Neptune Marina

I’ve worked in the marina since the early 80’s and seen all the changes.
If you are planning to get a slip there, DONT!
Besides beyond deteriorated docks and bathrooms the Dockmaster has quite a reputation of being a prick and today it was my turn to deal with him. I parked to work on one of my customers boats with my work vehicle well marked and well known. A phone call from the Dockmaster came in as a message about 20 minutes later which I didn’t immediately see. A about 15 min later one of the other boat workers called and said my work can was being hooked up by a tow truck! Another boat worker told them I was on the way up to move the van but made no difference!
Here is the thing, about 2 months ago I spent over 40 hrs working there, I asked if there was any problems parking there and told by Eddie no issues since they knew me. Now with no change in parking signs, knowing my vehicle, person telling them I’m on my way, they proceeded to tow!
So in 20 minutes after he saw me park he had the tow truck there!
So judge for yourself, but don’t expect to get treated like it used to be when Dale was the Dockmaster and after 30 years I’m sorry to say but I will never step on neptunes property again!

THE WORST APARTMENT BUILDING EVER! RATS, TERMITES, MOLD, GROUCHY NEIGHBORS, HORRENDOUS OFFICE MANAGEMENT!!! My first month living here my entire apartment FLOODED.(a pipe burst within weeks and ruined my furniture) then I heard noises all night long. RATS chewing HOLES all over my kitchen and living room… office management response: «Well, you live in the marina, rats happen» EXCUSE ME! I am a local. All of my friends, acquaintances, and business associates live in the area in either cheaper or more luxurious apartments and have never had such issues. and neither have I! I cannot WAIT to leave this place. This is worse than the Projects. No human should pay to live this way. I am currently in contact with the Health Department. No way this place is up to code. Disaster since DAY ONE!
I WILL POST PICTURES OF ALL THE TERMITES AND RAT HOLES… Oh, and the mold if you insist.
One star is for the parking. and I HAVE to give one star.
Oh.and Doc Master Mike is great… as well as the young african american girl in the office. The other woman… useless, bitter, unfriendly, and shuts you down before you finish a sentence. I have 3 other friends that live in THREE OTHER UNITS that all agree she is useless and are currently looking to move. Run away from this sinking ship folks. yea its cheap but its NOT WORTH IT!!!

The management staff are not good people here at Neptune Marina! They don’t follow through on complaints! Took them 3 weeks to even respond to our repair request! They don’t check the grounds personally for problems like the broken sprinklers flooding areas, they make their overworked maintenance check on everything! The hot tub area is constantly being used after hours and the tenants are loud as hell and when you complain the managements says not our problem call the sheriff! Really? call the cops every time someone is breaking the complex rules, are they serious? The main manager Rebecca is a spiteful ugly fat rude person who does not try to do her job well in the slightest!
Only positive to me is the maintenance staff! When they are finally told of a problem by the rude Rebecca, who coincidentally never checks the email for the units, they are fast friendly!
Point is is your thinking of moving here don’t!’ We live here now and want out of our lease because this place is ridiculous!!! It’ll probably be torn down soon just like bar harbor, which to me means they don’t give a Crap about their current tenants cause we will all be booted anyway !

This is a great group of people! They work incredibly hard to keep their property up and are all very honorable. The unfortunate display of poor character has no place on this site. The Neptune Marina is a great place to live, irregardless of what kind of shoes one wears or the very cool car they drive.

My husband and I have lived here for about two years and would recommend this place to anyone in the marina. Yes, it’s a bit older than some of the other buildings — no granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, etc. In exchange you get a ton of bang for your buck — the units are two-​bedroom, two-​bath, townhouse style (nobody above you or below you), and each unit has its own fenced-​in small back yard as well as front patio and balcony. It’s the most space we’ve ever had, and we’re not paying extra for it.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. We’ve had a few problems with plumbing, etc., as the units are older. But the staff is always by right away to fix things, and they do a good job.
We also rent a boat slip in the marina, and the folks on the docks couldn’t be friendlier, and DockMaster Mike makes life really easy. Similar to the apartments, the docks aren’t the fanciest… but the rent reflects that. And the people are actually down on the docks, loving life and loving their boats, as opposed to the folks in the more expensive anchorages who only make it down on Memorial Day and Fourth of July.
If you’re thinking of getting an apartment or boat slip here, GO FOR IT!

Town houses are falling apart. Recently moved out. Would not recommend.
Staff are unhelpful, leaking roof, etc etc

I am a writer for a Dutch newspaper, and a friend of mine who has a boat moored at the Neptune Marina offered to let me stay on her boat a couple of days a month to work.
All seemed to be going well until after 2 months of staying on the boat once in awhile, I allowed another friend ~ who had recently lost his house and car due to a lay off ~ stay over *one* night on the deck of the boat. I repeat: ONE night. He had biked all the way up from Long Beach to go to a job interview in Culver City the following day, and because he’d had his only suit dry cleaned for the occasion I didn’t want him biking to the interview in the August sun and risk arriving sweaty, so offered to let him stay over, and that I would drive him to the interview the next day.
Let me add that my friend does NOT use drug or alcohol and in no way caused any disturbance, besides unwittingly parking his bike in the wrong place until asked to move it, which he then did so immediately, without any argument.
I was only doing what any DECENT human being would do ~ to help another human being out a bit. The consequence of this very small act, was that I was asked to leave the Neptune Marina the very next day! Incredible!
Thanks Neptune Marina, for giving me a story to write to my paper about, and for living up to Los Angeles’ ugly, heartless and heliocentric image.

I stayed as a tenant at Neptune Marina for over 9 years, renting 2 boat slips and it was very pleasant experience. I had recently discussed some issues with the managment, but overall I am happy with this business. I can see a lot of improvements happening and we have good communication with Michael Gordon the Dockmaster.
