Everybody at the Mac is friendly and wonderful. From the management to front desk! I joined last month and I love it. I was gifted to training demos for joining and it was the best thing ever. Tiffany Fowler is one of the personal trainers and that who I was paired with for my demo. She’s knowledgeable, kind, patient and damn ( can I say that here? Lol) good at her job! Anyway, Mac is clean, gorgeous, and spacious. I dig it.

"New management" and new employees should work on their customer service skills. I have been going to the MAC over the summer months for over 10 years and loved the gym, personnel, instructors, location, just about everything about the place. This summer I have noticed a decline in the environment and an increase of fees. I think next summer I'll find another facility that appreciates having me as a client.

I have been a member at MAC harbor east for over 10 years and each they find reasons to charge my credit card an extra month when it comes to cancellation. Otherwise the gym itself is fabulous and consistent.

The salt water pool is amazing. Hundred times better than normal chlorine pools.

Its my gym and therefore I want it to be perfect but I feel like they wait too long to fix the equipment once something breaks and their steam room hardly ever works. What's worse they blame it on the members that the steamroom keeps breaking. Opening and closing the shower door does not break the steam room guys.

I go multiple times a week, the staff are friendly and willing to help in anyway they can. they have a kids club where you can put your child in for up to two hours, just make sure to call ahead (you can call the front desk and ask for the kids club). the regulars have become like family. it can be intimidating if you're just starting out, but all you need to do is ask for help and there are so many friendly faces willing to help
