I recently purchased a new vessel and contacted King Harbor Marine to secure a slip. Initially, the…read moreprocess seemed straightforward. We purchased a 25-foot boat with a 9-foot beam, so when we were shown available slips, I expressed concern about whether the boat would fit. We were given several options at the same quoted rate, and I specifically asked if we could have a backup option in case the original slip was too narrow. When the boat arrived, it became clear that the original slip would not accommodate the vessel's width, so we moved into the second slip option that had been presented to us. Everything appeared to be fine until I saw the monthly withdraw that was approximately $250 higher than the amount stated in our contract. After contacting the marina, I was informed by the manager, Jamessa E Henderson, that they had made a mistake and that the second slip actually carried a higher monthly rate. At no point was I informed of this price difference, nor was I asked to sign a revised agreement authorizing the higher charge. The marina simply began charging the increased amount without my knowledge or consent. When I explained my concerns, Janisha acknowledged the mistake and agreed that I should be reimbursed for the overcharges. However, when my deposit was returned, the promised reimbursement was not included. As a result, I have sought legal advice regarding the unauthorized charges. Beyond the billing issue, I was also disappointed by the atmosphere at the marina. The security staff frequently appeared to harass local kids who were fishing, which created an unwelcoming environment. We have since moved our boat to Port Royal and have been much happier. The facilities are nicer, the rates are lower, and the security staff are far more professional and respectful. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend King Harbor Marine.

The staff here are professional, courteous, and genuinely make you feel welcome from day one. The security team is especially outstanding. They're always friendly, happy to answer any questions, and make you feel like they truly care about the people keeping their boats here. It's clear they take safety seriously, with plenty of security cameras throughout the marina to help deter theft and give boat owners peace of mind. If you're looking for a marina that values customer service, professionalism, and security, I highly recommend Port Royal Marina. It's refreshing to see a marina that goes above and beyond for its tenants.

I can get to my boat anytime and any day of the week without problems. All of the people I have met on my dock are friendly and courteous. The staff that cleans the docks are friendly too. There are monthly wine and cheese tastings and they are open to anyone that I chose to bring with me.
