SUMMER IN SAN DIEGO ON A YACHT

With the past heat wave we just experienced in San Diego it's time to think about Summer - Summer in San Diego on a Yacht! Have You Ever Just Wanted To “Slip Away” For A Few Days From Everyday Life? Most people do, but end up staying in the same old generic hotel room. When was the last time you called a friend and said, “You should see this place, it’s fantastic! Can’t remember?” Plan to get away on one of our beautifully appointed yachts: Slipaway - a 45’ Hardin Ketch; Silver Cloud – a 46’ Sea Ray Express Cruiser; Sea Horse - a 47' Beneteau; Ode To Our Joy - a 50' Bayliner; or our newest yacht to our fleet Elegante - a 82' Classic Motor Yacht. All of these fantastic yachts are moored at the secluded Shelter Cove Marina. For about the same price as a hotel room you can be sleeping on the water in San Diego’s famous America’s Cup Harbor. With our yachts you are not renting a room, you are living in a fully functional vessel. Come experience what it is really like to live at sea.

Another Satisfied Guest

 

We love to make our guests happy – and it shows. Here is another great review from a recent stay! And, this lovely couple submitted a few photos from their stay!

“It was our 25th Wedding Anniversary and we wanted to do something a little different. So we booked a 2 night stay on Ode to our Joy. It was absolutely perfect! The owner, Shaun, met us and couldn't have been more helpful. The boat was beautiful, spacious, airy, light and had everything we needed for our stay. The bed was very comfortable and cozy. The weather was glorious and spent a lot of time sitting on deck enjoying the marvelous views and bobbing about on the water. We plan to stay again very soon.”

Mark and Diane S. – Irvine, CA – 10/16/2013

         

Come and Sail Away!

Now is the perfect time to not only sleep aboard one of our great yachts, but also an ideal time to pay a little extra for the opportunity to go out to sea with our chartering program!

Most of our boats are available for charters for 2 or 4 hours, or if you have a special event, you can even rent out one of our yachts for just an afternoon event. Be it a wedding, remembrance service, or a birthday, we can help you have a very special occasion to remember.

We hope to see you soon on one of our six lovely yachts.

Boat Bed and Breakfast–Reviews

 

Here are a few recent reviews from some of our guests:

“The Crazy Notion was absolutely one of the best experiences I've had in a long time. We live locally and wanted a fun weekend staycation and this was the perfect place. So, much more interesting, exciting and romantic than staying at a hotel. It is very spacious inside and we loved waking up in the morning and having coffee out on the deck while the sun was just coming up and spending the evenings with a glass of wine watching the sunset. Also, many very good and convenient restaurants all within walking. We will certainly be back to try the rest of the fleet!!”

Gwyn G. – La Mesa, CA August 15, 2013

“My wife and I stayed on the Silver Cloud for the 2013 Memorial Day weekend this past May. We a were little apprehensive, and now we can say that it was absolutely the right choice. We were pleasantly surprised that there was plenty of room for the two of us. If there had been another couple (or possibly three people) things would have been a bit cramped, but it would have been o.k. as long as they were close friends and not high maintenance types. The amenities all work wonderfully, and morning coffee on the back deck is awesome. We had to tear ourselves away from the serenity of the scene. We never used the heat or A/C - just opening and closing the hatches allowed sufficient temperature control. The bathroom/locker rooms on shore were clean, and there are three showers with partitions and locking doors, no lines (in the men’s anyway). The fitness facility could use a little updating, but it was sufficient (the lone treadmill is very new/updated, though). We went to a concert and dinner at Humphrey's by the Bay which is about a five minute walk; also, the beer/sausages at Fathom are divine. Driving to Sea World is under 10 minutes, and La Jolla was 15-20 minutes depending on traffic. We are already planning another stay on another vessel. A great vacation for being active, or just relaxing and sunbathing.”

Cory L. – Santa Monica, CA May 29, 2013

“This boat (Slipaway) is amazing! Plenty of room for a couple. Everything you need is provided on this boat. The Shelter Island marina is clean, quiet, and secure. The harbor is conveniently located to get around town. We took advantage of some of the restaurant discounts and found some great new spots. If you like being close to the water this is a great option. Can wait to go back!”

Heather K. – Phoenix, AZ July 8, 2013

Good Monday Morning out there in the blogosphere! We’re trying to encourage more people to visit our growing Facebook page – so, we’re going to give a $50 off coupon to a RANDOM person once we hit 100 likes!

Mind you – as part of the Trek Properties family, this coupon is good on not only our growing fleet of luxury yachts here in San Diego, but can also be used at one of our great cabins in Big Bear.

We are taking a lot of new bookings on our boats – and something we just realized is this – the nightly fireworks show at Sea World can be readily enjoyed on the decks of any of our five boats! Sit and enjoy the night sea-breeze, and watch the show with your family and friends.

Not interested in fireworks? That is okay too! Escape aboard a Water Taxi and head to downtown San Diego’s famous Gaslamp District – a bustling night life in the heart of Downtown San Diego. Access to the local bus and trolley system can place you anywhere within San Diego! (We recommend the San Diego Trolley Tour if you’re a first time visitor!).

Come and stay on one of our five yachts: Slipaway, Silver Cloud, Sea Horse, Crazy Notion, or our newest ship, Ode to Our Joy.

“Be Hapi”–Hapi Fish is Happening!

          It’s not too often that we recommend other businesses here on the blog. The reason is simple; Shaun is picky! No we’re only joking! We love to experience all that life has to offer. One of my (JP – the blog guy) favorite foods has to be Sushi. I grew up in the mid-west and when I came to California, I fell in love with Sushi. but enough about me!

         We are pleased to announce a partnership of sorts with Hapi Fish and its owner, Justin Masunaga. What is really special about Justin Masunaga’s dream and his business is his affiliation to Shelter Cove Marina – home of our very own Boat Bed and Breakfast! Justin lives on his boat at the Marina and wants to pass along a GREAT offer for members of the Marina Diner Card! So, anyone with a Marina Diner Card will receive a 20% off discount at his awesome and growing establishment in Encinitas (except during Hapi Hour).

       Okay – so you live way down in Imperial Beach. Why drive to Encinitas to eat Sushi? This place rocks, that is the simple answer. Also, Justin and his team (you have to see their nicknames and favorite dishes on the website) put together a great presentation of Sushi and Sashimi, as well as some cooked goods for those picky eaters in the family. Plus, enjoy one of the best North County coastal beach towns – Encinitas.

      Hapi Fish is open every day of the week at 3:00 PM, and stays open until 11:00 PM Tuesday through Saturday, and until 9:00 PM Sunday and Monday. Plus, Hapi Hour runs daily from 3:00 to 7:00 PM.  Hapi Fish is conveniently located at: 190 North Coast Highway 101, Encinitas, California.

    We’re “Hapi” to have Justin as our neighbor at the marina, and we hope that you’ll take the drive up the five and stop and give him a try! To see more visit the following:
