The Scene
Located in the bottom of Ian Schrager's white palace, the Delano's gym attracts a clientele of hard-bodied South Beach players pumping up for a night at the clubs. Keep an eye out for incognito celebs: Kevin Bacon, Harrison Ford and Claudia Schiffer are just a few who've stayed at the Delano and roamed the facilities.
The Workout
Equipment includes an advanced free-weight system, life cycles and treadmills, all surrounded by wall-to-wall mirrors so the buff and the beautiful can admire themselves while working out. Personal trainers will design a custom workout plan for you. And let's face it, if you can't achieve serenity through a tai chi or sunset yoga class on the Delano's private beach, then where are you going to find it? Other classes include hydro-power pool workouts, cardio jam, kickboxing, flat abs, Pilates and flex and point sessions.

What a joke. The managers change regularly and they never follow through with promises made. I tried to cancel the membership and 3 months later they are still billing me. This place is a rip off. Don't bother. It will only be more of a hassle than it's worth.

This gym has terrible service, unreliable instructors and defective equipment. I went to one class where the teacher was late, one where the stereo system was broken and one that never occurred at all with no reason given. Save your money and go elsewhere.

I have been trying to get refund from this gym for four months! The contract says I am due a refund (tried the gym and cancelled within the 10-day trial period); the membership advisor promised a refund in writing; I have been reassured repeatedly that I am due a refund by the Miami staff, who tell me it is a problem with the New York corporate office. Well the NY people have never once returned a phone call. 12 calls to date. The head of accounting is never there or -- as one receptionist told me -- "overwhelmed." Worse, whoever answers the phone (some snippy, rude, attitude guy) in New York told me to stop calling -- "we'll get to your refund when we can. Nothing I can do." So, if you are considering joining, just keep in mind thee people are not to be trusted with your money or credit card money. Great gym if you are a masochistic bill collector, but not so good for everyone else. Avoid.
