After taking an Uber to get there, and the employee quoted me the $27 price I saw a sign on the window that the sauna and the steam were both out of order. I asked him what about the Jacuzzi, because somewhere I read online there was a Jacuzzi and he said that Jacuzzi hasn't been here for years. I asked him for a discount because some of the things were not working and he said we don't do discounts. I asked him to call the owner and ask about a discount for me and he. I told him I spent money to come here and I had the option of going here or the other place and I chose here. He says well lots of people spend money to come here ...I work here and I have to spend money to come here. He said if you're going to have that kind of attitude maybe you shouldn't come in. Well reluctantly, I paid because it would have been over $20 to get to the other location, The Gaythering. There was a spattering of people there and I made the best of it. I will say as it started to get dark there are several exterior steps that are not highly visible if you're not familiar with the location and so as darkness crept in (I had gotten there in the afternoon) I left. I hope when I visit Miami again I remember not to go...
Read moreThis club would get five stars if it had not failed in two major areas. My basis for comparison is my own experience and that of my boyfriend at Ybor Resort and Spa, which is a facility of the same nature. The hot tub while very pretty is tiny and circular, so eye contact with the people around you is inevitable. Further, the size of the facility and extensive pathways you can traverse disperses the population so much that regular socializing is made difficult. A minor complaint but still notable is that the deck area varies in height while lighting is poor. Near-tripping and toe-stubbing was frequent until I learned the layout.
It should not be overlooked, however, that its membership dues, locker, and room rates are very affordable and competitive. Just as well, the entire facility is kept very clean and janitorial staff is on-duty constantly.
My suggestions are to expand the hot tub, minimize the depth of the maze layout, and provide some kind of lighting when the deck height changes to...
Read moreThis place needs serious attention! The rooms are falling apart, mirrors hanging , broken light fixtures, stained sheets and towels. The pool stinks, steam room and sauna closed , there’s no jacuzzi , mold everywhere. The showers handle are broken so are the soap dispenser or better say watering soap dispenser (so make sure to have your own soap). Outside you might run in to rats, and the play are outside stinks urine. The staff is very rude and abusive so is the manager who is always yelling at the staff and customers. Make sure to don’t bring valuables such as watches, jewelry or cash they will get in to your room and steal from you. I truly can’t believe any of the good reviews I have read, or they are not real or whoever wrote them have really low standards which I respect. Aqua is a very decadent place and dangerous. Hopefully that place will be closed down soon! For the sake of people who wish to have a good time e there and the neighbors that deserve a much better...
