Wonderful facility. Always clean. Numerous pieces of equipment, many classes with fabulous instructors.

Great hours and equipment. Pool is great, although crowded in summer. I wish the outdoor pool had other lap swim hours as well.

The weight facility is excellent, clean and the staff are friendly and helpful.

I have only one negative observation. Many people occupy machines for far longer than
necessary and most of that time is used by spending time on their cell phones. Gym
etiquette is totally absent and I've never witnessed machine sharing. It's frustrating when
I spend far more time waiting for a machine than I spend working out.

The facility is very clean and spacious. There are ample exercise machines as well as plenty of space for free weights and stretching as well as TRX. There are many fitness classes offered every day. The pool usually has at least several lanes open for lap swimming throughout the day. The gym is open to pickleball at various times during the week. The Ladies locker room is kept clean and the showers are very great. Daria's cafe is awesome! So many healthy choices!

I am very happy with the pool classes offered throughout the week and other classes offered

All the workers are great.

Great place

It is a fantastic facility-- I'm there every day!

Love the wide variety of classes available, however would like to see a few more geared to older adults who have a harder time getting up and down from the floor.
We can often do the exercises, if they would only be cognizant to do all the floor exercises at the same time instead of getting up and down multiple times during a class.

I love my Y!
It is very welcoming space for all ages.
I see only happy faces when I am there.

Handy, clean

People friendly, gym good, pool good

My kids really enjoyed their summer on Children’s Island!

The staff are amazing with the kids, and everyday my kids come home having had a fun and challenging day. Going to CIDC is the highlight of their summer.

Great community, clean space, great variety of machines/classes

The instructor’s are amazing… they all go above and beyond. Rosemary is hilarious she really brings the energy, Abby is so versatile she seemed to fill in so many diff classes all summers. Kristen I took a class last week for the. First time with , she made a point after and before class to introduce herself and to see how I did. Lastly Heather she makes you feel like your in a private session , the attention she gives to all her participants is remarkable.. a friend of mine recently came back to the Y & seeks out classes that Heather teaches only!!

The people are great.. Keith & John. Instructors are excellent.

Just wish all the equipment was fixed properly. Signs. Have bee n up for awhile.

Small pool is good especially when it opens on time.

Love the Y in Marblehead!
Excellent facilities / excellent staff.

Very professional and personable staff in all sectors!

Children’s Island is an amazing experience- my 3 kids all loved it- the counselors are incredible too!

Helpful and well trained staff!

Many offerings in classes, equipment, services. Great professional staff, and clean facilities.

It’s a multi function facility serving the community with a wide range of health and fitness areas. The spaces are clean and the staff is friendly.

Really enjoyed my first visit and looking forward to returning with my family. My only concern was a lifeguard on duty appeared to be repeatedly looking at his phone. I can’t say for sure if that’s what was happening, but it appeared that way from where I was in the pool.

Camp on an island is a very unique and amazing opportunity. My kids like the counselors, the activities and always come home happy and full of stories!

I'm returning after a long post-Covid suspension. So far everyone (Patrick, Chad, Jeff, Keith) has been top-level helpful and friendly in helping me re-up as a member. Looking forward to getting back in the swing. Motivated by the welcoming atmosphere.

The best ymca around (trust me we have been to others lol)

The Early Learning Center is amazing! The quality of the facility is excellent - including the only squash facility on the North Shore! And the staff are wonderful and welcoming.

This is everything a summer camp program SHOULD be! Creative time outdoors, rain or shine. Great activities, responsible and responsive staff, plenty of information ahead of time, well-organized and planned. We will definitely be back next summer!

Love there are plenty of staff and coaches. Love that every friday there is a show for us parent to see what the kids been doing. All staff were very friendly and always welcomes the kids and parents.
