Goodlife Health Clubs

Was the best gym ever until they put in those AWFUL blinding new lights.came in for a workout and immediately left to another gym after my eyes started to literally hurt from the brightness.the light trails were burned into my eyes whenever I closed them.please change the lights back or at least turn them down!

I do not appreciate the fact that staff at this gym use the facilities to film content for their own social media. I was just trying to do my workout on the 24/08 (around 0800) when I saw one of the female PT's was setting up a phone on a tripod. This PT also seemed to require another PT who is trans to 'spot' her with a feeble weight to do seated shoulder press.
Goodlife has enough posters around stating that video and pictures in the gym are prohibited. However, when you want to film content for your Instagram or OnlyF that rule seems to not exist.
If your PT's want to film themselves in underwear using gym equipment, they should use their own gyms. Not the equipment of their employer and get in the way of patrons who are trying to use their membership.

I am consistently tired of the adolescent boys and girls who just come to 'hang out' at the gym during peak hours. They take up space, do nothing other than consume oxygen and make the gym appear to be a school playground. Additionally, of a weekend, after hours, these same adolescents let all their friends into the gym through the after hours exit.
I hate the fact the men's change room is generally pretty disgusting with its smells and has no ventilation going on in there. You cross a wall of odour and have to inhale the scents of dozen's of 15 yr old guys whose definition of a shower is a spray can of Lynx.

The equipment, especially the pin loaded stuff is old and poorly maintained. Almost no-one unracks their weights particularity around the squat racks causing consistent trip hazards. People just leave benches in the path between the smith machines and leg press, thus blocking the way. The music is nauseatingly loud, the staff that I do see on the floor do very little tidying of the area and seem to have little regard for their workplace.
The gym has a distinctly unprofessional atmosphere and I have reached the point of where I am unwilling to tolerate it any longer.

Got ripped off as they kept charging me for an extra year and a half dont sign up with them

The equipment in the gym is a little old but mostly well maintained. The gym is generally pretty busy in the mornings not sure about the afternoon or nites. The bathrooms have very poor airflow, ventilation and it’s incredibly hot in there. You take a cold shower and come out to continue to sweat. I can’t imagine what it would be like in summer. The design of the bathroom encourages people to take a piss and not wash their hands. I’ve seen this about a few times already.

If you enjoy broken outdated equipment, standing around waiting for the free weights to be available because there is 1 of the size you want, and having to wear noise cancelling headphones because some genius decided to put a spin class in the middle of the gym with no walls surrounding it (be warned even with your headphones turned up to the point of potential hearing loss, you can still hear the spin instructors screaming like banshees over your music, as they have no consideration for anyone else in the gym) then this is the place for you! Rest assured as soon as a Worlds or Fitness Cartel open up the place will be a ghost town

Went to the Carindale Goodlife for the first time last night after hearing good things about this gym. I was shocked at how dirty and how different the atmosphere was at this Goodlife compared to others I have trained in. Did not have a welcoming atmosphere at all and the overall feel was quite dodgy and unpleasant.

I've been treated nothing but like a 5 star member by the staff members at this club. Cameron, Trish, Emma and Sonya have always been very helpful (my apologies if there are more staff that I've left out but credits to them too)
Nice set-up & good equipment.
I signed up to an 18 month contract with no regrets & KNOW that it's going to remain fantastic.
Thank you guys 'n ladies for all the support.

This gym has pool and spa and I think because of these facilities they don’t care about maintenance and cleanliness. In steam room and sauna you can see tissues left there for more than a week and no one care to clean it! Mold is also visible in some area as this is very dangerous for health! Locker room and showers are not clean at all.
Staffs are nice and friendly and always supportive but I think they don’t have sufficient supervision on keep the place clean.

It’s got a decent selection of equipment and weights to use. The facilities and sauna are pretty good.

Beware of the “30 days free” incentives
It’s just tacked on to the back end of your membership when trying to cancel.

Spent 3 months requesting an after hours tag which they were unable to provide.
Paying for a 24 hour service and was unable to attend unless in staffed hours.

Legit a joke.

I took a tour of the venue here, and they have state-of-the-art gym equipment. The staff were friendly and helpful, they answered all my questions in detail.

After reading all reviews mostly bad I’d like to thank everyone for convincing me not to join Goodlife. Sounds like a disaster no one should sign up for. Goodlife do better because potential customers actually read reviews that determine whether to join. Disappointing

Good gym, only come here for thr sauna and steam room which is normally broken so that's a bummer. But great when it works.

The management at this store is absolutely atrocious. The sales rep mislead my sister into thinking she was signing up for a free trial but was actually tricked into signing a 12 month contract which she could not get out of. They kept deducting money from her account even when she froze her membership. They never refunded her the hundreds of dollars they took from her. Disgusting and disappointing behaviour.

I got peer pressured to sign up but a rep who would wait for me to finish work when I worked in the centre. I felt like I had to sign up - I never went to get a swipe fob &didn’t have an introduction around the club. I have been paying $17 a fortnight for over a 1.5 years and haven’t been allowed to cancel my member. Horrible.

I was recommended by staff member to use kubofit pass. I think it does not work for purpose to grab extra $25 from the members. App did not work on that day so I still went in as I believe it is not my fault that app didn't work and got charged fine as tailgater.now trying to avoid Carindale.

Was issued a 24/7 pass that didn’t work and left my phone at home one day, so one of the other members let me in to train. Just found out this gym fines members for tailgating. If technology doesn’t work, have a member of staff for after hours or set up an alternative system, but don’t charge already paying members for using the gym.

I was told to come in for a free trial but they ended up charging me $25 for a session. What a rip off

Gym can be ok - IF you attend before approximately 3.30pm. (Almost impossible to use required equipment after this time as it is EXTREMELY Over populated. Air conditioning rarely works. Gym equipment seemingly always out of order. Weights unorganised. I highly do not recommend this specific gym.

I come here every week and have done so for over two years.i appreciate the vibe and the customer service team.my issue is with a particular female personal trainer there who ignored my attempts at communication clearly and didn't bother to follow up. I get the feeling there seems to be a competitive "I'm better then you" kind of attitude it's extremely unprofessional and sad and I expected better, luckily some of the newer personal trainers seem to know the importance of a customer.and have returned my attempts to contact them.
