The UFC/MMA Kakaako Gym, has all of the weightlifting equipment that I require, for my age bracket and disabilities, since 2012. The gym is also has a good social environment for the membership. The gym has a good assortment of food, supplements, and a multitude of gym beverages. Since it is open 24 hour, it also accommodates shift workers. You get out of any gym, what you put into it. no read more

The facilities are run down and half the machines are out of order on any given day. They can't keep staff to save their lives except for the ones that charge you when you haven't gone to their facility for several years. Ren is the worst PT director I have ever encountered. He is irresponsible, unresponsive, and charges accounts without authorization not once, not twice, but three times and literally hides behind his other employees to avoid talking with customers to fix his mistakes. Do not ever go to UFC Honolulu. Drive the extra 20-30 minutes and go to Kailua or Mililani. Waipahu even. UFC Honolulu is the worst (and most expensive) mistake I've ever made. read more

The gym workers are nice and the trainers are great but the status of the men's locker room is horrendous. I get the gym has wild hours and it's hard to keep a place clean but there's got to be a greater effort made for the amount of money some ppl pay for these memberships. The mold issue in the men's shower is so bad. You can smell the black mold in there as if it's an old wooden ship.... I've worked on board 40 year old boats that have less mold than that locker room. That's a health hazard. read more

We pay for one crazy faculty fee! For the gym to just stay nasty. Machines stay functional. But the restrooms and trash bins be overflowing. I don't see no staff cleaning at night, I left a clean paper towel crumpled up to see if they would remove it and it was still there next week. Men's bathroom smells like sweat, moisture, mold, piss and heat. Trash also always overflowing. Some Members no more respect too just trashing the place. Crazy kine cans and bottles everywhere. Feel like gotta work out in one Tyvek suit. If we paying for faculty fee, at least keep the place sanitized and clean. Come on UFC we know you guys gots the money. read more

Management is terrible. They lie, intimidate, threaten, play games, and steal your money. don't go here. Don't expect to get what you pay for here, and when you try to cancel, don't do any deals with the devil, just GTFO ASAP. read more

The management is absolutely and utterly unprofessional and scammy. I know of 3 different people, 4 including myself that have been scammed out of money and lied to by staff. I was told I was paying a down payment of $200 for my membership months ago but what I was actually paying for was personal training sessions which I never requested and would have never bought. I have been requesting a refund for months which I was promised months ago by a manager which ended up quitting (I'm assuming because of the unprofessionalism) and have been downplayed and ignored time and time again. Oh and, The gym itself is crowded all the time and smells awful. It is not nearly, in a million years worth $40 a month lol. I would NOT recommend coming here unless you want to be scammed, disregarded, and disrespected. Also, as a woman - I have been recorded and followed around the gym several times by creepy men. Go to planet fitness instead. read more

Every time I come out to visit, I get a week or month pass to come here. Since I'm on California time, I like that they are open 24 hours because I usually wake up at 3 am! On this last visit, they have done some moving around of the equipment and have new equipment as well. Everything is so bright and shiney and great to work out on! They still have the same great vibe and most of the members and staff are friendly. Definitely worth checking out. If you come early the parking lot is full, the meters don't start until 8 am. Parking is a bit of a challenge but at certain times, you can find a space. Mahalo UFC BJ Penn! read more

UFC GYM Honolulu - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I'm a fitness girly through and through so even while on vacation in Hawaii I wanted to stay on top of my workouts. I called ahead on Wednesday morning to ask about their day pass and week pass prices and honestly it was super reasonable. My boyfriend and I went in mid-morning, were greeted at the front desk, gave our info, and signed up for the week pass. The gym itself? Pure fire. I personally love gyms that feel packed with equipment, not messy but full. This place had everything: multiple squat racks, tons of cardio machines, plenty of cable setups, and a turf area. On top of that, they have the UFC vibe going with boxing and jiu-jitsu areas, which gave it great energy. We only ended up working out here two days because wedding events took over, but those sessions were amazing. Both me and my boyfriend left saying we would absolutely come back. If you're in Honolulu and need a solid gym while traveling this one is 10/10. I'll definitely be back on my next trip.

Mangers are extremely arrogant and rude. WiFi sucks. Arrogant mangers and manipulative. Canceled my membership so upset with how rude they were on multiple occasions. Brought my 16 year old brother in (who lived on island) and they tried to talk to him alone about membership. He's a kid- no adult should need to talk to a kid alone about buying a package with out guardian. Completely not ok. read more

Overall, the gym has great equipment, is clean, and offers plenty of space. However, heaven forbid you're a deployed Soldier. I went on a 9-month deployment and spoke with UFC Gym management beforehand to freeze my account. Per their policy, they could only freeze it for up to six months, after which I would need to call back and request another freeze. Six months into my deployment, I was frequently visiting bunkers, and needless to say, my UFC Gym membership was not at the forefront of my mind. After my 9 month deployment,  I returned to the island I discovered that I owed approximately $460 because the gym had resumed charging me after the initial freeze expired. By that point, four months had passed. I tried speaking with the current manager to work something out. An employee told me to pay half of the balance and that they would "work out" the other half. That never happened. It just doesn't sit well with me that if I had been killed during deployment, UFC Gym would have been perfectly willing to keep charging my account. Before I had this issue fully resolved, I was sent on orders for another three months. This time, I made every effort to coordinate beforehand. I emailed Tiffany, spoke with the front desk, and even called after I had left. I was confident everything had been taken care of. When I returned three months later, I found that my membership had been canceled because the account had been sent to collections. I owed another $450. The employee at the front desk told me that if I paid $200, they would waive the remaining balance. I agreed, only to be lectured afterward: "Don't wait until after you're gone to freeze your account." I smiled and replied, "I agree. That's why I tried to take care of it before I left." Great gym. Poor handling of deployed military members. read more

Coach Jason is awesome! He is super welcoming, very knowledgeable, great sense of humor, friendly, and awesome at breaking down and explaining techniques and principles. He is very observant and goes above and beyond what most instructors do in terms of actively approaching individuals with helpful feedback, and is very patient with everyone. He's also hilarious and very laidback so he promotes a fun and welcoming environment. Him and his son Gage make sure everyone is taken care of and will pair higher belts with those that need help, and watch out for everyone so nobody gets hurt. Not only is it fun and safe, it is a challenging workout and I always end up learning something useful. Thank you! read more

Not my favorite gym, went a few times since moving to the east side. Parking is terrible. Sometimes finding parking took longer than my workouts. Staff is okay, but the cleanliness is bad. Machines worn out, the dumbbells have this thick layer of dead skin or something feels nasty. Men's restroom is filthy. The second you walk in it smells like body odor pee, and idk what else. I hold it in and just wait to go home to use restroom it's that bad. Switched to another gym and couldn't be happier. I liked UFC Waikele but this one is a health hazard. read more

You will wait over 20 mins for a parking stall unless you pay for parking down the street. Parking lot/entrance is covered in trash The bathrooms are horrendous Urinal was broken Staff is meh You have to wait for machines 7am is a decent time to go when it's not too crowded and maybe 2pm or 3pm. There's a gym 2 blocks away called Ukiyo. I ended signing up there and cancelled my membership at UFC bc of reasons above. 2 stars instead of 1 bc the equipment just got upgraded read more

After getting my and my things stolen from UFC gym, they will not cooperate with the police investigation. Nor will they provide any of the camera evidence. Detective said that she's never had them cooperate with any investigation. UFC gym doesn't care about you personally, your property or your safety. They just want your money. Wild levels of incompetence in management. Zero sense of urgency. They just don't care. read more

UFC GYM Honolulu - My bag was stolen out of the locker, robbed of all of its valuables and left on the toilet. Great gym. - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Had my membership since they opened and the parking was the biggest obstacle for me not utilizing this gym. Thank God for the other gyms. This gym sucks for parking and the cleanliness of the gym also sucks. I'd love to see them clean up and build a parking garage for members only. I guess you have to be within walking distance of this place or uber it, because you'll be waiting forever to get a parking. The staff is great, but that's it! Don't waste your time going here, try UFC's other locations. It's much cleaner and the parking isn't as insane. read more

I just joined the gym a couple weeks ago. This gym is clean and it doesn't have the stinky gym smell..iykyk The gym has a lot of space. There are plenty of treadmills, stair masters, and elliptical machines. There are like 8-10 squat racks, which is amazing! The equipment is in great condition. I am working with a trainer. Kenna is awesome! Only con is that they don't have a lot of parking. I usually park about a block away. It's metered parking. I usually go to the gym in the evenings after 6pm, so I don't need to pay. I live super close, which is nice. Honestly, I wish I would have joined sooner! read more

All the coaches managers are friendly and nice. Great gym and best coaches all around Reyn Bryson Jean etc. I appreciate it all they do. This gym is a 10/10‍ read more

The parking situation is insane. And it's DIRTY as hell. And the music is way too loud, you can hear it thru noise cancelling headphones. The childcare center is great. But I cannot get over how gross this gym is especially the showers and locker rooms?? Ew ew ew. Please give this place a good scrub and I will literally update to 5 stars. Pls stop having ur employees texting and calling long time members constantly to upsell contracts and personal training packages... and put them to work cleaning these dirty bathrooms PLEASE read more

I first signed up with Juan, who made the process of snagging a deal pretty simple. He held the offer past its expiration date, which I definitely appreciated since I don't like the feeling of rushing a decision to commit to a gym long-term. Yes, parking is brutal. But, the gym is always open, and they have deals that kind of entice you to commit to a long-term plan, which I think is a win-win for both parties. The gym itself is large, and it goes back pretty far. The depth of the gym makes it a bit of a stretch to walk to and from the entrance to the back, but with its high ceilings, I do appreciate that it doesn't feel too claustrophobic. They have pretty much every machine, free weight, and other equipment you'll need, so no complaints there. I'd just say it could use a tidy up a bit more frequently. They just got new equipment in the past month and it shows. I didn't feel like I'd been walking into an older gym despite it being around for some time. There's also no funk or smell to the gym, although sometimes they could run the AC a bit more often as it gets stuffy easily. My recommendation is to never go during rush hour. If you can go at a time where there's fewer people, DO THIS for the sake of parking and having access to the equipment you need. All things considered, it's convenient for anyone around the Kaka'ako area to walk to it, but parking can be a nightmare. I'd recommend parking a few streets over if you don't want to deal with it. read more

It's been a great couple weeks of joining the gym.Its super clean, good equipment and great coaches, bam bam and Juan were very helpful and informative with all my needs as for child care and gym classes. My daughter is loving her jujutsu classes! Excited to be in this community and learning nonstop! read more

I am 84 years old and there are a lot of young people but every time I go they welcome me. They always open any doors for me I am on a walker. My couch, Jean is amazing! She knows exactly how to help me. I have become so much stronger since she has been helping me. When I am on some of the equipment if I need help...I don't have to ask, they just come and help me. The staff is always ao happy and loving. I feel so welcome there. And the equipment is also amazing. Their treadmills are so easy to use. I love it! read more

Been here or Mililani location since 2019. Staff is always helpful and equipment maintenance is pretty timely. Great experience and I highly recommend! read more

Told me to come in for a day pass and then wouldn't let me workout when I got there. Complete waste of time and rude staff.

Facility is like any other gym. It's well kept but their app that they advertise when you first sign up really needs work. So does corporate. I've asked and called for 2 weeks to change my payment to another card because no one had told me that the app is basically useless in changing payment methods so they charged the wrong card. I had some bills to pay but had to rotate my finances a little because I had to pay their promo membership which is a steal but still quite expensive. I don't think it's the front staffs fault. They said corporate is the one that handles it but corporate is absolutely lacking in solving this. Im not even saying I won't pay. I just wanted a different card to be charged. After my 2 years here, never signing up ever again. Such a hassle. Better to do at home workouts. Tsk read more

Mmm. Great location in the heart of Kaka'ako. As usual this is a 24-hour gym available to its members and their guests. Parking available on the side of the building or else its metered within the next so many blocks. The location is set up weird as its very long. Lots of machine and useful equipment with a Kids club, octagon in the middle, and some food counters in the front. Bathrooms were semi clean. A few weren't operational, neither was the sauna room. No private areas to get dressed. I did appreciate the hair dryers provided. Not my favorite UFC location but it serves its purpose if you need it. read more

I would say the parking is kind of a nightmare which is what keeps me from coming to this gym regularly. It's kind of an awkward set up compared to the Mililani gym. Long and narrow however, they have so much more machines to choose from here so it's nice to change it up every once in a while. read more

I do not recommend this UFC location in Honolulu. The staff and some coaches are extremely rude, aggressive, and unprofessional. Multiple times I've felt intimidated and harassed while simply trying to use the facility. The environment feels hostile rather than supportive, which defeats the purpose of a gym for recovery and fitness. The facility also has issues with cleanliness, crowded or poorly maintained areas, and parking is limited. Management does not handle complaints effectively, so problems go unresolved. If you value a safe, respectful, and professional atmosphere, avoid this location. Bad energy , bad vibes period not worth it Bunch of weird people walking around thinking they r something special I am a women and I feel attacked here every time I come in The IQ is so low I am VIP member I pay 140$ a month for this trash location I won't come back and I do not recommend it to anyone !!!!! Do not go !!!!! Unsafe and unwelcoming maybe other than one person or two that work here The rest is GHETTO read more

Working with the Reyn has been great. He's always prepared with good dynamic workout plans that push me towards my goals. He's also very flexible with his schedule. 5 stars for Reyn, 3.5 stars for the facility due to ongoing maintenance and cleanliness. read more

Never been to a gym in my life, didn't know what to expect. I signed up for personal training to have someone walk me through the process and get me back in performance shape like I had in the past. Hunter has been the BEST trainer, making everything super easy, writing out a workout plan with explanations as to why we do each exercise, meal plan, and overall things to look out for to see the best results. In one month I've been able to see my front squat go to 185 (I was 150lbs going into this) which was far greater than I could imagine, especially from never having lifted weights in my life. I seriously recommended getting a training session with Hunter if you want real results. 4/5 stars only because the gym could be little cleaner. Go see Hunter. read more

If you want a gym that: -always has a line for parking -unfriendly front desk workers who don't even look up from their phone when they scan you in -sticky/broken lat pulldown/seated row and broken machines (and missing caribiners) -a dumbell area that's extremely cramped with uneven flooring -smelly bathrooms -people who shadowbox in between sets -zero cable cross over machines Then this is the perfect gym for you Then this gym is for you read more

Some of the better machines than all the other gyms around the area But nothing will make me get rid of my membership faster than this awful music. It's not even the genre of music that's the issue it is the VOLUME I have to ask EVERY SINGLE DAY for someone to turn the music down. Everyone around me agrees it was too loud today and most of the staff could literally care less The music is actually so loud that I can hear it through NOISE CANCELLING head phones. Not too sure what the issue is with having volume control. If the staff at the desk would like to hear the music they should install a speaker right above them read more

Mediocre. My first two months at this gym were spent being hounded by various staff regarding membership upgrades, perks, anything that could squeeze some more money out of me. It felt like they were more interested in my wallet than my fitness journey. Just seems like staff is all very new and has no idea what's going on around the gym. Also they need to clean the turf and the bathrooms!! If you know what you're doing in the gym and you just keep your head down and go it's fine. Will still be going cause paid too much not to, but do better UFC! read more

Love this place. Can't beat the price for what this place offers. So many BJJ schools these days are way too expensive. UFC gym not only offers daily Jiujitsu classes, it always has striking classes, no gi, soana and more. It is a little sad to see most belt and stripe promotions take place at other schools but that's something that can be fixed really easily. Overall can't beat the price with competition level sparring partners. It's the best BJJ Honolulu has to offer. read more

Canceled my membership twice with these guys in different years. Once in 2023 once in 2025. And every time I canceled they would tell me blah blah ok your set for cancellation and they'd tell me my last day to workout in the gym etc. EVery time I ask after I cancel ok so there are no more payments will be taken out right ? And they always say yea nothing will be take out. and the last day comes and goes and they take out another payment after they say they won't be taking any more payments.The manager the haole guy no good. Front desk popole girl no good lie. Bam bam no good lies all the time. Who are these idiots running the place. read more

I like this gym and I'm a member but I have to say, their men's locker room is in the worst condition I've ever seen. It's stinks like hell. The lockers are infested with roaches. The sauna is filthy and broken wood and their shower walls and floors are filled with scum and grit. They need to do something drastic ASAP. Other than that staff is great and the equipment is great. read more

It's an amazing place to go work out, the staff and coaches are very kind and the equipment is insane! I would definitely recommend checking this place out. read more

Parking sucks And if your not local don't bother trying to get a get pass at any of the gyms, new to the island or just visiting only residents get guest passes. You would think they would welcome new business but they only want local money. read more

total horror show for customer service and membership management. over promised under delivered, charged for for 2 accounts- on hold for an hour with a loop of Dana white trying to sell me a franchise, no manager available - immediately after ending the call with request for a call back from management or billing - an additional attempted charge of $195 for 2 accounts I should have have (1). not my fault they signed me up 2x's that's an admin issue not a customer/ member / community problem. read more

Coach Dani is the best. UFC has been holding educational seminars for gym patrons interested and I happened to stumble upon Dani's benching seminar. She helped me get a lot more comfortable with being in the gym and moving weight when I bench. read more

I like the location and convenience of the gym as well as the workout equipment, but I would agree with some of the other reviews that their business practices when it comes to customer service/memberships isn't great, and I feel like they're shady with their pricing. I originally called because I saw online that through HMSA 365 benefits you can get a discounted membership at $44 per month. When I called to set up an appointment for this, I was told by Juan the assistant manager that they currently had a better offer through their Memorial Day sale at $39 a month. However when I went in for my appointment to set up my membership, I noticed Juan typing in my membership at the price of $49 a month. When I asked him why he was entering $49 and not $39 per month as he told me on the phone, he admitted that he did tell me $39 on the phone but that was a mistake and I had to purchase personal training at an additional cost to get this discounted price of $39, which was not told to me on the phone. When I asked if I could then just have the HMSA rate that I originally inquired about, he told me they do not honor that rate, and refused to give me any other rate than the $49 per month. Since there was only a $5 price difference I did sign up still, but felt that it was wrong that there dishonesty about the pricing, and he was upfront about his "mistake" he made and just tried to change the price without telling me. read more
