My friend and I have been checking out gyms around Melbourne to decide which one we want to join. Today we went to Melbourne baths and were heaps lucky to have a tour by Joe. He’s an awesome, knowledgeable employee and made us feel super welcome. Some gyms make women feel intimidated but it wasn’t the case here. We had a not-so-pleasant experience being late to a Pilates class, and were about to leave feeling pretty disheartened, but Joe completely turned our experience around. The gym itself has everything and is super beautiful and clean. We’ll be back soon for sure, thanks Joe.

Today I went to view Melbourne city baths as I’m looking for a home gym in the CBD, I was greeted by the lovely Joe at reception. Joe gave a very informative tour, he answered all of my questions and queries. Gyms can be intimidating at times and Joe really went to an effort making me feel comfortable while in the space, he was a complete gentleman. It’s experiences like this that can really make or break your perception as at times gyms can be not so female orientated and where customer service really matters. While viewing the gym I was surprised to see how vast and how many spaces are accessible for use, with ample machines and classes to choose from. The building its self is incredibly cool with a deep history. The customer service especially from Joe was second to none as well as the facilities. Best gym in Melbourne so far!

Joined free summer swimming lessons for a week, loved it! Special thank you to Vanessa and her amazing positive energy, individual support, and encouragement. You pushed me in a way that helped me improve so fast in such a short time and gain so much confidence in the water. Your classes were fun and supportive, and you made every session a joy! 😊

We had another great time in Melbourne. This was our second port of call on the cruise. I didn't do any sightseeing here, just shopping. The sales were really good, not that I like to leave buying presents to the last minute, but sometimes it's good to. Anyway Melbourne can't be faulted, with so many great and interesting activities to do. Have a holiday in Melbourne, you won't regret it.
