Saybrook Point Marina

Felt it was overpriced for Nov. 1. No dockhands available to help with docking or anything else. Dock manager was home so absolutely no dock employees available. One pedestal wasn’t working properly so we kept ripping our breaker .it looks like a lovely place though. Dock manager made it right by us. Nice job.

Great communication with staff via VHF. Excellent line handling. Clean facilities with an excellent restaurant on location.

Dock master Kate was awesome… great restaurant & amenities

There were only 2 showers for a 125 slip marina, and those showers were shared with hotel, spa, and pool guests and were on top of one another with no space to turn around in the tiny changing area. The day we arrived (off season) we had to wait in the steamy area for 15 minutes, and there were no lockers available.

Enjoyed a great "late season" day at Saybrook Point. This is basically a full service resort by the sea with unique spa/pool facilities, excellent on site food, and very scenic walking/biking/golfing right nearby. The thorough welcome pack is necessary because this is so much more than a dock to tie up to! Staff were excellent - friendly and accommodative. The town itself (Marina has a free shuttle bus) is maybe more like 3 or 4 stars, if you don't have specific needs just enjoy Saybrook Point! Note there is some wave action in the harbor when winds are from the South/Southeast as the marina is right where the river meets the sound...but we were there on a windy day and it wasn't a big deal, just reminded us we were on our boat ;)

Friendly and helpful. Great marina

What a great team - called ahead for docking instructions - told us which side for the lines and bumpers and met us at the slip and helped with the line and electric hookup. Also, gave us a welcome package and explained all the amenities at the resort and nearby attractions. We had 2 dinners at Fresh Salt - the food and service were excellent. The Spa was great also. We left a day early because of the weather and they deducted our last night stay. Overall an excellent experience.

Great place. Kate was very helpful to dock a boat. Very pleasant crew. Will be back next year.

What a really nice place. Staff is very friendly and accommodating.

We stayed three nights due to concerns about the weather. Dock help was great, restaurant was very pleasant with delicious food and efficient service. The shuttle was a great asset and the driver was very helpful with my husband’s needs. We loved this place!

Competent and courteous staff let by Kate, solid docks, fantastic restaurant....what's not to like, Linda & Alex / Serenity

We stayed in the marina this past weekend for one night. the marina is beautiful , clean , professional crew , helpful, nice amenities.

Our weekend stay at Saybrook Point Marina was wonderful and very relaxing. The staff were curtious and accommodating. We enjoyed the amenities included, especially the heated pool, and having the shuttle service was so convenient.

Great stay, excellent facilities, clean pool with wonderful service. Fine eateries.

Great marina. Wonderful staff!

Very helpful staff...big powerboat hangout, and big marina. If you're looking for a quiet place to spend the night on a slip this is not the place....if you are ok with party central this is your place

Great stay, staff is fabulous.

We made a last minute decision to change our destination for this weekend and go to our favorite marina, Saybrook Point Resort and Marina. Kate was nice enough to accommodate us. And we had a fabulous weekend here as always. We always stay a full week in July and then at least one additional long weekend, usually more. This is an amazing Marina. Kate and her crew are second to none. My wife judges other marinas we travel to over the summer as Saybrook worthy or not. A few meet it but none surpass it. You have access to all the resort facilities. The indoor pool, outdoor pool, spa, gym and all the bars and restaurants. Free shuttle to town. And a staff always there to serve. The dock staff under Kate are excellent and the nicest team you can ask for. Do yourself a favor. Come and enjoy this destination.

All the staff were extremely helpful, especially with docking. Our. Dinner was delicious! We will be back.

Nice being able to use the steam room/sauna and all the amenities as a marina visitor.

Nice location, thought it gets a little crazy on the Connecticut River in the entrance area. Helpful, friendly staff.

Fantastic facilities and professional and super friendly staff. Can't wait to return next summer!!

Great stay as always. Saybrook Point is one of our favorite cruise destinations. The staff is very professional and welcoming. The restaurant is very good and amenities are top notch.

Everyone was so welcoming. The food was excellent. The pools were warm. Free shuttle to downtown for breakfast with such a great driver (Vincent). We will be going back soon.

Nice, clean marina. Helpful dock hands. Grills available for a BBQ.

GREAT. MARINA ; GREAT STAFF ESP. KAITLIN AND JACKL FITZGERALD ESP THIS AM. SINGLE HANDED SNCE LOTS OF STAFF HS AND COLLEGE KIDS. NOT AVAIL;ABLE -ALMOST END OF "SUMMER". BUT GREAT RESORT --POOLS ETC. AND RESTAURANT. CONVENIENT AND GOOD. DIESEL PRICE WAS PRETTY GOOD TOO!!!

Beautiful marina with great amenities and staff. 10/10

Everyone was pleasant and the dock hands were very helpful

Nice Marina and Restaurant. Marina staff very helpful. Marina wave activity is above normal at the T of B dock, Seakeeper required.

Jack and other dock crew were great. We love making Saybrook point a stop every year. Facilities and restaurant are tops. If anyone is reading, one small request…give a little more bacon and Canadian bacon when one orders sides 😀

The best marina in Connecticut. Kate and her staff are simply amazing, attentive and accommodating. The facility is superb, from the marina quality, services and all the way to the Inn, spa and restaurant. We come to this marina several times per season!!! 5 STARS indeed!

Very expensive but great amenities, restaurants etc.

Staff, facilities and restaurant were all great. One of our favorite yearly destinations

Really good stay.

Great place. Nice people.

Professional staff - great amenities, clean and well maintained. Great food and drinks. Pools and spa - best Marina by far

great place to stay with excellent dock staff!

Beautiful facility. Great staff. Fun!

Staff is incredibly polite and professional. Always willing to help. The amenities offered are excellent.

Great marina and staff, accommodations were excellent!!

Great location and staff is terrific

Great marina, excellent dock staff, wonderful resort to unwind at.

We have been visiting the Saybrook Point Marina every year for 17 years, and the service and support by the staff has always been consistently the best we experience, regardless of where else we travel. Kate Mosley, the Marina manager, has been singularly focused on providing visiting boaters with superb care. That same level of care is provided by the Inn and its Fresh Salt restaurant and Water Bar. And of course, the pet friendly environment is welcomed by our four-footed family members. The Marina and the resort have my highest recommendation!

Great resort, Great staff

Beautiful marina, the dock hands are amazing. We had Kate help us!

Great staff great marina, a little bit of swell from the sound otherwise awesome stay

Great location. Great staff.

A favorite stop each year for the last 20 years! Dockmaster Kate is great and runs a very professional dockstaff. The restaurant was terrific, as usual. Highly recommended.

Marine was excellent. Saybrook has almost nothing to offer. Great place if you want a RESORT.

Beautiful marina, friendly fuel & dock staff, great food & restaurant, clean facilities. Will definitely stay here again!

Great trip with family

Katie and Kaitlin were really efficient. The marina docks were very good and the facilities available for boaters was nice.

So much to love about Saybrook Point Marina - friendly staff, access to the facilities at the Inn including outdoor and indoor pools, exercise classes and gym, spa and bikes to borrow. Location is close to town and easy bike routes; pretty 9-hole golf course about a mile away. And, Fresh Salt, the restaurant, is a favorite.

Very nice amenities and extremely nice staff. Do pay close attention to their directions for the location of your slip.

The staff is second to none. Always a smile and willing to assist.

The dock crew was very helpful and easy to deal with.

Wonderful weekend & staff was great

Great amenities and service. Food delicious

The marina and resort was great- unfortunately due to wild fires in Canada floods in NH and very bad storms in Connecticut, the Connecticut River was filthy and full of debris, all out of the Marinas control

We were on the outside by the mega yachts which has an occasional boat wake action but our boat is heavy so not a problem. The marine facilities are very well maintained, the restaurant is solid, indoor and outdoor pool, spa facilities are very nice (though you have to reserve well in advance) and fitness center is good. We have been coming for years as this is a great spot to break up a trip to/from Newport from our home port on LI. Dockhands know what they are doing and are very pleasant. Great first or last day of a vacation.

We had planned to stay at Saybrook Point Marina for five days but ran into battery and hot water heater problems so arrived early and left after we had planned. Kate, the manager of the Marina, did some kind of special magic to accommodate us unexpectedly for such a long stay during the busy season. We were there for a full 19 days and the entire crew help us in every way they could including accepting many and sometimes large packages that were shipped to us for our repairs. They treated us like family. In addition, it is a wonderful facility with barbecues, swimming pool, nice restaurants and a spa where we were able to get a much needed massage to temper the pressure of having to get repairs done ASAP. We will be staying there again on our passage south later in the season.

Our fourth and best visit! Very accommodating to but us on a T-dock. Great service by all, and two delicious, if expensive, meals in the restaurant. We’ll be back!

Great place to stay with your boat. Very nice facilities and amenities, and friendly staff.

Easy access from LI Sound. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean facilities. Good restaurant.

Our stay was wonderful 👍

Simply put: World class. We were late arrivals after a last minute cancellation. Maddy helped us dock like a pro. The spa facility was way better than it needed to be, but well-appreciated by my weary crew.

Great staff, super accommodating. Beautiful marina and restaurant.

Friendly staff and well trained, before I went to Harbor One but will return here from now on. I didn't have time to use the facility but I have gone to their first rate restaurant. I will return again and again.

Our favorite place to go.

Everyone was very helpful and dinner was delicious

Great location. Awesome staff. Beautiful resort. Pre-arrival communication was very helpful. We will be back!

Excellent dock staff and fun place to hang out.

Moddy was great and fresh salt has great food right there at the marina

The Dock hands were great! Kate the Dock Master was exceptional! They get a 5 star Plus!Knowledgeable and beyond helpful. Only toppled by here great personality. The dock staff were so friendly and helpful the entire weekend. We can’t thank you guys enough. We came over with around 10 Boats from Mt.Sinai. All will be back. Only reason for the 4 stars was the cleanliness of the pool, large pile of scuzz in the corners like you would see in a hot tub, but 5 times the size. Had to take a hard pass on the pool. The food was great on premise! Get the pork chop! Even if you don’t like pork chops!

Very good. Kate Mosley and her team were fabulous.

Excellent spot! Great food and service

We have been repeating customers for the last 4 years. This year, however, our experience was disappointing. We were assigned to T-head dock “A”, which is basically open to the sound. Aside from all the wash coming from passing boats during daylight hours, when a little bit of swell started coming in from SE at night, our boat started bouncing around heavily against the dock. Note we were using heavy-duty line snubbers; can’t imagine what it would have been like without them. Not worth the premium price, sorry.

Beautiful spot. Close to town with good restaurant options. People super nice and helpful

Great as always , best marina in Connecticut.

Staff always willing to help in any way they can Salt Restaurant top draw. Also Liv's Shack

Having both a marina and a resort SPM is a great place. Kate the manager and her staff at the marina were all fantastic!

Enjoyed our stay as always. Marina staff is always willing to help with anything needed. Only down side was that there was a lot of debris in the water within the marina and around the docks .

Staff was great and friendly, lots of things to do at the hotel. If you come by boat they treat you as if your staying in one of there rooms.

We will be back! Top-notch facility, dock staff, grounds and food. Thank you!

Always perfect great facilities and dock assistance

Super great staff and amenities. Could not be better.

Great people and a great marina.

Great service as usual! Kate is amazing and runs a good show. It is always a treat to stay there!

Friendly staff. Great marina with restaurant and access to pool

One of the worst marinas that I have ever stayed. If they don't want sailboat transients then don't take the reservation. We were treated like unwanted visitors. No dock support. No call from the Dockmaster regarding slip assignment. Had to call to confirm dock assignment and hours of operation. No help from the resort desk. Were given keys but no info on facilities, no info on how to navigate the many rooms to best get in and out of the facility. We were obviously just wasting the valuable time of the resort desk. We had to wander around until we found the right door to get in and out. The resort wouldn't take our dinner reservation even though there were at least 15 tables available. We arrived and departed without any interaction from any of the staff. Couldn't wait to leave. I have been to over a hundred marinas during my sailing experience. This was the worst.

Very nice place to stop. Excellent reataurant

Top Shelf staff and facility. Clean Friendly marina. 5 Stars from us. We all had a great time.

We loved our stay at Saybrook point marina. Grounds are beautiful and the staff is always helpful and friendly. Docking was super easy. Can't wait to return.

Awesome marina, great restaurant.

Lovely marina, run by Kate, who is as capable and enthusiastic a marina manager as we’ve found anywhere. We were there in April, so there were few other boats. The marina is part of a resort, and showers and other amenities are in the resort’s main building. They include indoor and outdoor pools, a full service spa, and a restaurant. Every employee we encountered went out of their way to be helpful. The marina is at the mouth of the Connecticut River, so it’s easy on/easy off from Long Island Sound. The one problem for us on the single night we stayed there was that there was wave action all night strong enough to keep the fenders between the boat and the floating dock squeaking constantly. Regardless, we would stay there again and choose a slip in a different location.

Unbelievable I love that marina

Always a 5 star experience!! The best of the best!!

We called ahead, as we would be cutting it close to closing time. The Manager said we would be able to get diesel....when we arrived almost 30 mins before closing we were told the pumps were off.... very dissapointing service for a place charging almost 200 for one nite. Electric service was 20 on top of 180. Little assistance from dock staff... We have stayed here sever times before and the service was excellent and the price was half of above....maybe they are nicer in the off season

Visit this fine place if you want the best. Kate will guide and assist you as one would expect in a five-star hotel. The owner even made time to greet us and see us off. The grounds are impressive, the restaurants and bars are top shelf, and the pool areas are comfortable and beautiful. The hotel lobby and most spaces are graciously designed and inviting, and there is marine art everywhere. There is an enormous amount of attention to detail being paid here. By way of a fun and unique example, check out the old pilings with their caps carved with fanciful water creatures. We've seen many changes over 40 years, and this marina / resort is better than ever.

My first time at this lovely seaside resort. Kate and Katelyn could not have been more friendly and helpful. They really take pride in what they do and it shows. A beautiful resort and marina. I will be coming back with friends!

The Marina is very nice with great dock staff. We didn’t use the pool or Inn facilities. Paid about $550 for 2 nights with a 42’ boat which is on the pricey side. For this price I expect a good working Wi-Fi which they don’t have. It would constantly stop. I am deducting 2 points on my rating based on that at this price point everything should be excellent!

Great dock hands, great facility…gets a little bumpy on the outer face docks.

Fantastic friendly service at this family owned facility. Great restaurants nearby.

Had a great time at the marina. It is clean, well attended and well managed. We enjoyed it so much that we extended our stay, and our location was easily accommodated our size boat which is not always easy. It is quite and quaint location. The food at the Fresh Salt restaurant was quite good, with ample selections of seafood. The views from the marina, and sunset is worth the visit alone. We needed fuel before our returm to lower CT, and the support at the fuel deck was awesome, and the fuel prices were very reasonable Hope to see you guys again next season.

The staff were great, very helpful, and treated us the same as the millionaires docked around us even though we had a dingy in comparison. I am still trying to figure out how the dockhand beat me to my slip from the gas dock.

Great location Staff was excellent Facilities were spotless Restaurant is quite pricey

very nice, venue, staff, location

Very nice amenities at the Marina. Staff was friendly and restaurant as well as pools were excellent. That being said WI-FI was horrendous. We had a rainy day and a good signal would of been nice. That being said we will most likely return

It was a fabulous time spent at Saybrook Point Inn. Facilities are immaculate the food is fabulous and the dock staff is very very accommodating.

We come here every year. Top notch service at the dock, restaurant and hotel. Can’t wait until next year!

Wonderful Marina with a great staff. We will certainly stay again and recommend to other boaters.

Hands down, absolutely our favorite marina in New England for a long weekend get away. The Dock staff is extremely helpful, the on site restaurant is exceptional, the facilities are sparkling clean AND the spa turns out some of the best massages I've ever had. If that's not enough, the resort provided free shuttle will take you anywhere in town to visit the lovely Main Street shopping area and more terrific restaurants. What's not to love... Captain Boot

Thanks from the crew of Sirah Ktana. Prime location, great staff on board, the bar and restaurant are classy and the pools, showers, sauna and hot tub make the experience worthwhile. We plan to come again

Excellent dock crew. Also shuttle driver went far outside of the normal range to pick us up when we couldn’t get an Uber back. Excellent service and environment.

The crew at Saybrook Point Marina couldn't have been nicer! I asked for a slip I could pull into instead of backing in, and they accommodated my request. To make sure we could easily get on and off the boat, they moved the dock ladder. What a nice facility. And, nice people too!

Clean everything, kudos to the staff

Beautiful Marina. Seems more orientated towards resort VS Marina. Fabulous shuttle service. Not Long walk to get ice,from D Dock as it only available at the fuel dock. Amenities very nice

These guys are the best; professional, competent, and great facilities. Definitely the best marina on in the NorthEast

Beautiful location and very friendly and helpful dock team

First time to Saybrook Point and nothing but absolute positives to share. AMAZING staff, beautiful marina/pool/spa and just a great destination! We ate a Fresh Salt one night and the food was fantastic as well. A definite stop again for us. We have three girls whom also liked the marina just as much…great for kids as well!

The best employees and facilities on Long Island Sound.

Excellent staff and facility Very bumpy location. Needs better wave attenuation

Great stay, great service and all around one of the best overnights we've had.

Great facility, very helpful and friendly staff, restaurant was excellent. Amenities fantastic. Enjoyed our stay, will go back soon!

Awesome as always. Amenities top notch and the Marina staff were top of their game. You really train the summer kids well and it shows. Exceptional service. Fast and courteous. Just an amazing place. We’ll always come back!

This is one of my favorite marinas. A beautiful resort, with the dining area overlooking the marina. Great dark staff, great restaurant staff,. Wonderful food! What’s not to like?

Beautiful place and expert dock help.Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The restaurant Fresh Salt was terrific also. We travel with the kids (3 under 10) and everyone was so accommodating! We will be back!

My favorite marina never disappoints!! Best views, staff is amazing! Michael our waiter at Salt was a rockstar! Food is great and the pool is awesome!

Great place to visit.

The dock team welcomed us warmly, got to us quickly in a skiff, and assisted with check-in, in addition to docking. We felt the offerings at the restaurant were varied and high quality. The marina shower facility is excellent. We appreciated the shuttle service to town. There was a fair surge in the marina at times but nights were calm. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much and will return!

Beautiful place with fantastic amenities. Staff was extremely helpful. A pleasure!

The Marina is a Great and the food at the restaurant on the premises, Fresh Salt is top quality. The dock fees are aren’t overpriced which makes it another reason that makes it attractive. Highly recommend coming here.

Marina, hotel, restaurant all were outstanding. Dock attendants were helpful and staff friendly. Very peaceful and beautiful location.

Really enjoyed it. Cooper was awesome helping us back in the boat! 👍

The docks are in fabulous shape. The staff couldn't be nicer and more helpful As a bonus, theres a great restaurant, spa, gym, and other amenities available to the marina guests.

Overnight stay here on our way North. Marina staff were very helpful and professional in helping secure our boat. Lots of activity with the associated hotel. Complimentary bikes which was very nice as the town is only a couple of miles away. They also have a shuttle. Good dockside restaurant. Would come back.

Had a great time. Bathrooms were clean. Boaters friendly. Dockhands were helpful. Only disappointment was the map approaching the marina. If the adjoining marina was included on the map, the approach would have been less confusing. We'll be back.

We just came back from the best weekend Kate and Cooper could not have been more helpful and friendly. We love coming to Saybrook Point - it is the perfect location, near Old Saybrook and the Saybrook Point Inn - the food has always been good, but even better this time.

First time and really a great place dock hands were great too

Helpful friendly staff with great amenities!

Great marina - stayed here 4-12-22. Even early in the season they could not have been more accommodating. Excellent restaurant and amenities !

Great marina! Friendly staff and delicious restaurant! We’ll be back!

This is a beautiful marina with an excellent array of amenities! Perfect for boaters with five star boats and five star tastes... We were treated well by all staff members. Our only complaint was having a slip assignment that resulted in a very “tenuous” nights sleep. We understand that not everyone can have an optimal slip in a Marina like this. We only wish that we didn’t have our reservation request accepted. The marina was extremely full and also was hosting a large wedding.

Excellence personified in every detail.

Very positive experience with one negative. A member of our party requested a second key for the resort from the front desk. The response from the staff member was a rude, "What makes you think I can do that?". On the positive side, I accidentally left my credit card at a restaurant at a busy time for the shuttle and near closing. A member of the staff drove me there in his personal vehicle! Very busy place with weddings but overall a good experience.

First time at this marina. We own a 46 foot sailboat. Unfortunately we were directed to a fixed sea wall closest to the public park. The tides are more than 3 feet. Between the current of the river and winds our spot was exposed to marine traffic and lots of waves. It was almost impossible to prepare breakfast each morning due to severe Rocking and bouncing. At night the water calmed down so that we could get in 6 hours of rest. We booked our three night stay over 5 weeks in advance so there should have been time to get us into a Floating dock insulated by the river and marine traffic. Kate the manager was very nice and helpful. WiFi was nonexistent the entire stay. The facility is very nice. Good gym. However weddings are every night so getting into restaurants is impossible. Free bike use. I rate the dock and slip a 1. The pool and facility a 4. One night we chose to use the BBQ grill on the dock. I went to light the grill and two tanks were left empty. I call the desk to request a filled tank and 20 minutes later someone comes. He installs the new tank and the grill does not light. I spent another 20 minutes trying to get the grill to lite. No good. He directs me to the complete opposite end of the facility. Mind you I have food that I am carrying to grill. The first grill I find does not have a tank. The third and final grill has a tank but no starter. I have to remove greasy grates to light the grill. It lites and I am able to cook my dinner. Then walk all the way back to my boat on the exposed sea wall. My food was cold by then. Horrible experience. The final day I walk my 5 pound dog. It’s low tide and the wind is pushing my boat 5 feet off the fixed dock. Holding my dog by her leash I step onto my boat and she slips and falls to the water being saved by my still holding onto the leash. Unfortunately due to our very poor experience with the fixed sea wall we will not return.

The marina staff were amazing - helpful, always smiling, polite, professional. Kate the manager is the best! The entire place is a gem, everyone working there (Marco in the restaurant) worked so hard, and still dealing with staffing shortages. An amazing place

Great location and the dock hand was very helpful! Enjoyed the restaurant and the spa. The courtesy van driver drove us to the nearby Stop and Shop for provisioning which was great. Stayed for two nights to ride out Hurricane Ida's wind and tain.

Great Dock Great Staff great place to visit

The marina is first rate and we love visiting the town of Old Saybrook. We had excellent meals at the hotel restaurant and the live band (The Cartells) on Monday night was fantastic. But the night-time water condition at the docks was rocky both nights of our stay despite great weather (barely any wind)… not the marina’s fault but our 5-star stay was dropped a notch by Mother Nature.

Great staff. Great restaurant .

Great Place Great Staff Can't wait to go back!

Great service and wonderful facilities. Doug was excellent gettinf us docked up and set for our stay. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful facility with a professional staff. This was our second time going, thanks. Please light up the lighthouse again

Great place. Super helpful staff. Beautiful pool great restaurant! We will be back.

You get what you pay for, top notch professionals working the docks, and a lovely resort at the head of the dock. Music from the restaurant can be annoying if you don’t like the style, but it ends early enough.

The staff was exceptional. Facilities are top notch and you get access to all the amenities. The restaurant has amazing food and service. Only draw back is the excessive amount of movement when tied up. Not much that can be done about it so just be prepared. Great experience overall and will definitely visit again.

Very helpful, friendly and courteous staff. The hotel is beautiful and the hotel amenities are very nice but crowded. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because bathrooms and showers are quite a distance and are used by hotel guests. It was very crowded and there were only 2 showers and toilets. We couldn’t get reservations for dinner so call ahead if you are planning dinner. Also a heads up when coming into the channel. Lots of debris - we saw logs and ldead fish.

Did not have the correct slip upon arrival. Next day I was gone fishing all day. No message received on slip

Fantastic dock. staff assisted in docking. Many amenities offered to marina guests including pools, spas, restaurants, fitness center, bike rentals . after they moved us off the gas dock we were much happier and the staff is FANTASTIC!

Owner of saybrook marina was sooo nice! He let the restaurant know we were coming for dinner with 2 Celiac (gluten free) 15 yo daughters. They were VERY accommodating with meal choices. The driver of the shuttle was a such a breath of fresh air. Excited about his job, happy and super friendly! My daughters thought he was just awesome! Only draw back was trying to get to and from Essex. Very frustrating to not have options for transport beyond Saybrook. No uber, no Lyft. BUT, we took advantage of the 9 Towns Transit - it was amazing so long as it was before 6pm. Free transport - pick up and drop off at your specific locations. Why this isn’t offered as an option to guests is beyond me! After 6pm, though, you’re on your own! Thanks to a friendly homeowner in Essex, we didn’t have to WALK all the way back to Saybrook (2 1/2 hours!!).

Food very disappointing

Good layover spot - easy access from LI Sound, fuel dock, great restaurant (Fresh Salt), accommodating and friendly staff.

A great place to stay, amazing help at the dock, with paper work, with advice about the facilities. Great raw bar. Wonderful free bikes available. Super stay

The guys at the marina, Cooper and Jack, were great! they helped us move our boat during some strong SE winds.

Best marina we stayed at during a three week boat tour from NJ to Hyannis and back. Dockmaster Kate Moseley is top notch!

This was our first time staying at a marina other than where we keep our boat. "Impressed" does not even come close to the amazing experience at Saybrook Point Marina! As new boaters, we are nervous about certain things but try anything. The gas dock was a bit busy but the crew called us in, guided us with expert experience for a smooth docking. They checked us in while we fueled up, so we could head directly to our slip. The customer service at the gas dock was warm and welcoming. Bella was our attendant and was full of information, which was delivered with a smile and eagerness. We then asked for help getting into our slip (being new boaters) and when we arrived to the slip there were two dock hands at the ready with speed and effeciency - they did every thing with a warm welcome! It brought comfort to our experience. Upon departure (we left early to avoid high winds and rain coming in) I went to the office to ask for help. Bella was there and was again, very friendly, accomodating, full of information and provided comfort and confidence. When we were ready to depart there were two dock hands at the ready very promptly and effectively helped us pivot out of our docking area. One of them is the lead dock manager and he is terrific at customer service! The confidence, accomodations, friendliness and effecient workers was top notch! This marina has set the bar for the other marinas in our future, and I feel a bit apprehensive that anyone will live up to the A+++ experience we had at Saybrook Point Marina. We have already planned to make this an annual trip. The marina is extremely clean all around; the facilities available are top notch (showers, steam room, hot tub, 2 pools, restaurant, several bars, laundry, fuel, ice, etc). Excellent spot for 2 nights of relaxation and enjoyment. I highly recommend booking this as a destination and do it early!

Great staff, amenities and overall experience. Make reservations ahead of your arrival if you plan to eat at the restaurant….it’s very popular and books up FAST. Thank you to the staff for a great stay!

Great facility, competent dockhands and nice amenities! Shuttle service to take you to town works well. Make reservations to get into Fresh Salt - very busy.

This was our third year staying at Saybrook, and as in the past everything was flawless. The marina and docks are very well kept, and we are always greeted and assisted with big smiles. Looking forward to returning next year!

Dockage was good, Marina attendants were knowledgeable and nice. Restaurant and amenities were very average.

Cooper and the rest of the dock staff were helpful and amazing. The resort has everything you could ask for including free shuttle to and from town.

Great marina & facilities

Love the Old Saybrook marina and staff. Kate and her staff runs a friendly top notch marina. Huntington Yacht Club Commodore, Frank Messina

Top notch marina, the staff was incredible. Indoor and outdoor pools, on-site restaurant and bar. Amenities were top notch. The surrounding town didn't seem to have much to offer but the marina was great!

Beautiful spot! Easy feee shuttle to town for dinner and provisions. Nice pool and workout room. Helpful marina staff.

Just wonderful! Great staff at the dock, had dinner at the restaurant, used their shuttle service twice, and borrowed their bikes. Resort staff were very helpful and friendly.

Great place and great staff

Great facilities, and even better staff!

Great facilities with knowledgeable and attentive staff.

Great facility, friendly and helpful staff, A+.

Always a favorite spot for us. Kate and her crew are super helpful with docking and departure. Excellent Sunday brunch , great pools and bar area. Can’t wait to go back again later this year.

Dinner was terrific and the setting is lovely. The staff were great as always. Helped get us fueled and iced before departure and couldn't be more pleasant.

Great service. Wonderful dock master. Everyone is helpful. Extraordinary restaurant—and we are NYkers with high standards. Great pool and sauna facilities after a cold and rainy trip.

Very nice facility, helpful and responsive dock hands. Our only “complaint” was the showers: no curtains between active shower area and dressing space and dressing space was so short it was difficult to get dressed in the heat and humidity.

Service at marina second to none. Great location. Fresh Salt restaurant serves 5 star dishes.

Excellent facility and staff!

Excellent marina and resort Staff is too notch friendly and helpful Restaurant and bars great Highly recommend

Excelent stay! Great amenities.

Nice place to stay. very convenient. Staff was very helpful.

Excellent stop. We enjoyed the pool and spa.

Kate and Cooper could not be nicer and more helpful. Saybrook Point is one of favorite marinas to go to

Beautiful place . We highly recommend coming here. The restaurant,pools and spa were wonderful! We will definitely be back!

Beautiful all around

Exceptional dock hand. Beautiful facility.

First class marina in all ways from dockhands to amenities and service. Clean and great restaurant as well. There is a spa,2 pools and sauna. You won’t find much better

This may be the best marina in the Northeast. Incredible facilities, protected slips and friendly staff!! Perfect!

Kate, the dock master, is the best. Always a smile and nothing too much.

Great marina. Helpful staff

Wonderful place, wonderful staff, best marina I know around here. Had some issues with shore power, they immediately were all over it (on busy Holiday Weekend), relocated us to another slip while offering crew support to move the boat. Noticed that another boat crew was loud during the day, handled it effectively with great respect to all parties. Great facilities. They are amazing.

Amazing night at Saybrook. Doug stayed late and got us tucked in for a calm evening. Couldn’t have been better. Thanks Saybrook, we’ll definitely be back again!

Loved this place. Everyone very friendly very helpful. Very clean. Really enjoyed ourself. Will definitely cone back. Highly recommend. Woohoo

Marina staff are outstanding...especially Cooper! My husband and I have been boating for many years and subsequently have stayed at a number of marinas. The staff at this marina are by far the most professional and helpful we have ever met. Cooper helped with the reservation and ensured us that this would be the least stressful docking experience we would ever have. He was absolutely right. Upon approach the crew answered their radio immediately, assisted with docking, fueling and a pump out, and then met us at our slip to help us tie up. Cooper and the crew were well trained, experienced, efficient, professional, neatly dressed and fun to be around. It appears that all of the staff truly wanted us to have a safe and enjoyable experience. Being on a floating dock is always enjoyable and the live music at the hotel added to the great experience we had. We will be back and will spread the word. Sincerely, the Browns

Dock hands we super attentive Cooper Beth. Ella and backus were all fantastic and gas was priced right Resturaunt was great

The facilities are great, with the pool, restaurant and spa all within a few feet of the dock. (Best marina bathroom in long island sound.) The mini golf course located next door, is also a fun activity for the kids and kids at heart. The dock hands are unbelievably attentive and helpful. The one knock is that the marina is relatively exposed, so if there is any weather (especially from NE, E or SE), it can be a rocky night sleep. Overall, though, we have been annually the last four years will definitely be back.

Very nice. Will definitely return!!!

First time there- very nice. Dock staff helpful. Great place to ride bikes. Hope to be back again next year.

Great stay. Thank you.

The marina and guest facilities are very nice and clean. The staff is very courteous, professional and helpful. Kate at the marina is amazing. The manager Eric (of the hotel) was extremely helpful, professional and went above and beyond to accommodate our friends who stayed in the hotel. We really love this place.

Dock staff was excellent, place is clean and the Fresh Salt restaurant was tops!

Great Marina, restaurant and service

Great marina and restaurant, pools indoor and outdoor, spa, gym. Very helpful staff low fuel prices. Mile walk to town to explore. Would have given 5 stars, but not to their fault, the River is very busy and there is a lot of rocking during the day and I had to keep my gyros running to stabilize boat.

Great marina. Dock staff are great and get you squared away. Entrance is a little tight but protected. Food and music in the restaurant was lovely. Good value for money as well.

This marina is very professionally run. Efficiency throughout the process and great communication. Deckhand was super polite and knowledgeable. The restaurant here is top notch and the season slip holders surrounding the transient slips were super friendly and welcoming. I was a little cautious with the COVID environment before making the reservation but the marina and adjacent inn/restaurant were ensuring proper protocols and made us feel safe. Years ago we stayed here and remember feeling more impact from the river wakes but that was not an issue this time. Nice Lobster Shack right next door, as well as opportunity for walking and bike riding.

Great place to stay and great docks.

Marina staff could not have been more helpful Facilities & amenities top-shelf even during this unusual time

In spite of ongoing efforts to restore power in the marina after tropical storm Iaisas, the staff went out of their way to make things work. We have only had good experiences here.

We had a great stay at the marina. The dock staff was first rate, great assistance into our slip and lent us a 50amp extension for our stay when our power cord didn’t reach the pedestal. Restaurant at marina was very nice and convenient, and the complementary shuttle bus to town was great as was the driver. Miniature golf next to marina was a plus for our young boys and they also enjoyed the pool. Will be coming back.

Out standing stay for spur-of-the-moment visit We will definitely be back this year

ZERO stars! First of all I would like to make it very clear that I have never complained about a Marina before. When we placed a reservation request, we asked to be docked with our friends.They accepted our reservation and of course money! Upon arrival, we were placed on different docks. Our dock was literally broken and I almost fell twice! Our view was a steel wall on the side of the hotel. The hotel guest could look down at our boat. We were next to a charter boat filled with guests not wearing masks. The only way to get access to the dock our friends were on was to walk through the restaurant...completely unacceptable during Covid. Our friends were docked in front of the outdoor diners on two sides. All the diners looked down onto their boat. They couldn't use the head on their boat because diners were looking in! They faced the steel walls on two sides and the docks were all sub-par. We decided to leave because the marina clearly did not accommodate our request and because we felt they were irresponsible in COVID protocols. We asked for a refund based upon the facts and they denied it. Also, it was a Friday night and I'm sure they resold our slips. We left within an hour of arrival. Update: We are happy to report they refunded our stay. Maybe we will give them another try in the future.

We got to the marina, tied up and left within 30 minutes. We had asked to be next to our friends on their boat; Pi-Seas. We were provided slips on opposite sides of the marina. To walk from our slip to theirs required us to walk through the crowded outdoor restaurant, With diners not wearing masks, while the coronavirus is still prevalent in our society. Our slip was directly under the restaurant on both our starboard side and stern. The pool was also right near our boat. We felt like we were in a fish bowl. The restaurant was so close and the people were looking down on us. Our friends boat was in a slip where they said the dock was broken. They also chose to leave. We spoke to the dock master, Kate, and while she was very nice, she told us they turned away other boaters because they were full and therefore, she could not provide us any refund or credit. Before we left, Kate said she would confer with the marina management and determine whether there is anything they can do. I highly doubt that we would ever go back to this marina and we would certainly not recommend it to our boating community.

Fabulous place. Great amenities and docks

Wonderful stay. Dock staff excellent. Dockmaster Kate cold not have been more helpful or pleasant to deal with. Entire dock crew really knows how to handle boats. Facility top quality staff. Restauanrt has excellent food.

Staff is excellent extremely helpfully friendly and courteous. The facility is immaculately maintained. This was our first time to Saybrook point marina and after this visit it will be a regular destination for us from now on.

Lovely marina with great facilities and friendly staff. Thanks for a great stay!

We made a last minute reservation and they put us on the fuel dock, which turned out to be a pretty good spot given the wind direction. The staff was courteous and helpful. They could not find a way for us to connect the shore power but other than that, the stay was good. There was a vibrant social life on the docks and the people were friendly. One boat got a little out of hand but the staff put an end to that promptly. We liked to location and would definitely return.

Great staff. Great marina. The Saybrook inn is a wonderful place.....and Fresh Salt restaurant is amazing. The town is a little sleepy....but a good getaway from the hustle and bustle. We visit a couple of times a yr. we highly recommend it

Always welcoming. Beautiful spot. Love walking to town. Accommodating shuttle service. Everyone adherered to wearing masks so we felt SAFE. Will be returning again!

Courtney and the rest of the dock staff “ Top shelf “ as always ! Restaurant was busy during holiday weekend yet handled everything perfectly and food was as usual delicious.

Excellent service and the facilities were really clean. They seem to be making all attempts to comply with the COVID guidelines which should be commended. Patrons were respecting others by wearing face mask. Very pleasant stay.

The staff is, as always, friendly and helpful. The location has much to offer, even in this crazy age of Covid. We will keep coming back as we have for many years.

The marina hotel and restaurant are great. The thing to know is if you have a small boat it may be difficult. There is a tremendous surge on the incoming tide creating swells in the dlip area. Boats are bouncing around even when winds are calm. We slept ok on our 37 but beware if you are smaller. Pool and facilities are great. Thanks Rob Northport NY

Great amenities and staff. But we did not receive a pass card to the facilities when we checked in. Also, there was a mixup with our dinner order at the restaurant. With limited amenities due to the Covid virus, we thought the usual docking rate should have been reduced.

Great Marina. Dock help does a great job.

Took me in when they weren’t open because I had no where else to go. Everyone was incredibly helpful and friendly. Facilities were great and the docks OK. Restaurant on site was doing take out of some great food at good prices. The only down side was the docks were rocky in the big winds out of the perfect direction to cause waves in the harbor, SE.

Did not feel this marina was worth the very steep price they were charging, especially in the off season. Paid roughly half the price in the Newport wharf in the same period. The amenities were very nice but if you are using the marina for an overnight as you are moving through the Sound it is definitely not worth it.

Loved the facility, marina& restaurant

Nice folks lots of amenities at marina Not much going on in town

No code given to reenter dock after going to dinner. No one to assist

Great resort. First rate amenities.

Easy entry to a well maintained slip with full electric and water. Wonderful facilities - gym, spa, showers, etc. Also a great restaurant - Fresh Salt on site. A wonderful, relaxing stay.

Easy access from LI Sound. Clean, great atmosphere, ameneties (pool, bar, spa, bathrooms, restaurant...), quiet and relaxing. Very accommodating marina staff. Easy access for fuel.

Stayed here this past weekend in our Pursuit 34. Weather was not the best however all of the amenities of this marina made our stay very pleasant! The kids loved the pool and mini golf and we enjoyed the spa and the outdoor cooking areas! Very clean facility and the staff was fantastic!!

Spent a few overnights this season and staff is amazing!! Facilities are top notch!! Look fwd to next return.

Great Marina with 2 pools, hot tub, steam room, sauna, and a spa.

Awesome experience!!!

Saybrook Point Marina re defines first class service, facilities, staff, amenities, etc.. This is the Monaco of the East Coast. Saybrook is more than a great boating destination, it is the best of the best for an incredible comprehensive vacation experience. Day cruising to Hamburg Cove and nearby Essex are added benefits. Clearly Saybrook has their guests convenience properly prioritized. Stop in and you'll be pleasantly surprised while being pampered by the staff. They beat any expectation you can imagine.

Top notch marina at a top notch hotel. Every amenity covered from the professional marina staff to the beautiful grounds of the resort to the excellent restaurants and stunning coastal community of Old Saybrook. Morning bike ride along North Cove Road is a must...bring your camera!!

Beautiful marina, helpful Staff, great Resturant. Great Pools and Hottub, but no towels available We will go back

This is my favorite place, a beautiful, safe haven. Great service, great food, great atmosphere, great entertainment. Also great location at the point where the CT river meets the LI sound. There’s no place I’d rather be.

Marina is absolutely wonderful. Top notch in every way.

Excellent Marina with accommodating staff. Great location and surroundings

Nice helpful staff. Pool and facilities clean and well kept.

Beautiful Inn and Marina with excellent amenities and a great staff. My boat was placed in a slip E-14 almost up against the bulkhead. The turbulence is beyond belief due to tide changes. We were pounded all day and night and at 3:00 am I had to leave the boat because I was getting sea-sick at the dock. I had to stay in the Lobby and wait for morning. The boat was pounding and it was not possible to sleep under those conditions. The Dockmaster and his staff were very helpful but I could not take the pounding. I would not recommend spending a night on the boat in this marina unless there are better more protected slips available.

Really nice Marina and helpful staff. The restaurant Fresh Salt was excellent. We would stay here again and recommend the marina to other boaters.

A little rough inside the Marina. Excellent staff. Excellent dinner at Salt. Good diesel fuel prices and easy pump out.

Great service and amenities are good. Decent exercise facility and clean showers and bathrooms. Easy stop when cruising east or west on LIS.

We had a great weekend there. The marina personnel were very friendly and were helpful with docking and general information. We had a couple's massage that was super relaxing!

Had a wonderful stay. The staff were very helpful - David went out of his way to help us get situated and comfortable. Beautiful marina - Beautiful location.

The staff of the marina and hotel could not have been more helpful and pleasant. The amenities (pool, locker rooms and restaurant) were top notch. The surrounding area had much to offer in the way of places to go and things to do, weather cooperating. Unfortunately, when we were there we encountered Gale Force Winds and rain for several days. Being so close to the mouth of the CT River left the marina quite unprotected form the wind and were quite "battered" in our slip for 2 days. Lines were snapping on the boats all around us needing replacement constantly. We had to get a room in the hotel because I became sea sick on the boat in the slip and remaining on board was not an option.

Lovely place with friendly helpful status. The showers are part of a spa with indoor and outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna. Truly a five star marina.

Excellent facilities. Dockhand who greeted us was knowledgeable and told us everything we needed to know. Salt restaurant was also excellent.

Excellent marina. Great staff

Great staff and very clean facilities.

Very helpful Dock hands, very good food at the restaurant, beautiful well maintained marina...

Saybrook Point is a beautiful location with top notch amenities. The staff is exceptionally welcoming and helpful. The marina is in excellent condition. I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 stars, because the marina is not so well protected. The swells from the sound and passing boats ricocheted throughout the marina even on a very calm day. I would avoid the outside of the fuel dock and would be apprehensive in any kind of wind and weather even on the inside. Aside from this challenge, I highly recommend a stay here. We had a very nice experience and will be back.

I would not recommend the marina if you plan to stay on the boat. The boats surge back and forth, violent at times. Did not sleep much that night. The Staff and Hotel facilities were great.

We really enjoyed our stay at Saybrook. The Marina and resort are beautiful and very well maintained. I loved the dockside restaurant and especially appreciated the beautiful gardens and pond around the grounds. Service at the marina and restaurant was excellent! Thanks Cooper for you hard work on the dock. Relaxing and fun!

Nice marina and facilities. Good staff. Free shuttle to town. Bicycles and pools if you want the exercise.

I Tavel from the Keys thru Maine. Best service.

Great staff, full use of resort facilities included in dockage. Beautiful marina

Really nice marina for transients. You basically get use of the whole resort. Docks are nice and stable with good electric and water. Wifi was a bit spotty. Free shuttle into town. Great restaurant onsite. Really helpful dockmaster. Would absolutely come back next time we are in the area.

Great dock service and restaurant

Great inn and marina amenities but not well sheltered from the wind and resulting wave action or boats that ignore the no wake zones

First class facility all the way!! Free shuttle into town and complimentary bikes. Indoor and outdoor pools, fitness center, restaurant, and beautiful shower facilities! We'll be back !!

Beautiful, well maintained marina, professional attentive staff, we had a great stay!

Very nice maina and Resort. Clean, great Dock hands and staff, good restuarants, pool, free shuttle into town. One complaint - lousy internet service!

the staff is really nice, the resort/hotel is nice. the only complaints i can come up with are the indoor pool has a funk that made our bathing suits smell. The marina basin has a decent amount of floating debris with some dead fish. i believe the many dock staff could do more to clean out the basin.

Marina was beautiful, clean, immaculate. The staff was very helpful and tried in every way to accommodate my wife and I. After arriving they confirmed my beam dimensions, then directed me to a slip. After some monumental attempts to maneuver in, they determined that my boat would not properly fit ! I then had to move to another slip which was of the proper size. After a long voyage in poor weather, it was not what I expected.

Wonderful staff and accommodations
