Spacious, modern, clean facility with three pools, saunas, a large gym with many options, child care available, personal training available, and many fitness and health classes offered.

Great group lessons
Great swimming pools
There are numerous exercise classes for people at every level. The instructors are well trained and high energy. I find that the other members of the Y are very friendly.
Always clean, activities well organized.
Clean; lots of mat Pilates; very good instructors; friendly staff ; more upscale clientele than some other clubs, even YMCAs; great hours; good, diverse equipment; I love this gym. Best YMCA ever!!
However:
Room for improvement: 1. There should be a way to communicate with an instructor via corporate email ( for example, the Atlantic Club in Redbank has this capability); 2. Yoga teachers should project their voices and turn down music, as those studios are quite large
3. Lights should be lowered more during yoga classes - there is no yoga-appropriate ambience; 4. The studios are too bright-excessive sunlight is bad for macular degeneration, cataracts, and for the skin and therefore, you need better shades; 5. I would like more core strength classes ; 6. It would be nice to see a bank of coin-locking mini-lockers on the fitness center floor. This is only MY wish list. Thank you
Group exercise, swimming lessons for kids
Love the facility : ) It has a lot of great equipment and the environment is a positive and friendly one. Looking forward to taking advantage of the classes soon too!
The facility is large, modern and clean. The hours are vast from early morning to late at night allowing for good access. The large group exercise rooms are great for yoga with nice floors and big windows. Unlimited classes make the membership cost worth it. When our children were little we spent many winter days at the family pool on the big slide and both my children took swimming, dance and martial arts training at the Somerset Hills YMCA. Because my son became involved in the Y swim team he broke several high school swim team records and went on to swim in college. I also appreciate the convenient donation programs found in the front foyer and guest speakers and workshops. Saturdays in Motion is also a great program for both participants and volunteers.
The hours of operation are excellent every day.
The staff at the front desk every weekday morning is fantastic. Liz and Karen are outstanding representatives of YMCA.
The bathrooms are kept reasonably clean.
I like that the gymnasium was given a fresh coat of paint within the past 2-3 weeks. It looks much nicer and clean.
Location ..! Spacious.! Well manner staff/ Coaches.., Environment so friendly.. very convenient facilities…
So far great
I have been a member of the Y in Somerset Hills for more than 30 years. My family and i have grown with the Y from one indoor pool and a small room of weight machines to the magnificent facility it is today. i even frequented the annex at Riverwallk regularly when it was open. It offers everything i need for my workouts and is conveniently located near my home. Also, the staff is very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you for all you do for the community.
All the classes and teachers
Love the water exercise, egym and classes.
However, for those seniors with Medicare advantage, the Y offers minimal discounts. The Y should provide very low cost fees for seniors.
YMCA is very clean new. I was welcomed at the door.
A truly great place. Welcoming and clean. Great class offerings. Love the egym! Such a gem. Thank you
Excellent experience, we like the full range of exercise equipment in a safe, well-run setting.
We wish that you recognized "silver Sneakers" payments.
