However, some users have noted issues such as the temperature of the pool water being cold for babies and the need for maintenance in certain areas, like changing rooms and locker conditions.

Kilkeel Leisure Centre: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I was only on the promenade aroud Lesure Centre, but great weather for morning walk.
Fantastic experience: I felt soooo leisurely. would.
Fantastic experience: Went here in recommendation from my brother, as Newry Pool is closed AGAIN. Took my 18 month old by myself for her first swim. The staff were wonderful, especially Niamh, who helped me with great safety advice. The building is showing signs of it's age, but it was spotlessly clean and a very safe environment for babies. I didn't get to use the steam room this time, but I'll definitely be back. The receptionist was lovely too.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, I go for swimming & sauna and never had an issue.
Fantastic experience:
Positive experience: The swimming pool is a bit wet for my liking
Negative experience: Never go to this pool, they don’t let you run, the showers are cold, receptionist is dead on tho, they don’t let you cannon ball, changing rooms are dirty with hair all over them, toilets stink,
Negative experience: Lovely receptionist. We weren’t informed North Korea’s border police were being trained in this facility so if you have any notion of an enjoyable experience you’ll soon be whistled at and told where to go
Negative experience: This place didn’t let us jump in, my freind Oliver was very sad and cried when the mean took his friends goggles. The woman who told my large freind David to get out of the hot tub was having to much fun on her walky talky, she had more fun than all of the people I went with
Negative experience: I am absolutely disgusted with this swimming pool - they are dead craic. If u want ur child to have a bad time go to this pool. They don’t let you jump in or have any fun. Do not go to this swimming pool it is awful
Negative experience: Absolute Disgrace, came with a youth group and they may as well have got screamed at for smiling in the pool, one lady claimed we were unable to use any of the health suites despite having paid for their use and then further claimed we hadn’t even covered all of the campers payments. A complete Joke!!!!! The only saving grace of this place is the receptionist who could not have been nicer, despite the rest of the staff acting like spoilt brats.

Positive experience: Pool was a bit disappointing only 1m deep, pool is a bit cold for young babies. Changing rooms are ok however they are looking very "tired" lockers were I poor condition, doors drooping and a lot of them broken. However staff in the place were great they were friendly and helpful and the Life guards were alert and keeping watch constantly and the facilities were clean and tidy, I think the Newry, Mourne and Down council need to give this place a revamp
