Excellent service. Skilled dock staff. Clean and modern bathrooms. Wonderful upper deck for great views of the harbor. Close and easy walk to the center of Newport. As in prior years, a lovely and pleasant stay

Everything was great, other than our placement on the dock, which was all the way in and when it was time to leave, we couldn't when we wanted to because of all the boats behind us, as we had to tie up and secure our dinghy on the boat.

Newport Yachting Center is our favorite Marina to visit. All of the staff are very friendly and professional. The Dockmaster Carter is so accommodating and helpful. Each time we visit there is always someone on the dock to welcome us and assist with tying up. Their restrooms are very clean. They have a rooftop deck to relax on and watch the sun set. They are centrally located to great restaurants and bars. On many a weekend evening there is usually a wedding taking place which is always enjoyable to watch or listen to the music. Would definitely recommend NYC if visiting Newport.
