Be careful when booking the pavilion. They will keep your deposit and claim you're breaking fire…read morecode, even while they are the ones manning the gates and handing out wristbands themselves. Bands does not indicate occupancy, it indicates attendance. Occupancy is where you are sitting or standing. Each area on the property the pavilions, the pool, and the deck has its own occupancy limit. In our case, most guests were in the pool or on the deck, not in the pavilion. The pavilion limit is 88, and well did not have everyone inside at once. Still, they said we were over capacity. But how did they determine we were at max capacity? Did the attendant count the total people occupying the space? I understand if we were at 89 guests in the pavilion we would be in violation but we were not. Staff should be familiar with their own fire codes and apply them correctly, not lump everyone together because each area has its own occupancy. What made this worse is that they themselves allowed outside guests to enter during the event and even let people drop off gifts, but then turned around and accused us of violating rules. Nothing was broken, no actual code was violated, and yet we were treated rudely and embarrassed in front of our guests. They should also know the total occupancy for the pool and pavilions combined. If their reasoning for not letting us book the other pavilion was that it required additional staffing, then technically, there should have been two attendants present already since there was an event and they were also allowing outside residents to come in. The rules need to be enforced fairly and with consistency. As it stands, it feels arbitrary and unprofessional. Will be in contact with the AHJ

Stop! You had me at pool party…read more First time here and celebrating a birthday. This is a private community area so you need to be sponsored in. It's a decent size that consist of three covered lanais and four small cabanas. The largest lanai where we were at has a regular refrigerator and a sink. The counter top is large and has several power outlets. Also there's a countertop island where the host has placed all the food. The pool is great size. Not too big and not too small. It almost takes up half of the community area. The kids really enjoyed it and surrounding the north side of the pool are lounge chairs. There is a shower between the restroom entrances to wash off the pool chlorine. Security was visible the whole time. Well two guys wearing security labeled tee shirts and taking out the bagged trash people left after cleaning up. I think they are there to enforce the rules and make sure things don't get out of hand. Overall four stars. Great parking and reasonable seating. Not quite five due to long reservation time. and looking for someone to sponsor you in. Great place to celebrate with a small crowd or family. Now to get my feet wet. M

Summer is here and Rec 7 is in good use for Sunday family fun. Who needs a staycation?…read more You can slide down the hill if you bring your own cardboard. The pool is beautiful with what looks like 3 lifeguards on duty. You can rent a pavilion for your own little enclave to picnic by bringing your own food and drinks supplemented by CPK pizza, salad, Mac & cheese for the kiddies. Starting to drizzle? Doesn't bother all the people in the pool. You can even purchase shave ice and coffee here. Hot fun in the summer time. This is the life. Hubs chose this venue for his birthday celebration with the grandkiddies. You know the nursery rhyme about Jack n Jill? Well... today hubs was Jack, not steady on his feet coming down the hill and took a big spill down the hill. Maybe he thought he was young at heart.

The Lodge is a beautiful community center. I've attended many events here and love the area. The…read morelodge itself is a small area but very quaint and has a tender vibe to it. The walls are brick white, by the entrance you're able to set up a reception area, there are two steps and you are in the main area with the kitchen off to the left and a fire place as the focal point to the right. Multiple windowed doors leading out to the pool area. The Jacuzzi area is up a few stairs and several feet away from the pool. Large lounge area, bathrooms are very clean. The view is breath-taking when standing pool side. Lots of street parking. If you're looking to have a small intimate gathering, this would be the perfect place. Security can be seen doing their rounds, very secure. Attend a psychic event here, they created a beautifully serene environment. Also attended a passion party event and this venue blended well with that event too. Beautiful, well kept, stunning view, wonderful area and works well for any type of function.

Pool is nice and heated/warm…read more Kiddie pool isn't heated/warm. For as long as I can remember, the pool doesn't look like it changed since I was in middle school. I attended a birthday pool party at night so all I can remember is the rectangular shape of it. The temperature control is a great enhancement! Location: Situated near Hanalani school. Nice size lot with an abundance of open stalls. Some stalls are not meant to be reversed in, there's a sign. Few vending machines for snacks and drinks. Lifeguard checks the chlorine level every so often. Pool toys seem to be allowed. I brought my sons pool rings and the lifeguard didn't say anything. Great pool overall. I'd come back on days I wouldn't want to risk the chance of swimming in an over crowded pool at the other recreation centers in the vicinity. Why I subtracted a star: Floaties aren't allowed. Including infant ones.. Lifeguard didn't even notice we were blowing it up because he was doing his job by watching those in the pool. I didn't see a sign either. A lady who clearly works at the rec center walked right past us and could have told me straight up. I won't bite.. But instead she told him and then the messenger came to us lol.

Ewa by Gentry homeowners (and renters/tenants of an Ewa by Gentry home) are privy to a community…read morecenter that's exclusively for them. Located on Keaunui Drive next to Thomas H. Gentry Community Park sits a lone structure that houses an outdoor lap pool and party pavillions. Having a community center like this is a huge plus because here in Hawaii there is no such thing as a "small party." There are two pavilions available for rental: LARGE PAVILION: - maximum capacity is 88 people - that provides 16 tables and seating for 88 people - damage deposit check of $275.000 - rental fee with pool access for $375.00 - rental fee without pool access $275.00 - minimum time to rent pavilion is 5 hours - additional hourly rate if your event surpasses 5 hours is $55.00/hr - additional hourly rate for pool time if your event surpasses 5 hours is $25.00/hr - FULL KITCHEN AVAILABLE ON PREMISE SMALL PAVILION: - maximum capacity is 39 people - that provides 8 tables and 39 chairs - damage deposit check of $175.00 - rental fee with pool access for $275.00 - rental fee without pool access is $175.00 - minimum time to rent pavilion is 5 hours - additional hourly rate if your event surpasses 5 hours is $35.00/hr - additional hourly rate for pool time if your event surpasses 5 hours is $25.00 - NO KITCHEN AVAILABLE FOR SMALL PAVILION Also note there there NO LIFEGUARDS OR ATTENDANTS ON DUTY TO PROVIDE SUPERVISION. What I love about this place is that your guests can get as loud as they want because there is no immediate housing nearby that would complain of noise pollution. It's a great venue for parties that require more space than your home or perhaps something not the size of a banquet room at a hotel or country club. Perfect for the "small" local parties. There is tons of parking specific to this community center but also tons of available non-metered street parking. There is also a resident pool membership if your specific housing does not have a pool. The fee is an annual rate of $50.00 for head of household and $15.00 for each additional household member who is 7 years and older. There's a pool schedule that allots for open swims, swim clubs and lessons as well as overnight lap swims (it's an additional fee to have access to night swims). In my opinion, this is such a great asset to the growing Ewa plain community. The only downside is that this community center is that it's for all Ewa by Gentry (can't have just one if you're gonna build up the entire west side of Oahu). This is strictly a community center with no recreational equipment (like a gym or workout equipment).

My friends and I came in and the lady asked for his name (valid) and how many guests to which he replied 4. She said "you know its usually $7 per guest" and side eyed us?? $7/person is fine, whatever, we'll pay it but all that attitude and proceeded not to charge us anyway?? We swam for a bit and at 755p, i guess it closes at 7:45, she walked to the deck and said "the pool closed 10 mins ago! you guys need to leave!" but there was people still swimming laps in the pool? and she never said anything to them? Idkkk just rubbed us the wrong way especially from the jump when all she had to do was check his name and let us in. Her body language, tone and attitude said everything we needed to know about her ... Giving insecure in my opinion! We all work customer service and we get having bad days but she is downright unprofessional and disrespectful.

It gets really dark on the top area, due to the lighting being out (like someone pulled the lights out or threw rocks at it which made it break). That's the reason i rated it a 4, because i feel that the lighting should get fixed so that if people are up there at night there's light. Overall this location is a really pretty place to watch hula performances, or just to hang out under the trees. The bathrooms are also pretty clean considering this is a public park. There's toilet paper in all stalls and soap to wash your hands. Lots of parking up at the top. The entrance is right after you pass the skate park.

You must have a current Mililani Town Association membership consisting of a digital bar code to obtain your wrist bands to enjoy the Splash area and the separate pool area. There is a rope at the 4 feet depth. Two life guards are on duty. One life guard was seriously watching her post while another one was socializing with another lifeguard his eyes on her and not the kiddies in the water. Like they say, always be an arms reach away from your child in the water. There are umbrellaed tables and some benches in the pool area and benches around the Splash area. Be prepared to get misted on depending on which way the breeze is blowing. It's good to see improvements made to Rec 4 for families to enjoy. The women's restroom has two curtained shower stalls. Can't tell you about the men's side. Have a nice summer.
