Really good customer service. Sales consultant was really nice and patient with it came to me opening a new membership. I will continue attending Virginia active π.
Nothing short of amazing compared to other gyms I visited. Has a sauna, friendly and helpful staff. Place is clean and adhere to strict covid 19 infection control measures.
The staff genuinely friendly they make you feel confident to workout, Starting from the reception to the fitness team Jeremy and Luke.
I Love going there...its just another family that you visit everytime...always Awesome.
Old equipment however the staff is friendly including the cleaners, security officers are always on their cellphone not checking members vehicles
I think the gym could really do with an upgrade. The place is neat and clean but they need to get new equipment like their incline presses and weight press machines.
Pool and gym at a price only few can afford... make the Poor in the Plain happy by offering jaw dropping low gym membership for a year... prices so low...the competition will fold
Was good , Covid compliant
There are great vibes within this virgin Active. A short waiting queue outside but once in equipment is readily available.
What can I say. Its better than zone fitness.
Staff is very friendly & helpful. The members greet one another like family. Wonderful vibe
Love the vibe here!!!! awsome place to meet side chicks and side guys!!!! whichever you prefer
Staff is very friendly and helpful. All the people is so welcoming every one talks to you. Great sense of community in the club
This has in a way become my second home. VA in general is a great gym. Each VA gym has its own layout and variety of classes.The staff in general are always great and friendly. The greet you when you arrive and when you leave. The facilities are always kept clean and tidy and professional. The security measure VA Westgate regarding scanning your card when driving out makes one feel that your car is safe while gyming.The overall gym experis always great.
Good points:- Rare weight lifting equipment- Big weight section (Could be expanded considering the cardio section is barely used.)- SpaciousBad points:- Equipment are old and not oiled well.- The dumbbells are in dire need of replacing. They are essentially falling apart.- The gym is very untidy with weights lying all over the place with you often not being able to find some dumbells or plates. This could be due to members but staff needs to reinforce good behavior.- Dumbells etc are dirty and leave your hands black. (I usually wouldnt mind but it just means its not being cleaned which is risky with COVID)
I love that all the machines and weights are on one floor. I love the older machines as they are more focused on muscle worked. This gym has some rare, amazing machines that you wont find at most VAs. Showers are clean and tidy. Staff are few but helpful. Just needs a height adjustable cable machine, dumbbells need some serious upgrades and labelling, and water units leak or dont work.
Very disorganized, the bad music and outdated equipment, but still does the trick..
The front reception lady that worked Wednesday and Thursday evening. Always have a smile and stand with a mission to help.Always say goodbye with a beautiful smile. I dont have her name but she is the Muslim lady.
Well everybody knows that its the vibe at this gym that beats them all. Equipment is due for an upgrade but all in working order tho. Friendly staff and each person is more than willing to help the next.
Staff always helpful even security. I love the fact that there is no time limit, when you swimming.
A very nice place to work out and body build
Awesome Gym
Love the place. Awesome vibe
Hands down great service!!
Lovely gym, and friendly staff.
Friendly service, neat and tidy.
I must see to my health and fitness. nice friendly gym. the guys are friendly and helpful. they see to whatever you need to have a good workout session. the aqua-robics is the place for me.
Poor maintenance and poor management..This is the second time the steamroom is not working. I sat 1hr waiting on a steamroom, this is very disturbing and disappointing actually..
Cheapest Virgin Active Health Club in the chain probably because of the social perception of Mitchells Plain. I can tell you the staff are friendly and always willing to help and the members are also keen to chat and have a laugh. It is a very welcoming environment with a guard to watch over the vehicles with controlled access. I feel safe in going here. The equipment is a little older than the Flagships but perfectly adequate for all your exercising needs and a huge workout class venue for cycling and boxing amongst others like Yoga for example. The pool is immaculate and well worth the fee alone. Its a steal of a price you can go to this gym for.
Who doesnt love a good workout.
Amazing reception
Very nice environment and place to gym at
Weights maybe need a upgrade but functional equipment is well stocked. Staff as per always are great.
The floor attendees or gym staff are clueless about high intensity exercise as they require you to wear your mask while they literally see you struggling breathing for air. #Clueless #Misinformed They want you to wear your mask even if youre 2m apart from another individual. The issue needs to be addressed.
I think itβs a shame that this gym is so plain compared to some other Virgins in Cape Town. Maybe they donβt have a lot of members? Their equipment is in great, new condition, and thereβs always treadmills available, but I would love a water fountain or two. The change rooms are always clean, but the finishing a bit rudimentary. Even the Kauai seems to have different ingredients (processed chicken rather than filleted, etc). I still enjoy going here during breaks from work, all the staff are very friendly. Good parking space, and it feels secure. There is no security in the security booth though, mmmh?
The gym recently got an upgrade but I think more can be done to enhance your experience at the gym and want you to come back more. The staff is generally very friendly and know their stuff. Also the place is always clean. For now I think it is a cool place to train.
I have attended this gym a few times and I wasnt as impressed as most people. However I might not be the best judge because I have limited experience visiting this branch. They have all the necessary equipment I guess and a pool so its fairly well equipped. Give it a visit and add a better comment to help others.
Nice workout
Enjoyed my visit. Had an explosive spinning class. Nicely layed out. Invites you to turn up and do your workout
Awesome place to work out and private swimming lessons offered for toddlers/kids.
Very professional and kind staff members.
The gym is nice ....but the toilets are SUPER CLEAN! Wow! Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful experience.
Big weight section! Has all the other equipment a normal Virgin active health club will have. However, the weights are old and some equipment also needs replacing. Other than that I found everything I needed at this gym.
My favorite gym always nice being here. The staff are very friendly and they always smile and greet when you enter and leave. I love this gym and forever I will stick with them
Great gym. Better than most of the prime area gyms. Operating hours are longer. Free parking. Boom access control. Huge pool.
Love it. Gym in good nick serves all my needs Would recommend it. Off peak best time to gym peak times tend to get too full.
Fast and effecient service as I signed up again after a few years, the place is clean and machines have been upgraded.
Splendid
Always have a good experience at this particular club. You feel welcome and the machines are up to standard. Friendly helpful staff.
Awesome vibe, up to date equipment. Facilities are neat. The kauai makes decent post gym meals
Ive been to most of virgin active gyms in Cape town .this gym tops it the family feeling and warm welcome you get from people .I just hope that this gym gets new weight training weight .
Good place for a workout. Reception staff must be an example to the clientsThey all seem unfit and not active. Facilities are great. Swimming pool well maintained.
Very clean pool is lovely
I love it there... Staff and festivities awesome
The staff is amazing
Good vibe. Enthusiastic classes
I have visited this gym many times especially when Im in the area. Get in, destroy weights, get out. Love it
Perhaps its the time at which I go, but a clean and nicely equipped gym without the crowd. I especially like the pool, which is spotless.
I enjoy my time at this gym. I always go on days where its not too full.
Awesome vibe. Awesome staff
Definitely joining the club soon! Love the classes and the atmosphere
Great gym. Not overcrowded, plenty of space and youll encounter alot less ego maniacs than any other gym
Could improve safety in parking bay... Not really safe for late night and early morning gym members
Great gym. Excellent staff & always ready to assist.
The best family fitness Mitchells Plain can offer ....5 stars
Decent gym facilities. Can become crowded around peak times, unless you plan on working your legs hahaha
Its a great place to do a workout, however it could get very crowded during peak hours between 4:30 pm - 7pm.
Kauai slow and staff have to be summoned. Gym is clean but I find the pool a bit warm (26-28degrees)
Pool is fantasticReally enjoy my classes with Jerane and Nawaal.
The weights area is constantly untidy. Its the only Virgin Active in the Western Cape where the weights are left to lie around all over the floor
Equipment needs a upgrade. Cant find dumbell weights always lying around. Time for upgrade.
Love the atmosphere here very friendly, some machines are abit outdated but overall very good experience
It was very nice comfortable an Great
Good gym friendly staff but no saunaπ’
Nice staff, advanced equipment, and great classes, Im glad I joined
Awesome vibe. Very friendly assistance
Because of the water shortage in the province we dont have the steam room, its been off this whole year but now we have bore hole water and the swimming pool is functional. We have plenty water and we supply other branches with water but we still cant have the steam room on but I think its now political, in the white areas they cant have bore hole because they mostly in the shopping malls for their convenience as usual now we must suffer because they going to complain if we have a steam room and they dont, really now? Pathetic, talk about apartheid in the new South Africa.
Joined and happy with my workouts, hope to achieve my goal
Sound like a disco inside no need for that load music...
Good training classes for groups and individuals too
Nice clean health club with a indoor pool
Club needs work.Outdated equipment leading to frequent breakage.
New club member, I think the places needs a bit of TLC to bring back to live.
Friendly staff and very helpful
Place clean. Water saving measures in place.
If u into fitness this is the place to come too.
Excellent facilities. Spacious
Greatest gym house
Lovely surroundings and close to me for my daily workout
Hate that the spikes at the booms dont go down!!
