Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre

Honestly love taking my kid here to swim but the old guy today who was watching the family swim def made it un fun for a lot of people. Told a 5 foot young boy who was swimming in 3 feet of water holding a floaty that his mom had to be close to him. Told my nephew to take a swim test to play in the kiddie pool (he is a great swimmer) told my step son to wear a life jacket without even doing the “swim test”… went around telling parents to watch their kids or stay closer to their kids as if they weren’t doing that already … you do realize people come to have fun eh? Didn’t even give him a chance to say anything more negative to me .. just interrupted him and said “yep I get it we are fine here , thanks” I’d say retire you miserable old man.

My wife and I lane swim here twice weekly. The pool is the best in the area. It's clean, the staff are friendly, and the online reservation system is easy to use. Prices are very affordable. We also have used the family swim program. This is a well used facility with the arenas, gym, pool, indoor track and other rooms. Often, the Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre will host trade shows which are well run and well attended. I cannot say enough good things about the Centre. We are lucky to have such a superior facility in our area!

I thought it's a family friendly place but there's something so unfriendly about being in the pool with parents and their children and having men sitting in the corner just watching everyone. Referring to a family/public swim time in the therapy pool. During our hour visit there were 3 seperate men sitting in corners, not swimming but just leaning against the wall for the duration of the swim time. Just staring at children.

Staff is very nice and always here to help you and nothing wrong with them at all. But the changing room for women and the showers are extremely disgusting which is not hygienic at all when so many people are using the pool and many times they were exactly the same as dirty than the day before, which means that in two days they hadn't been cleaned... I hope they'll do something to change the situation..

This is just your typical arena. However, the bathrooms are absolutely disgusting. One of the bathrooms had a toilet paper roll on the floor and one sitting on the back of the toilet! I can only imagine how much bacteria they had on them and left there for people to use. I'm sure young girl how don't know better did use them.
