All these positive reviews. I really wish I could see it. I find the culture at Quest to be... ok. It feels like it's been declining and nobody at the gym really seems to care. There is a growing contingent of gym-goers who don't do their part to maintain a safe and welcoming space. They will crowd around equipment, drop weights unnecessarily, leave messes for others to clean up, act crass and immature, and generally disrespect the space. I've been observing speeding in the parking lot. Other gym-goers have told me recently they almost got hit by speeders in the parking lot. Totally unacceptable! Or at least, it should be, but it doesn't feel like Quest cares, since this all goes on under the staff's watchful eye.
Putting all that aside, the weight section is waaaay too small, so it gets crazy crowded every evening. There's one squat rack, so good luck on leg day getting in there between everyone doing bicep curls or whatever.
100% the only reason I continue to pay them 80 dollars a month for this experience is because there's no competition in this town. There is a lot of room for improvement here.
On the upside, the equipment they have is well maintained. But that is the bare minimum to offering a good...
Read moreQUEST is one of the best things that ever happened to Kennebunk! I rave about the facility and all the staff every chance. It never ceases to amaze me that we could be so fortunate to have such a high-level facility and such outstanding staff as we do.
I think the thing that stands out - which I frequently hear from others (including my 94 yr. old mother-in-law) - is that Quest embraces all fitness types, and ALL AGES and is super-welcoming to us aging baby boomers. Us boomers have definitely contributed to "fitness as a lifestyle" and making a mainstream part of a quality life and so to see SO MANY boomers in there still "getting after it" is, of course, very positive!
This is not to overlook that it is also inspiring having a lot of young (younger) folks in there as well. You guys have solidified a niche and identity that is all your own. Keep cultivating that magic - you are all awesome!
Take a bow and HAPPY...
Read moreQuest is the most comfortable gym environment I've ever been to. Quest is: inviting, accommodating, clean, professional, fun, invigorating, inspiring and quite frankly the most supportive and best facility in Southern Maine. If you're looking to move your body and feel better inside and out I would highly recommend getting a tour and seeing what Quest is all about. It will change your life for the better. Any class you can take with Hayley will inspire you to be the best version on yourself. Her smile and grace will turn a light on inside you and warm you from the inside out. By the end of the class you will be smiling...
