The club recently underwent a $20 million renovation, including updated locker rooms and a new 12,000-square-foot fitness atrium. Members can enjoy various group exercise classes, such as yoga and HIIT, all free of charge. The club boasts two swimming pools, as well as fitness equipment like stair climbers, treadmills, weight machines, and free weights. The Body Pump classes are led by outstanding instructors. The gym is clean and the pool is excellent. Beyond traditional fitness, Bay Club Santa Clara has a strong focus on social and family programming. It features multiple sports courts for activities like basketball, volleyball, pickleball, and squash. The club also offers summer camp for children. The staff is always friendly and the overall vibe is relaxed and comfortable.
The Bay Club has a lot of equipment and classes. I enjoy working out at Bay Club.
I just want to managers to know that the women’s locker room (showers, steam room, lounge area, drinking fountain) are very dirty and sometimes disgusting. Bay Club should spend more effort cleaning up the facility!
Update 7/14/26: The women’s dressing room is now much cleaner, so I highly recommend the Bay Club!
Facilities are nice and clean, and the equipment is diverse and useful for majority of use cases. The main issue is machines that have high traffic, across any gym, are one of a kind here. Leg extension, pec deck, and others are consistently in use no matter the hour while other equipment collects dust. At this price point it is way too much of a hindrance. Could use some AC as well. I think parking issues are a bit overstated, I believe there’s two lots and I’ve not had issues coming at non peak hours.
Do not have all the equipment i find at other bay clubs. No twist weight machines for abs. No premium machines for chest. Old machines in bad condition compared to other gyms. Also not enough elliptical machines. only 4. They have some cardio machines that no one uses ever occupying the space when all elipticalls are always taken.
