Canyon Meadows Aquatic & Fitness Centre

Expérience fantastique: The pool is very beatiful

Expérience négative: I was in the Dive Pool when a woman dressed in a LONG BLACK FULL robe, from head covering to ankle black tights, entered the dive pool with her husband. Not the cleanest swim wear I must say. And her husband was lingering by the pool ladder staring at women's derriere's as they climbed up the ladder to leave the pool. It was grotesque, disgusting. I quess the Woke City of Calgary allows any outfit in the pools. This would NEVER happen in Quebec where they've strict WESTERN swimming attire rules.

Expérience fantastique: The fitness centre here is great - super chill vibes, rarely busy, very non judgemental space. Staff are kind and helpful. Would recommend.

Expérience négative: It has been a long time since the family shower water has been cold. When I ask why it is always cold, the answer I get is that they already informed the necessary people. My question is, what should a dad with a small daughter who needs help with showering and changing do?

Expérience positive: Love that this is saltwater the stuff was great but it definitely is run down and definitely needs some renovations the hot tub was closed I overheard some ladies saying that tiles were cracked and a couple people cut their feet so I heard that they are closing for the summer for renovations but I do have to say that the class that I went to on Monday at 12:00 for deep water workout was fantastic my favorite out of all the ones that I've been to the instructor I wish I could remember her name was fantastic she brought in exercises I've never done before I actually felt likebut I do have to say that the class that I went to on Monday at 12:00 for deep water workout was fantastic my favorite out of all the ones that I've been to the instructor I wish I could remember her name was fantastic she brought in exercises I've never done before I actually felt like I worked out it was busy a little overcrowded for the class but the people in the class were great as well I absolutely can't wait to continue going again especially after the renovations

Expérience positive: location is great clean

Expérience négative: I don't like staff here. Hours also so limited The only reason why I go here is just because it is near my house.

Expérience fantastique: Love swimming here!

Expérience fantastique: Best experience here . Love staff !

Expérience négative: Very dirty change rooms no hot water very disorganized

Expérience fantastique: Great swimming trainers like Casper which have excellent training skills with empathy are the reason I would recommend this place for swimming if you are a beginner.

Expérience positive: A very nice aquatic centre with lane pool, dive tank, and whirl pool. No wave pool, kiddie pool, or water slides.

Expérience négative: I am using the swimming pool once a week when the schedule allows for over 2hrs lane swim. Last Tuesday a young associate interrupted my swimming asking me to leave the lane so another faster swimmer can use the lane. I moved to the adjustent slower lane only to find that the replacement swimmer was slower than me an barely did any swimming before leaving in less than 10 mins. In watching the activities in that "fast" lane I was removed from, I noticed that most of swimmers were slower than me which even made some relatively faster swimmer to join the lane I was using with no intervention by that associate or the others. I felt realy upset to realize that I was personally targeted and discriminated against using the cover of the rules. I complained to the facility coordinator who danced around the situation mentioning irrelevant cases of some clients behaviors. I felt frustrated and said to myself, if there are few places in this city where some may be treated unequal like second class citizens , definitely this get to be one.

Expérience positive: Good experienced Instructors for swiming lessons clean areas although in the changing room people just get naked infront of everybody which is disrespectful and there are kids there too.

Expérience fantastique: Nice cozy centre, not so many people, sauna is hotter than others once in the public centers.

Expérience fantastique: They have a pool! Sick!

Expérience négative: I enrolled my son into preschool level one. The instructor that they assigned for the class was inexperienced and unprofessional. Three of the five lessons my son didn’t make it into the water until 15-17 minutes in of an 30 minute lesson even though the other three kids were guided in. Orlando seemed as though he was thoughtlessly making things up along often just telling the children what to do without showing an example of what he was asking. When any of the children that were enrolled showed fear he immediately went to the next child instead of guiding them through it. We are on lesson four out of five and my son has maybe received two minutes of hands on teaching from Orlando before they brought in another instructor. Although the pool in itself is amazing and the other instructors are amazing I would highly recommend enrolling with any one else aside from Orlando

Expérience négative: The pool is very small and basic

Expérience fantastique: Great facility love the gym and dive pool

Expérience fantastique: Very friendly personnel and instructors. Very clean change room and pool areas. Great facility and well kept over all these years. Now my grandchildren enjoy taking swimming lessons here!!

Expérience fantastique: Great facility with a hot tub shallow and deep pools weight room and fitness class room. All drop in courses I have attended are well instucted and not crowded.

Expérience négative: My experience at Canyon Meadows Pool was far from satisfactory, and I would highly recommend considering other sports centers if possible. As the saying goes, 'A few individuals can spoil the whole business....' The pool supervisor and a particular older female lifeguard, exhibit extremely impolite behavior. Their aggressive attitude towards customers has significantly tainted the overall experience.

Expérience fantastique: Good facility

Expérience positive: nice place, relatively clean would like friendlier staff

Expérience fantastique: Great place for fitness, swim, sauna & hot tub Good relaxation place

Expérience fantastique: Best training center for all age groups

Expérience négative: My son and I went swimming after school around 4pm and it was fine We went today and there was one employee helping a family, we stood for over 15 minutes waiting to pay as a drop in. On the website it doesn't say anywhere that there is no swimming now from 4-6 pm. Another employee came to help the first employee as he was having issues helping the family and asked what we wanted. I said to pay for drop in swimming and she said there's no swimming from 4-6 it's cascade. She did not tell us what cascade is and just ignored me and took the next customer. I also want to mention the ceiling in the family bathroom has never been fixed it is just big gaping holes. It looks very bad!

Expérience fantastique: Very great and friendly people are working here.

Expérience négative: (Edited review which was previously 3 stars) Second visit was even worse, I shouldn't have returned, but this location is close to my work and I wanted to go for a swim on the way home. Thinking things would be better was a complete understatement on my part. Me and my girlfriend stopped by for another visit, and felt completely disrespected by a mid-aged female staff member. I was being watched every time I looked up by this lady. I was also told to leave the diving tank because it was "self led exercise". I wasn't using any other features of the diving tank, as I respected that they were closed. We were swimming in the dive tank doing a "self led exercise ", swimming laps, like everyone else. I ended up leaving after the lifeguard went to switch with another guy, where I could see them glaring over smiling. We will never be back and I have already called 311 with a complaint. City of Calgary should spend more time reviewing these reviews and evaluating ways to make the experience better for everyone. I'm clearly not the only one who thinks this way. (INITIAL REVIEW) Upon arrival I was really looking forward to it, looking as if it was one of the newer looking facilities calgary had to offer. Unfortunately, I was a little let down by a few things. The staff seemed as if they wanted nothing to do with anyone during public hours, and it seemed quite unsanitary, as I found a few bandages in the pool at the time I was diving. My girlfriend and I have been consistently visiting different aquatic centers around the city for about a month now, swimming mainly. It was super unfortunate that I couldn't enjoy this one.

Expérience fantastique: Great city facility, staff is great. Pool and locker room are clean.

Expérience positive: Nice place to take the kids for swimming lessons. Prices are affordable but it’s so hard to secure a spot . The city of Calgary has to hire more trainers .

Expérience positive: Pool facility is great, wish they had more lockers that aren’t coin operated

Expérience fantastique: Just joined this place! Very good! Not very busy! Good all around service.

Expérience fantastique: Great clean facility, friendly staff

Expérience positive: 重量訓練的設備雖然不多, 但無論練胸, 肩, 背, 手, 腿都沒問題!

Expérience fantastique: Would love to come back here again.

Expérience négative: Some old age ladies lifeguards on the swimming pool are really rude! The treat you like you are a student

Expérience positive: Gud

Expérience fantastique: It's good. Yep.

Expérience positive: A good place to swim and workout. It's very similar to the other pools run by the City of Calgary. Not really ideal for little kids, but we're still able to have fun.

Expérience fantastique: Great place

Expérience positive: Water in the showers is way toooooo hot!

Expérience négative: Very very rude service, the supervisor is fat and old .very rude behavior to running the business she need go back retraining for her position !! Nasty service!

Expérience fantastique: My son is doing his school swimming lessons here. The pool and change rooms are clean and well kept. The staff are polite and great with kids. Wonderful place for lessons and aqua fitness.

Expérience fantastique: Perfect neighborhood pool to take the kids when the other city pools a are chaos. It’s a calm and relaxing atmosphere for you and the family

Expérience négative: I was not aware but this facility allows men in the women’s change room if a man claims he’s a woman he’s allowed in I’ve reported this over the phone and online and found out there’s been several incidents of men watching children don’t go here if you are a woman or have a child

Expérience fantastique: My little one really enjoyed swimming lessons here

Expérience fantastique: Awesome

Expérience fantastique: Basic equipment but it ain't about how much equipment you have, it's about how much commitment you have. Let's get it

Expérience fantastique: Один з кращих басейнів в Калгарі. Охайний, в гарному районі і з гарним контингентом. Є сушка для волосся під зріст дорослого, чого не бачила в інших місцях.

Expérience positive: Not usually super busy, which is great, but one of the coldest pools I feel like

Expérience négative: Not the easiest to navigate to sign up for drop in classes.

Expérience fantastique: A great place to take the grandkids. Easy access to the pool for people with mobility problems. Too bad the hot tub was closed.

Expérience négative: I just want to warn everyone not to leave your children unattended in the showers and change room. On multiple occasions, when taking my son for swim lessons, I have seen the same odd fellow standing in the change room and watching children getting changed and peering into the shower area. As it's not technically a crime to be in there, there is not much that staff can do about it. Please be cautious.

Expérience fantastique: Excellent

Expérience négative: Unsafe for women and children.

Expérience fantastique: Visited for a 3 day course and was really impressed with the building. The room we were in upstairs was spacious, well lit and equipped. Upstairs also contained the small gym that is contained in a glass room, a bathroom, lockers, drinking fountain, and access to the pool viewing area. The main floor has a free little library, vending machines, local guide books, welcoming staff, and a boot rack for shoes. I was surprised to find that the lost and found is easily accessible besides the front desk, this is where I found my shoes that I had misplaced during one of the days I went! The women's change room is clean and easy to maneuver in. Pools are nice, they are designed for lane swimming and swimming lessons, the dive tank has one diving board and a waterslide that the guards operate, hot tub is hot with jets controlled by the push of a button on the wall. A fun fact I learned was that a nudist club had used this pool after we had left one of the evenings! We were told that staff cover the windows for privacy, how interesting!! I would love to take more courses at this facility in the future if only I lived in Calgary.

Expérience fantastique: Really nice facilities.

Expérience fantastique: Nice please and have a good sauna and swim pool. And the staff are great

Expérience positive: no too busy, nice faclity

Expérience fantastique: Having a community’s aquatic centre rocks! I’ve been here twice and I super enjoyed the swim pools and the hot tub. Felt thoroughly relaxed and sleepy after an hour. Going home now to continue the sleep in my bed.

Expérience fantastique: I had the best help from the staff getting my pass and signing my son up for swimming lessons! Can't wait to try the facilities.

Expérience négative: Says open on Google map but it was closed

Expérience fantastique: Always love coming to this pool. It is clean and the staff are friendly!

Expérience fantastique: Great customer service

Expérience fantastique: Helpful staff. A great place to swim.

Expérience négative: This facility is dirty everywhere. The gym and equipment is filthy, thousands of $ for equipment that has probably never been serviced. The gym floor is horrendous, mirrors are worse, dont think EVER been cleaned in years. The pool area is somewhere you DONT want to wear bare feet. Never in the years I have been going have I ever seen a steam machine in the washrooms/change rooms. Bathroom stalls are disgusting. The staff spend alot of time standing around. Management needs to pay attention to reviews!!

Expérience fantastique: Thank you for absolutely adorable stuff! Yesterday was my first time here, and i absolutely love the facility. Water in the main pool might be a bit warmer, but for that there's a hot tub. :)

Expérience fantastique: This is a great facility with excellent staff. I try to get here three times a week.

Expérience fantastique: Great Aquatic center, amazing staff

Expérience fantastique: Excellent.

Expérience positive: Nice pool friendly staff never been there before.

Expérience fantastique: Great pool

Expérience fantastique: I was there for my grandsons swimming lessons. It is a nice place with a gym as well as the pool. Nice spectators area but it is warm in there, dress for the heat. My granddaughter who watched with me called it a sauna! No picture taking allowed!!!

Expérience positive: Hot Tub was not available it was disappointing. I have Arthritis it sure helps.

Expérience fantastique: Wonderful deep water exercise class today. ThNks for the excellent instruction Helene. No back, neck or ankle pain!!

Expérience fantastique: Canyon Meadows pool has many programs. Weight room and many swimming activities.

Expérience négative: Smells like an Aquarium, clean this BULL up!

Expérience fantastique: Great staff, clean floors.

Expérience fantastique: I enjoy using this pool to get back into shape. The staff are always friendly!

Expérience négative: Good amenities but today Feb 17 at 12:40pm we were in the hot tub and one man told the other that “he has a fungal ear infection and not supposed to be there” and when my partner was in the change room, another old man was peeing in the shower on the floor. I’ve never been so Disgusted in my life!!!! What’s wrong with people?!?!?!

Expérience négative: Staff are pretty rude, small facility but gets the job done. Been here for a while but definitely moving due to the staff

Expérience fantastique: Good place to be when u need to exercise.

Expérience positive: I was there just once and will update my review after couple of weeks. The water was very cold but it is very clean and staff are nice and friendly. Anna is a great instructor if you want to learn swimming

Expérience fantastique: Me and my daughter attend this pool regularly. We have never had an issue and the staff is always a pleasure. Like, seriously. Both pools are warmer than I would expect, they also have a sauna and hot tub, all of which is appreciated! My only disappointment is that Wednesday evening is the only evening that they hold a family/public swim session. So other than that, we can only go on Saturday and Sunday. Would love the option of going one or two other evenings per week, but understand they likely just aren't busy enough for that to be worthwhile on their part. :)

Expérience fantastique: Nice clean facility, good caring staff.

Expérience positive: A great neighborhood pool. It is extremely warm and humid in the viewing gallery area. It felt like a sauna, which on a cool day outside can be quite the welcoming feeling. This place is very clean and organized and the staff are clear about their jobs. The work out gym upstairs is quite decked out with great equipment. In all honesty it does seem that the pool and building could use a bit of a face-lift, but that is me just being picky.

Expérience positive: Very busy at 7:30 pm for lane swimming.

Expérience fantastique: Friendly staff, clean facilities. Great swimming pool (6am crowd makes it better). Foam soap available in showers (at least men's). Not too many lockers for our own locks, 85% are the 25cent take a key lockers. That may be an issue if it gets busier

Expérience fantastique: This community centre is surprisingly fun and efficient. It is a bit smaller than the majority of fitness centres maintain by the city of Calgary, but I have to say that the staff and the environment is extremely pleasant. I will definitely come back!

Expérience fantastique: Very clean pool and locker room! Will continue to use this facility for my family. Thank you.

Expérience fantastique: I enjoy going swimming with my kids the stems room is the best ever.

Expérience fantastique: The staff are very nice. The equipment is me and in good repair.

Expérience fantastique: Nice pool

Expérience fantastique: Nicely renovated swim facility with a weight center and two studios.

Expérience fantastique: This community centre is surprisingly fun and efficient. It is a bit smaller than the majority of fitness centres maintain by the city of Calgary, but I have to say that the staff and the environment is extremely pleasant. I will definitely come back!
