This is a hard review....most of the staff were over the top kind accept for that 1 person that sadly ruined our stay. Because of this we are unlikely to stop here again. ** update** within a moment of this review I recieved a call from the owner doing his best to understand my concerns! It might just be worth a shot again...
Marina Response:
Heather, Thank you for your original review, and for the update! It was a pleasure hearing your story, even if it was not a totally pleasurable experience for you. In any event we are proud of our staff, and anything but 100% positive experiences is reason to review on our part. Thank you for your time in telling us your story, I believe we will correct the unfortunate situation you found yourself in, and it should be a teachable moment for a long term employee who in fact has been here at the marina longer than us. Kathy is working on a credit to your Dockwa account for the misunderstood labor billing, and we do hope you give us another shot should you be traveling this way again. Happy sailing, and safe travels Brian and Kathy Donovan
