Join us at the Boat House Gym and we'll make sure you head home feeling on top of the world! IMPORTANT NOTES You MUST bring a towel with you to place on any equipment that you sit or lay on.
Yoga combines simple meditation, breath control and specific bodily postures to improve overall health & relaxation. Ideal for all levels. Simple unchoreographed body weight exercises at 20 second intervals that suit any fitness level. A great way to start the day off. This is a 30 min block of both high and low impact exercises which then moves on to 30 minutes of step.

The place is amazing! Run by interested and engaging staff members who tailor made a routine for me. The equipment is new, building well ventilated for fantastic fresh air flow, plenty of room and a variety of classes, weights and specific strengthening equipment. Rules are covid friendly and I fell safe in the locked tag-entry doors. Prices are obvious and I found there were no hidden costs upon joining. These people take our fitness seriously and I really enjoy going there.
Negatives: Parking is a little limited, but that's the only negative I have found.

Great gym. Clean, modern, well maintained equipment. Good classes. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Not the cheapest, but still well priced, with good packages avaliable.

I joined this Gym a year ago after 20 years of no gym memberships. I was so excited. I loved the feel of the place I loved the community environment and I loved that Rosa makes you feel like a friend not just another member. 1 month later we went into lockdown. Then we came out of lockdown we were told we had to move out of our home. After 10 years… of being there and finally finding my gym I wasn’t happy. I was hoping to stay in the area but unfortunately not to be. So unfortunately I have a gym membership I now can’t make use of. But don’t worry. I’LL BE BACK❤

Could not rate this gym highly enough. Rosa has created a place where the vibe is so relaxed and friendly. My husband and I visit the gym, when we come to the caravan park, every year. Compared to the big corporate gyms, there is no contest. The array of equipment is first class and the gym is always spotless. It is such a pleasure to do a workout there. My husband is so not “ a gym person”, but happily attended The Boathouse with me whilst on holiday. Keep up the good work Rosa, we’ll be back next year.

Definitely 5-star regarding facilities & equipment, location & price.
However the maintenance of equipment, incl upholestry & cables was expected to be higher.
Service level of Management/staff met expectations.
If this is not a issue to you, the reader, then you will thoroughly enjoy the experience of The Boat House Gym.
And yes I will be returning in the future.

This is the Peninsula's best gym by far and it is also the most affordable! The equipment is state of the art, the atmosphere is so relaxed and the people are lovely. Definitely recommend the classes, the PT sessions and the Weight Loss Challenge.
