Valencia Mar

[Mysteresailing]

Just received my renewal from Valencia Mar, No warning on the pending renewal just 2 days after our mooring expires I get a invoice for just short of double last years fee.

They have put the yearly fees up by a massive 68%,

Only warning of rate increases they gave was hidden in a news letter about there boat show sent in December 2019

Fee like they don’t want to retain there customers in the current climate, will be moving out as soon as lock down permits.

is the mar the marina .

 

[Mysteresailing]

It’s the name of the marina,

it’s not the one in town it’s right out on the end of the commercial port.

Other than the renewal hike how have you found the marina?

 

[Mysteresailing]

The marina is really clean and tidy, Now we have started to hire a car when we come out it makes life much easier,


The local of the marina from town is a trek and the bar onsite is very hit and miss when it’s open.
All the pontoons have been replaced and maintained to a very high standards.
My big complaint is with the communications from the marina,

masked to move to monthly pay and again no communications from them with a revised invoice.

 

[dune16]

Have you any experience of the North marina? We are currently in Burriana but looking to move further down for next season and like Valencia alot

 

[emandvee44]

Burriana is our marina of choice when we eventually get there. However we live not far away so access to airports from the marina is not required.
Have you looked at La Pobla de Farnals, much nearer to Valencia? Several foreign flag yachts in there.

We like Burriana but my boat was robbed in March during lockdown (2 new scooters, tool bag, wifi hotspot and cctv camera) and I think we will want a marina where access to pontoons is restricted to berth holders.

Have you tried Marina de Valencia the northern basin is usually full but normally space available in the southern basin.

We are down in Valencia Mar for a few days now. Lovely marina but very far from anything. The search continues

 

[dune16]

We spent a night in Marina de Valencia on our way back from Denia. North Marina. Loved it! Marina is very modern and clean. Marineros very friendly and helpful and restaurants, shops etc just a short walk away. Also, a big plus for us, feels very secure. Card access for pontoons etc. We wish we'd put the boat there now instead of Burriana.

Dune16,

Whereabouts was your boat when it was robbed... near the dry dock? Or at the Port Naval club? I don't mind the more commercial look of the marina but it does worry me having the boat so far away and not being able to get to it as often as a UK located boat...
