About

Club Westside, located at 1200 Wilcrest Dr, Houston, TX, is a premier private athletic and social club offering a comprehensive range of amenities. It features a state-of-the-art fitness center, extensive indoor and outdoor tennis courts, multiple swimming pools, group exercise classes, and various family-friendly programs, providing a vibrant community for its members.

Specific, publicly available information regarding the exact temperatures of Club Westside's pools is not readily available. However, the club typically maintains heated indoor and/or lap pools for year-round comfort, with outdoor pools often heated seasonally.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? Westside is widely praised as a comprehensive and highly-regarded facility, often described as a 'second home' by long-term members who appreciate its role in their family's life, from childcare services to competitive sports training. The club offers a vast array of amenities, including extensive tennis and pickleball courts, a well-equipped gym, diverse group classes (with specific instructors like Eva and Katy receiving commendation), and multiple pools. It is lauded for its exceptional community atmosphere, inclusive events, and family-friendly environment, featuring kid-specific sports zones, arcade games, mini-golf, and bowling. Unique features include animal encounters (giraffes, flamingos, monkeys) visible from areas like the upstairs restaurant, and strong front-desk hospitality. Many find it a place for belonging, fitness, and making lifelong friends, with some guests considering membership after positive experiences. However, several areas for improvement were noted. Suggestions include adding heavier weights for popular classes like Body Pump, providing a 'caretaker' option in membership for members with disabilities (beyond a nanny option for younger children), and clearly posting animal feeding times. Critical feedback highlighted outdated, aged, and unpreserved equipment, particularly in the tennis ball machine area, which was also described as needing more frequent cleaning and having deflated balls. One guest also expressed dissatisfaction with an attendant rushing a party host during an already limited time slot.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Westside is truly our second home! I’ve been coming to Westside for over 18 years, and it has been such a meaningful part of my family’s life. I was honored to serve as captain of two tennis teams here, and during those years, the childcare service was a lifesaver, allowing me to train, play, and take care of myself while knowing my son was in good hands. Now that my son is 23, I can proudly say he learned to play competitive tennis at Westside, and to this day, he still comes every single day. This place shaped him it’s his second home too. Though I don’t play tennis anymore, I continue to enjoy the gym and several amazing group classes. My absolute favorite is Body Pump with Eva, she brings incredible energy and inspiration. I do wish they added more weights, as the class has grown in strength and intensity, heavier options would really take it to the next level! I also love Katy’s Saturday dance class, it’s the highlight of my weekend and Monday’s ABsolution and Stretch classes are the perfect way to start the week. The atmosphere here is exceptional. The events are on another level, fun, inclusive, and full of community spirit. I’ve made lifelong friends and unforgettable memories. If you’re new to Houston or simply looking for a place to feel good, get fit, and belong, I wholeheartedly recommend Westside. Joining was one of the best decisions my family made after moving here. Thank you to the entire Westside team for all that you do! 💪🎾❤️

I attend as a guest. It Is A Very Spacious Club With A Lot Of Amenities. There is definitely a lot to do in just one day. It is very family-oriented and kid friendly. I love that they have attendants walking around to assistant you with any extra luggage’s up and down the stairs. There are plenty of tennis and pickle ball courts. The pool is a decent size. I did not like that the attendant kept rushing the host during the party knowing they only get 45 minutes already. I am thinking about joining as a member. It is in the bus route so members from Houston can visit and subscribe.

Best experience ever! I didn’t know what to expect but I was blown away by the front desk hospitality. They offer an incredible amount of amenities, animal feedings, pools, classes, sport zones for kids, family zone with arcade games, mini golf, bowling. We arrived yesterday at 6am and didn’t leave till close to 8pm. The restaurant upstairs over looks the beautiful Giraffes and offers a variety of food including a lot of fresh light meals. We got a huge hummus plate, fruit plate and a house salad :) which was amazing after several hours of swimming with the kiddos. As animal lovers we would love posted animal feeding times, a caretaker option on the membership, as I’m a legally blind mom of 3 who requires a caretaker. They do however offer a nanny option but it’s for those with younger kids. As a military family we have been all over the US and now currently a veteran family, I can say that this place is a must visit especially if you have younger kiddos. Very unique and just pure relaxation.

Wonderful amenities! The kids saw flamingos, monkeys and even giraffes. Then they were able to do some trampoline and volley ball. Finally went to the family room where there were arcade games and bowling games. We had a lot of fun!

With all due respect, after going through the club I’ve had a poor experience with outdated, aged, and unpreserved equipment . The Ball machine area needs to be cleaned frequently and many of the tennis balls are deflated ,like a forgotten corner, disappointing .I hope you can fix these issues.
