Shoreline Leisure Bray: Opinions
Positive experience: Overall, I like this gym, but it's a bit dirty. If you have dust allergies, be careful. It would also be nice if you could buy a separate membership just for the gym, making it cheaper
Fantastic experience: Great staff and facility
Thank you Aidan
Fantastic experience: I am a member of this fantastic facility for the past 14 years and it is very much part of my weekly routine. The staff are very friendly and helpful. as I am now an OAP the Retired Active classes help to keep me fit and exercised and are very social, too. Gym equipment and other fitness related gear are changed regularly. However, the locker system and cubicle door locks in the Swimmimg area need maintenance and should be repaired on a constant basis. Shoreline Bray is a valuable asset for all ages of the residents in the area.

Negative experience: A disgusting young employee instead of working. He talks to his friends, leaves the sauna door open ,for a remark snaps.
Hi Alexis , Hi [Reviewer’s Name],

We will address this matter with our staff to ensure it doesn’t happen again.Your comments are important to us, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
Negative experience: Google Review – Full Version ⭐⭐ Disappointing Pricing & Access Policies Despite Good Facilities ⭐⭐ While the facilities at [Leisure Centre Name] are well-maintained, the pricing and access policies are highly disappointing and unfair. The biggest issues are: 1. Limited Pool Time for Pay-As-You-Go Users The swimming pool is only available for 50 minutes per session, even though the adult fee is €8.20. This is poor value for money, especially for those who need more time for fitness or rehabilitation. 2. No Pay-As-You-Go Option for the Gym or a Gym & Pool Combo Unlike the pool, the gym is restricted to members only, meaning casual users or visitors have no access. Many other public leisure centres offer pay-as-you-go gym access, making it more flexible and inclusive. There should also be a pay-as-you-go combination option that allows users to access both the gym and pool in one session, promoting full-body fitness at a reasonable price. 3. No Concession Pricing for Pensioners or Social Welfare Recipients In Ballymun Leisure Centre, I can access both the gym and pool for just €5.80 with a concession rate while on social welfare. Here, there are no discounts for pensioners or social welfare recipients, making it unaffordable for many who would benefit from regular exercise. Recommended Changes for a Fairer System: ✅ A pay-as-you-go option for the gym ✅ A gym & pool combination pass for casual users ✅ Concession pricing for pensioners and social welfare recipients ✅ Longer or more flexible swimming sessions beyond 50 minutes Bray is a welcoming town, but the policies at this centre are anything but. I hope to see changes soon so that everyone can fully benefit from this facility.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you find the facilities well-maintained, but we also acknowledge that your experience with our pricing structure has been less than ideal. While we understand your concerns, we want to emphasize that our goal is to maintain fairness by offering one consistent price for all users. We believe this ensures equal access to our facilities for everyone even if they don't align with every individual preference.
We do not offer pay-as-you-go access to the gym due to regulations and the high demand for our gym facilities among our members. This policy helps us manage capacity and ensure that all members have access to the gym when they need it.
While we respect your comparison to another centre, it's important to note that our facilities, policies, and services may differ significantly, which can affect pricing and access. It is a shame that your experience regarding the pricing led to a one-star rating, as we strive to provide a welcoming and well-maintained environment for all our visitors.
We value your feedback and will continue to focus on delivering a positive experience for everyone who uses our centre. If you have any further suggestions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to share them with us. We hope you’ll reconsider your rating after your next visit
Negative experience: Absolute joke, I want to warn people, who go for public swim times, we purchased our tickets at 5pm, changed at the lockers and swam by 5:15. The buzzer sounded at 5:45 and we were asked to get out of the pool. I asked why, apparently the tickets are for an hour. Nobody informed us. In my opinion it's a horrible rip off!!! Never again!
Thank you for your feedback. We want to clarify that our swim session times are clearly marked on our pool timetable and outlined in our pool policies on the website. The payment price is for one session only, and not for multiple sessions throughout the day. We understand that sometimes getting changed can take a little longer, and we encourage guests to plan ahead to ensure they can enjoy the full swim session and to be mindful of the session start and end times. We appreciate your understanding and encourage everyone to plan accordingly to make the most of their swim time.
Positive experience: Pool relatively cold Changing rooms very cold and in need of a clean
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate your input regarding the pool temperature and the condition of the changing rooms. We will review these concerns to ensure a more comfortable experience for our guests moving forward. Your comments are valuable in helping us improve our facilities.
Fantastic experience: Great gym, signed up this week. Did my assessment with Luke and he was so helpful and so friendly, gave me a great programme suited to my goals.
Thank you Amy , great to here your assessment went well.
Fantastic experience: I get lessons here
Thank you Wendy, great to hear your Lessons went well
Fantastic experience: Friendly and clean!
Thank you Des
Negative experience: Good equipment in gym, helpful staff, new steam room & sauna but the cleanliness levels have been deteriorating badly over the past year. Black mould in the Ladies Change Room showers & a new shocking low last week: human excrement!!! No staff ticks on the room check & no manager on duty. The place is going downhill fast.
Positive experience: First time here, bottom pool was dirty ,gym 4 starts need upgrade the price for getting in is good deal See next time .
Positive experience: Everything you need in a gym is here, very good service.
Fantastic experience: Nice and clean place
Thank you Anna
Fantastic experience: Luka and Stephan are both equally just as friendly and catering !!! Had a little caffeine overdose the other day and Luka bought me a popcorn to help with my recovery process !! Stephan consistently brings me water when i’m thirsty from using the sauna and is always up for the chats ! Amazing staff
Positive experience: We go here regularly, but at this point it needs maintenance... The handles and locks on the changing rooms are either broken or non existing. And even though there are signs to tell people not to leave stuff in the changing rooms, most of them do.. So it's not enforced.
Fantastic experience: Great place, great atmosphere and great food. It doesn't matter what age you are you will have a good time here
Fantastic experience: Great staff, super helpful. Good facilities and people are polite
Fantastic experience: Perfect place. You can swim in the pool and also visit the sauna or hammam.
Positive experience: Good facilities, nice staff. Has a sauna and steam room. Pool is also good but they book out lanes for lessons too often, so that outside of evenings it's hard to find a time to actually swim; this misdeed is compounded by the fact these folk overrun their time allotments too. There I am, waiting in the open section with the other commoners, hoping to get the jump on a lane but 8pm, the coaches are still taking their sweet time. Noone says anything and that fills me with the rage of a thousand suns. Could also do with cleaning men's changing room floor more often. Also, who's buying popcorn at these places? Anyways, still a decent gym/pool.
Positive experience: Great gym and good facilities. Staff a re lovely. Only issue is the groups of "Bros" hogging machines and gathering in groups on the machines. Other than that a great all round gym.
Fantastic experience: Nice pool and amazing staff
Thank you Gary for the great Feedback
Fantastic experience: Great local pool for lengths of for kids swim with friendly staff
Negative experience: Very disappointed with it, another lady have to fix the card number when I enter the gym cuz they key they put my number in wrong. they said the whole system on the computer went wrong and took twice of the payment off me for two months, they said they don’t even know when my money will be back. The girl didn’t say I need take a 30 days in advance to cancel the membership so I still have to pay when I want to cancel it. I hope they train their staff more professionally before letting them serve the customers
Positive experience: I like the it's very clean and well kept
Fantastic experience: Great customer service
Thank you Inga
Fantastic experience: Warm, clean and a very friendly helpful staf.
Thank you Maeve
Negative experience: ZERO STANDARDS GYM. Went there few times and never again... People going onto the gym floors with their winter jackets and bags, never changing, bringing their partners over that sit on machines on their phones just waiting, changing rooms are dirty with dust and dirt so ancient its most likely worth something at this stage [just look at the top of lockers or hairdryer holders in changing rooms], people walking to the pool area in their winter shoes, dangerous equipment [holes in the floor in the squat racks upstairs where youre supposed to stand]. And I would give you a prize if you show me someone wiping the equipment after sweating all over it. Staff holds this place to no standard, even though their rules enforce particular behaviour. The general manager is a lazy, zero responsibility for the place, its falling apart. Should be sacked immediately.
Positive experience: Its alright
Thank You Jack, please do let us know how we can improve our services for your next visit :)
Negative experience: Had really bad experience on a couple occasions in the pool where exactly the same staff member was targeting me with his comments. If it happens again I will have to file a written complain for that bad treatment to stop.
Positive experience: I feel that they really need cleaner floors.
Thank you Louise, we have passed your feedback to your team and hope to improve our services
Negative experience: There is potential for this place with the right management I think. Unfortunately, I struggle to find a spot throughout common areas, gym, pool, changing rooms that is even close to what you would consider 'clean'. And it's not the kind of unclean from the day, this place doesn't get a deep clean regularly and it shows. It's dirty in there, the walls, floors, seats, everywhere you look needs a wipe or good clean. Disappointing the as children in our community use the facilities daily, you would think it wouldn't be a hard job to do.
Fantastic experience: Nice swimming pool
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Place is great and when heading there with the kids there's never any messing around just friendly welcoming smiles,,, staff are top of the pops
Thank you Shaunie for your kind words
Fantastic experience: Very well swimming pool. the instructors are very attentive!!!!! children's camp is a wonderful leisure activity for children the children were happy Thank you very much ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
Thank you for your kind words
Fantastic experience: Very well organised gym and fitness facilities. The pool is always clean and the water is warm. My advice is just to consult the timetable beforehand as somethimes there are swimming classes and some of the lanes are occupied. There are two gym areas both equipped with everything necessary for a full body workout. The staff is always helpful and friendly. I highly recommend the group trainings, especially spinning with Camile and the aqua fit, which are included into the price of the card. There are options for off peak hours and student discount. Recommended!
Thank you Angelina for your kind words
Fantastic experience: Love to have found this place. Nice people, great pool. Easy to come and start swimming. Enjoy the single swim option.
Thank you Misha for your kind words
Fantastic experience: Great customer service and trainer
Thank you Willem
Fantastic experience: Absolutely excellent place extremely well managed. Pools spotless
Thank You Eleanor
Positive experience: Bright and spacious public pool. Good facilities and friendly staff.
Positive experience: Everything required for a good workout. 25m pool, gym, free weights, studios and outdoor pitches with sauna and steamroom for recovery. Building is little tired in places and the usual problems in any facility are there; inability of people to self identify the most fitting swimlane (occasionally challenged by staff but rarely) and sitting on gym equipment for long periods without doing anything (beyond reasonable recovery periods - wonder if they think they will absorb other peoples gains by osmosis....)
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the gym so bright and spacious with great equipment which is always clean. Best gym I’ve been to.
Positive experience: Brilliant aqua aerobics class today.
Fantastic experience: In for a swim. Locker area could do with some TLC, few doors missing on lockers and changing rooms. Also a few " tw - ats " who can't read the signs in the sauna. "No water or oils" on the coals. Other than that, the front of house staff are friendly and facilities were good. $$$ wasn't to bad - 18 for 2 adults and 1 child under 10. Pool was busy and calm at the same time, and there was plenty of lifeguard coverage. ** update ** much the same as last time. Doors on lockers need attention, doors on changing stalls need attention, floors around the pool had green alge, pools need a little bit of a deep clean. The place doesn't reek of chlorine, which is a good thing! Chap on reception is excellent
Fantastic experience: Great
Fantastic experience: Nice place lovely people working in. All staff are very kind and respectful. Sometimes the place needs more staff to clean the toilet and the common areas.
Fantastic experience: Son swims here. Staff are very friendly and attentive. Pool and changing facilities are clean and tidy.
Positive experience: The astro pitches need a refurbishment, rock hard astro, some of the flood lights not working and goals inset into the walls are a big no no in my opinion. Never used the gym or pool areas of this place so not able to comment. Ample parking onsite.
Fantastic experience: Very professional team. Kerri was very helpfull and knowledgeable. Well done all.
Thank you John

Negative experience: Facilities are good, but the closing at 6pm on weekends is way too early. For many people, weekends are only time they'll get to the gym, and for many only in the evenings. Most close at 9 or 10 on weekend

Fantastic experience: Бассейн теплый, чистый, нашей семье очень понравился. Раздевалки просторные, чистые. Есть сауны. Шапочку для плавания надо иметь обязательно. Рекомендую. Рядом с бассейном шикарный парк. The pool is warm, clean, our family loved it. Changing rooms are spacious and clean. There are saunas. A swimming cap is a must. I recommend. There is a beautiful park next to the pool.
Thank you Anna, We are glad you enjoyed your family day with us.
Positive experience: Football pitches need relaying
Thank you Gillan for your feedback ,we have past this onto the relevant Astro pitch team.
Positive experience: Full of light, space, and friendly people. View to the Little Sugarloaf while you swim. Cheap entry tickets! You don’t have to be a member, just pay and go! 7€ adult, 4€ children. Sauna there too. (Wooden one). Only minus, that the steam room is not working temporarily.
Thank you Justyna for your review :)

Thank you for your kind Review Charlie :)
Positive experience: Nice clean gym nice people but they don't implement good gym edicate. Swarms of zombie teens taking over, siting looking at there phone for 25 minutes on a machine without using it, 6 or 7 lads standing around 1 machine not using it and sniggering. More rules required, more signs and staff trained to point out the rules to these cohorts.
Fantastic experience: Been to aqua aerobics this morning wonderful class instructor full of enthusiasm great way to start a day off work.
Thank you Elaine, glad we could start your day the right way :)
Positive experience: Pool long and good for exercise staff very friendly and helpful

Positive experience: Llamé por teléfono para verificar si me había dejado el bañador en el cambiador y me dijeron que me lo guardarían, cuando fui a recogerlo me dijeron que no lo encontraban. Las instalaciones muy bien, está muy completo, hay que ver cuándo hay menos gente para la piscina pero bien.
Fantastic experience: I use the centre only for the swimming pool with my kids and it is very good for that.

Fantastic experience: Great pool!
