Safe Harbor Newport Shipyard

First class marina! Great facilities in excellent condition, very responsive and accommodating staff, and convenient location. A working marina, onsite restaurant, Ship’s Store and more. Really enjoyed my stay and looking forward to returning.

Always an enjoyable professional and fun experience.

Courteous and professional

Beautiful marina! Extremely clean and close to downtown shopping and restaurants and far away enough to get a good nights sleep! Look forward to next season!

It has been a great couple of nights. Wonderful way to end the season before we head south again for the winter. Kudos to Charlie and the dock hands !

Great Marina, helpful staff and a short walk to restaurants and shops.

Great.. would stay longer if we could.

Great facility, Great Staff.

Charlie and Team were focused on our complete satisfaction. Great accommodations.

The staff, from the top down was very helpful and accommodating. Charlie, the Dockmaster was excellent with keeping the lines of communication open and returning calls promptly. A very good experience!

Marina staff were fantastic. Will definitely be back.

Great stay again. Easy getting in thanks to Charlie and the gang.

Charlie and his dock masters are the best. Fantastic marina, great location. Top notch

Dockmaster Charlie was fantastic and extremely helpful. Location cannot be beat. It is a working shipyard, but the amenities are quite serviceable although it can be quite the walk depending on where your boat is tied up. All the staff and yard workers were great, friendly and helpful

Charlie was very accommodating and attentive...great service. Highly recommend a stay there.

Our stay was great. The dockhand was very helpful.

Its always great staying at Newport shipyard. They are Amazing . Great marina. Great Staff

Nice people great help with the lines and a delicious place for breakfast or lunch!!

The team is always friendly and helpful and work hard to ensure you have a good stay.

Staff was great. The onsite cafe had a great breakfast. Docks were in good condition. The WiFi was next to unusable.

Excellent marina, great staff! I came in solo on a very small (for Newport) sailboat, was met at the dock, given assistance tying up, and had all my questions answered. I used a free loaner car to get gas. That is a great feature and was much appreciated.

Tim was helpful the morning we came in to set things up for us. When we pulled out a few days later, the wind was strong so he pulled up in an inflatable to help guide us past another boat if needed. Dockmaster Charlie was also very nice. When we came in that first day, James and Kevin were great with the lines and helping to set up power and water. We also had a good experience with the security crew each time we walked back to the marina. Brian and Corey were friendly and respectful. On top of that, we had a wonderful time in Newport for four days. Great town. I should also add that, as members of another Safe Harbor marina, Abby at the Safe Harbor Concierge was instrumental in making this trip happen so kudos to her as well.

Great staff and very helpful. We are a small vessel in the midst of beautiful super yachts and we were treated very well, which we truly appreciate. From dock lines to pay if the land, help was offered. Charlie and his team are the best!

Great communication from the dockmaster and docking help at arrival. A layout of the marina was sent so it was clear where we were to dock. Location was convenient to the transportation center for busses. The only negative was that we asked for a pumpout. They have pumpout connections on every floating dock so a guy came with a hose and performed the pumpout quickly. As a Safe Harbor member I expected the pumpout to be without charge like every other SH marina that I have visited. Not so, I got a $25 charge plus tax which is their flat charge up to 100 gallons. I was not told about this charge ahead of time so it was an unpleasant surprise. So, visitors beware!

Pascal was great w directions and help docking. Some very expensive gel coat tied up here.

One of our favorite places, and it was great as always!

Fantastic spot! Very helpful and having Belle’s for breakfast was a treat.

(date??): Crew there was great; very pleasant and helpful!!! bathroom facilities were less than expected...shared public, not marina men's and lady's...a bummer. docks and such were great. great protected location. hope to go again sometime this year! .... 2020: well, we went again for the 4th and again it was outstanding! 3 boats shared a finger dock (comfortably) which was unexpected and appreciated! Watched sunset from the marina, awesome. Breakfast at Belle's, awesome! can't wait to go back... ......... Mem Day wkend 2021...forecast nothing to brag about, but they (Tony) let us arrive early Friday so we got one good day. same great attention to transients.s ------- Mem Day wkend 2023...we stayed once or twice last year but did not update the review. Charlie and his crew are awesome as ever! Changes: bathroom facilities trailer!- welcome addition. Good security. Previous stays we had always been on the north side of the yard, along the bridge road (very protected from winds but tight.) ..this time on the south side. Easy in/out but the fish pier was right across the way and ....we knew it all weekend.. beyond this, it's a great marina/shipyard. super impressive super yacht operations...and Belle's is great (go early). see you in a few months!!

Been to Newport many times but first staying at the Shipyard. Awesome experience and extremely helpful and accommodating staff. Charlie, the Dockmaster, is simply the best!. Can't wait to get back to Newport and stay at the Safe Harbor Newport Shipyard.

The marina staff was very helpful upon our arrival! They assisted with our docking and made sure we had our electrical and water hook ups. They were very friendly at the store and while checking in.

We stayed here for two days. Dockmaster Charlie and his dock staff were great. They are always ready to give a helping hand and share local knowledge about Newport. The office staff was also very welcoming and gave us some great recommendations for dinner. It's an easy 10 min walk to the heart of Newport. We will be back for sure.

Always great service at the shipyard. Charlie and Tim treat us and our beat up 1986 30 foot sailboat like it's the brand new 100 foot behemoth next to us. Had fun this time exploring the "Point" neighborhood of Newport which somehow we had never gotten to before. Just north of the marina.

In the heart of Newport, but not in the crowded and noisy areas. This is a professional sailing and working dock. If you want to see some of the big boats of racing, this is it. Restrooms are clean, shower is sparse and tight but serviceable.

Friendly. Helpful. World Class.

I was traveling alone and Charlie and his team were super helpful getting me in to a quiet, comfortable slip for a few nights Great fitness center on sight as well. Safe Harbor does everything top shelf

Charlie and the entire staff were courteous and helpful.

Excellent communication, great dockhands.

Staff were courteous, friendly, helpful and on time. Free beer and wine happy hour was a delight and a chance to meet interesting sailors. Would have given 5 star rating but for the lack of hot water in the showers.

Charlie and the dock staff were amazing!

Best marina staff anywhere!

We arrived under perfect conditions and there were 3 people to greet me at the dock. Employees couldn't have been more accommodating. Walk to restaurant's and shops was a lot closer than I thought it would be. We will definitely be back again.

Fantastic location and dock manager and staff are all super nice and helpful. Great breakfast spot at the Marina and short walk to all the stores etc. had a mechanic fix a minor issue for me too. Will be back next year

We picked Safe harbor newport Shipyard for our seasonal stay and can’t say enough about it. Charlie and the dock team run a tight operation and are exceptionally accommodating. Best part for the crews is free beer Friday and their cookouts they do once in a while. It will be our home in Newport every season!

They sent 2 strong guys to take our lines when we came in, and they were needed. You can beat the attention.

Always enjoy our stay. The staff is great! The marina is always quiet. Would highly recommend.

great staff. Charlie emailed and called me the day before we came and gave me a map of the marina and what slip and tie to expect. was met by 2 dockhands and no surprises. Thx. Rick

Even though we arrived out of season (April) we managed to get everything done that we had arranged with Mike and his team. Very professional, efficient and friendly. Charlie and the dock team were very welcoming and proficient. One of the best yard experiences we’ve had. Well done.

All good as expected.

Nice facility with all the amenities you could want. Definitely revisiting. Staff service was impeccable. Could spend a week.

Great spot - great staff

Great location and terrific staff.

We enjoyed our stay. The floating docks are tops. It's less than 1/5 mi. from downtown. So you have privacy, yet are close to the action. We had dinner at Belle's cafe and it was excellent. Open for dinner on weekends only. The only downside was they charge for a pump out.

An excellent marina, with a great dock crew. Wonderful restaurant overlooking the water. Best lobster roll ever!

Super nice marina and shipyard away from the noise but close enough to city center. Great restaurant Belle’s. However not being told that pump out is done for a $25 fee and being charged after the fact on cc is never pleasant.

This marina has it all-great staff, great facilities and believe it or not great showers (my tell all!). Very well run marina even the food was outstanding.

Dockhands brought a team of 4 guys and a tender and worked like a well oiled machine to put me in a great spot. Newport is my favorite and Safe Harbor has an excellent location that is in the action but still quiet with beautiful boats to enjoy the view with.

All the staff was super helpful and made our stay a terrific one.

Awesome stay. Aside from being right in Newport with all the shops and amenities, this marina crew is top notch! The communication and attention to our needs was outstanding.

Great location Best breakfast

we came in due to some bad weather and the staff was extremely helpful even tho they haven't fully opened up yet. I will definitely stay again anytime I come thru newport.

From the minute we arrived we knew there was a big difference here. A Nor'easter was bearing down on us and the staff was incredibly prepared. There were 2 employees at the dock waiting to handle lines. They also helped us connect to the power (including bringing a 50Amp extension cord), and brought us an additional breastline. At one point during the storm the power went down in a 40kt rain-filled gale - but there was an immediate visit from a dockhand with a replacement power supply. Every employee here has the most helpful attitude. We arrived just ahead of the storm, but decided to spend FOUR nights. We've never experienced such a well trained, well managed marina. Add to that the fact that you will be docked in and around some of the most incredible yachts from all over the world, and that the marina is just a ten-second walk to the beautiful city of Newport. Your stay here will spoil you for any other marina - guaranteed. You need to stay here to appreciate it.

Good facility. Helpful staff. An off high season rate would be great..

Great, helpful staff. Easy walk to town.

Super place to stay. Three people waiting to help me tie up. Very impressive facilities.

Staff was courteous and helpful. Location is very good relative to Newport waterfront. Short walk to get there. Not too close to the hustle & bustle. Restrooms, showers and laundry were clean but very cramped and not up to the standards (as to size) for a world class facility such as this place.

Beautiful marina!! Mike and staff went above and beyond!! Excellent service. We'll definitely be back!!!

Awesome. Great people, attentive and helpful. Thank you!

This place is great. A (no so) hidden gem. We'll keep coming back.

dock staff was excellent, guard at entrance very nice and helpful and the food at Belle's was awesome. Great time and nice location!

Very attentive staff

Our expectations were high based on reviews and price per foot. The location is excellent and staff friendly but the operation does not run seamlessly with communication. Our slip required the use of an extension cord to connect to power that only delivered 220 v. . Granted we have a sophisticated isotransformer that performs best with 240 v delivery but we have had no problems with power at multiple marinas. Our problem was addressed but not resolved until 48 hours later so we paid for electric while supplementing our power with our generator or by limiting our usage to one air conditioner. We were satisfied with the resolution but not the timeliness. The advertised courtesy vehicles were actually 100.00 per day (due to covid) and we were surprised that pumpouts exceeded $25.00 . We did not leave with the impression of great customer service based on experience with other marinas.

The Shipyard is a major yachting facility for a very good reason. Everyone is skilled, pleasant and helpful. The facilities are spacious and well run. Highly recommend.

Very helpful staff Clean facilities Not cheap

Nice place and location. The dock hands are great.

Dock and dock hands were good. Restaurant was good also. Slip was too small.. Person at the front desk did not know much and we had to ask about everything to get answers.. (Bathrooms, internet, showers). Terrible smell.. Internet was terrible.

Great location and the staff was very helpful.

Such a beautiful marina/shipyard! Loved it!

Great service, people and awesome facility. Special thanks to their dockmaster, Mike.

We came in for a night. Marina staff were Rock Stars! I wish I caught their names but they brought us in promptly and were very friendly. Another two staff members even brought us a gift bag which was great because I was in need of a coozie. Marina was nice as well. Only issue was this older gentleman taking pictures of us and our friends children In front of the store front. At one point even hiding behind a bush w a camera taking pics while we were on the dock. He was staying on a sail boat there. When we told the staff he immediately confronted the other guest to stop takin pics which we appreciated. A+ job to the staff.

Our stay last weekend to Newport Shipyard was great break from 3 months at home. The yard was extremely professional during these C 19 times were all living in. Owen was waiting when we arrived, guided us to our assigned slip and and assisted with docking. The yard location is perfect for any stay in Newport. From its location it’s a short walk to anywhere in town.

Beautiful marina with very friendly staff. We will definitely be back!!!

We came into Newport Shipyard for a weekend stay recently. Great help finding our slip. Upon arrival we were helped to get secured to the dock, and all powered up. Facilities are top notch, and couldn’t ask for better experience. The fact they cater to larger vessels shows in their professional approach to everything they do! The dock was nice and quiet at night, and we really enjoyed our stay.

Dock hands were fantastic, bathrooms/showers were immaculate Free beer friday on the main dock A bit pricey, but you are in Newport Our 4th visit there, will be back

Always friendly, polite and has the most interesting boats to look at!

Not enough can be said about the hard work that every member of the NSY Team puts into making the Shipyard the yachting hub it is today. Great facilities, world class service department and ship store, great environment for families and crew, Belle's Cafe has great food, and the close location to Downtown and Broadway makes this place a must go, by land or by sea!

Outstanding! Excellent facilities. Staff was very professional, courteous and friendly. Would definitely choose Newport Shipyard on a return trip to Newport!

We always enjoy our visits to Newport Shipyard. Great management team, great dock team, great service, great location.
