It's definitely tucked away and has a much more secluded, low-key vibe. Let's be real: it doesn't have the flashy appeal or the brand-new, high-tech equipment that you'll find at the newer facility down the road. It feels a bit more old-school, but honestly, that's exactly what makes it great. Because it's a bit out of the way, it's incredibly quiet. You can actually get in, smash your workout without the chaotic crowds, and enjoy the unique, relaxed atmosphere. A hidden bonus if you ask the front desk......If you work a different schedule over at the naval shipyard, this place has a major hidden perk for off-shift timing. I can't say too much, but if you know, you know. It makes a massive difference for routing your day.

Vibe is low key and scaled down. Staff will issue a key to store your valuables in small locker. Small locker definitely fits a Lululemon belt bag large 2L. There's one hydration station to refill your water bottle or flask. Disposable paper napkins, cleaning sprays, hand sanitizer dispensers are available for use. Bring your own towel(s). I've been here numerous times with different floor plans in prior years and wasn't completely satisfied or conducive to workout goals. I've also been to a Zumba class a couple times with my BFF from high school. Restrooms are across from entrance and exit door. Free parking across the street or behind the facility. Hours of operation are Mon-Fri 0500-2030, Sat-Sun 0700-1700 and closed on holidays.

I can say 24 hour gyms are a great asset to those trying to get fit, however this gym has a real sanitary issue. I'm sure certain people come in at different times during the week to clean the locker-rooms, bathrooms, etc....however, I think what this gym really needs is some plumbing renovations. It seems like every time I go into the women's locker-room a toilet has overflown which, as you can imagine, means the locker-room smells, isn't very clean or useful, and makes you never want to go in there. They also have a problem with roaches and other pests. I mostly workout at night so I always have to deal with them blocking my path, crawling in corners of the locker-room, etc. Ugh...so gross. The military needs to hire some terminators to keep the pests at bay. Other than the above aforementioned, this gym gets the job done and I usually get to watch my TV shows with full volume since other gym-goers are few and far-between.

My daughter loves all-star cheer at Island Elite! I cheered in high school and college, so…read morebasically I get to live my best life watching my 8-year old enjoy my favorite sport of all time! We're currently in our second year of cheer and she almost has her back handspring and is learning to be a flyer on their junior team. I love picking her up from cheerleading and hearing her excitedly tell us all about her practice time. Pros: -Top level, quality instruction. I WISH I could have gone to this cheer gym when I was in high school. They're really stringent about technique and won't allow you to progress onto a new skill until you have foundational skills in place. Tumbling this year has been split by skill level so there's more time to practice and improve. Coaches expect a lot out of the teams but I believe they're always fair and I'm really happy they're not easy during practice. -The teams are awesome and they really improve exponentially from the start to the end of the season. Last year our daughter wasn't on a travel team and I'm really looking forward to seeing her compete at a national competition. It's not only improved her physical skills as an athlete, but it's given her a different level of confidence that can only be gained through hard work and tenacity. -Island Elite is located in town. There are other all-star gyms but I don't want to have to fight through traffic to get there. Cons: -Cheer is not a cheap sport like soccer, and monthly tuition for all-star cheer is $200+ a month for three practices a week, plus $30-$60 for tumbling classes. I still totally think it's worth it because you're committing to being the best! In addition to your monthly practice tuition you'll also spend $1000+ on cheer uniforms, choreography and approximately $100-$200 on each competition your team competes in. Currently the all-star teams compete in two local competitions and 1-2 mainland competitions in the Spring. If traveling for cheer is not something you want to do, they also have cheer teams which practice once a week and only do local competitions. I think this is a good alternative if you're unsure of the time and financial commitment. The gym also offer opportunities to fundraise throughout the year. -During our first year of cheer I didn't always feel as though communication was the best, but now that we're on our second year I feel as though we are a lot better equipped in terms of what to expect and what questions to ask. -Island Elite is located in a warehouse that shares the same parking lot as Costco Iwilei. Unfortunately the practice gym is not air conditioned so it gets really hot especially during the Summer months.

This place is undoubtedly one of my favorite places to be, to escape your fears, your stresses, even if it is just for an hour or two. Thank you my love and basketball. Just to make sure, you need clearance to get in either as a civilian or military person. It's not open to the public. Happy Workouts!!!
