I enjoy Nick Denker the GM there a lot. He's very Professional and Experienced in the world of workouts and training.
Derek at the front desk on weekends is a very good guy. Known him for over 11 years..
I usually work out at St. Johns Bluff but occasionally go to Beaches location due to schedule. I like the crowd, feel pretty safe and the music choice. The facility itself is a 7 out of 10 for me. While the equipment, etc. seems to be in good repair and is laid out well, the ladies bathroom could use a deep cleaning. It's not terrible but the trash cans are usually overflowing meaning they weren't cleaned the day/night before. The showers often have wads of hair on the floor. The sinks are slow to drain. Some of these things are on the members to be a little more considerate. I still keep my overall score at a 10 though and enjoy the overall experience.
Bailey's @ Jax Beach is clean, convenient, reasonably priced, has a friendly staff & plenty of equipment, and it's been a fixture at the beach for over 25 years.
I love the gyms. The beach location needs to be updated, but it is still a great gym. Love the 24/7 access as I prefer to not workout in a large crowd and so having 24/7 access allows me to go in when I know it will be slower. The staff is always really helpful and friendly. I feel really comfortable in the gyms and that is hard to accomplish for women - Baileys has this down though. Really just wish the women's locker room in the beach location was updated - its so outdated.
