I’ve updated my previous review after spending more time at the facility and interacting with additional staff. I was especially impressed by Jared, the manager, who was kind, patient, and very receptive to the concerns I shared. He addressed them promptly and thoughtfully and made me feel like a valued member. I’m also very grateful for the lifeguards on staff. They are friendly, professional, and clearly take their roles seriously, which makes a big difference for families. My only ongoing challenge is the limited parking, and I genuinely wish there were even more of these outstanding lifeguards on duty. Overall, I’m hopeful and appreciative of the efforts being made.
I absolutely love Alaska Club and have been going for years. As the company has grown and added a hot yoga studio, splash park, and now have the trampoline park it has been amazing to be able to use the facility with my family. The only thing that stands out as an issue for me is specifically South Club locker rooms. Now that they are gearing their business to gain more families there is way more people in the family locker rooms. The family locker rooms also have smaller lockers which make no sense since if you have kids you end up having way more stuff. They should structure more like East and allow families in the larger locker rooms and have the old family lockers be 21 and over section or something like that.
I am beyond disappointed with the service at this gym. I pay hundreds of dollars a month specifically for the convenience of the childcare/daycare services, yet I have been turned away twice now. The issues center entirely around one staff member, Stephanie. During my previous visit, she stopped me to ask if I had a reservation before telling me she would "let it slide" this time. However, I watched her immediately check in a white mother right after me without asking for a reservation or any proof of booking. Today, I drove all the way here only to be turned away again. Stephanie claimed there is a "two-baby maximum" because she was working alone—a "rule" I have never encountered with any other staff member, nor is it consistently enforced. The core issues: • Inconsistency: Rules seem to be made up on the spot or applied only to certain members. • Targeted Treatment: Seeing other members bypass the "requirements" I’m grilled on is unacceptable and feels discriminatory. • Lack of Resolution: When I brought this to management’s attention, I was handed "guest passes." I am already a high-paying member; guest passes do nothing to compensate for the gas, time, and childcare I am paying for but being denied. If you are looking for a gym that treats its members equitably and honors the services you pay for, look elsewhere. I expect a much higher standard of professionalism for the price of this membership.
We've been now to a summer camp and winter break camp and our son absolutely has a blast. There camps are really geared towards kids with lots of energy because they do a lot of physical playing. Which our son loves it. If you have a high energy kid and want him to get the most of his summer, send them to the Alaska Club camp. (Our experience has only been at Alaska Club South camp)
I love how this is set up more for the children, has more slides and other kid water toys. Plus the sauna and steam rooms are better than the East Alaska Club. This site also has a warm pool, for those who get cold easily.
