I've been to a few AFs and this is my favorite. Recently under new management and I love to see all of the improvements! Stair master was finally fixed very quickly after management changed, new machines, bands, locks on the lockers, a sauna, several more knowledgeable trainers, and a lot more community engagement. read more

Robert and his team make sure the gym is spotless, always cleaning the gym and assisting the members with knowledge about the gym equipment. Definitely worth going to! read more

starting my membership at the Vista office was very quick. love the friendly service and great advice. they went well beyond my expectations. Tristan went out of his way to explain the new upcoming changes and additions in the near future. the Vista gym is perfect for my exercising needs and what I appreciate greatly is the cleanliness of the facility, from bathrooms and showers. There are disinfectant sprays and paper towels for us to use for cleaning after or before using the equipment. A great plus are the towels for gym use. Looking forward to the new snackmachine. read more

The owner, Darrell, has been emailing me and his enthusiasm as a new gym owner is infectious. Enough so, that I wanted to update my review for him. If you've been following my reviews, you know I have memberships to every big box gym, and this particular location is my absolute favorite (the one in Simi Valley lacks turf in favor of a dance room!) I'm short, and the Life Fitness equipment here is optimized for my height. I think it's Hammer Strength at most other gyms, and Planet Fitness has their own brand for resistance training. I'm always between notches for (seat, etc) adjustments with those. This gym holds a special place in my heart- I've hit PRs (personal records) on my hip thrust (thee most embarrassing exercise ever: I only feel comfortable here doing it!), squat, deadlift, bench press and leg press. All without a spotter because the racks have safeties here. I started training a friend, who signed up the same day she started coming. She didn't have a key fob and I let her in with the promise to pay as no trainers were there yet. I came back, and one said "oh yeah, we saw you on camera that day!" And he noted that because she was signed up, we owed nothing. Super amazing customer service. No pros and cons; please see my previous review for that. read more

I've gotten a membership Friday of last week , it's Tuesday the staffing hours must be wrong cause I've called and I visited this gym an no one is here so I can gain access to this gym read more

Go to a different gym. There are only two stair climbers and one of them has been out of order for months. No sense of urgency to try to get it fixed. Employees post cat memes asking you to clean up after yourself but yet there is never any toilet paper in the bathrooms. Sometimes the bathroom smells and you can see skid marks in the toilets. When I signed up it took the employee forever to figure out the system and get me registered which was the first red flag. read more

Update: to let others know the outcome of going head to head with the manager at Vista & fallbrook facility. Long story short, after forwarding screenshots of emails with times & dates. My bank & the collection agency that this person sent after me for many months. Have decided that I got my money back and dropped the collection against me. Plus they restored my negative points by letting the credit bureau know of this judgment. It is unfair how much this person wanted to charge me for something I complained about prior my exit, I was not able to use the facilities and then they got new equipment and even then not able to because of too many students and babies inside taking up space. So I quit, new equipment still had caution tape on it. Why charge me all these fees? I am glad I stuck to providing phone calls and e-mails to these companies. read more

Hands down the. Best gym I have ever been to. Brandin the manager is a good guy and always makes sure that the gym is in tip top shape.

There's have been some decent improvements in the past few months so I have to acknowledge that. The new trainers have improved things a bit since the last two left. With that said there's a lot this gym needs. Mostly in cleanliness and maintenance. - Bathrooms are typically pretty bad. Often out of soap, gross or clogged toilets and the one showers leaks and sprays washer everywhere when you turn it on. - The ceiling leaks when it rains. - Often small bugs walking around on the floor. - Most of the machines aren't bolted to the floors. This is a safety issue! The machines walk while using them and get very close to other machines. I've had to drag an incline machine away from the weight rack and calf press machine. We don't have a lot of options in Vista so I'm happy it's here but honestly, it's a bit of a bummer that it's not cleaner and safer. I hope they keep making positive changes in time. read more

I scheduled an appointment to get a tour of the gym and when I got there, not a single employee was there. I waited 15 minutes ringing the doorbell and nobody showed up for my scheduled appointment. What's the point of an appointment system if they won't even show up for it? read more

Good gym with amazing trainers that get results! In 6 weeks I lost over 6% body fat and 28lbs I have never been much of a gym person, especially group classes, but I decided to give it a go. I signed up with Omar as my trainer and committed to give it a try for 6 weeks. Omar met with me and asked my goals and helped me set up a plan. I wanted to loose weight, I was in the worst shape of my life. I committed to 3 classes a week that were 1 hour long, and followed a easy meal pan Omar provided. In that time I saw some surprising results. I lost over 6% body fat and dropped 28 pounds. I feel like a new person and am amazed at the body transformation I was able to achieve in just 3 hours a week. I put in the effort to show up but I give most of the credit to my trainer Omar. He put together challenging but fun classes that were different every time, and he somehow made the group atmosphere that I usually dislike something to look forward to. I would definitely recommend giving this gym a shot. You won't regret it! read more

Great gym, great equipment, members are friendly when my spouse and I are working out around the 5:30am time slot.

After my old gym shut down for the 3rd time while I was trying to finally get myself in better shape, I was looking for a place that would be there for me at a time when health was supposedly a big concern for everyone. I found that in Anytime Fitness in Vista. Using common sense while still following the necessary protocols, this gym helped me to stay healthy physically and mentally when I needed it the most and when other places wouldn't rise to the challenge. And on top of all that, it's a pretty sweet gym too. I mostly come to use the state-of-the-art elliptical machines. They have a lot of other options like classes and personal trainers that I have yet to utilize, but I look forward to getting the most out of my membership here. It's also really nice that the gym is open 24 hours, even while it's not staffed. They give you a key fob so that members can still have access anytime of any day. I'm very pleased with my decision to ditch the gym that ditched me when I needed them the most and call Anytime my new home for fitness. read more

This is the worst experience I have had with a fitness gym. I recently moved and I am no longer near any locations so I contacted them to cancel. I went in to the Vista facility, gave them my key and we agreed on a price to cancel. I have paid that amount and they still continue to charge my card. They call me several times per week even though I asked them to please stop calling. I have no choice but to dispute the fraudulent charges with my credit card company. As far as the phone calls, they use different numbers so I am not Block all if them. If you are considering joining, you have been WARNED! read more

I was very excited to join a gym again, since the one to which I belonged before the pandemic has not reopened. I checked with them when I first went in about the cleaning and masking protocols. Unfortunately, each time I have been in the first two weeks, few if any of the other members have been following the mask requirements. The staff has not been incredibly responsive, as every time I go in there, I have had to let them know that people were not abiding by the rules. I can neither patronize a place that takes public health so casually, nor can I recommend it for anyone else. read more

Patrick and Omar are amazing trainers. My wife and I along with our business partner signed up for the six week program.I really like the vibe of any time fitness along with the HIT training. Keep up the good work guys read more

This is such a great gym and so close to my house. It's smaller but everything is brand new and super clean! This gym has everything I was looking for and is open 24/7. Not only do they offer the workout classes that I was looking for, but I also have access to the gym. The staff and coaches are very welcoming. The 2nd day I came in, they were calling me by my first name. What other gym does that? You are assigned a coach right off. Coach Omar is amazing, full of energy, motivating and will keep you on track. They are always available to answer any questions. The manager, Christen is very nice and very helpful. He is knowledgeable and get you hooked up with everything you need. Sign up now! read more

CLEAN! This small fitness center is perfect. New equipment and always clean. Wipes available at different stations. Never many members here at the same time. My wife and I love this place. 5 stars all the way. read more

Best gym ever. Super chill. Everyone respects the rules. Everyone does their own thing

I love this place. The trainers are amazing. The facility is spotless. And even in these crazy times you feel safe and appreciated. Love love love anytime fitness read more

I signed up for their 6 week challenge and while it was an incredible struggle I was able to lose my challenge weight! It's a great gym and the team training is wonderfully structured. Omar programs his workouts really well and makes every workout just challenging enough to keep progressing without absolutely killing you. The 6 week challenge is quite a lofty goal but if you can be strict with yourself it is definitely worth it! read more

Loved this gym while I was here, it's never too busy and all the equipment is great. Loved having a punching bag and kinda miss Anytime Fitness now that I'm writing this! Cynthia, one of the managers at the location, was absolutely awesome. I loved how much peace I had coming to this gym. read more

I would not recommend this business! I was encouraged to check them out, due to an advertisement for Seniors to participate in a 6-week trial program, with no obligation. After touring the facility, I was told that a deposit of $500 was required! I couldn't believe it. I said that I couldn't afford that, and was then told of other membership plans. I decided to try the month to month program at $29.99 every two weeks. Exactly two weeks later, I called to cancel, because my mom was dying and I needed to go to Phoenix for an undetermined length of time. I spoke to Omar, who had originally signed me up. I'm pretty positive that he had told me that they had a 14-day cancellation policy, so I anticipated that they would withdraw one more payment. They withdrew another two payments and I was told they had a 30 day cancellation policy. Even with a 30-day cancellation policy, they withdrew the last payment on the 30th day. It might be legal, but they certainly have no compassion. They got almost $120 from this senior, my mother did pass away, and I never worked out one day! Poor business! read more

This gym, one of a few open during this crazy time! Anytime Fitness has only just opened! The equipment is current and progressive. The staff is knowledgeable and experienced. They are attentive and willing to help, give advice or instruct you in the proper safe operation of equipment. Just as important, the staff is following protocols cleaning and ensuring a safe environment while you are in the gym. This is the perfect place to begin, resume, or continue your exercise routine!! read more

Great to have a new, clean, small but effective gym with awesome trainers in this neighborhood. 24/7 access is definitely a plus, and love their functional training sessions. Cannot wait til they have more of them, there are only 3 classes per day right now and sometimes it does get challenging to attend one. read more

This place is GREAT. Omar, Patrick and Christian are an awsome trio. They make this Gym easy to return to and the workouts are GREAT. They really worked with me when I had to stop going to the gym for medical reasons. These guys are more like family and make you feel very comfortable. Thank You guys for everything you do!!! read more

One of the first gyms to open up since Covid-19 shut everything down and boy am I stoked! Currently attending this location until they finish the one being built across the street from my house, but I can be patient. It's definitely a smaller scale gym but it has everything you need to get back in the game. It's not your power lifter gym, there's no platforms or anything since it's smaller but don't let that stop you from coming here! I don't really understand the purple and green color scheme that a lot of gyms have seemed to do but it's okay! Colors are nice I got signed up by the GM Christian who will make sure you have everything you need! They also have a new inbody scale that's even better than the original called Evofit360, you get a free evaluation when you use your free coaching session when you sign up for your membership. Don't wait to get back to your summer bod, you can start now! read more

This business is a mess! The trainers, management and customer service is HORRIBLE. Once I joined, NOTHING they promised was done. They never pointed out nutrition, never asked me to get on the scale for the 6 week challenge, never tracked a thing, could careless that I even showed up. I called to cancel my membership because of work and I was so unhappy on how I was treated. Cynthia was nice enough to cancel my membership a month ago, except she didn't, and I kept getting charged! Once I asked her today about the $150 I received in charges she mentioned that she waived the cancellation fee so she felt it was a wash and I needed to suck it up. Problem is she was supposed to cancel it a month ago and now I had to now call AGAIN because no one EVER returns your phone call, and I'm out $150 ADDITIONAL dollars because I wasn't going and no one was doing ANYTHING for me there. The gym is very, very poorly mismanaged and I would not recommend it to ANYONE. read more

I was scrolling through Facebook and an ad caught my eyes, a 6-week Body Bootcamp Challenge designed for women ages 35-39 to reboot their metabolism. I was 39, active but still overweight, unhappy with how I look, my daughter was getting out of school in 7 weeks and we have military orders to move in 10 weeks. It was like the ad was speaking directly to me. I signed up right away and started a week later. The classes are amazing! They are hard enough to give you a great workout without being overwhelmingly hard to where you don't feel like you can complete them. I look forward to each workout & I always feel so accomplished afterward. The two trainers I had are wonderful, very friendly, approachable, encouraging, and they taught me a lot. Omar pushes me hard in every class but is always very positive and encouraging. He is very knowledgeable about nutrition and helped me adjust my eating plan throughout the 6 weeks to achieve the best result for me. Patrick always focuses on having the correct form during workouts and emphasizes the importance of stretches, which help me tremendously and allow me to get better every class. They did a body scan at week 3 to analyze your progress. I was doing great and feeling great, following my meal plan, but I had only lost 1 lb. Omar took a look at my food journal and pointed out right away that I wasn't eating enough protein for how active I was, so I increased my daily protein and lost 5 more pounds in the last 3 weeks of the challenge. The only thing I wish we could've done differently was to do a scan at week 2 so that the nutrition adjustment would have a week longer to take effect. Other than that, I'm extremely happy with the program and I look forward to continuing the workouts and nutrition to see more progress. Thanks so much, Omar & Patrick!! You have changed my life so much for the better. My 6-yr-old can now tell you what is considered carb/protein/veggie. Through keeping a food journal, I have learned that I was just doing mindless snacking on so much carb that was turning into fat. Now, I'm more aware and intentional about what I eat so I can fuel my body properly. After doing the 6-week challenge, I lost 6 lbs of body fat mass and dropped 2% in my body fat percentage. I look good, feel good, and I'm looking forward to turning 40 in a few months because now I don't look or feel 40! Thank you for this awesome program that has turned my life around!! LW read more

The vista gym is nice, new equipment and new building. Christian is very helpful! Great to see a gym open during corona virus

I recently participated in the 6-week challenge and this gym had an overall nice atmosphere I really enjoyed. Even though I was doing a challenge I appreciated the focus on lifestyle and long-term goals. We regularly trained and consulted with Patrick and Omar and occasionally ran into the owner, Evan, and they were all very friendly and personable. I liked that the gym was light and bright with a lot of natural daylight unlike most others. Also it offers a rare combination of classes and equipment, as most traditional gyms may offer HIIT classes but it is usually only at a certain time during the day or week with little flexibility. This gym checked all the boxes as far as location, good vibe and camaraderie between staff and fellow trainees, workout options, cleanliness, bathrooms/lockers, etc. read more

Got a membership here, Christian was very helpful. Come sign up with him he's awesome ((:

Super excited to start my fitness journey again. Christian was super helpful!! Definitely come check it out if you haven't :)

Awesome!! Was in town for short stay and was able to get a 30day pass....) since planet fitness was on lock-down ) the manager Christian was great to work with...very accommodating. Clean gym, great equipment especially the spin bike. read more

It is a super great gym, super clean and organized with very well trained coaches, all super friendly and looking for a way to help you meet your goals, they motivate you and make the exercise not boring, which encourages you to keep going it's just awesome!! read more

I joined the 6-week challenge at the Vista location and completed it about 3 weeks ago. I want to give a shoutout to Christian who gave me the space for me to decide when the time was right to start the challenge and gave me subtle texts of reminders and encouragement that he was there when I wanted to start. I am 59 now and I would go to classes when I was in my 20s but during and after my kids, and always working, I never made the time for myself. I saw the promotion on Facebook and wanted to give it a try. When I signed up I was assured that there was no body shaming and that everyone was family and that they were there to help me achieve my goals. Omar was my trainer and he is nothing short of amazing.  He worked with me and would modify the exercises when I needed help.  I lost 12 pounds and I feel great and through what I learned from the nutrition facts and instructions and I know what exercises work best for me, I have been able to maintain the weight loss and energy to exercise on my own. Thank you Anytime Fitness in Vista. read more
