Quite the hefty price but its what you would expect from a yacht club. However, we didnt receive as much as we wanted to from it. The experience was bland per day, only consisting of a pool, low tier gym, yoga room and bar that are often closed, and a dock. The only thing Im missing here is the restaurant that you never get a discount or anything for despite being a member, and the tennis courts, which are great fun. Nice place to bring the family and (1) friend too. Good tasting food. The view was of the houses surrounding. However, with the remodeling going on I believe that the club
