$2 Summer dips are great. Clean pool. Sometimes you have to share a lane but that’s all good.

Drove 39mins to come there to find our pool is booked out with no mention on the website this is a regular thing for this pool make sure you call staff before coming to avoid disappointment

This place has it all, but i really love the most is their outdoor swimming pool. I like to swim here and to relax whenever I have time. Highly recommended!

Very good pool, 50 metres, sometimes divided into 2 x 25 metres. Changerooms have changing cubicles, shower cubicles, benches, electrical outlets at the mirror. Lounge chairs available under shade; other chairs in the sun. Coffee available, shop selling swimming gear.

On a few occasions the pool has not been cleaned- on one occasion I saw a coffee lid and plastic wrapper at the bottom of the pool.

As mentioned by some people, this pool is slowly going from being 'public' to 'private'. The last couple of weekends I've turned up and half the pool was reserved for water polo or other private groups. This was despite checking the official lane availability schedule on the website which claimed all lanes were available. When I mentioned this to the person at reception, he gave no explanation or apology. Some weeks half the time is reserved for water polo, carnivals or squad training.

While most staff are nice and friendly, I have had the one or two who are not.

Great pool. The water is beautiful to swim in. So clean. Just pick ur time to go as it gets busy! Waterpolo and school carnivals does mean pool access at these times is limited. Always check program and lane availability. This pool is where the swim team train. There are a couple of gyms. You can laze around in a banana chair and the staff are good.

Lovely 50m pool and 25m division on one side when I was there. Good signs for when closed for public swimming.

I only go there because it is close to my place but I really did not like it. I paid for a single entry the other day and I was shoved to a different lane as it turned out a PT booked 4 lanes for training. Then few minutes later they claimed the 5th lane. It was also annoying to swim with the fast ones in the same lane. The other lanes were cut in half which I would not use. There was no warning before hand about the training sessions taking place at that time.

Always rented out to businesses closing half the lanes or the entire pool. Locals can’t rely on it for exercice. Hard to call it a public pool.

Best place to swim close to Brisbane CBD.clear water and friendly staff. Make sure you check Lane availability before going as the pool host school carnivals and water polo games.

Great spot in the heart of the valley to escape the heat. They sell coffee, smoothies, cold drinks, goodies and even have a bar! The only flaw personally, is there isn't much room, if any, dedicated for people who aren't swimming laps. You try and cool off and there's always someone able to swim laps right next to you no matter where you get in.

Fantastic pool with crystal clear water. Love the way the pool is divided into 25m and 50m lanes as you often get a lane to yourself. Sun loungers and shade cloth provide a great space for hanging out. Friendly, helpful staff that greet me by name when I visit. Gym is quite small, but has adequate cardio and weights equipment. Coffee is good and toasties are what any reasonable person would expect buying food at a swimming pool. ;-)

Warning. The TC’s for joining on a casual are not clear that there is an excessive joining fee. It’s not worth the 17$ odd dollars a week nor the 70$ odd dollars to join.

The gym its self is disappointing, small, cramped, dated, no air flow, no wall space,

The pool is great - I give you that. So save yourself money and just pay as you go.

Better city pools with gyms out there in Brisbane.

Michael and his team provide phenomenal friendly and authentic service. Best banana bread and coffee in the area and great prices. Brilliant

Classic! Great staff! All the other patrons know lane etiquette. Great for lap swimming. Perhaps not for a family outing. My first visit to the pool in almost 40 years when I did holiday work at Coca-Cola bottlers in the Valley! It hasn't changed.

Nice clean 50m pool right in the CBD. The grandstands are looking a bit old but the coffee was good and the chicken nuggets were great!

Incredible facilities. 50m pool that converts to 2 x Olympic size Water Polo ‍️ Pools. Friendly staff, heated in winter. A great Council facility!
