Always a great visit to The Wharf Marina. The staff is incredible you feel like you are at a truly professional marina from hailing them on VHF until you depart. The facilities are clean. Waking up and looking at the Washington Monument is incredible. The access to incredible restaurants and activities at The District Wharf area is amazing. I will definitely be returning.

Great experience we booked because of proximity to Fireworks and were not disappointed. Marina staff were incredibly attentive and would check a few times a day to ensure you were okay and bring ice if you needed it. Reggie and his crew were awesome ..

Great location but limited services for transients. As a transient (stayed 1 week) we were placed WAY AWAY from the main marina facilities. The close location to restaurants, bars, water taxi (for tours or to just go to Old Town Alexandria), and even to the great marine store at Washingto Marina next door, was fantastic. But it was a long walk to pick up packages and to use the laundry at the main marina office. And Wifi at the transient docks was spotty at best. So 5 stars for location & 1 star for services. At the price they charge to transients they really need to up their game.

Incredible location in DC at the Wharf. This marina puts you within walking distance to incredible restaurants and shopping. There are events in the are and it is just a short trip to the National Mall that can be done by Uber, scooter, or walking. The floating docks we were at were nice and new. The dockhands were very helpful as we approached in identifying a slip, taking into consideration our preferences for slip location, helping us locate our slip, and were available to help with dock lines. They also made themselves available for questions about the area and gave us a welcome packet with information about the area. We did not try to take advantage of laundry facilities. The WiFi was good enough to stream videos for my kids on their iPads. The restrooms/showers were on a floating platform with just two units. They were clean, but are likely not adequate when the docks are full on a big weekend like the 4th of July. It looked like they had pumpkin facilities, but we did not take advantage of that.

Very nice place and location. Employee working the front could have been little nicer upon greeting. It seems like transient slips would be a strong offering for them. It seemed like it was more of an annoyance. The docks and everything are very clean and some other employees we encountered on the market docks were more attentive and helpful. I don’t traditionally write bad reviews as I have my own business. Just needs some training and better instructions on entering the Marina as there are many docks.

We are self contained and stayed on a mooring. Shore access was great. The wharf has many restaurants and is close to the Mall for sight seeing. There were 3 dinghy docks in the immediate area for various needs. One at the park on the west shore, and two at the Wharf side at either end of the basin. Pumpout service is available by pumpout boat or at the docks.

When booking marinas, we look for certain criteria, especially when paying top dollar per foot to stay there. The Wharf Marina advertises laundry services and internet. Upon docking, John the dockhand - very nice, simply was surprised I asked about both and indicated they had neither. We could get laundry at their other marina, which was pretty far away to carry laundry and internet did not exist for transients. This marina has a far way to go before they can be charging the prices they are asking without any amenities. In this day and age, who doesn't have Wifi for people, but certainly you cannot advertise things that are not correct. I would not recommend for transients.

Adil on September 22nd, 2020:

Clean marina with great service. Dock hand was waiting at our slip and guided us to our slip. He was very professional. I did have to dock at the pump out on arrival to find a crew member who had to find a proper slip for my boat. On arrival I called and was advised to find a crew member which required me to first dock at the pump out location. Would have been easier if the person on the phone asked a crew member to guide us right to our slip. Overall a great experience.

Ben was great. Unfortunately after he departed at 10 the person from B26 on the end had his friends pull in and tie up first by Cantina Bambina then directly behind us blasting music. Very foul lyrics at extreme volume. No care was given to other boaters. The group eventually left after a few hours.

Stay itself was great. The people were friendly, helpful, and easy to work with. The slip itself was essentially a finger pier, which considering how far back in the channel we were, is fine. There was water and electric. Scheduling was a slightly different ball game. I was attempting to leverage the benefit of being a slip holder at another Oasis facility, and there was lots of confusion on the how or what. Ultimately scheduled without the benefit, but took lots of phone calls in between.

A Note from the Marina:

We appreciate this review and the opportunity to improve. As an Oasis Marinas Cruising Club member, slipholders at participating Oasis Marinas are entitled to 2 free nights annually at another participating Oasis Marinas property. However, holiday weekends and special events are excluded from the free nights. This stay was over the July 4th weekend, which is why the free nights could not be used. We hope to welcome this boater back to our dock again in 2020 to deliver another stellar stay!

Great facility overall, power pedestals not working and bird poop everywhere were concerning given the price. Simply installing dog cutouts or owls might solve the bird problem. Roger is a phenomenal dock hand and ensured that we found power and had the needed facilities close by. Recommend it to anyone looking for a transient location with access to most needed items minus service for engines or mechanicals, shopping and dining close by are top tier and worth investigating.

Stayed on a mooring for 5 nights. Fantastic location right next to Washington DC. Close to everything -- metro station, Safeway grocery, tons of restaurants and the National Mall. Dinghy dock is five minutes away located between the Y and Z docks where the full time, live-aboards are docked. It's behind a locked gate so seemed very secure. Free laundry was a bonus. Only downside was that there was a lot of construction going on with pounding machinery right on the wharf. Also, it's right under the helicopter flight path so you'll be hearing the whirr of helicopter blades quite frequently. We'd stay here again.

The dock people were very helpful. Power cord available at the slip. Slips not easily identifiable when approaching from the water. Concrete floating slips were large and clean. For price paid, had the following issues: ONE portable bathhouse not acceptable for number of slips. One separate toilet and one shower room with toilet was not air-conditioned and showerhead had to be held to keep water flowing. Faucet difficult to regulate water temp. No WiFi as advertised. Need to take a cab or Uber to get to second set of bath facilities and office at sister (Old Gangplank) Marina.

Bathroom facilities are pathetic. Located on small boat with only two unisex stalls. For the money paid per slip, rates no stars. Marina and slips were fine, but the bathroom facilities were terrible.

Great place, enjoyed our time there. The dinghy dock service is superb with two locations, one very close to the fish market. We were on the moorings. Very pleasant.
