Booked same day for a short term day trip. Deck hand was great and very helpful. Slip was great and easy, even with the somewhat narrow entrance into the marina.

Staff was amazing! They really fit a ton of boats in marina and do it well. Very calm and courteous. Bathrooms and showers need an upgrade, when you are paying top dollar for a slip you expect amenities. The loud music going past midnight is a little disappointing as well. Overall, a great experience.

All the help was knowledgeable in receiving me and tying my boat up. Only thing I could suggest is the cost to stay is a to expensive for the average person all Marinas are pricing people out of boating and Dockwa should only take a deposit of 1 night instead of charging me the full amount as soon as my reservation was confirmed.

Dock is in a great location. Little bit of a squeeze getting in and out. As always the dock staff was fantastic and super helpful. Do wish they put some renovation into the bathroom and showers. But overall love staying there

The staff and dockhands are all very friendly and helpful. The only downside is the live music on Friday and Saturdays - unless you're looking for a party, in which case it's terrific.

The Marina staff is excellent! Location is perfect for shopping and eating. One issue is The Deck and the Dockside Night Club are right there… be prepared for a partying Friday and Saturday night!

Marina Response:

Hey Bryan, thank you very much for your review! Unfortunately, there's not much we can do about the music next door, but being in the heart of Newport, some noise is to be expected. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, and we wish you the best of luck with your regatta!

by Janine P. - Verified user on Jul 01, 2025

Service excellence. The manager is great and cares about the customers. Would highly recommend docking here. It doesn't matter the size of your boat, you are treated like VIP! The manager even reached out to us to see if we make it back to Providence since the fog rolled into Newport when we left.

Marina Response:

Hey Janine, Thank you so much for the review! We look forward to seeing you again this summer :)

by Aaron H. - Verified user on Jun 28, 2025
