Takapuna Pool and Leisure Centre

Very awkward if you’re not a swimmer and just spectating. Not a lot of seating and lifeguards ask what you’re up too.. makes you feel a little bit awkward and unwanted. Maybe if you’re spending a day with friends or family and NOT swimming go to a pool like Parnell where there is seating and you can relax with your phone or a book and not feel like people think you’re a creep.nFront reception staff super super nice tho, very friendly and had no issue letting me go in despite not swimming. I hope I don’t sound like a Karen

Love swimming here as the staff including life-guards are always friendly, approachable, and extremely helpful - even lending me a pair of goggles one time when I forgot mine. They have extractor fans running which is good for ventilation. Big thumbs up from me.

Great neighbourhood pool. We go 4-5 times a week for Aquafit. The pool is big and clean. The Instructors are all great and the pool staff are always friendly and welcoming. Grateful to have this local resource! The only negative is that there is seriously not enough ventilation in that main pool area. They really need to crack open some windows and get some MORE FRESH AIR in! Please and thanks.

Aqua fit fits classes at 10:30 are great exercise and fun.

Have a year membership that can hardly be used because of “staff shortages”. Each week and some times multiple occasions you receive messages via email or Facebook stating the pools will be closed due to staff shortages. This has been going on for month and months. It’s extremely unfair to people who pay weekly, monthly or in my case yearly to not get full use of the pool. There are constant heating issues and other problems with the facility. They give the option to go glenfield when closed, but how is this fair or just? Fire the management and get enough staff to honour the hours you state you are open.
