Good except for the fireworks debris that fell on our boat Saturday evening.
Marina Response:
Jim,
We’re very sorry to hear this. I did a bit of digging to figure out the who, what, and why behind the fireworks. Turns out, there was a wedding at PIER 22 that night, and some members of the wedding party set them off before the restaurant staff could intervene. Fireworks aren’t allowed, and the party did not have permission to do so. We hope the actions of others won’t affect our relationship.by Steve L. - Verified user on Apr 07, 2026
Twin Dolphins staff were helpful, clear in their directions, and supportive accessing Marina resources.

Very nice Marina with floating docks. One of the most expensive Marinas around and expect price increases if staying for a bit of time.

Nice Marina, nice restaurant. (WiFi not so good !)
Marina Response:
Thank you for your review. I'm sorry that our Wi-Fi didn't work well for you. Since our recent upgrade, it had been working well. I'll notify our IT guy now so that he can look into it. We hope you will return soon. Until then safe travels.by Lee D. - Verified user on Oct 21, 2025
Great location, staff is very friendly. Too expensive for a small boat.

Thank you so much for the great review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay!by Gene F. - Verified user on Oct 19, 2025
Very nice marina with new floating docks. Only negative is that it is quite expensive.
$24 per day for electric is rather outrageous.
Marina Response:
Gene,
Thank you for the review. I agree with you on the cost of power. Just so you know, we don't profit on charges for any of the utilities, we only cover our costs. My electric bill for my home is 5 times more now than when I first moved in. It is ridiculous. Please don't hold that against us and come back soon for another visit.

having trouble hitting the 5 star so I'll rate 10 star. This was our first visit by boat. From reservations and checking in to checking out with Libbie, walked to good food, happy hour, good fun, and floating docks. Jon Bryant Bon Voyage

Marina Response:
Robert,
We love our floating docks & your 5-star review too! Please come see us again soon.by Michael C. on Jul 20, 2025
Nice marina. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The upstairs restrooms, office were very good and clean. The pool is a nice amenity. We stayed in a transient slip for one night. They charged $24 for electric on top of a normal per foot charge and apparently if you arrive before 1:00 they charge an early arrival fee.
Marina Response:
Michael,
Thank you for your review & your compliments. Yes, we do have an early arrival fee. It's similar to an early check-in at a resort hotel. We found this necessary as we would have early morning transient arrivals before the previous day's guests' departures. And with a limited number of slips & power configurations it created chaos for the office, trying to reassign slips or worse having a vessel wait outside of the breakwater. In addition, it helps our staff to concentrate on the morning chores such as pumpouts & garbage pick-up, before assisting departing guests. They can then get a bite of lunch before welcoming in our new guests for the day. Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to your return.by Thomas S. - Verified user on Jul 07, 2025
Outstanding! What a great marina, from the staff to the view, security amenities and the members / residents, everything was 1st class.

Thomas,
Thank you so much for your 5-star review. We sincerely appreciate your business and look forward to your return.by Tim P. - Verified user on Jun 23, 2025
What a wonderful experience. The staff was superb, going above and beyond. The amenities are very nice and well maintained. We needed services for our boat while there and they provided contact info for vendors who were able to come out on a Sunday and get our issues resolved quickly. Easy access to downtown with wonderful restaurants and a vibrant nigh life. We WILL be back to spend a few days here in the near future.
