Cabrillo Fitness Club - Aptos, California

I love having this local, community gym to go to. It is so much more personable and welcoming for someone like me than the bigger type of gyms are. I am trying to recover from multiple injuries and physical challenges, and the big, fancy gyms are too overwhelming and intimidating for someone like me. And yet, for a smaller, community gym, they still offer quite a bit as far as classes and equipment go. Plus, I love that they have a pool and steam sauna, which were two things I was looking for. And, I have interacted with many really nice people in the short amount of time I have been going here. So happy to have found Cabrillo Fitness Club!

I've been part of the gym community for a while, and people often talk about machine variety and fitness classes. We love having access to multiple Toadal locations, but we always come back to Cabrillo because it's simply the best! While Cabrillo may not have the top-of-the-line equipment in every regard the staff here make it truly special.

My only complaint, and it's probably my trademark... turn up the music!

Love this gym, have been coming here all summer and it’s a great place to work up a good sweat and feel comfortable in your own skin. The only problems I’ve ever encountered was that they close at a different time on Friday and a different time Saturday and Sunday (which is way early!) but I think the amazing staff compensates for how early they close on the weekend. Everyone is so kind and I will miss coming here (since I’m moving). Thanks Cabrillo Fitness!

Incredibly well managed. The staff is always friendly, encouraging and helpful. Great vibe, wonderful sauna/steam/hot tub. This gym makes it easier to muster the discipline to work out.

Everything is great. Mix of young n older folks. Pretty chill vibe. One thing I wish they had was a decline bench. Other thentha5, TOADAL Fitness is....the BUSINESSES!

The men who work here have no idea how to be respectful of personal space and consent; I am constantly made uncomfortable and have my visits ruined. They complain about the work environment to gym members, while failing to keep a safe space. One of the workers walked in on me changing in the locker room before closing hours, and either was fired or quit, but only after I was harassed by multiple employees and made to feel unsafe and unwelcome. And he told me that the manager named Tim had talked to him about whether or not he had seen me naked! I finally started coming again after working through anxiety from the experience, and have had my boundaries crossed again.

You can tell it's not a safe environment for women because there are no women working here. You cannot use the outer hot tub or sauna without being harassed by old men. I would not recommend this gym, especially to women. I would say they need to have some sort of sensitivity training, but it seems the problem also has to do with management not caring. I have heard from multiple older women in the locker room that the manager named Sean constantly complains about his job and that "if he had to fire everyone who made the work environment unsafe, he wouldn't have anyone left to work there." The only person who was kind and respectful left, so I assume he got tired of it as well.

The best customer service I've ever experienced at a gym. A very welcoming environment with an extensive facility to accommodate any type of workout you desire. We particularly enjoyed the lap pool & sauna. I'd be a lifetime member if I wasn't moving out of state. A huge thank you to Gabe, Tim, Shawn and the rest of the staff for the great experience.

Excellent gym in so many ways. Lots of machines and equipment, pool, sauna, basketball and racket ball court, and good selection of classes. Very clean and well kept. Great people. Always parking available. Absolutely love this gym and highly recommend!
