Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Beautiful outdoor olympic pool on banks of lake with lawn areas but poorly managed. Weve stopped on our travels a few times but hours sporadic and staff unfriendly. Too many rules for children and the lifesavers stood so close our kids felt embarrassed to talk to each other. Swimming lanes are always up and you get in trouble if you touch them so not that fun for families to play. Its quite expensive as well. Probably fine for rehabiilitation or structured kid swimming lesson or fitness. Not great for Sunday afternoon fun. Hope it gets new management as its a great tourist asset for the town.

Arrived at 10 am at the advertised opening time, only to be told by a poor staff member that the duty member hadn't turned up. Another staff member was called in to cover for the no-show duty staff member, who was most apologetic.
Despite opening 1/2 hour late, we still had a great time.
Very clean but the roof on the inside does need re-doing as there is mould growing.
Great that the pool is open on a long weekend.

This is a lovely pool complex, and the toddler pool has a super-exciting indoor slide for young children. The hydro-bath also looks really relaxing for older folk and those with arthritis. And there's a decent indoor lap pool, as well as a big outdoor pool. However, my kids are always attracted to the big outdoor water slide, which they can see from the information centre next door. Unfortunately, it hasn't worked for years.

Nothing worse than detouring off the Hume hwy for a swim, only to be confronted by inflexible customer service staff demanding $10 minimum Eftpos spend. Rip off.
I swim at YMCA's in Wadonga, Echuca, Shepp, Horsham, everywhere, and all have great pools and flexible customer service.
As a rep I need to put the swims on my work CCard to claim them, and Benalla is always a pain, and totally inflexible. I'm sure one customer every month paying for a swim on Eftpos wouldn't hurt.
Need to learn better customer service skills.

What I love about this centre is the diversity of pools. A big outside 50 metre pool open over the summer and year round heated indoor 25 metre pool, hydrotherapy pool and young children's play pool.
There is a small gym available and numerous classes including water aerobics, yoga etc.
If you have a membership everything is included and gives you access to YMCA facilities in other places. Great value.

I enjoy the pool. Hydrotherapy pool is great when there isn't kids splashing you as they sometimes do. The lap pool is a good size for an indoor pool. I can't wait to use the outdoor pool again once the weather warms up

Very conveniently located, right next to the lake on the edge of town. There are 2 main pools (indoor and outdoor) a kiddies pool and hydra-therapy pool. The $5 admission gives all day access. The building itself could do with a freshen up but the pools are very clean and inviting and the staff (based on the lady I dealt with) are very pleasant.

Benalla has such a great pool. A large indoor lap pool, an outdoor poole, a hydrotherapy pool and a kids pool with slide. They even inflated an bouncy obstacle course for the kids in the outdoor pool before Christmas.
