We use the Y for daycare. Its clean, the (EXCELLENT) staff takes great care of our 1 year old, and the manager of daycare (Patty) is EXCELLENT. Basically my kid is everything to me, and I trust them with his saftey.

Incredible preschool with tenured teachers and staff. Reggio Emilia, child-led curriculum that allows the kids time and space to explore and follow organic learning opportunities through. Unparalleled communication and attentiveness. Highest recommendation!

Suspect the pool had typhus and malaria in it. Cant prove. Cancelled over one month ago and still drafting the amount out of my account. The showers are also walled off, and I was warned of them selling peoples information for fundraising. Not recommended. Before covid it was a very good club.

Still the BEST AQUA THERAPY IN PALM BEACH COUNTY AND AT THE Y IN BOYNTON BEACH. Frieda and Sandy are superb therapists. I have been working with Frieda for 10 years. Without her help I would not be walking today. There simply is nobody who can compare!

I would recommend this place for other families. And I do often. It has a few things I wish they would address, but as a whole, the family experience its great! We use their work out facilities, my kid is in their sports programs, and we have even been to camp a few times.

YMCA Boca doesnt believe in protecting members from cell phones exploding in the sauna. People ask management for a sign no cells but management doesnt seem to find the need for it....Wondering if a class action would convey to management they are liable and its their duty protect the membership? They believe a general sign saying no plastics or glass in the sauna can do the job. Well its not working and its not clear to people at all....The facility is beautiful the cardio machines all new and modern, excellent weight room, and certified trainers, its safe. . If you like to take lessons do it at your own risk most teachers are not certified and it shows....

The YMCA has been a god-send for us. The staff in the child development center are amazing! My kids get so excited when I tell them it’s time to go to the gym. The facility is always well kept and very clean. The front desk is beyond friendly. And we have had great experiences with the sports programs as well. I recommend this YMCA to every mom that’s within driving distance of it!!

Not because I’m a member, but it is a good place for my entire family to be, to spend sometime working out, dancing, swimming and a lot more. The after care program is awesome and my kid loves it. I’m thankful for everything.

This has been my first experience at the YMCA. I brought my daughter for swim lessons and it has been wonderful! Alyssa is so good with her, my daughter absolutely loves her and can already swim underwater after a short time. Nicole, was so nice and helpful getting us signed up and accommodating us. We did a group lesson and are currently in a private lesson. It’s the place to go for swim lessons. great instructors, staff and prices.

19 years ago my son had his first swimming lessons at the Y when he was 6 months old. We had such a great experience that we decided to join the Y as a family and became fitness members. I have been trained by many knowledgeable and professional Trainers. My son enjoyed playing in several of the sports programs when he was younger... baseball, soccer and basketball where we met so many nice families over the years. When my son was a new teenager he volunteered for 2 summers in the LIT ( Leader in Training) program. He then became employed by the Y and was a Y Bike Instructor. Currently, he has the good fortune of being a Camp Counselor and will work alongside a very caring, talented, dedicated and hard-working staff. We are so blessed to be a part of this Community!

I’ve been taking swim lessons with Jeff and it’s been great. Jeff had me comfortable in the water very quickly. I felt very skeptical that I can learn... I’m happy to say my skepticism turned around within the very first lesson. I like the locker room as it has both steam and sauna which is part of the reason I joined. There is plenty of exercise equipment and tons of classes to join in. Also, I like the quiet area where you can sit and read, eat or get some work done on the computer. I feel excited to go to the gym and it’s been awhile since I felt that way. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I’m very glad I joined. So far it’s been really a great decision for me.

Love the encouragement of the staff, trainers and members; the classes and schedule; the cleanliness of the facilities; and the personal training offered. There is camaraderie at the Y - everyone is focused on the same goal - to get better. Love the Y!!!

The entire YMCA team are incredibly friendly and approachable. The new Masters Aquatics program run by Zoe Da Silva is our favorite workout by far. One hour of intense swim training with drills. Awesome!

Was a member for awhile, but didn’t renew bc they had a kids Halloween party last year and I forgot the invitation so they wouldn’t allow us in, even though we were members. It was ridiculous. Not paying for that type of nonsense.

Always very clean. Swimming lessons are great and their pool is very clean. The swimming director Nicole is super down to earth and the best infant-toddler teacher Alyssa loves her children. I couldn’t be happier.

Nice facility, great programs for entire family and community. After school programs, team building and developmental prerogatives to benefit all whom take part. Summer camp, weekend movies under the stars. Fitness/gym facilities. Arts and crafts. Team sports. Pool and swimming lessons. Safety courses. Multiple membership options. Its fun to be at the Y-M-C-A!!!

I had a great experience stopping in at the Y! I must say, Yeny at the front desk is a stand out team member! She made my quick experience coming to the Y amazing! Her also being able to speak two languages really helped out when it came to communicating and asking questions about the facility! She is fantastic and offers exceptional customer service from the short time I stopped in and I definitely can see myself becoming a member sometime soon!

I joined this gym when my baby was 8 weeks old because the child care center felt a lot more safe and welcoming then the LA fitness that I belonged to. Even though the LA fitness is a 3 minute drive from my house I drive 25 minutes to come to this gym. The staff is wonderful and so friendly. There are plenty of classes and the gym is always nice and clean. My child, whos now one, LOVES going to the child care here, I couldnt imagine a better place to leave my child. Santra and the rest of the staff in child care center are amazing, friendly and warm. I look forward to my daughter growing up here. I would/do recommend this place to any parents.

Me and my family joined the YMCA in the beginning of 2019 and our lifestyle has changed for the better ever since. I am pleased with everything YMCA has to offer to my family including all the different activities my children can engage in. I definitely recommend YMCA if you are looking for a family gym where you and your kids will be happy at. The Nemecek family.

I came here on vacation and was warmly greeted by the staff. The facility is updated and in good condition. Their swimming pools were down for yearly maintenance but it is understandable. The locker rooms were nice and orderly. I will come here again.

My children are in the After-School program and they love YMCA! They spend part of their afternoons doing homework and then they have fun doing other activities such as sports, art, etc. When we (my husband and I) have to pick them up sooner they always complain because they dont want to leave. That, definitely is a good sign!As a member, besides having the benefit of paying a lower price in the After-School and sports program (which is a great deal), I could say that I enjoy a lot the classes they offer (Zumba, Pilates, HIIT, etc).

Review №53

The youth basketball coordinator was also the referee. From the beginning he complained about our team having too many good players. Because he couldnt break it up he took it upon himself to unfairly referee each game. Our team was able to prevail but unfortunately couldnt overcome his and unfair rulings on the final game. Even the parents on the other team came over and mentioned how unfair it fair was.Ultimately the only people who suffered were the little 9 in 10 year olds. Luckily there are so many better programs in the area. I hope he sleeps well at night knowing that he ripped off a buncha kids.

Review №54

We’ve been members of the Y for 2 years and counting, it’s been a great experience so far my daughter loves the preschool she wakes up on weekends and asks if it’s a school day that makes me so comfortable and relaxed to know she loves it and adores all her teachers. Miss Patty does an amazing job ️️️️️️ we appreciate the staff and all they do to create a hospitable ambiance. I also love the activities/events (Halloween , breakfast with Santa etc ) . We take swim classes and we love the instructors and the improvements on how they convey information regarding the performance and reminders , however I didn’t really like the dance

Review №55

Were new members, but so far were all very happy with the facility! The mommy & me enrichment class is great & we look forward to starting our mommy & me swim lessons. The cardio equipment is clean & they offer cleaning wipes all over the workout area. The bathrooms are clean, too. Their snack machines are full of healthy snacks for adults & kids alike.The staff is friendly & helpful. We havent used the child care yet (my son is young & would freak out!), but I peeked in & spoke with a caregiver & she was very sweet & helpful. The child care area looks well kept & they were deep cleaning one area so its obvious that they keep that area very clean.I look forward to watching my little one grow up here & to having healthy family time at this beautiful center!

My daughter has been going to the preschool for about a year now at the YMCA preschool. She absolutely loves it! The teachers and staff are so caring and patient that she doesn’t even want to leave when I pick her up! There’s no better feeling than knowing your children are happy during the day! Thank you YMCA

Not enough showers in locker room. Like the open showers instead. Not be closed in. Wish there was a whirlpool.and more members during the day? Great Indoor Pool. YMCA POOLS have always been the best since I remember since the 1960s. Learned to swim in one.

Had kids on aftercare until March and cancelled everything ... even we are not using the club for the last 2 months they still charging our CC. Went there to ask to get this fixed and they just dont care about!!!! Had to file a dispute with my CC because the financial did not want to help AT ALL!!!!! Hope never step in this place EVER again!!! DO NOT RECOMEND YMCA to anyone. Stay away from them or pay your menbership without giving your CC otherwise will be a headche!!!!!!!

Review №63

Awesome all around facility! Thanks to the indoor heated pool, I have been able to consistently keep my young son in the pool every week. My wife has been able to get in shape thanks to the fitness classes the Y offers. My wife drops our 2 kids at child care and then she is able to get a great work out. Our 4 month old daughter is well taken care of there. She gets plenty of attention and the staff even changes her diaper when necessary. It has been a great experience for all of us. The towel service for the pool and gym is a great feature that we love. We were also able to partake in the Halloween party, which was a lot of fun for the kids. Love it!

We have been members of the YMCA in Jacksonville and Fernandina Beach so we were excited to see there is a Y near where we will be staying. The thing is we have called and called and can’t seem to get anyone to answer and for several days! What gives?!? I’m just saying the other two Y’s someone always answers....

I find it funny that YMCA stands for Young Mens Christian Association, however there are so many Jewish people that go here. I used to be one of them. Not that it matters, but the crowd of people here are just strange. Old guys hang out in the locker room naked, makes other feel uncomfortable to see so many hairy wrinkles... The gym is always packed so no chance of trying to shoot hoops... What disappoints me the most is the fact that they DO NOT REQUIRE EVERYBODY TO USE A TOWEL AND WIPE DOWN THE EQUIPMENT AFTER USING. I love sitting down on a bench only to see a puddle of sweat from some old stinky person... yummm
