very happy swimming with my friends😁🤠
D. S.I have always liked this place as a young person I played volleyball and squash here. Older I took my children swimming. And basketball here I have at verious time's used the pools facilities for health and recreation spa ,lap pool, steam ,suna. Even have been beaten by my father at tennis on the courts out side a happy memory of the man who I miss . A great family facility
z.Good gym, friendly staff. The learn to swim staff are lovely. Pool facilities are pretty standard.
L. S.Our favorite pool to visit. Always pretty clean and well maintained. Pool is great for little ones and it's not overly crowded.
C. T. T. H.For those who haven't been here its a lovely place to go to for sports eg indoor football and basketball. They also got a swimming pool to offer for those of you who will like to chill in the spa sauna and steam room. Great for kids as well with a wave pool, lazy river, and water equipment to play with.
H. W.Pool under going renovation at moment. Great playground and volleyball net behind stadium. Senory room is great for kids and adults with disabilities
L. S.Not my usual rec centre but just needed to get my aqua fix while ov vacation. Loved it. Clean, friendly and not just the staff, very welcoming. Loved both the instructors... great humor.
J.Love going to watch my son playing basketball. Didnt realise it was no spectators, until a lady on the door told me VERY rudely. Staff should be more polite. She almost yelled at me NO SPECTATORS, no sorry, nothing. How rude.
a. d.Tumble Times for toddlers is fantastic. Great variety of equipment, lots of space to explore and safe.
Z. R.Good quality facilities. They do take care and maintain this place well. It can get really busy on a hot summer day though.
M.Great place. Staff really quick at helping and knowledgeable
G. T. f. L.Great pool for kids of all ages, separate from lane pool. Great facilities and rooms which are easy to hire for meetings. Good gym facilities and classes. Make sure if you take a membership that it includes pool. Note at time of review Aqua classes are additional but worth the investment.
A. A.Came to use the sauna and steam room. Family friendly, but very crowded. Both are really small. Good spa pool and shower for washing down after being in the sauna.
A.Great place for the whole family
M. S.Good pool for kids. Warm from inside and not very big.
T. A.Swimming pool great for kids. Cafe for afterwards. Usually plenty of parking. Bike racks too. Park just outside if you want it. Family changing areas make it really easy with little ones. Swimming prices are good value. Pool slopes in gently, has floats etc to play with, a water "spout" to splash about under.
R. W.Nice for a float in the pool, just stay away from the dodgey spa pool and sauna areas full of perves
H. B.Good pools for toddlers+, for babies go to Graham Condon.
C. M.Great place for children. They also have steam and dry sauna and hot pool. ;)
I suggest you use locker for your valuables as someone people too accidentally our stuff few times.
m. m.Love the place my kind if spa, sauna, steam room, lap pool & Wave pool, then there's the gyms, courts...
R. c.Staff here are friendly, great place for my client come 3 times a week

A.(Translated) The pool looks great, although I didn't use it. You can also buy the necessary items to enjoy it, and you do not need to be a member, although it is cheaper. There is also a very nice bar, and outside there is a huge park where you can do all kinds of activities, including beach volleyball.

La piscina se ve muy bien, aunque no hice uso. Además se pueden comprar los artículos necesarios para disfrutarla, y no hace falta ser socio, aunque sale más barato.
