I have been calling Goleta Valley Athletic Club my home gym for over 15 years. The facility, faculty and the members make this gym ver special. It is not the newest gym around, but it is always improving, upgrading and listening to the members. You won’t find more space anywhere. The pool and hot tub require no wait times or sign ups. The classes are top notch and varied to meet the needs of everyone. The weight rooms indoors and outside provide everything anyone could ever need.

I have been a member here for many years, and it’s easily the best gym in town. There’s a huge variety of both free weights and machines, massive amounts of open space complete with both indoor and outdoor training areas. It’s never overwhelmingly crowded, making it easy to get efficient and effective workouts in no matter what equipment you want to use. The atmosphere and vibe of the gym is fantastic. The staff is always friendly, welcoming, positive and supportive, making this a place you look forward to working out at. If you want a gym that is very well equipped, has a great atmosphere and people who care, this is your gym.

Every other week the pool, steam room, or locker rooms are out of service. Showers are gross with gnats everywhere and they look 30 years old. Equipment is not repaired even when staff are notified. There is no effort to engage or appreciate members which is unusual for such a small gym. Never busy and now we know why.

GVAC is a great gym with a ton of amenities. I chose it because it has both a steam room and dry sauna in addition to pool and jacuzzi. The weight rooms (there are several of them indoors and also some areas with outdoor equipment) are never crowded and the overall vibe is pleasant. Staff are very nice. They also have a racquetball court which I enjoyed.
