Ararat Fitness & Leisure Centre

Great potential but equipment is old, worn and and rusty. Dumbells have sticky tape peeling off the handles making it distracting to push the limits.Usually quiet though and staff are pretty good.

Well presented, clean facility and great staff very helpful .Parking at the front. Short walk sometimes required.No crowds and designated areas for different activities.Great work being done to teach toddlers water safety.

Dropped in for an early morning swim on way through from Adelaide to Melbourne and was blown away. Situated in a beautiful, rustic setting (think Melbourne city baths but cleaner) the pool is quite shallow(so feels really fast), super clean and water temp was perfection. Punched out 2km and had a quick stretch in the sauna (beautifully hot) and was showered and shaved and back on the road within the hour. What a diamond this health centre is. Can’t recommend it highly enough. Well done Ararat, I’ll be back Sunday morning on my way back to Adelaide. Cheers Seany G

Little out of date but this facility has something for most people. Sports, Gym, Swimming, Spa and Sauna. Lots of fitness and well-being leisure. Friendly staff.

No supervision of kids. Kids misbehaving inside and outside of premises. Kids ran out in front of me whilst i was driving and i neatly killed the kids and myself. Called police who attended and spoke with students involved. Management of this business said he cant do anything as its not his responsibility. Disgusting

Wonderful pump instructors, they make the classes so fun, lovely big area for the class. Reception staff always polite & friendly. Worth driving the 50km for the class

This a great venue just for lunch/dinner. Good portions at reasonable prices.I had the Parma and was happy with it.Everyone from the bar staff to the patrons are very friendly and pleasant.

All nice what you would expect from a country leisure centre while they should head the kidspool a bit more

Went there this afternoon with my sister and her children and was absolutely horrified. At one point there were probably 35 children (of all ages, including kids under 5) swimming in the free play section of the pool, and the lifeguard was sitting down, body turned away from that part of the pool, in deep conversation with two of her friends, absolutely not paying attention to anyone in the water.The water was cloudy and stung my eyes after only minute or two without goggles, which is not ideal when you're trying to teach your kids to swim.There will be a fatal drowning in this pool if the lifeguards don't start actively doing their job. What an absolute disgrace.
