We tried to sign up one weekday morning and the place was locked. No full time attendant. Very little parking lot. Never got inside....

Dropped in while on vacation - this is a hidden gem of a gym. Fully equipped and very welcoming workout classes.

Horrible owner. Accidentally parked in “her space.” Didn’t realize it. Tiny gym with a tiny parking lot and she carved out “her space”. Should tell you what this gym bearing her name is really about (a vanity project even though it’s a third rate gym).Anyway, she stormed in while me and my son were working out and very rudely demanded we move it. Acted like we had robbed the place. We moved it, came back in, and then she began hovering around us trying to find a reason to kick us out. I grew increasingly frustrated with her behavior and she asked us to leave, which we gladly did and would never return.Also, the gym has almost no equipment and is extremely dated.

Was in town for the weekend and I am on a strict workout schedule. I chose the closest gym nearby and I am so glad with this decision. The directions were clear and Karen was very very nice. Yes there are rules as in every other gym but they are clear and simple. The gym was organized and clean. I had an amazing workout and I will definitely return next time I come back to town. Thank you for a great experience!

Gym is definitely not cleaned on a daily basis. And i would recommend getting new management having to text the owner when you enter or exit the gym is not acceptable. Way over priced for what it is I believe there is room for alot of improvement. This is most definitely not a fake review becuase you will even get kicked out the gym if your not vaccinated. DO NOT WAIST YOUR TIME OR MONEY AT KAREN DECKER FITNESS !!

So I'm looking for a new gym and I want one with showers and tanning beds. I need one close to where i will be moving, or close to my work. Since most gyms are open 24 hours, I decided to call a couple last night at 10pm when I got off work to see if they had showers. Upon my search, I call Karen Decker Fitness on the island, to see if they had showers. I got met with rudeness. This is how the call went.Call:K: this is KarenMe: how are you today ma'am?K: (rudely) who is this?Me: my name is Daphne, I'm looking for a new gym membership, but I want a gym that has showers. Do you have showers?K: (again rudely) call back during business hours and we have showers for membersMe: ok sounds goodCall endsVery rudeIf you're not open 24 hours why answer the phone and be rude?

Loved this gym. Two floors of equipment and tons of stuff to use. Never had to wait for any equipment. Free apples after your workout and the owner keeps this gym nice and clean. If I'm ever back in Port Aransas, I'll come back to this gym.

I joined Karen’s gym at the beginning of the year, and it has been great! The equipment is really impressive and Karen is an excellent personal trainer, pushing me to always work hard, but also mindful of safety and not over exerting. I have heard Karen with other patrons, local and visitors, from our high school students to winter Texans, and she is always courteous and helpful. I LOVE that she puts safety first and requires vaccination to enter, and maintains a super clean environment. And, as a local, I appreciate that she gives back to the community by volunteering in many activities. Awesome gym, awesome owner!!

Thank you Karen for providing a safe, clean, and fully equipped gym for the community of Port A to use. I’ve never had any problems using this facility and will continue to use it when we vacation here. Affordable and inviting.

I just called to get a day pass for the gym and the owner asked how old I was. I told her 42 (not my fault I sound super young lol) the owner laughed and said no you’re not. I tried to tell her I was. She told me she didn’t have time for this right now and hung up. Geeez! How do you get to workout in a cool place as Port A????

This gym is very clean and well-maintained. Owner is friendly and helpful. I appreciate that she has protocols in place to keep everyone as safe as possible during the pandemic. I highly recommend this business.
