Always Friendly employees . I personally have never found it uncomfortably busy, though there are certainly times where you’re not going to just be able to jump on whatever machine you want as there is only one of each type more or less. There is a pool, I’ve never used it , but I know it’s fairly popular with swim classes . There is also a sauna Daycare is clutch when you have to get a lift in and don’t have anyone for the kiddos, just be sure to discuss how that works with the front desk beforehand though . It’s incredibly close to where I am so the convenience for me personally is sublime right off the 17. Only recommendation is perhaps a couple other machines like a standing hamstring curl or lat raise machine. Only true frustration I’ve ever had is careful of the parking lot at times , there’s regularly a new pot hole to find. All in all your decent local gym.

I like all the variety options- there are several different types of classes, so it doesn't get boring with the same class and instructor every day.
There is also a lot of different equipment to use and I rarely have to wait to use them.
Having the pool as an option is also awesome! 😎
I also like to nutritious shakes and enjoy trying the shake of the month.
I love the communication through emails, having the app to easily sign up for classes and keep track of my account, and the MyZone tracker to see in real time how I am doing.
You all are doing everything right and your staff and trainers are incredible. Thank you!

Everyone at this gym are very friendly and helpful. Took Andrea and Courtney’s classes and love both of the classes and instructors. They know what they’re teaching and very motivating!

Great instructors in the classes I take. Andrea keeps us motivated and has a great sense of humor while teaching. She is very knowledgeable. Courtney is also an excellent instructor and keeps things fresh by having new exercises in her classes. Front desk are all helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!

This is one of my favorite gyms I’ve been a member of!! I have been a member of several gyms in the past several years due to frequent moves and can hands down say this is one of my favorites. There is a great sense of community here and I feel that I get SO much value for the cost of my membership. The trainers and class instructors are friendly, encouraging, and high energy. Some staff I’ve only taken 1-2 classes or sessions with and they still remember my name and say hello in the gym 😊 if I listed every 5-star employee I’ve interacted with, it would be nearly the whole gym! I can’t say enough good things about the group class offerings - the variety, the instructors, the body positivity and the confidence I’ve built in myself by going! The gym floor seems busy but I have never had trouble getting a treadmill or machine, even during “peak” after work hours. The seasonal challenges offered are AWESOME and it is amazing to have a nutritionist and masseuse on the team too!! If I had children, I know I would be using the childcare offered and sending my kids to swim lessons at the pool. This facility has everything!

I wanted to leave a positive review because Coastal Fitness Center is truly one of the best. The staff is incredibly kind and helpful. The personal trainers truly love what they do and it’s evident based on the relationship they form with their clients. I also wanted to leave a positive review because I noticed a negative review left by a recently fired emplyee, Rob. I was absolutely taken aback by his disgusting and baseless review. Targeting a mother who tragically lost her son in an accident that had nothing to do with coastal fitness center is tactless and quite frankly pathetic. If you’re let go from an establishment take the loss on the chin and learn from it. Don’t harrass your previous employer and their staff. I’ve been a member of coastal for a little over two years and I have nothing but good things to say about the establishment. Their gym is equipped with great machines, free weights and other fitness equipment. Their childcare is top notch and one of the reasons I fell in love with CFC. I’ve made so many friendships with other members and staff since joining in 2022. This place is truly like family. All that to say, please do not let one negative review left by a recently fired employee keep you from giving Coastal Fitness Center a try. It might just change your life in the best way.

I am 78 years old and know that the physical exercise I am getting is beneficial to me.
I am especially grateful to Ashley for paying attention to everyone in her classes
It is important to me to be doing the exercises properly and I have to watch her closely in order to do that. She makes sure she is visible to me and always gives us an alternative to an exercise that we are not yet able to achieve. Everyone is very friendly and also encouraging. I hope to achieve my goals eventually, but for now I am happy to know I am working to better my health! Thanks

I kept having issues with the childcare. Several times, the same lady was kissing my baby after telling her not to. On other occasions, the staff would be on their phone when I would go to pick my son up. Very disappointed because you want to be able to trust people. They are friendly, but just not knowledgeable on childcare. After two months, I will not be bringing my son back.

Our fitness center for years now. Glad to be back.
Andrea and I drive 32 miles round trip to use your gym. Indoor pool, fitness equipment, family swim are our favorites.

I want to add to my review in defense of this gym. Some of the negative reviews are very off base. Some are plain long winded BS.
People wipe down the equipment all the time. Since the pandemic, I have changed to wiping before I use it. Seems to be a national trend.
Guests come to work out, some social interaction is seen but it’s never a problem. Many have made friends here.
Rules are followed by majority.
The staff is friendly.
Come find out for yourself!

“I began my journey at CFC in mid 2022. I was scared, because I had lost confidence in myself to succeed in changing and getting healthy. I was overwhelmed because I didn’t know where to start or what to do.
I decided to get a trainer to help me and guide me. Let me tell you, I got so much more than that!
Logan was my first trainer at CFS and really jump started my transformation by using skills I already had and teaching me ones I did not in order to gain confidence to keep pushing. Having a good trainer really helped me be accountable and committed.
I did transformation challenge in 2023 and went all in!
The whole team at CFS was so helpful and kind. Logan, Katie, Maggie!
In 2024 I started working with Max as my trainer. She has helped me push further and gain strength that’s allowed me to transform to where I am today. She pushed me forward physically and mentally. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and very good at her job. And she’s also very fun to be around.
So down to earth!
I’ve always said CFS is a place you can feel free to be yourself and feel accepted wherever you are on your health journey. CFS is not just a gym for me nor is Max just a trainer. They have become part of my wellness family and I am so grateful to have such a good one!

2/15/2025: Tito, the owner, sought me out and we had a discussion about the issues in the facility. As stated below, many of the issues fall on individuals who lack self discipline to govern themselves accordingly in a public space. A clear understanding was established that all people cannot be realistically monitored at all times. At the same time, businesses can thrive on positive feedback as well as negative; a self respecting business owner should absolutely feel enraged that there are people actively defying established policies and hindering the experience of others in their facility. There is nothing wrong with striving for a high standard and setting certain expectations of behavior for patrons. While these issues are universal and persist between like facilities, that does not serve as an excuse to allow it simply because others let it fall through the cracks.

Bringing these issues to light is also important to allow the public to make informed decisions; a business with nothing but generic positive reviews is infinitely more suspicious than a moderately reviewed facility that makes light of positive and negative aspects. No environment is perfect, and it would be inappropriate to pretend that issues do not exist. There are many things the facility does right, but it's important to note that there are people who actively abuse the facility and ignore basic etiquette.

This review was not meant to be a personal attack, rather it's intended to aid potential customers in making informed decisions and hopefully lay the foundation for the "bad eggs" to face appropriate consequences.

That being said, a word of caution to the owners: targeting less than perfect reviews as low hanging fruit because it's easier than holding known troublemakers accountable is in no way a good method of maintaining a positive reputation as a business. Seeing someone acting against policy and telling them to stop or face the consequences is much easier than the amount of effort and coordination it took to seek me out as an individual.

Compromise and problem solving should not be limited to behind closed door methods to highlight positive aspects while ignoring the negative. If we can have civil and productive conversations about perceptions and expectations, then it is entirely possible or have conversations with non-cooperative individuals.

(Original) This place is more of a lounge than a fitness center. More often than not you're going to find people lingering on their phones or chatting in various cliques while using equipment as a seating arrangement rather than actual work. There are people who routinely come just to sit/lie on equipment to watch TV..

Signage and facility "rules" exist, but there's virtually no adherence to them; to the point that anyone trying to abide by facility rules will end up running into trouble with everyone else around them taking up space, using equipment as tables and chairs, and refusing to sanitize monopolized equipment.

Nearly all of the patrons don't understand, or abide by, simple gym etiquette, and nobody is really around, trainers included, to teach anyone how to behave in a public setting. Attempting to get exercise is more or less a free for all.

Personal sanitizer is a must because I've rarely seen anyone wash their hands in the bathroom or wipe equipment down after use.

For the veteran crowd, the old owners claimed military support but that seems only reserved for the retired, medically or otherwise. When I signed up the girl at the counter asked if I was military, I responded with "veteran" and her response was, "so no?" and that was the end of the conversation. Something to consider when evaluating cost.

Your money is best served elsewhere or in a home gym set up if you are serious about your own personal health and development.

Way to much chlorine used in pool! causing nasal congestion, skin irritation and red spots on skin! "Bullies" both male and females lacking kindness and understanding in communication in pool lanes, especial when 2 people are to share a lane by using a single lane (pool lane 3 & 4). both people sharing a pool lane should realize that it may change the training for that day due to the stroke style, being limited to freestyle. so the don't hit each other as the pass by. Kids dipper's full of pooh in dressing room floor. such a lack of responsibility of users of this facility!

Coastal Fitness has a wide variety of classes and a very nice pool. But it has a very small dressing room with only three showers and six bathroom stalls, which are used by modest dressers making those who need a toilet or shower waiting to use them. There is no separate bathroom for children, so mothers bring all children (regardless of age) into the women's locker room. It can get very crowded and noisy, especially with children running around opening lockers and taking up the very limited bench space. Parking is also limited and you might have to circle several times to find a spot on popular mornings.

But the staff is extremely friendly and most instructors are very good. I especially enjoy some of the water aerobic classes.

Marie is the bomb! She allows each person to work within the boundaries of their capabilities without pushing them to go beyond and risk injury. Because of that, when I started over a year ago, I couldn't even do a sit up. Now, I've lost a ton of inches and am killing it in the class! There's a reason why her class is always full!

The gym equipment is extremely old, outdated, and difficult to operate. I was shocked to finally learn when I went to try to operate the equipment. We’ve been working out in gyms often and I just didn’t look before we agreed to a membership. This equipment has probably been in that facility for 20 years. It’s ridiculously outdated.

Went there today to get a tour of this facility. When I walked in, there was no one to greet me. The one person that was behind the desk said “hey I don’t work here” and walked off. Person that did work there and was supposed to be behind the front desk didn’t even seem like he wanted to be there let alone didn’t even seem like he wanted to give me a tour. The staff member didn’t even ask my name, greet me , asked me any questions to get to know me to see what I’d like to do in the gym, Nothing. It was almost if I was bothering him. He did not introduced himself asked me what I wanted. I had to ask him for a tour. First impression gave me that the customers are not their top priority or new income customers are not their top priority. They make you sign a waiver just to get a tour weird but okay. When I was given a tour, staff member showed me one side of the weights and said this is our new equipment. The equipment was chipped, rusted , tears in the seats. When looking up the equipment on the Internet. It was five years ago’s models for that brand. They told me that the other equipment in the gym is the same equipment they had since they opened up years and years ago. So does not seem like the gym keeps their equipment updated. But they charge you twice a year for equipment, maintenance and upkeep but it doesn’t seem like they use the money for upkeep or to give you new equipment or updated equipment. Very crowded!! They do have a pool, and is the only gym in the area that does have a pool. No I wouldn’t swim in the pool. It looks like I need some major TLC. Very dark in there gloomy looking and doesn’t look like it’s very well-kept or clean. If you have kids, it’s very expensive to have them in their kids care. so it’s not really good for families that have more than one kid because the kids care price will be more than your membership. Overall experience of a tour at this facility was very very bad. Probably the worst experience in any gym I’ve ever been to the last 30 years. The manager walked right by me and didn’t even say hello. None of the other staff members or trainers as I walked by them even greeted me or said hi or anything very unfriendly Place at least for someone else trying to possibly be a member. Maybe they’re only nice to people that are already members, I do not know. Very crowded equipment. Now they’re cardio Equipment wasn’t bad. It was decent. They did show me a room that’s for classes but didn’t even tell me about any of the classes or anything. They just told me there’s classes in there and I could use the room between class schedule times. Did not get any other information than that. All in all does not seem like a community friendly facility. Definitely do not seem to welcome new incoming people that well. I did check out two other gyms Axis and Rising Tide Fitness. I did have a much much better experience at both of those. I end up choosing Rising tide Fitness out of three. I hope this helps people make a right decision in finding a gym.

Coastal Fitness is an outstanding facility. It has everything you need for fitness training to hardcore bodybuilding or powerlifting. The equipment is top shelf and there is a wide variety of free weights, dumbbells and machines. The staff is friendly and they keep the facility spotless. Oh, and there's a pool :-).

CFC has great staff, a variety of workout options, reasonable hours, and an indoor pool. Their group fitness classes probably has the best music to get you moving. Oh, and the price is reasonable considering everything the gym has to offer.

I’ve really fallen in love with all the trainers with whom I regularly interact. They are so kind, patient, and informative, and going to classes and small group trainings is always a joy. The challenge programs have been a god-send in my journey towards a healthier life. I actually look forward to going to the gym several times a week. The nutritionist, Maggie, is also the biggest sweetheart, and she really puts in the effort and time to get you on track with your nutrition. The equipment is nice, and the gym as a whole is clean. The reason I even considered this gym in the first place was for the heated pool, which did not disappoint. My one and only gripe is the price of everything, but I guess you get what you pay for, and they gotta pay the bills ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This place has pretty much anything you could ask for in a gym (aside from a kickboxing class, which I am DYING FOR! ADD THE KICKBOXING CLASS!!)

I am 76 and have much trouble with arthritis, disc and joint degeneration and nerve damage from diabetes. Last fall while in NC, I tried pool aerobics and saw a great improvement so when I returned to NC in Feb, I started going to all the pool classes and felt healthier and was loosing weight too. I met with a nutritionist there, Maggie, and started a low carb diet and portion control. I met with a personal trainer, Max, and hired her to help me in the gym. In 2 months I lost 16 lbs and felt amazing. Max was an awesome trainer and easy to talk to. She adjusted the program around my disabilities, back and joint problems plus my age. I now get in and out of cars easier, go up steps with confidence, walk better and am loosing fat and building muscle. I found everyone at Coastal to be helpful, courteous, respectful, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I highly recommend Coastal. Once back in NC, I look forward to working with Max again and attending the aerobics classes. Each class is different and each instructor has a special technique.

Dawn Shephard is an excellent water aerobic instructor. She gives clear instructions with smooth transitions. She offers three different levels of difficulty for each exercise. Music appropriate for class participants. She's funny and respectful to everyone, always thanking members upon leaving class. Really love her class. Wish she taught more water classes.

Great location, easy to get a quick workout in. Classes, weights, cardio, pool, personal trainers. It's a smaller gym and very busy in the mornings. If you get in and find what you want to do awesome. If you go and it's too busy you just have to figure out a different routine. But go for it and you can get your workout in.
You have to sign up to use the pool. Make sure there is a lane available.
You can get a day pass to try out the gym as well.

Best gym in Hampstead / Surf City area. The setup is a perfect blend of a cardio, free weights, cables, machines, and turf. Good selection for machines and none feel out of place / useless. There are extra activities offered such as spin class available; all instructed by enthusiastic people. The staff is both caring and supportive doing a superb job at creating a positive atmosphere. Locker room amenities include showers with soap, and a very nice sauna. The swimming pool is awesome Ive heard (I do not swim) The regulars here are all nice and supportive, perfect place for beginners or long time gym goers. All in all this is the 5th gym I’ve ever been to and it’s worth every dollar $. You won’t be disappointed.

I love Coastal! The group classes are amazing and fun! I love Logan and Dawn’s classes. They know their clients and work hard to are sure we are all getting the motivation and help when needed.
Logan’s classes are always a blast! Whether is HITT, Tabata, Cardio, or Zumba- Logan brings the fun and laughs and leaves you exhausted and sweaty by the end.
I recently took my first spin class in over 5 years. I was so nervous after a bad experience elsewhere with spin. Dawn was the instructor and it was one of the best cardio workouts I’ve had in a long time. She was motivating and fun and left me looking forward to class next week!

My first experience at Coastal was for Dawn Nelson’s Yoga Faith class. I was very happy to find out that Coastal is a Silver Sneakers location. I talked to Dawn about how not feel 70 years old. I signed up with her as my personal trainer and have been so, so pleased with every session we have. Dawn is clued into working with an “older” woman and my sessions are so geared to what I can do and what I need. As she makes me stronger with each session and tells me “it will only get better” I am very pleased with her knowledge and how it is helping me maybe not feel so 70. I will say on another topic that some of the areas of the gym are not senior friendly…treadmills are so close together it can be hazardous. I think overall the gym needs to be bigger to accommodate your members.
