Kim,

Well summarized above, just to add a few notes: We stayed one night 4 weeks ago and it seemed we got a better deal at $170 from the call center for a 48 cat than some late afternoon arrivals that didn't have a reservation. The slips were nearly full by sunset and I heard a late arriving 44 mono was paying $230 without a reservation. Marriott told us they would be flexible with a day leeway as long as they had the room to do so.

The cost was inclusive of garbage, water and power unlike VGYH. Also, don't forget the resort access and clean towels!

Of significance was the impact of the north swell that came up shortly after sunset that rocked the marina hard. The charter didn't have snubbers, so we did the best we could with all fenders out and seven dock lines. Even the 90' Hargrave was rocking pretty good.

The newbies didn't sleep well, but we sure did. Being rocked to sleep in a marina is far less restless than being rocked at anchor for the people responsible for the boat.

We did mid-trip stays for one night in Spanish town in '14 and '15, but the consensus was we would go back to Scrub next year despite the swell.

Regards,
Brett
