Member Testimonials
Friendly staff, clean facilities, nice pool area!
Friendliest child watch staff amongst the three gyms that I frequent. They alone are worth the longer drive.
love the aqua aerobics program (the teachers) and the friendly helpful front desk folks !
Friendly attitudes and able to work with my children. They actually get my children to listen to instructions
The Kailua YMCA is an excellent place to exercise, it offers a great variety of options for everyone. I personally always feel welcome when I arrive, the staff is friendly, the instructors are all very qualified and the participants make us feel comfortable. All in all, it’s a wonderful facility.
The exercise classes are great and the staff is super supportive and friendly.
I enjoy classes, such as chair piyo and yoga, and sliver fit. I get to meet new people, exercise at the gym, and do yoga.
My child loves going to the YMCA Summer Camp!
Very inclusive, lots of great programs for kids and families. Highly recommend if you have a family.
Online class was great!

Staff is very helpful and friendly. Like using the pool.
I was an avid runner all my life....then I got sciatica that wouldn't go away without spinal injections....neuropathy ended up in my feet....I had difficulty walking more than a 100 yards....YMCA has a pool....I'm able to exercise moving my legs....thanks YMCA!!! and I'm able to do some bench presses with the 45 pound bar....I'm not a total weakling so I add 5 pounds using the21/2 pound weights.......and 15 lb weights for my arms ....we are lucky in Kailua to have the YMCA....and there is hot water after showering....cool...

5. Windward YMCA is a SAFE place to exercise because the Staff & Members take care of one another.
The classes and instructors are great! This alone is worth the cost of membership.
Childwatch is amazing but expanded hours would be appreciated. It seems to be always booked! Opening a little more space when it is crowded for family swim would be nice (maybe another lane?). Finally, is it possible to create a dedicated stretching/workout space. It is difficult to do mat work when there are classes happening in both areas and you only have childwatch for a certain amount of time! Mahalo nui.
The staff are so friendly, the facilities are so clean, and the classes are great!
I enjoyZumba and Senior Fit classes at the Y. Enjoy Dee’s class. Who knew he could give a good class instead of cleaning the gym.
Staff and members are so friendly; non-intimidating and mellow vibe kind of gym. And the best Zumba instructor Kaipo is there, that's why I joined!
The staff are very congenical and the facility itself has a very comfortable feel. There is a good variety of fitness equipment ranging from free weights to machines to pool.The crowd also is (mostly) free of the narcissist/body nazi crowd that tends to haunt the big box gyms. The main minor drawback to be aware of is that parking can be at an extreme premium at certain times like when the more popular classes are on and parking in the neighborhood outside the facility is occasionally necessary.
Love the staff, amenities and location!

Wonderful pool! Great staffing! I appreciate being able to stay in the pool for as long as I want.
