Amenities offered at Onelife

Onelife gyms are beautiful places to work out. Plus, their locations are stocked full of amenities that their nearby competitors can't keep up with. Here's what we gathered:

  • 83% of their locations have a sauna—we count 38 of 46 gyms.
  • 76% of their gyms have childcare. That's a solid 35 locations.
  • 70% of their locations have a pool. That's 32 of their 46 total gyms. 
  • 3 locations also have pickleball! The popular sport is hard to find at gyms.
  • 2 of their gyms have tennis, too. This amenity is normally only available at country/luxury gyms.

And as we would expect from this gym chain, members also get access to standard offerings like:

  • Free weights with benches 
  • Cardio machines (ellipticals, stair-masters, treadmills)
  • Strength machines of various sorts

However, you won't find be able to work out 24-hours-a-day here, or play racquetball.

Here's what we love about Onelife

We have a real appreciation for aesthetically pleasing and well-kept gyms. Could it be that some Onelife gyms have a boutique feel? When you mix that with the fact that they’re among the most well-equipped gym chains available, you’ve got the perfect formula for success. Keep reading to discover what makes us excited about Onelife.

  • Parents can take advantage of Onelife's amazing facilities, as 35 out of their 46 gyms provide childcare and daycare services. Pro tip: fit in your workout while they enjoy their playtime!

  • Pickleball for the win! Within Charlotte, only 3 out of 46 clubs offer this fantastic amenity, making it unavailable through any other providers in the area.

  • You can also enjoy basketball, steam rooms, tennis, hot tubs, tanning, and massage services, although these amenities are only offered at select locations.

Here are the things we wish Onelife would improve

Despite Onelife's extensive range of amenities and services, there are still a few additions we would love to see from this gym chain.

  • We're big fans of the diverse offerings (basketball, steam rooms, tennis courts, hot tubs, tanning facilities, and massage services)—however, it's essential that more of their gyms feature these amenities, rather than just a few select locations. Check out the bottom of the page to locate your nearest Onelife gym and discover the options available to you.

  • Only one of their locations operates around the clock! With the wide range of amenities offered, having a 24-hour option would be an excellent addition.

  • Onelife could expand its offerings to regions such as the Midwest, South, and West. Their aesthetic, vibe, approach, and range of amenities would be valuable enhancements beyond just Georgia and Virginia.

How much does it cost to join Onelife?

The typical monthly fee for an entry-level Onelife membership hovers around $44.99, but can vary widely from $24.99 to $79.99 depending on the region. This pricing positions Onelife within the mid-tier gym market, which aligns with the amenities they provide. Let's examine three specific locations for a clearer picture of the options available: 

  • Austell, Georgia - Basic membership at $24.99 with a $29 joining fee; Premier membership at $34.99 with a $1 joining fee
  • Carrollton, Georgia - Basic membership priced at $29.99 with a $59 joining fee; Premier membership for $39.99 with a $29 joining fee
  • Capitol Hill, Washington DC - Basic membership at $79.99 with a $79 joining fee; Premier membership for $89.99 with a $29 joining fee 

Both Basic and Premier memberships grant access to multiple clubs, unlimited group training, and use of the cycle studio, turf, and additional amenities. Premier members enjoy towel service and hydromassage, where available, though offerings may vary by location. 

You can save $3 with an ACH billing option directly from your bank, and when you join, you'll need to pay your first month's dues. During the sign-up process, you can also add members to your plan at the same monthly rate for anyone aged 12 and up, or for an additional $14.99, you can opt for Kids Club access for ages 0 to 11. 

Overall, these mid-tier pricing options, averaging around $39, are competitive with similar offerings from other gyms—aside from the notably high rate at Capitol Hill. If a nearby Onelife gym features amenities like a pool, sauna, turf, and unlimited group fitness classes, you're likely getting an excellent deal.

  • We are not impressed that the annual fee is not disclosed during the checkout process, nor is it mentioned on the initial pricing page. According to our findings, the fee ranges from $39 to $49, based on your location.
  • The initiation fees vary between $29 and $79 based on the location. Residents in Washington DC, particularly in Capitol Hill, are likely to pay the higher end of that range.
  • Gym prices got you stressed out?ย Start with a free trial instead.

Final thoughts โ€” Is worth it?

Onelife Fitness stands out as a meticulously designed, well-rounded gym chain filled with excellent amenities. Residents of Washington DC and the surrounding areas now have access to a fantastic local fitness option, boasting 46 clubs that have expanded down into Georgia. These gyms feature an inviting atmosphere, ample space, and a thoughtful design that gives the impression of luxury without the high price. Members clearly appreciate what Onelife has to offer, as evidenced by an impressive average Google rating of 4.12 across all locations, with many praising the "really cool atmosphere/space." 

In terms of amenities, around 65% of their gyms offer features such as pools, saunas, and turf areas. Parents will be pleased to know that childcare services are available in 35 of their facilities, a rarity in the fitness industry today. This characteristic alone adds significant value for many families considering membership. Several locations also boast unique offerings such as cardio cinema, Olympic lifting platforms, massage services, and basketball courts—all of which are attractive features for potential members. 

Even premium activities typically found in luxury country clubs, like pickleball, tennis, and squash, are available at a select few gyms. Overall, we appreciate their robust amenities, though it’s worth noting that none of the locations provide towel service, racquetball, or operate 24 hours a day. If these features are a priority for you, it might be worth exploring other options. 

With membership prices ranging from $24.99 to $39.99 (plus $79.99 for Capitol Hill), Onelife Fitness holds a unique position in Washington DC's gym market with no comparable challengers. While other chains like Gold's, Equinox, and VIDA exist, they can’t match the overall value that Onelife provides. Even in nearby Maryland, Planet Fitness and LA Fitness fall short in comparison. In conclusion, the gymscompared team firmly believes that Onelife Fitness is a worthwhile investment!
