Planet Fitness - St. Augustine (FL)

3 /5 Truett McGee: I’ve been frequenting this location for 9 months. Staff is cordial and atmosphere is fine. However, in the 9 months the cleanliness of the workout equipment and areas are subpar. The bathroom and black card area is ok but there are the same dustballs and hair on walls that have always been there. The equipment and mirrors look like a dog has been licking them .. always smudges on them. I see the staff walk around occasionally with a feather like duster … I’m sorry but that only moves dust around. I did take note of one cleaning the dumbbells and rack …BUT .. that’s it. I feel like even post Covid they should be cleaning equipment regularly and not expect the little wiping down that some patrons do suffice.

1 /5 Forrest Tucker: I joined Planet Fitness in 2010 just after retiring from the Navy. I’ve used Planet Fitness gyms all over the country. Until using the one in St Augustine, I had a wonderful experience. Do not use this gym! There are many self centered old people who hog the equipment. They are worse than teenagers in regards to playing on their phones while others are impatiently waiting for the equipment. I complained a number of times to the shift manager about this situation. Finally, one of them was candid enough to say the owner only cares about collecting the monthly fees and the old people can more or less do as they please. After this conversation, I immediately cancelled a 15 year membership. There are many other excellent gyms in the area. I could not be happier with Amp Gym.

5 /5 Christian Bockheim: Clean or not, I don’t really care. Machines work, weights are in one piece. There’s no point of giving it less than 5 stars because of… “a little dust” lol. Excellent variety of machines. Great lifts!

3 /5 Dani: I am not from the area, but I’m a black card member and have used gems in Southeast Florida in the northern United States over 20 years however come here on my Thanksgiving break. I went to the spa to check in for a massage chair. Couldn’t figure it out for the life of me because none of the other locations used chairs that require coins Aside from that he had started me on the Hydro massage bed and I kindly said I wanted a chair and he brought me over because I said I couldn’t find the number chair. He said they’re on the wall and brought me to a Hydro massage bed and I said that’s not a chair. I wanted a chair kept arguing with me I said Again I wanted to massage chair kept arguing with me said you’re a black card member right and I said yes however I’m not from this location and nowhere where have I went if the chairs needed coins so How was I supposed to know sitting in the chair and did not calibrated for the time to start? The man at the front desk at 10 o’clock in the morning on the day before Thanksgiving needs some gratitude in his life happy Thanksgiving.

5 /5 Jeff Pinar: The Black Card Spa at Planet Fitness is magnificent! The hydro lounger and hydro bed are important to quality of life. Just 10 minutes is similar to 40 minutes of hand massage! You can focus the massage in a specific spot or area and set the pressure to your specific needs. But, better than that the Total Body Enhancement includes Red Light Therapy and an optional Viber Shake plate that you stand on which gives you a little work out while you enhance the health of your skin, your largest organ. Wellness spas charge $50 for a 10 minute session, at Planet Fitness, it’s included with your Black Card Membership, Nationwide! I try to get a Hydro Massage and a Red Light Therapy at least 3 times a week, plus and assortment of weight training machines. Also available are standing and lie down tanning beds and several hybrid red light and tanning light units without the vibes shake feature. The also have the roller type massage chair, these aren’t my favorite, most updated Planet Fitness Club have the newer zero gravity massage chairs, these aren’t as critical to optimal health, so I still have them 5 stars, but I’d love to see this updated. All in all, the Black Card Spa is so unique and beneficial, no other clubs compare. Super clean club!
