Beautiful little harbor marina with picture postcard laid back island vibe feel to it. Super friendly community. Marina staff awesome people. Very friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back! 😊🛥️🏝️

What a great marina! Very well kept, and everything is in order. A super positive change from the previous years. No more clutter on the docks is a huge bonus, and Sara, the dock master, was nothing but super pleasant and helpful through our entire stay. Can't wait to come back! Just wish the bar was open more frequently.

Everything was perfect. Great little marina!

Very nice Old Florida feel. Staff and boaters all very nice and helpful.only problem is that I paid four times the monthly rate and so I paid $2,850 for two weeks which would have paid for two months if I made the reservation without DOCKWA. Everyone recommended that I not use DOCKWA. Using it cost us quadruple the rate other boaters paid. Ron Campbell, MV/Rachel

Sara the Dockmaster was very responsive and helpful during our stay. Several good restaurants walking distance and a great sunset bar at the point.

There was some confusion at the start of our stay because there wasn’t a dockmaster. However they have hired one now and she is making a lot of positive contributions. They have working dockside pump out. The showers aren’t fancy, but functional. The pool is very nice. The property is located in desirable location close to restaurants and grocery
Marina Response:
Thank you for your stay, and hope you come back again. We here at the marina and resort are continuing to make positive changes here😊

I’m not sure why people gave this place negative reviews. It is not the Ritz, and if you need a dock master and army of dock help to get your boat situated, this isn’t your place. It was quiet and clean. The people in the marina were friendly. It has showers, laundry, WiFi, and even a really cool beach bar. I would stay again.

No organization at all. People gets on unpaid docks. No one answers the phone. No ice, no nothing!
Marina Response:
I highly apologize for the inconvenience. I am the new dock master, just started less than a week ago and I have already cleaned things up and got things organized. Please feel free to try us out again in the future.

We were disappointed because the assigned slip was taken by someone else and there was no dockmaster to correct the issue. This was a common complaint at Banana Bay
Marina Response:
I apologize for the inconvenience, however, I am the new dock master and things are cleaned up and in order now. Please consider trying us again in the future.

Love this location but they need a Dockmaster. My family has been coming here for 40 years and we’ve never seen the marina like this. We showed up with someone in our slip multiple days in a row. Some shore power outlets are not working. They need someone to take control before things get worse. But the dock is sturdy and well protected. Still the best sunset in the keys!

Visit to Banana Bay Marina was good. Was able to secure slip 10 after they originally assigned slip 6. I prefer slip 10 or 12 due to my location at the Marathon Key Beach Club. Banana Bay should spend a few bucks to level out their drive in front of docks and the trailer parking area. Over all experience was good as usual. We have been coming there for over 15 years.
Marina Response:
Thank you for the kind words. We look forward to seeing you. Thanks for choosing Banana Bay.

The food was good the people are nice but from Sunday to Friday only cleaned our room once and the dock was a disaster I payed 400 dollar for a dock slip and never got to park in my slip and my boat had the Garmin stolen and just ripped right off my boat and some other stuff was taken as well need better security I have over a hundred thousand dollars worth of gear and I don't want to be spending 2 or 3 hours carrying it up to the room everyday I think maybe no locals should be able to come in and make only available to guests because that would cut way down on theifs but when I go back to the keys I'm going to rent a bed and breakfast with my own personal dock cause I don't want to be worried about stuff being stolen or my spot that I pay for because I didn't get to use it none and all that the room was ok but I booked a room looking towards water from balcony and they put me on other side but it was fun if I get better security and a dock master then I would stay again just had to many mistakes no offense but I should get what I paid for and I'm on vacation at a resort I should not have to worry about getting robbed by locals while I sleep

Our 13th year in a row keeping our boat there. Quiet, protective area with everything you may need.

by Brett M. - Verified user on Jul 25, 2025
There was no dock master to be found. The weekend crowds that keep their barely floating antiques in the marina long term still show up on Friday and sprawl out across the docks. One slip has a deep freezer and multiple grills on the dock. Garbage can overflowing from the weekend was finally emptied on Wednesday. We had to leave a day earlier than planned and went to front desk at hotel to inquire about being credited for the unused day and was told that the hotel manager is the “acting” dock master, never saw the person in my 9 days there. It is a beautiful marina that is going down hill with the live abourd and weekend people taking over the docks and poor to non existent onsite management.

Brett, get with the Dock-master, Chris. He is willing to extend a one time offer to satisfy your disrupted experience from other patrons.

Great! Nice clean marina. Easy exit and entrance!

by Paul J. - Verified user on Jun 21, 2025
Marina is fine, but you need an accessible Dock master who returns phone calls. The next issue is your live aboards junking up your Marina. Beautiful Marina with junk accumulating around their boats.

Dockmaster Tom was very pleasant and accommodating.

Our stay was so enjoyable we extended another month for a total two month stay. Daily rates are high, but the monthly rate is reasonable. Pool, spa were nice and well maintained. Shower and toilet facility is good with plans to improve. Hot water was immediate! The Pointe Bar serving wine and beer is open Thursday through Sunday (more days would be better). Views from the point are incredible including the sunset. Dockmaster is friendly and accommodating when possible. Marina also has BBQ area for mariners. Occasional movie nights and sports game gatherings are held dockside. Fuel is available at nearby Faro Blanco Marina.

It's like a small town. Everyone is friendly and helpful.. Dock party. The dockmaster called us to make sure we made it to our next destination when we left in a little bit of weather..
