Very pleasant and nice facilities although the docks, being fixed, on a low tide, it’s oven a 2ft climb. Not easy for seniors.
Marina Response:
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the marina and its facilities. Because our docks are fixed, boarding can require a significant step at low tide. This is why we recommend vessels 35 feet or larger with higher freeboards for easier access, particularly for guests with mobility concerns. We appreciate you sharing your experience!

Dock Master was very nice, helped me tie up in a bad wind, even gave me golf cart ride to front of the hotel. Docks were excellent, concrete with nice rubber bumpers on the end concrete pylons.
Marina Response:
Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re delighted our Dockmaster could assist with docking in the wind and provide a ride to the hotel. We appreciate your kind words about our team and facilities and look forward to welcoming you back to Hutchinson Island Marina!

No shore power. The breaker kept tripping. Same with the boat next to us. We had to stay at hotel.
Marina Response:
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry you experienced issues with shore power during your stay.
Our marina features new docks with GFCI-protected electrical service that meets current safety standards. These systems are more sensitive than older marina pedestals and can trip when they detect issues onboard. In this case, our team explained that your vessel was connected using a Y-adapter, and the tripping was consistent with an onboard electrical configuration or ground-fault detection—not a failure of the marina pedestal.
Our staff promptly responded, offered to move you to another slip, and restored power so you could continue running your air conditioning. We would also like to clarify that the neighboring vessel was not plugged in because it did not require shore power, not because the pedestal was inoperable.
We appreciate your feedback and remain committed to providing a safe, reliable marina experience.

Best help securing the boat in the slip ever. I was traveling solo. Facility was top notch. Bathrooms clean and working. Pool bar was great. Pool was a little crowded but refreshing.
Marina Response:
Thank you for the fantastic 5-star review! We’re especially happy to hear that our team was able to help you safely secure your boat while traveling solo. Providing a welcoming hand when it’s needed most is what we’re here for.
It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed our facilities, clean restrooms, and some time relaxing by the pool and pool bar. We truly appreciate you choosing Hutchinson Island Marina and hope your travels bring you back our way again soon. Safe cruising!

The dock master, Ed, was a proactive gentleman. He anticipated our need to have assistance as our boat is 28’, and as it was low tide and the docks were fixed. Assistance to tie up and disembark was necessary. He also helped us take our luggage and golf clubs to the hotel. If we had walked on our own it would have taken two trips back and forth and in 100 degree weather that would have been very difficult. All in all, A+
Marina Response:
Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're delighted to hear that Ed made such a positive impression. His proactive approach and willingness to go the extra mile—whether assisting with docking during low tide or helping transport your luggage and golf clubs in the Florida heat—are exactly the level of service we strive to provide at Hutchinson Island Marina.
We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Ed. He'll be thrilled to know his efforts made your stay more enjoyable.
Thank you again for choosing Hutchinson Island Marina. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit!

Steve and JJ, dockhands, were great. The docks are beautiful and the gates are access controlled in the evenings for dock security. Diesel, Gas and pump out are readily available and the marina is easily accessible from the ICW. You have access to the on-site amenities at the Marriott Resort Hutchinson Island, which are beautiful. Multiple pools, the beach, restaurants, golf, tennis, and pickleball are all on property. 5-stars all around. Only one shortcoming, which is a Marriott issue, and not under the marina control. The showers/bathrooms for marina access are shared with a restaurant and never access controlled. They are also not set up like traditional marina showers with shower/small changing ante-room. They are built to be that way but Marriott has not installed the second privacy curtain. If you're bashful, you may want to shower on your boat. We also went as a group to the showers/restroom in the evening because it is not access controlled and the campus is wide open to the general public.. Again, this is Marriott Resort issue and not under the marina's control. I do hope the two entities get together to fix these issues, Otherwise, I highly recognize the marina
Marina Response:
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review! We truly appreciate your kind words about Steve and JJ—they’ll be thrilled to hear they helped make your stay a great one. We’re also glad you enjoyed our docks, fuel services, easy ICW access, and all of the wonderful amenities the Marriott Hutchinson Island Resort has to offer.
We also appreciate your constructive feedback regarding the restroom and shower facilities. As you noted, those facilities are managed by the resort, but we understand how important privacy and access control are to our boating guests. We value this feedback and will continue to advocate for improvements that enhance the marina experience.
Thank you again for your recommendation and for choosing Hutchinson Island Marina. We hope to welcome you back for another 5-star stay in the near future!

I do not recommend staying here.
The docks are very exposed to wind and waves. Uncomfortable conditions. Staff with exception of the manager Mckenzie were very helpful.
I have left 4 messages for McKenzie and she will not return my calls.
You cannot buy ice on the property anywhere. You have to leave the resort and walk to a convenience store.
There is a beach bar, but you can’t see the beach.
There are several nice marinas in Stuart, skip this one.
Marina Response:
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear your stay did not meet your expectations.
After learning about your concerns, our manager immediately followed up and provided a full refund in an effort to make things right. Regarding your comments about communication, our records indicate that no messages were left directly for the marina manager. We sincerely apologize for any breakdown in communication with our on-site team. We have since addressed those internal communication issues to help ensure they do not occur again.
As with many waterfront marinas, wind and weather conditions can vary and are unfortunately outside of our control. However, our team is always available to assist with docking and to help make your stay as comfortable as possible.
We appreciate your feedback and wish you safe travels on your future adventures.

People were helpful and nice. Showers don’t work…not hot water on one and the other one had hot wYer which stopped flowing in the middle of it!
Marina Response:

Great, helpful employees - above and beyond, good internet Wi-Fi, nice new solid docks. Showers ok, but not great. No hooks to hang clothes, water pressure not great. Nice laundry facilities with reasonable prices. Grounds and pools very nicely kept clean. Shuttles to beach much appreciated and prompt. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Marina Response:
Thank you for the detailed feedback—we’re glad to hear our team made a strong impression and that you enjoyed the docks, Wi-Fi, grounds, and shuttle service.
We also appreciate the constructive notes. We’ll review and look into improving to enhance the experience.

Emily was great as well as the dock hand who came with her. Love the braiding she did on the ropes. Used the fitness center. Very pleasant night.

Was assigned to Northernmost docks slip 11. Was told “There’s 150 feet of deep water around the dock”. There is not. Not only did I run aground in my boat drawing 3.3 feet but the sport fisher in the adjoining slip said he ran aground too. Notwithstanding these problems, The staff is excellent. Management is very attentive! It is spotlessly clean. Security is excellent.

I would not recommend this Marina. The staff were very friendly and helpful, but the dock situation is a non starter. They recently installed all new concrete fixed docks with new electrical pedestals. The docks are much too high for most people,except for the most athletic , to get on and off of your boat. There are no ladders for getting on and off the boat. The finger piers are too short and have no mid cleat available. The bow pilings are too high. On top of all of that, the marina itself is unprotected from the ICW and the no wake zone going past starts too late, making for a rolly experience during the daytime.
Marina Response:
Steven, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly appreciate your kind words about our team — delivering friendly and helpful service is something we take pride in every day.
We’re sorry to hear that aspects of the dock configuration and wave activity impacted your experience. Hutchinson Island Marina features fixed concrete docks, which provide long-term durability and stability, but we understand that dock height and finger pier layout may not be ideal for every vessel type or crew. Your comments regarding cleat placement, pier length, and access are noted and appreciated.
Regarding wake exposure, we are located directly along the ICW, and while that offers convenient access to the St. Lucie Inlet, daytime boat traffic can occasionally create movement. We continuously evaluate operational adjustments and guest communication to set accurate expectations for transient boaters.
We value candid feedback like yours, as it helps us improve both our communication and overall experience. If you’d be open to it, we’d welcome a direct conversation with our marina management team to better understand your visit and explore how we can serve you more effectively in the future.
Safe travels,
Hutchinson Island Marina Team

Emily and team were very helpful and accommodating.
Thank you

The docks are new, fixed concrete, and the slips are well-protected. Pump-outs are free, on demand at slip. Quiet relaxed vibe - definitely not a party marina. One way in/out with security coded gate at end of the pier – very safe.
Bathrooms and showers are new, clean and key card protected right next door to new laundry room with quarters or app payment ($2.50 each load). Packages delivered to your boat or pick up hotel’s front desk.
Staff (Kevin, Steve and Emily) are fantastic! Very helpful and people who take pride in the the new facility.
Publix is a flat, easy 15-minute walk (about 0.8 miles). There’s an excellent breakfast/lunch beach café across from Publix.
Great executive/par 3 course within walking distance. Across the street from golf and down the road is the resort beach club/pool bar with free towels, chairs and umbrellas. Two fitness centers (one in hotel near marina and one next to golf clubhouse). Tennis facility next to golf with pickleball.
On still evenings, you might run into a few no-see-ums on still nights, but bugs aren’t really an issue. Restaurants over the first bridge (about a 30-minute walk/8-minute bike ride/1.6 miles) Asian, Italian, and a classic family/sports bar.
Can’t wait to return!

Helpful dock masters, trash cans at your slip.

As with so many good experiences it comes down to the people. The marina staff were wonderful. They were friendly, accommodating, helpful land knowledgeable.
The marina is pretty open to a southerly blow. Just be aware and ask for guidance from the dockmaster. He’ll let you know what kind of challenge you may or may not encounter.
by Jeffrey M. - Verified user on Mar 16, 2024
We had a great stay at this marina. We took advantage of the Marriott amenities. They have a short shuttle ride to the beach which also has a pool and tiki bar at beach access point. The Dockmaster was great. We are considering this location for a six month winter stay this coming November. Thanks for a great visit.
by Carolyn R. on Mar 01, 2024
The crew was not only friendly, but also extremely personable, helpful, and funny :)
They were patient with all our questions, clear with communicating answers, and accommodating when possible. Most importantly, they showed true concern for the wellbeing of all the boaters in the area. We will absolutely be back!
