Wonderful stay in Annapolis. From the SAYC we could easily walk into the heart of Annapolis and check out all the main sights to see. Marina was very clean and the staff was all very friendly. Gym, laundry, showers, and bathrooms were all very clean and nice. The only issue was there was no way to prevent others from coming into the bathroom when you were getting dressed/undressed for the shower, but it was a pretty quiet place. We would definitely return!
Marina Response:
Kiira - Thank you for your thoughtful review! We are delighted to hear you enjoyed our convenient location, clean amenities, and friendly staff. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the shower area privacy, as input like yours helps us continue to improve. We are so glad you had a wonderful stay in Annapolis and look forward to welcoming you back again!

Buddy, the marina manager, was very communicative in advance, helpful upon our arrival, and generally made our visit a pleasurable and easy experience. The facilities were very clean and new and the proximity to everything Eastport and Annapolis have to offer was spectacular. We will plan to stay here again next time we are in Annapolis.

Everyone here is very helpful and friendly. They entire property is spotless and well maintained. Looks more like a resort than a Marina/Yard. Bathrooms are the nicest/cleanest I have seen in any marina. Wind protection is exceptional. It was blowing 40 knots last night and while we were moving around a bit it was only because of the windage on our 90ft mast. The location is exceptional, great restaurants 10 min walk and its maybe 15 min to walk to downtown Annapolis. Great security ( gated and cameras ) and very quiet. We will for sure be back if we return to the Chesapeake.
Marina Response:
Leslie - Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! We are so pleased to hear that you found the facilities to be spotless, the staff friendly, and the proximity to restaurants and downtown desirable. We are glad that our facility exceeded expectations, and that the marina provided both comfort and protection during your stay, especially during the strong winds. Your kind words mean a great deal to our team, and we look forward to the opportunity to host you again when you return to the Chesapeake!

Modern, clean, first class operation. Every slip has a full length finger dock that is boat floating and wide. Super clean water (I measured at 65ppm) with plenty of pressure. About an 8 minute walk to the closest restaurant and maybe 13-14 minute walk to the waterfront circle in Annapolis. Ubers are plentiful and it’s a 8 minute drive to the local Safeway. Marina is quiet at night as it is well off the beaten path. Excellent protection from winds out of any direction. Can’t say enough good about South Annapolis Yacht Yard.
Marina Response:
Fred - Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review! We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed the docks, facilities, peaceful setting, and close proximity to downtown. Our wide, full-length floating fingers are one of the features that make our marina truly unique in Annapolis and on Spa Creek. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, and we look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to Annapolis!

Great marina! We loved the beautiful floating docks, gym, laundry and the quiet, calm of Spa Creek while still being within walking distance of restaurants and shops. The staff was friendly and helpful. We wish we had time for a longer stay.

Our first time to Annapolis and we loved it! Staying at South Annapolis Yacht Center was the best choice. Close to everything yet far enough to have the quietness we wanted. We were here for one week just before the boat show! Everyone were so nice to us! We loved how clean everything is and the workout room is a great plus!!

This is without question on of the newest and most beautiful marinas in the entire Chesapeake Bay. Floating socks in Annapolis are at premium. Buddy, the consummate Dock Master, is an excellent communicator and always at the ready to assist in any way. The location and beauty surrounding the Marina speak for themselves... Thank you for a wonderful stay. Captain & owner of M/V Sea Spirit.
