I’ve had an amazing experience at Lifetime Fitness in Laguna Niguel! The facility is truly top-notch, with everything from well-maintained equipment to beautiful pool areas and spacious workout rooms. It’s clear they prioritize a clean, welcoming, and motivating environment. What really sets this location apart, though, is the Concierge team. They go above and beyond to make sure every member feels supported and valued. The team handled our recent membership changes with such care and efficiency, even waiving the standard cancellation notice for us and processing everything seamlessly. I felt genuinely taken care of, which speaks volumes about their commitment to customer satisfaction. Thank you, Lifetime Laguna Niguel, for creating a place that combines excellent facilities with exceptional customer service. I highly recommend this location to anyone looking for a gym that feels like a community!

They have an amazing supervisor there named Olivia who is such an asset to their organization. She is the reason I got the membership for their child care services (which are also fantastic) and why I'll be signing up with them again in the future. She always follows up with any concerns and has answered all questions and concerns I've had with the utmost professionalism. The club is great, but her attention makes it really stand out. Thank you for all that you do!

I am extremely disappointed with the quality of service at Lifetime Laguna Niguel. The management is abysmal, showing little to no regard for member satisfaction. The sales team operates with deceptive practices, making false promises to attract new members. For instance, they assured me of a specific price point with access to multiple Lifetime locations, only to reverse that policy a month later. As a result, members are left with less than what was originally promised, creating a bait-and-switch experience. The pressure to sign up for personal training is another glaring issue. The sales team’s aggressive tactics often border on harassment, making the enrollment process uncomfortable and unprofessional. My experience with the LifeSpa further underscored the lack of customer care. The manager was unreasonably rude and dismissive, showing no willingness to accommodate or address unforeseen circumstances. It’s clear that Lifetime prioritizes enforcing its rigid, profit-driven policies over supporting its members’ needs. That said, the Operations team is a bright spot in an otherwise poorly managed club. They do an excellent job maintaining cleanliness and creating a positive atmosphere for members. It’s disheartening that Lifetime undervalues such dedicated employees by paying them the least compared to other departments. Overall, Lifetime Laguna Niguel seems to prioritize profits over people, leaving loyal members to feel undervalued and misled. I cannot recommend this location until significant improvements are made in their management and policies.

The place to be! My experience is when approaching this magnificent building and park my car at this beautiful parking structure then approaching to the lobby and seeing all these professional beautiful people then walking to the lobby and amazing smell of the space and the beautiful receptions I already feel I got my money’s worth. Not to mention the great changing room, shower, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, swimming pool, all the amenities, and then I go upstairs using all these high tech equipment, pleasant space to workout and seeing all these good looking people around as well as great classes including hot yoga, it just makes LifeTime the place to be!

Gym is amazing and clean, but the staff is very unfriendly, especially the ones who work the front when they check you in..no one ever greets you with a smile and genuinely try to act nice. It feels like your bothering them to check in or seems very robotic and not very member enagaing. Membership is not cheap the least we ask if if the staff can be friendly and the facility can be clean..this location does one of those things very well..the other not so much.

Planet fitness gym in Laguna Niguel has a ton of parking which is a great feature because other gyms around the area like 24 hour fitness is always packed. The gym has a variety of machines and free weight dumbbells. This location also has a second floor, which is dedicated to cardio equipment like treadmills etc. Similar to other locations, the staff is very friendly and the facility is always clean. Even during the busiest times, I don’t find that I have to wait to workout or share machines. The tanning is also kept very clean if you choose to do that. For the price is really good. The only suggested change would be if the gym’s hours could be extended later or even be 24 hours.

I have been training for over 5 years, I have been in many gyms and the most important thing for me is the cleanliness of the gym and the training machines. I currently have a one-year membership at 24 Hours Fitness but unfortunately it is very dirty and that is why I decided to look for another gym and now I have been training here for three weeks and the morning staff is super friendly, the day before I had the opportunity to speak with the manager to congratulate him for the great work that he and his team are doing.... Thank you very much Tylor for your time and work. ✅

I can always get the machine I want at this Gym... way less crowded than other major chains... defecting from 24 hour. The machines here also are very interesting as they mostly do not have a solid bar between left and right hands. IE if you push only with the left hand only that side goes, meaning the little helper and balance muscles get involved to make both hands push evenly. Due to that I really had to step down in my weight I'm pushing and get used to these machines... which I love. They are closer to free weights than the machines where you could push on one side and the other side would go up as well. Does that make sense? I used to do only free weights but now that I've turned 65 I prefer machines.

This location is clean and calm. The members are lowkey and focused on their own workouts. I never have to wait for cardio equipment. The 30-minute classes are great. The trainer teaches at your level with just a bit of push and lots of encouragement. My favorite pieces of equipment are the battle ropes and hand over hand rope pull. If you have the fancy membership, you can finish with a chair massage. RECOMMEND

I go to the location in Laguna Niguel at 5am on select weekdays. Been going for about a year now so I have a feel for the facility and usual people. Overall it’s a great place, although it has its limitations depending on your needs. PROs — Meticulously clean at all times, great staff, very modern facilities and equipment, very cheap ($10/month), not a ton of people regardless of the time of day. CONs — Wish it opened earlier than 5am, amenities are limited, “black club” features are lackluster, no barbell-style equipment, weights don’t get very high versus other gyms. Overall it’s great for beginners, older folks, and those wanting a little of everything. Not really recommended for competitive fitness training or those looking for advanced-asset facilities (tires, bars, etc). Would be better if it had a sauna or steam room, opened earlier and closed later, and maybe the “black list” benefits were more than tanning and massage chairs. But as said before it’s only $10/month and much cleaner and more modern than most places, so hard to argue. Definitely recommend it if you are close to one. I’ve been a gym rat for almost 25 years.

LeftCoast is one of my favorite places to be! Everyone is welcome, encouraging, and friendly. I always leave with such a big smile on my face. A lot of CrossFit gyms are super competitive and intimidating. This box is definitely different in that each person is competing against their former selves, not each other. The form and technique is really important here which helps in avoiding injuries and getting the best workout possible. The coffee shop in the gym is pretty great too 😉.

By far my favorite gym I have ever been to. I had never tried Crossfit before and head coach Connor was incredible at teaching me and informing me on proper technique for the movements used in class. The gym is very welcoming and the sauna and cold plunge amenities outside are incredible. The classes are very well taught by every coach and the programming for the workouts is outstanding. There is a strong sense of community at this gym and the owner, coach Gizzi, is super nice and does a great job at creating this fun and supportive community. To anyone looking to try out Crossfit, drop in or change up their gym, I highly recommend joining Left Coast.

One of the best CrossFits I’ve ever visited. Pain-free check in/service, attentive coaches, all the equipment you’ll need (including a glute bridge machine, Jacob’s Ladder) and fun people. LOVE THE SAUNA AND ICE PLUNGE. Can’t wait to drop in again.

I was traveling for business and dropped in for a few classes. I love doing drop ins when I travel, because I get to see other gyms. Left Coast Crossfit is awesome. Very friendly and helpful coaching staff helped sign me up and get me ready for the workout. The programming was good and the facility was amazing. All the equipment and accessory work anyone would need. 10 out of 10 will come back whenever I travel here.

Best Gym I have EVER been too! And I've been to and worked at a LOT. Couldn't ask for better owners they do such an amazing job with setting the tone of the gym and taking care of the community. I get lost pretty easily but I've never felt lost here. Everyone is so engaged and engaging. The coaches are awesome and so easy to talk to. They are paying attention and they care, They take their teaching skills and craft seriously. All of this trickles down to the members (community) "It starts from the top!" Couldn't have asked for a better introduction coming into my new life post xplant, hands down.

I absolutely LOVE Burn Boot Camp. I first heard about Burn while living in Utah but when I moved to California the closest location was in Costa Mesa and I couldn’t make that drive everyday. I was bummed because the couple of workouts I had done previously were great and I loved the community and trainers. Fast forward to April of this year (2024) and come to find out that Burn is coming closer to Laguna Niguel! I signed up so fast—even before going to any of the pop up camps! Cristina and Madison created such a gorgeous location and they have hired such amazing trainers, child-watch, and front desk staff. I feel welcomed, I feel as if everyone who comes is genuinely cheering me on in my personal fitness journey, and I truly feel like the trainers are my friends. Jacquie, Brittney, Brooke, Torra, & Madison (and any future trainers they hire) are the real deal. They will push you to be the best you can be. They will cheer you on, lift you up, and help you reach your goals (and kick your butt!). I have been to many gyms and fitness centers in the area and I can’t say enough good things about Burn Boot Camp. I wish everyone could take even one camp just to see how inclusive and supportive the atmosphere is. I was worried that I wasn’t fit enough/strong enough/small enough to fit in here but that is not at all the case—every fitness level is welcomed and will experience a great workout. To top off the amazing community they have CHILD-WATCH! Seriously. For real life. I can go get my 45 min work out in and bring my kids. The staff they have hired take such good care of the kids and my kids enjoy going. It is so nice because they are right there—I can see them and they can see me and I know they’re safe. If you are looking for a gym—look no further! Come try it out and see for yourself how wonderful this place is!

I've been to about every type of gym and group workout and I've never experienced such a sense of community and individual care from staff. The staff all knows you by name and they are so helpful and understanding. The fact that this gym has complimentary child care really sealed the deal for me. They just GET IT. Love being apart of place that celebrates and encourages people exactly where they are with zero judgment!

I have had my fair share of gym membership experiences, nothing comes close to Burn Boot Camp and the way they make you feel seen and included with the community. I am a big helicopter parent and the fact that I can see my daughter in the child care area was a huge relief for me as a first time mom. Everyone at Laguna Niguel Burn is absolutely phenomenal if I can give 10 stars I would!

I love Burn and my kids never want to leave childwatch! Jacqueline is an incredible trainer and is super encouraging. It feels like you’re all working together and I high five no less than 10 people per class. Burn is a true community. It’s worth every penny and more.

BURN is an AMAZING community! My life was always focused around sports and fitness and after having my two littles, I struggled to find the motivation to stay consistent with working out and also struggled with low back and hip pain. I found BURN and took a chance and haven't looked back. I'm stronger and lifting more than I ever have and I turned 41 this year and my back and hip pain have dramatically decreased as my body has gotten stronger. The owners and head trainer are exceptional and make you feel like FAMILY! Th best part is that my kids get to be apart of my journey and I know they are in the best hands with their INCREDIBLE childcare. Thank you to BURN for bringing back my FIRE for fitness.
