Very happy. Large outdoor heated pool and you can easily check lane availability. Interesting play area for kids. Two good indoor pools rather than one. Great kids slide. A large spa and hot pool section.

The open approach to using the facilities is a breath of fresh air. There's a sense of freedom & inclusivity that extends throughout the environment. Whether you're a seasoned swimmer, a casual lounger, or a family with kids, there's something for everyone.

I do have to tip my hat to the team at Darebin. The pool is a fantastic facility and we are lucky as residents to have access to it. It’s wonderful to have an integrated facility with workout studios, saunas, steam room, a cafe and even a physio on site.

The gym is huge with enough luscious space to create a comfortable environment with enough machines routines and workouts for everybody. The staff are really friendly and something I've noticed is it always smells nice.
