    Over 55 swim only, surely age discrimination? One of the lifeguards cleaning the green slime from the floor of the pool during swim time is disgusting. This has the potential to be a great facility if the people in charge had basic intelligence!

    I registred my 6 years-old son for swimming lessons with one of the instructors, Cian. He is a beginner, first time for swimming lessons, never tried by himself, but he likes to be in the water. My son was a bit nervous, as this was his first swimming day in his life. All other beginners children present there were a bit older,also they had swimming lessons before. From the beginning, when I presented my son, he barely looked to the child, didn't talked to him at all. He told me to tell to my son to " jump in the water" (my son was 1 m distance to the instructor, but he asked me to tell him) . Just like that. He, initially, tried alone, using the stairs, but nobody came to talk to him, to interact to the boy,nobody give him any instructions what to do. My son was lost. He was afraid, as he didn't know how deep the water is, and he didn't want to go. Even if I wanted to leave and wait outside, ridiculously, I had to stay there with the boy, to try to explain how to move his legs and what to do in the water, he didn't know how to hold the noodle around him, no help from the instructor. Still, there were "professionists" to teach him, not me. The instructor had the idea to throw my son directly in the water, while he didn't have anything on him to keep him up..... the instructor said, this maybe, will make him to move his legs and hands and he will realise that he can actually swim, and he will not be afraid anymore. I don't know if this is a professional practice, but me, I didn't agree, as the boy would be more traumatised. While I left for few minutes, hoping that the instructor Cian will do his best to interact with my son, I didn't see any connection student-instructor. Instead, his face expression and the attitude was that my son was the problem there. I, sincerely, didn't see any effort from this instructor, he look completely not interested, no motivated in teaching and connecting to my son, actually, he moved his hand on his own face up to down, showing that he's bored and looked like he doesn't want a hard day, just to finish his work and leave. He look very unprofessional to me. Finally, he noted my son as he didn't attend, I don't know if it was intentionally or by mistake, even if my son was in the water all the time, and tried to move his legs, helped by me (the instructor was watching from the distance, only). My daughter, also, had swimming lessons, few years ago elsewhere , but the instructor's attitude was completely different, so I am in a position to compare. Today, my son came back, first time saying he doesn't want to go back, even if before, every time he went to the pool, he was so happy. This was a very bad experience for him. I absolutely don't recommend this place, at least not for swimming lessons, if you have young children. Next day we went to Club Vitae, his first day here, too. I had to fight with my son to give to the new teacher a second chance and try again. He was so frightened about everything, even before to get there. I want to say that the lady there, Natalia, was an angel and my son was in the water in the first 10 minutes. The conclusion is: TRY ANOTHER PLEASE, BUT NOT TALLAGHT LEISURE. The instructors are really bad, at least Cian. I'm really disappointed, as I leave in the area.

    Pool is filthy. We had to jump out. Told manager he said pool is spotless I clean it myself. Rude and unprofessional. Gym is nice and spotless but we won't be returning (they closed the showers for 2 years during covid so everyone got straight in the pool with out rinsing you could see the dirt floating 🤢)

    Facility fine, roof in places need to be filled in and closed up. Showers are OK. Nice little steam and sauna. People with young children come over from the child /adult area into the lanes where people are constantly swimming in the lane, bit annoying as they just bop their kids up down 🤷‍♀️

    I called today for some information regarding the social inclusion swim for my son, and I’m so glad I did. I spoke to a lovely lady called Lauren who advised and talked me through all my options. She was so helpful and reassuring. Kindness costs nothing and she put me at ease with all my concerns. Lauren is an asset to your team.

    I spent months calling up and eventually got my daughter into the little fins swimming lessons. The lessons have no structure at all. Too many kids and different instructors each week, so no consistency. Would not recommend for beginner swimming. I've just stopped going and looking elsewhere.Very disappointed.

    5 Star, Best Pool and staff by a mile. Clean, tidy, child friendly, extremely nice people working in reception, same stands for hygiene staff, lifeguards and security. Kids absolutely love going there. Can't speak for the gym as I never used it there. Would highly recommend it!

    Not a bad spot pool not the biggest but it sectioned of with 3 /4 lanes for swimming. Then a reasonable size ate for lessons and a big area were they have an inflatable for the kids for partys in the water. food are ok not a great selection bit enough to get something till you find something decent

    The gym instructors here are brilliant, theyre so helpful, constantly giving advice and encouragement, i really enjoy the classes, the clientele are all lovely and supportive to each other. The only negative i have is that they have reduced the boxing classes, i really enjoyed that, now i can only make the sunday one, the gym section needs new updated equipment , i would love to see boxing bags put it in, theyre not expensive, and everyone would use them solo or as part of a class :) who have I to email to get onto this?

    The swimming pool was ok, the water was a bit cold and it was noisy, because there was a school children swimming class at the same time, but we had a great time in a steam room and sauna. Good size locker and changing spot too.

  • 5/5 Gideon C. 9 months ago on Google
    Great place with great Facilities. The kids camp was fantastic my kids loved it. The swimming lessons are also brilliant with a well thought out payment and progression portal wich notify you when it's nearing the last few sessions. We had had our kids in another sports centre off south lotts road d4 and they just cannot be compared At all tallaght leisure centre 100% recommended.

    Just around the corner and great day out for the family but would say don't go on the last hour of the day on the weekend as staff pressure you to shower and get dressed quickly but overall great place to go👍

  • 5/5 Rita M. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent classes and pool. Only one complaint, Please put some lights at the carpark. Very dark at the side of the building at night

  • 3/5 Alex C. 1 year ago on Google
    Good size pitches. But slippy, astro runners or blades, you still end up on the deck at least 1 time. Obviously, only when it's wet, but could do with more grip. Other than that, it's nice, if you feel cold there is always a car a blaze close by to warm yourself up.

    Wouldnt recommend. I have had my kids attend swimming lessons for over 5 years and through Covid. All they care about is making money and not advancing kids through the classes as they are over subscribed. My son was in the same level for over 3 years. If the instructors were any use no student should take over 100 lessons to progress.

😠 I was very disappointed with the energy fitness, I stop going in july 2022, I paid 49.99 because I close the membership . There was a return plan last week, 2 days ago they had a problem activating my account. On the third day, a nice worker at the gym said that I didn't pay €49.99 in July when I...
