Elegant, safe and pleasant! These are the words, came to my mind the moment I entered this place and spent an hour. Very good swim school for all ages of children. Over and above family friendly ! Parents and grand-parents can come and watch their children having fun. Good facilities- be it be rest room, shower stall, driers, hair dryers…..you name it. Enjoyed it fully. And yeah, nice staff of so many coaches and life guards and front desk. And yeah this place is best. I give 4 stars not because I found something wrong with place. But I believe any one can become better than best

This Swim school rated high and they do teaching well and I never visited other Swim schools. - But their assessment staff/teacher attentiveness is very poor. They don't properly pay attention to the kid, either they try to help them exactly the student was performing what they asked for, sometimes they will be searching their names or chatting with colleague etc., Multiple time I see the student was spending lot of time on the same class and same lessons even though they perform well (I am not a swimmer, but I am looking at other kids as well every week). - On the other end not all teacher are great (for 5 star), I don't want to degrade any Great teacher, but there are some teacher was not that great as others, as soon as one of my kid move from one class to another, it is hard to find the best teacher for my another kid to get the same session. Revising the Review: * Thank you for listening my feedback and concern to sort out. Only few of them try to talk to understand the concern to improve the quality.

We absolutely love Goldfish! The facilities are always clean and taken care of. Staff are super kind. Our daughter is thriving in swim class and learning the skills she needs to be safe around water.
