It's clean and everyone is friendly. My family goes here almost every day to exercise. It's nice to have a program that takes care of your child while you exercise.

The JCC is a premier community center situated in Irvine, CA. There’s nothing like it quite frankly. The sports facility offers a world class fitness center and gymnasium. There’s an olympic sized swimming pool and jacuzzi. If you’re seeking an immaculate, family friendly community center the JCC will not only meet, but will exceed your expectations. All are welcome and that is very evident.

Canceled my membership back during Covid. Realized two years later the dues continued on my account. I reached out via phone and email to the Membership Group Melanie and Heather and no response, I would imagine if the call was regarding a new membership they would have called me back immediately, two months later I then elevated the situation to the CFO Lee Tringali and he was incredibly rude on the phone stating it was my fault and that I should hire a better book keeper placing the blame on me. He complained that if he were to honor a return for their error that it would be thousands of dollars, I mentioned the monies were not their to begin with. No response to this thus far.

I came to watch my boys' basketball game there the other day, and i was disturbed by the political decision to place a row of Zionist Isreali flags out front of the main entrance. For a community center to support a bloodshed state built on illegal interment (and daily brutilization) of the Palestinians who've lived there for generations is uncalled for. This community center is open to the public and should not make a political statement. If they insist of having a voice they should just support peace and justice for all and make it known via billboards and/or signage inside or out of their building.

I was taken on a tour of the facility by Heather, very impressive place. Clean and modern inside and out. Pool area is great with plenty of opportunity to swim as their hours are so good. Heather was great friendly with great customer service.My wife and I had no hesitation in signing up.

I don't understand how we pay $80 a month to have limited access to the courts. children's camp, youth league on sundays, etc.? Isn't the point of having a membership being able to actually use the facilities? Makes zero sense. Also staff is not the most polite when checking in guests.

Having our family join was the worst idea I've ever had. This place is awful. The staff the school the enrichments. All of it. Stay away as far as possible. The turn over rate is high, every year they hire new preschool teachers and a entire new staff like 15 new people! My kids hate the enrichments. Everything is outdated and they make you pay for the gym. I was paying $3,500 a month for preschool, enrichments for two kids and the gym membership. That doesn't even include everyday! And that's not plus days. This place is truly unbearable. I hope this will save a family from joining! They nickel and dime everything. For $1,800 a month for preschool doesn't even include lunch! That is $7 a day and that's not a full day either! They have to be kidding me. Preschool is $24k a year 9-3:30 and they hire first time teachers. Stay far from this place!

Do not go to the cafe at this center. I ordered a smoothie and had to wait for about 25 minutes and watch other people get their smoothies before me even though I ordered mine first. After all this they still gave me the wrong flavor. And the smoothie was bland and tasteless. La Fitness betta.

I have been calling for over two weeks trying to get through to someone. I have left massages for Hillary and Oscar as well spoke to both receptionists. It's concerning when a phone call can't be returned over that long of a period. Makes me concerned if my kids were actually going there.

I just joined the J with my two year old daughter, and I am so looking forward to immersing myself in all of the activities, volunteering, and educational programs. I moved here from LA, and needed to find the perfect community for myself and my Little one. What would be better than the Jewish community center? We're Jewish... & members of the community. Pretty simple. The facility is nice, clean, and safe. The staff is lovely from the security & front desk to upper management & the board members. We are so happy and grateful to be here, and I look forward to creating lovely memories here with my little one and meeting other members of the Merage JCC mishpucha.

We were able to experience their location because my kids had a swim meet there, and we had no complaints. This facility was awesome! So well maintained, nice staff, and a good layout to access various areas. Their pool was beautiful and the very clean as well. They enforce COVID restrictions, which I appreciated because it made me feel safer. There was more than enough parking available, and the other facilities we could view from the exterior looked top of the line!

This is one of the best kept secrets in Orange County. Their preschool is top notch, the teachers and staff are absolutely phenomenal, the gym is LOADED with fun equipment and classes and it's so nice to meet other Jewish people in OC. If your looking for a wonderful community to be a part of, look no further!
