My favorite place to work out. The fitness area and machines are mostly complete, lacking leg weights. But beyond that? The best place to spend your time

As far a community centers go, this one has it all. We drove past this place for 2 years before checking it outthat was a mistake!
Ice hockey, b-ball, v-ball, raquet ball, weights, indoor track, spin, olympic pool plus a recreational pool and a skate park out back.
State Employees get a discount but if you are a disabled veteran, bring in your VA award letter. Not sure about any levels of discounts at different disability levels, but 100% gets free membership here and all the community centers!
*if you want a good yoga class though, check out "Full Circle Yoga - Santa Fe"response / report this review -

Great hockey rink! Nice concessions! The pool looks wonderful. Wish we had swam after our hockey games.

I really enjoy the fitness center here. The weight room is a good size and has some decent equipment. Not necessarily for heavy iron as in powerlifting. But still there is a reasonable amount of weight hanging around. Lots of cardio equipment and the track is nice as well. I also use the hot tub at times and it's usually pretty hot and clean. Nice variety of Fitness classes as well.

One of the finest community centers I've ever been to. Ice rink, pool, wadering river with high water slide, exercise equipment area, weights, indoor track, basketball and racquetball, dance room; all top quality.
The ice rink has some of the best ice on the nation.response / report this review -

Kid lane. Try to enter some days walk out or sit in bleachers world gets more crowded the older you get.. kids club after school gets own basketballs yet still uses the freebees. Lost shirt there wasn't in lost in found, or stolen. Had it near me at all times. Closes very early. About (500?) Family pass. People get confused about how early it closes, and when. Closes on holidays. Limited staff 50 employees? Was going to get shower multiple occasions and always bad timing. Website is funny, and the areana is used by hockey and figure skaters private sessions something about being early and setting up cones for extra long (+2hr). Tired of new mexico all round the block..

I adore the Center! I do wish people were more considerate. I also wish people would wipe their machines after. But that's some Santa Feans, not the center. I would give 10 stars if I could.

Great place to take the family for a bit of fun. Family pool is great but a little crowded. Not in any way the facilities fault Santa Fe is growing and soon its need for fun places for families will have to be addressed. Always enjoy going here.

I use the lap pool frequently. It is a nice pool and I usually can find an empty lane without a problem. However, lately I have developed a minor rash on my arms and legs that may be water-quality related. I am going to avoid swimming for a few days. I am also going to start using special lotion designed to help protect skin while swimming. I hope the water is being monitored and treated properly.
My biggest complaint is that the locker room facility seems small and often crowded. It can be very noisy if you have a bunch of kids in there. Some people leave their locks on the lockers, meaning half the lockers are always unavailable. Some of these locks may be from the 1990s, or from whenever the building was built.
I don't use the kiddie pool, but the kiddie pool seems to be much more popular than the lap pool, even though it is a much smaller pool. In Flagstaff, where I used to live, the municipal pool was more similar to the kiddie pool, with slides and river-like layout, but it was considerably bigger than the Chavez kiddie pool, occupying most of the swim building. The Flagstaff municipal swim facility had only a relatively small lap pool, probably because the nearby university had an Olympic size lap pool. My feeling is that Chavez should have a bigger kiddie pool. The kiddie pool should also be open more hours. It seems to only be open for two or three hours at a time, with breaks of up to an hour or two in between. Perhaps they have to close it repeatedly during the day to allow for the water to be properly filtered.
The Chavez Center has many other facilities that I have not used, like an ice rink and basketball court. It probably deserves another star for those.response / report this review -

We come all the way up from Albuquerque to enjoy the lazy river and waterslide at the swimming pool AND the ice rink! The gym is probably fun, too, but I've never tried it. Very reasonably priced. The rental ice skates are in great condition.

Great place for so many things to do. Huge pool, I love swimming. Never used the ice rink nor the lazy river. Great classes! Bathrooms are poorly drained so I don't like them. They feel gross, quick shower after swimming, very quick.
