Easy access to slips. Easy access to hotel lobby and amenities (including ice) via golf cart. Palm Beach access included in slip fee. Great place to take the kids!

Great first trip for us. Easy in and out. Excercise caution in the channel, favor port side on entry. Oyster beds on starboard. Go all the way past Marker "28" to avoid shoaling before turning for marina.
Bring a welcome mat to place on the dock and a hose with sprayer. Lots of bird droppings but the boat stayed fairly clean. Geat pool, swim up bar, spa and attractions. .

Love the proximity to the gardens. Bath house is a bit of a walk, and check in at the hotel was different. They will send a golf cart down to pick you up. My only complaint is that the dock could use a good power wash. It was slick with bird droppings. The hotel staff was very nice.

Slips are very isolated so expect a long hike if you need staff help. Free ice. Access to wave pool was welcomed by the kids.
