Joined during an extended stay on Bainbridge Island and just love it! Staff are open, friendly and helpful, there’s tons of equipment (and enough cardio machines - yay!), and plenty of room to stretch out and do any floor work you need. It’s SUPER clean, and the vibe is friendly. Love the steam room in the locker room! A great motivator to get me in - I get to steam after. My massage the other day was also fantastic. Thanks Island Fitness!
