A member dropped an earbud into the stair machine. A staff member opened the machine up and got it out.
That's the best story on this page, and it tells you more about how a place is run than any number of reviews saying "friendly staff."
Unique Fitness is at 4890 Veterans Memorial Hwy in Holbrook, New York. It holds 4.7 from 447 reviews, which is a large enough sample that the number means roughly what it says. The record runs through March 2026.
The Earbud
A member in February 2026: "Five stars for the facility and the staff. My earbud dropped out of my ear and fell right into the stairs of the stair master. Ryan came right over and opened the machine up and found it right away! I've been going to gyms for years. This place is the best!"
Nobody's required to dismantle a stair climber for a lost earbud. He did it immediately.
The reviewer also has a comparison behind him: "I've been going to gyms for years." He doesn't name any, so that part is an opinion in the costume of evidence. But the earbud isn't an opinion. It happened.
The Person Who Never Liked Gyms
A member in December 2025: "I've never loved the gym, but wanted to start taking my health and fitness seriously. This gym has changed my whole perspective. Everyone who works there is so nice, the equipment selection is incredible, it's always clean, and everything is very well-maintained. I hired Jason as a personal trainer and cannot say enough amazing things about him! He pushes me out of my comfort zone and supports my goals. In a month, I'm already noticing a huge difference in my body and my strength. This gym and the trainers are worth every penny."
"I've never loved the gym."
If that's you, she's the one writing to you. She's not a convert who was always going to convert; she arrived reluctant.
Fair caveat: she's a month in. That's a promising start, not a verdict, and "worth every penny" comes with no penny count attached.
The Family Case
A member in February 2025: "Amazing facility that serves all your fitness and health needs. This place can literally serve as a family outing or even a date for husband and wife! My husband has been a member since day one at Unique. Over the years he has taken me as a guest and our children to the kids club. So last summer, I took our 9-year old son to their five year anniversary event. I not only signed myself up to become a full time member, but also our son, as AJ explained their promotions and programs."
Two useful facts hide in there. There's a kids club. And the gym was five years old as of summer 2024, so it opened around 2019.
Her husband has been a member since day one, and she joined only after years of visiting as a guest. That's a slow, tested decision rather than an impulse.
A member in April 2024: "Has everything and anything you can possibly be looking for in a full gym complex. Locker rooms look incredibly high end. Outstanding smoothie/shake bar."
A member in March 2026: "Tara, Breanna and Juan are always so helpful! Juan always makes the best smoothies and everyone's so friendly."
Two people independently mention the smoothie bar, and one names the person who makes them. That's a small thing, but two mentions across two years means it's a real part of the place, not a one-off.
