June 10, 2025Disappointing Experience at Barber Marina: Not Worth the Hype
I'm a seasoned sailor from Alabama, and I was really looking forward to trying out Barber Marina after hearing all the great things about it. Unfortunately, my experience was a letdown. The marina itself is beautiful, no doubt about that - the location on the Intracoastal Waterway is stunning, and the facilities are top-notch. However, the service was subpar. I had to wait for over an hour to get my boat serviced, and when I finally got to talk to one of the technicians, he seemed completely uninterested in helping me. The ship store was also understocked, and the staff seemed overwhelmed. I was expecting a lot more from a 'world-class' marina like Barber Marina. The 400 slip dry storage building and the full service boat yard are impressive, but it's not worth the hassle of dealing with the unfriendly staff. Maybe I just caught them on a bad day, but I won't be back. With so many other great marinas in the area, I'd recommend looking elsewhere. The Wi-Fi internet service was also spotty, and the restrooms could have been cleaner. Overall, I'd give Barber Marina 2 stars - it's got potential, but it needs to work on its customer service.
