It's been years since I had been at Rosario marina. The staff was nice when talking with them on the phone. When arriving it was a bit of a cluster. We had arrived just shortly after 1:00 and there was no one that could help direct us to where we could dock even though we had reservations. Being a larger boat than the average in the marina (63') it would have been nice to of had better communication where we could dock. As the Marina matures it would be nice to have a better diagram of the slips or advance slip assignments. The website has a diagram but it takes a bit to find it. Found the marina facilities in good shape, however the grass was cut, but very rough. While the mansion is not part of this marina any longer it still has a very enchanting draw to it, esp. from a distance. Of coarse the view from the marina is a million dollar view looking down Eastsound. We enjoyed the more casual atmosphere than the larger marinas on the west end of the islands offer. At least for our stay the other boaters were more friendly and even had a community bonfire that night and s'mores. I look forward to visiting again next year and wish this group the best of luck fine tuning the marina operations.

We’ve loved the peaceful setting and beautiful views at Rosario Marina, and have been coming here for years. Sadly, it’s no longer a place we can recommend. Marina fees are among the highest in the area (plus 25% cancellation fees), but amenities have declined—bathrooms are in poor condition, there’s no lighting near the grassy area at night, and upkeep around the marina owned grounds has clearly slipped. Trash services are no longer provided for boaters or dog owners (poop bags piling up under signs!), and there’s no place to grab coffee or breakfast anymore. While the restaurant has improved greatly (and we absolutely recommend it!), we were told by staff the new marina’s focus is on long-term moorage rather than seasonal boaters. We’re grateful for the kind staff who welcomed us on arrival, but overall, we’re disappointed and won’t be returning.

Marina Response:
We do have a great and friendly staff. Thanks for noticing. The lawn is perfectly mowed and the restrooms are cleaned daily. We have an heated outdoor pool, lawn games and BBQs. In addition we have a restaurant that serves lunch and diner and a laundry facility. We do have a great and friendly staff. You seem maybe too old and cantankerous for boating. We accept trach in small amount for free at the office. Our Reservation Policy is 24 hours. Our moorage Rates are 3 dollars per foot. All of these things are very common. Half of our marina is long term and half transient moorage. We are not the same business as the Mansion.

Rosario Harbor has a way of pulling you in, whether you’re just passing through or sticking around for a bit.The marina’s well-kept, the staff is great, the views are unreal, you might spot some whales, and the whole place just has a grounded vibe that’s hard to beat. The Grill is a pleasant surprise, way above your typical marina fare, and a lot of fun. As for the occasional complaints you might read elsewhere… hard to say. Maybe some folks showed up on the wrong tide, or just didn’t take a deep enough breath.

Things are starting to open again at Rosario. Very pretty grounds and the harbor employees are friendly.

Marina Response:
Thanks so much for for coming Pete! We have been putting lots of hard work getting things opened up again!

It's hard to be unbiased since I was a frequent visitor under the old management. Some things I noticed with the new owners that may be small but are annoying are 1. $10 fee to dispose of garbage 2. $10 fee for power. The mansion isn't open either but there is no discount for the limited amenities. It's still an awesome place to visit, though.

Marina Response:
The Mansion is not part of our business. The Marina is separate from the Resort at the Mansion. It is under renovation. All our amenities are open. Showers, Restrooms, laundry room, and Great new Resturant, and our outdoor pool. We are happy to take small bags of garbage for free. The 10$ self service charge is intended to give boaters 24 hour access to garbage. We have had problems with people dumping g large amounts of garbage so unfortunately this is necessary. We are proud of our amenities and feel they surpass the amenities available at most of the marinas in the San Juan's. We also have company's on store offering, bike, kayak, and moped rentals, rental cars and fishing charters. These things are an extra fee. Thanks for coming.

We love everything this year. The restaurant had delicious food fresh seafood and delicious well crafted cocktails. The docks have been updated, bathrooms and showers have been refreshed with new tile. All the staff was very friendly and helpful. The yurts and new camping look fun and family friendly with new picnic tables. Can’t wait to come back!

Hayden was amazing. Very helpful. The few adminities they had were clean and tidy. Pool is closed indefinitely due to permitting. So the price is pretty expensive for what it was.

Best docks and dock-side services around. The greater amenities need work...store has very eclectic selection, restaurant needs to reopen...to justify the fairly high $/foot moorage cost.

Marina is great. Terry met us on arrival and gave helpful briefing and update on resort status. Showers are better but need hooks and niche for soap and shampoo. Cascade Bay was open but menu was very limited. Service delightful however. We love Rosario and really hope it gets the investment it still needs.

Nice and peaceful. The grill was open and the employees were very nice. The marina showers were free and the water stayed warm. Looking forward to returning when the mansion reopens and they have more services and dining options.

A great marina, still running well while the rest of the resort is undergoing renovations. I look forward to seeing the place when renovations are complete.

Friendly staff. Nice marina. Very nice to have bathrooms with free showers. Recommend the addition of some hooks in the bathroom. Soap dispenser in bathroom was empty when we arrived and the next morning.

Wow. This was our first visit to Rosario. I am new to docking/undocking my boat and Terry the harbor master and crew were beyond helpful. When I asked for dock assist leaving during intermittent gusts, Terry took the time to listen to my plan, offer advice and then gave us a helpful push away. Thank you, Terry! We are heading back in a few days with a new crew and can't wait to see y'all again. Marina and restrooms clean. Gift shops had a great variety of goods. Lovely grounds. Friendly supportive customer service.

Overall we enjoyed our stay in Rosario Marina. It's under new ownership and not fully operational. The Cascade Grill is the only open restaurant and serves a limited menu of sandwiches and pizza. The pizza was good, nothing special. They didn't seem to have a cocktail menu, but appear to serve wine and cocktails made from store bought mixes. We got lattes in the morning from the store, and while they have a fancy espresso machine, I'm not sure they know how to use it correctly, the coffees were average. Overall food and beverages seem pricey, in-line with other marinas in the area, but nothing really special and just mediocre quality. The docks themselves are in good shape and seemed quite wide and easy to maneuver into. The fuel dock is limited, slow and expensive. The views are gorgeous and everyone was friendly!

Great Marina staff and dock condition. New ownership could do more to incentivize visiting even when the resort is under renovation, but the quietness is equally appealing.

Very helpful marina personnel. Great bathrooms and showers. Will be a lot nicer once the restaurant opens in July and the new ownership finishes all the renovations on the pool and spa.

I love ROSARIO! We have been staying at the resort for years and we are super excited for the improvements to come. We have never stayed at the marina before and during this difficult time where everyone is social distancing we decided to give it a go. The docks are fantastic, so much room. A little rough on your bare feet so be sure to have dock shoes. The shower facilities could use some work, so we are hopeful that is in the plans. The grill was open and the wait staff made it feel like a true vacation. Especially Hugo, he is new and just so kind. Really connects with people. Water, power, a gas and visitor dock too. There is even a family of otters that fight under the docks, it was hilarious. We had so much fun, we stayed an extra night. We will definitely be back.
