A wonderful club, particularly for older people, in so many ways. Assistant manager Archie, servers including but not limited to Allen, Kyle and Danny, accountant Jerilynn are all wonderful. Why not 5-star? The MANAGER can be brutally insensitive and money-mongering...in the face of a loved one's death, or other trauma, entirely inflexible (regarding any temporary payment adjustment) and emotionally tone deaf. Enjoy. But beware this management style. I don't know how or why they keep her. I guess she brings in money.

I love my club, the other reviews are correct in that our staff is amazing and accommodating. You always feel the special treatment of a private club vs. a public restaurant/bar. They rarely can't accommodate a special request and do it with a smile. From Max, Lisa and Archie at the front to Kyle, Allen, Danny, Javier and Al taking care of your food and drink needs it never disappoints. Most Fridays I find myself wanting to test Allen's Tiki drink of the week and recently fell in love with the Japanese slipper (delicious refreshing Midori drink . Love the new dinning room menu and it's true we have the best fillet of Sole I have had. Activities for all kinds, movie nights, game nights, dancing with live bands, family cruises, races and dock parties. Do your self a favor and come and enjoy DRYC.

Incredible food and service! Javier is so welcoming and helpful. I'm too young for alcohol but I heard Alan makes the best Mai Tais ever! I would recommend the filet of sole. The server hailey is very sweet as well and I was so grateful to have her take my order. Join the yacht club! Such a good decision, this is the one.

Wonderful Sunday Buffet!! Lots of choices ! Very clean ! Great taste! Great Service !!! Valet parking if you want!

Been a happy member since 1995. Best Club around bar none. Clubhouse, docks and grounds provide a wonderful space and the friendly members complete the DRYC experience. No boat? No problem! Come for a visit and check it out.

I joined Del Rey Yacht Club over 20 years ago and it was the best decision I could have made. Now I am retired and get to enjoy the Club even more. I keep my boat at its wonderful docks in the Marina and also get to enjoy the Catalina Harbor facility at Catalina Island. You could not ask for more.

Great private yacht club with amenities such as pool, bar, restaurant, etc. that outshines all its competitions in Marina Del Rey.

Del Rey Yacht Club is the premier yacht club in Marina del Rey. The club is steep in tradition, with many 2nd and 3rd generation members making Del Rey Yacht Club the focal point of their family's activities. There is something for everyone, from sailing to angling to the various social events. The calendar is constantly providing new and exciting things to do. Del Rey Yacht Club has a great dining room and vibrant bar with delicious food and drink to tempt everyone. The club's clubhouse facility is second to none. The club has a large parking lot complete with boat hoist to make launching small craft easy. The club's facility on Catalina Island makes the several cruises there great fun. I've enjoyed Del Rey Yacht Club for many years. I'm sure you would enjoy it as well!

We enjoy the bar and casual food scene here. The club has a great view of the marina and many beautiful boats. Danny is the best. Alan and Al are wonderful too.

Danny, Al, and Allen are some of the best people I have ever met. We've been members here for years and we come here now in large part just to catch up with them. They greet us with a smile and a generous pour. In this big city it's really nice to have a place where everybody knows your name. Highly recommend membership here, and even more highly recommend that you come by when Danny is working the bar!

This is a great yacht club with so much great history to it. Wonderful views and facilities. Very friendly members who treat one another like family. Also, very friendly and knowledgeable bar tenders. Not just the Marina del Rey facility is wonderful, but there is also another great facility in Cat Harbor, Catalina Island. Great place to enjoy a very relaxing cruise!

How Much Do Yacht Club Memberships Cost? (5 Helpful Examples)

Joining a yacht club is an important milestone in your life. It marks a certain degree of success and allows you to enjoy plenty of luxurious amenities. Setting sail on a yacht is the ultimate way to unwind from a hectic work week while you try to climb the corporate ladder.

Fortunately, there are yacht clubs all over the country that would love to welcome you as a brand-new member. You can enjoy an afternoon on the water with a beautiful yacht in exchange for a small sum of money.

But how much do Yacht Club memberships generally cost?

Prices for Yacht Clubs will vary based on your location, the fleet, and even the amenities that are offered at the marina. The average annual membership price is between $900-$4,000 depending on your level of luxury and needs.

To give you an idea of what you could expect to pay for your yacht club membership, here are some numbers gathered from across the country:

Table of Contents

What Does Each Yacht Club Offer?

Each yacht club is going to offer something that sets it apart from the others on this listing. To give you a better idea of where your money is going, here is a brief synopsis of what you can expect at each location.

Charleston Yacht Club

Charleston is a premier cruising destination with plenty of waterways for you to explore. They offer a launch hoist, dry slips, day dockage, free parking, and a long list of events scheduled throughout the year.

You also gain privileges at other yacht clubs around the world. If you don’t own your own yacht, they have plenty of members who often have room on their boats to accommodate a few extra passengers.

Florida Yacht Club

The Florida Yacht Club is a relatively exclusive club that features amazing amenities like fine dining and an array of aquatic activities.

You can play tennis, enjoy a spa treatment or massage, or get in a rousing game of croquet from the shore. They also host events and permit you to extend your privileges to other locations scattered around the Florida coast.

Atlanta Yacht Club

The Atlanta Yacht Club is primarily geared toward sailors who are interested in racing. They have a fleet of more than thirty different boats that are designed to help you further your knowledge of sailing.

If you still have a lot to learn, you can even take classes at this location. Prospective members must be sponsored and co-sponsored by two club members for entrance.

What are the Cheapest Yacht Clubs?

The cheapest yacht clubs charge just under $1,000 per year for membership. While this does give you access to different types of experiences, you may be disappointed by the overall amenities.

Some yacht clubs are known for their extravagant country club styles that help you to embrace a particular lifestyle. They include Olympic-sized swimming pools, state-of-the-art tennis courts, and fine dining.

Everything has a beautiful waterfront view. It can feel like you are in the middle of an idyllic paradise without ever even having to leave the shore. If this is what you can gain from the most expensive yacht clubs, you should set your expectations much lower for the cheaper yacht clubs.

The cheaper yacht clubs lack the community aspect of these exclusive options. They feature dry slips and the occasional party, but not much more.

Some of them may have the feel of a county park with some picnic benches, outdoor grills, and a moderately sized swimming pool. Expect a much more casual atmosphere when you choose to go with a cheaper yacht club.

It is even possible that they are simply “paper yacht clubs” that do not even maintain a physical building of their own.

How Much Do the Most Expensive Yacht Clubs Cost to Join?

The most expensive yacht clubs can vary a great deal in price. Most of them will cost between $3,000 and $4,000 per year. However, you can certainly find more exclusive clubs that will cost above and beyond this.

Keep in mind that these more expensive clubs generally are not open to the public. They are offered by invitation only and you must have a member sponsor you to be considered for entrance.

When you are paying for a more expensive yacht club, you should make sure that you are really going to get your money’s worth. These expensive clubs promote a certain type of elegant lifestyle.

Make sure that you are planning to take advantage of all the amenities available from one of these clubs before you sink too much money into the membership fees. The social aspect of these expensive yacht clubs is extremely important.

If you plan to simply rent a boat from time to time, you might be able to go with a cheaper yacht club.

What Is Generally Included in the Membership Fee for Yacht Clubs?

Have you been wondering why you should join a yacht club? Many potential members want to know what they can expect from their membership fees before they commit to a year-long contract. There are many advantages to signing up for a membership with a well-known yacht club.

Amenities and Activities

First and foremost, you get access to activities and cruises planned by board members. These might be various sailing activities, dinners, get-togethers, tennis matches, or other events that take up a lazy Sunday afternoon.

You also gain access to any amenities that surround the yacht club’s marina. For many programs, this means a fitness center, pool, and tennis courts. Several locations also offer fine dining, meeting rooms, and more.

It is like a private oasis where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of the regular world. Time moves slowly when you’re enjoying the amenities here.

Many yacht clubs have programs that introduce children (and adults!) to sailing. Take classes to learn more about improving your technique, sailing safety, and other important aspects of life on the open water.

Access to the Fleet

The main reason why most people join yacht clubs is to be able to rent out boats instead of purchasing their own. Joining a yacht club may give you access to an entire fleet of yachts that can be reserved for a day or weeks at a time. Some yacht clubs allow you to rent boats for up to ten days at a time.

Others do not allow you to rent out ships. They are primarily geared toward individuals who already own a yacht or will own a yacht in the future. Make sure you know the difference in advance.

Are There any Additional Costs Besides the Membership Fees?

Unfortunately, the membership fees are not the only cost associated with joining a yacht club. Most of the clubs in the United States also have a one-time initial fee that tends to cost thousands of dollars. Many will range from $1,500 to $5,000 depending on the location and the exclusivity of the yacht club.

This one-time fee should be the only additional money you pay except for fuel. Most yacht clubs do not cover the cost of the fuel used in the ship during your rental if renting is an option. Be prepared for what this could cost you.

If you cause damage to the ship, you can also expect some out-of-pocket costs. Insurance should cover the damage, but you will likely be asked to cover the cost of the deductible.

Be sure to inquire about how much you may be on the hook for before you sign up for any particular yacht club. Accidents can happen, even to the most experienced sailors. Make sure that you can afford the mishap in advance.

Is a Yacht Club Membership Right for You?

Understanding what the real cost of a yacht club membership is can be the first step toward determining if this is right for you. Many people love the luxuries available through the more expensive yacht clubs, but they may not be able to afford it. Consider what is most important in a club to you before deciding to sign on the dotted line for an annual membership.

The Comprehensive Guide to Moscow Nightlife

• Posted on April 14, 2018 July 26, 2018
• by Kings of Russia
• 8 minute read

Moscow’s nightlife scene is thriving, and arguably one of the best the world has to offer – top-notch Russian women, coupled with a never-ending list of venues, Moscow has a little bit of something for everyone’s taste. Moscow nightlife is not for the faint of heart – and if you’re coming, you better be ready to go Friday and Saturday night into the early morning.

This comprehensive guide to Moscow nightlife will run you through the nuts and bolts of all you need to know about Moscow’s nightclubs and give you a solid blueprint to operate with during your time in Moscow.

What you need to know before hitting Moscow nightclubs

Prices in moscow nightlife.

Before you head out and start gaming all the sexy Moscow girls , we have to talk money first. Bring plenty because in Moscow you can never bring a big enough bankroll. Remember, you’re the man so making a fuzz of not paying a drink here or there will not go down well.

Luckily most Moscow clubs don’t do cover fees. Some electro clubs will charge 15-20$, depending on their lineup. There’s the odd club with a minimum spend of 20-30$, which you’ll drop on drinks easily. By and large, you can scope out the venues for free, which is a big plus.

Bottle service is a great deal in Moscow. At top-tier clubs, it starts at 1,000$. That’ll go a long way with premium vodka at 250$, especially if you have three or four guys chipping in. Not to mention that it’s a massive status boost for getting girls, especially at high-end clubs.

Without bottle service, you should estimate a budget of 100-150$ per night. That is if you drink a lot and hit the top clubs with the hottest girls. Scale down for less alcohol and more basic places.

Dress code & Face control

Door policy in Moscow is called “face control” and it’s always the guy behind the two gorillas that gives the green light if you’re in or out.

In Moscow nightlife there’s only one rule when it comes to dress codes:

You can never be underdressed.

People dress A LOT sharper than, say, in the US and that goes for both sexes. For high-end clubs, you definitely want to roll with a sharp blazer and a pocket square, not to mention dress shoes in tip-top condition. Those are the minimum requirements to level the playing field vis a vis with other sharply dressed guys that have a lot more money than you do. Unless you plan to hit explicit electro or underground clubs, which have their own dress code, you are always on the money with that style.

Getting in a Moscow club isn’t as hard as it seems: dress sharp, speak English at the door and look like you’re in the mood to spend all that money that you supposedly have (even if you don’t). That will open almost any door in Moscow’s nightlife for you.

Types of Moscow Nightclubs

In Moscow there are four types of clubs with the accompanying female clientele:

High-end clubs:

These are often crossovers between restaurants and clubs with lots of tables and very little space to dance. Heavy accent on bottle service most of the time but you can work the room from the bar as well. The hottest and most expensive girls in Moscow go there. Bring deep pockets and lots of self-confidence and you have a shot at swooping them.

Regular Mid-level clubs:

They probably resemble more what you’re used to in a nightclub: big dancefloors, stages and more space to roam around. Bottle service will make you stand out more but you can also do well without. You can find all types of girls but most will be in the 6-8 range. Your targets should always be the girls drinking and ideally in pairs. It’s impossible not to swoop if your game is at least half-decent.

Basic clubs/dive bars:

Usually spots with very cheap booze and lax face control. If you’re dressed too sharp and speak no Russian, you might attract the wrong type of attention so be vigilant. If you know the local scene you can swoop 6s and 7s almost at will. Usually students and girls from the suburbs.

Electro/underground clubs:

Home of the hipsters and creatives. Parties there don’t mean meeting girls and getting drunk but doing pills and spacing out to the music. Lots of attractive hipster girls if that is your niche. That is its own scene with a different dress code as well.

What time to go out in Moscow

Moscow nightlife starts late. Don’t show up at bars and preparty spots before 11pm because you’ll feel fairly alone. Peak time is between 1am and 3am. That is also the time of Moscow nightlife’s biggest nuisance: concerts by artists you won’t know and who only distract your girls from drinking and being gamed. From 4am to 6am the regular clubs are emptying out but plenty of people, women included, still hit up one of the many afterparty clubs. Those last till well past 10am.

As far as days go: Fridays and Saturdays are peak days. Thursday is an OK day, all other days are fairly weak and you have to know the right venues.

The Ultimate Moscow Nightclub List

Short disclaimer: I didn’t add basic and electro clubs since you’re coming for the girls, not for the music. This list will give you more options than you’ll be able to handle on a weekend.

Preparty – start here at 11PM

Classic restaurant club with lots of tables and a smallish bar and dancefloor. Come here between 11pm and 12am when the concert is over and they start with the actual party. Even early in the night tons of sexy women here, who lean slightly older (25 and up).

The second floor of the Ugolek restaurant is an extra bar with dim lights and house music tunes. Very small and cozy with a slight hipster vibe but generally draws plenty of attractive women too. A bit slower vibe than Valenok.

Very cool, spread-out venue that has a modern library theme. Not always full with people but when it is, it’s brimming with top-tier women. Slow vibe here and better for grabbing contacts and moving on.

High-end: err on the side of being too early rather than too late because of face control.

Secret Room

Probably the top venue at the moment in Moscow . Very small but wildly popular club, which is crammed with tables but always packed. They do parties on Thursdays and Sundays as well. This club has a hip-hop/high-end theme, meaning most girls are gold diggers, IG models, and tattooed hip hop chicks. Very unfavorable logistics because there is almost no room no move inside the club but the party vibe makes it worth it. Strict face control.

Close to Secret Room and with a much more favorable and spacious three-part layout. This place attracts very hot women but also lots of ball busters and fakes that will leave you blue-balled. Come early because after 4am it starts getting empty fast. Electronic music.

A slightly kitsch restaurant club that plays Russian pop and is full of gold diggers, semi-pros, and men from the Caucasus republics. Thursday is the strongest night but that dynamic might be changing since Secret Room opened its doors. You can swoop here but it will be a struggle.

Mid-level: your sweet spot in terms of ease and attractiveness of girls for an average budget.

Started going downwards in 2018 due to lax face control and this might get even worse with the World Cup. In terms of layout one of the best Moscow nightclubs because it’s very big and bottle service gives you a good edge here. Still attracts lots of cute girls with loose morals but plenty of provincial girls (and guys) as well. Swooping is fairly easy here.

I haven’t been at this place in over a year, ever since it started becoming ground zero for drunken teenagers. Similar clientele to Icon but less chic, younger and drunker. Decent mainstream music that attracts plenty of tourists. Girls are easy here as well.

Sort of a Coyote Ugly (the real one in Moscow sucks) with party music and lots of drunken people licking each others’ faces. Very entertaining with the right amount of alcohol and very easy to pull in there. Don’t think about staying sober in here, you’ll hate it.

Artel Bessonitsa/Shakti Terrace

Electronic music club that is sort of a high-end place with an underground clientele and located between the teenager clubs Icon and Gipsy. Very good music but a bit all over the place with their vibe and their branding. You can swoop almost any type of girl here from high-heeled beauty to coked-up hipsters, provided they’re not too sober.

Afterparty: if by 5AM  you haven’t pulled, it’s time to move here.

Best afterparty spot in terms of trying to get girls. Pretty much no one is sober in there and savage gorilla game goes a long way. Lots of very hot and slutty-looking girls but it can be hard to tell apart who is looking for dick and who is just on drugs but not interested. If by 9-10am you haven’t pulled, it is probably better to surrender.

The hipster alternative for afterparties, where even more drugs are in play. Plenty of attractive girls there but you have to know how to work this type of club. A nicer atmosphere and better music but if you’re desperate to pull, you’ll probably go to Miks.

Weekday jokers: if you’re on the hunt for some sexy Russian girls during the week, here are two tips to make your life easier.

Chesterfield

Ladies night on Wednesdays means this place gets pretty packed with smashed teenagers and 6s and 7s. Don’t pull out the three-piece suit in here because it’s a “simpler” crowd. Definitely your best shot on Wednesdays.

If you haven’t pulled at Chesterfield, you can throw a Hail Mary and hit up Garage’s Black Music Wednesdays. Fills up really late but there are some cute Black Music groupies in here. Very small club. Thursday through Saturday they do afterparties and you have an excellent shot and swooping girls that are probably high.

Shishas Sferum

This is pretty much your only shot on Mondays and Tuesdays because they offer free or almost free drinks for women. A fairly low-class club where you should watch your drinks. As always the case in Moscow, there will be cute girls here on any day of the week but it’s nowhere near as good as on the weekend.

In a nutshell, that is all you need to know about where to meet Moscow girls in nightlife. There are tons of options, and it all depends on what best fits your style, based on the type of girls that you’re looking for.

Club History

In the beginning.

EARLY YEARS Within approximately one year of the charter date, we had obtained membership of 25 (the required minimum) and applied for membership in S.C.Y.A.  We were promptly accepted as members of "a recognized yacht club" and within the span of a comparatively few years increased our membership to almost 500. 

MILESTONES OF PROGRESS Through the efforts of hundreds of dedicated members, it is now possible to point to milestones of progress like these:  FIRST CLUBHOUSE On March 27, 1962, Del Rey Yacht Club, a non-profit corporation, and the County of Los Angeles entered into a 60-year lease for parcel No. 30 in the new Del Rey Marina.  The construction of slips was commenced shortly thereafter, and in September 1965, a magnificent clubhouse was completed and dedicated.    YACHT RACING PROMINENCE Del Rey Yacht Club has taken an outstanding place in yachting circles.  It is a member of the United States Sailing Association, the Southern California Yachting Association, the Yacht Racing Union of Southern California, the Association of Santa Monica Bay Yacht Clubs, the Southern California Cruiser Association and the Santa Monica Bay Power Fleet.    The Club has participated actively in all forms of both sail racing and predicted log racing, sponsoring over 25 races each year.  Its members have entered such well known international blue water races as the Transpacific Yacht Race, numerous races of Mexico, the Clipper Cup Series, Sardinia Cup, Southern Ocean Racing Circuit, as well as the Pacific Coast Barusch Race and the North American Invitational.    PUERTO VALLARTA RACE Del Rey Yacht Club was the organizer and host Club for the first international race to Puerto Vallarta in 1971 and continues sponsoring this highly successful biennial event that has generated international recognition and commendation.  As a consequence of the good relations fostered by the race organizing committees, the city officials in Puerto Vallarta proposed that Marina Vallarta and Marina del Rey become Sister Marinas. Today, we are justifiably proud of this very special relationship.    SPECIAL PROGRAMS We can point with pride to our Club's active educational program, Anglers’ activities, Junior Activities, Racing programs, enthusiastic Auxiliary, fine dining room, general good fellowship and nautical sportsmanship.    LIFETIME MEMBERS On April 29, 1972, we celebrated our 20th anniversary with a Club party at which "surviving" pioneer members were awarded "service stripes" for twenty continuous years of Club membership. The award of these service stripes, as well as additional 10-year milestone certificates, is now recognized annually at our general meetings. In 2015, our most senior member was awarded her 60-Year Membership Award. In just 1998 alone, membership honors were bestowed on six 40-year members, five 30-year members and seventeen 20-year members.  For many of our members, membership in Del Rey Yacht Club is for life!    OUR CATALINA ISLAND FACILITY On October 8, 1972, the Club celebrated another milestone when a large group of members on a Commodore's Cruise participated in the dedication of our lovely new Catalina Harbor facility, which has been constantly improved and enjoyed by our members and their guests over the many years.   CLUBHOUSE EXPANSION Early in 1972, steps were taken to enlarge the physical facilities of the Club by the addition of 88 slips and end ties adjoining the Club property.  In 1984, culminating years of effort by many members, the Club built 56 new slips and accompanying facilities on the main channel in front of the Clubhouse. The addition of these slips made it possible then for nearly every member to have a slip for his boat at the Club, and has resulted in providing us with one of the largest and finest Yacht Club properties in the country.  CLUBHOUSE EXPANSION...AGAIN Over the years, the membership and their various activities outgrew the boundaries of the original Clubhouse.  A Building Renovation Committee was formed, an architect was chosen, and in July 1993, construction began.  Construction took about nine months to complete, during which time the Club continued its business and its activities in a large tent and temporary buildings that were placed on the patio and the parking lot.  On March 18, 1994, the officers of the Club and the Auxiliary were formally installed in the new Del Rey Yacht Club, and the building was re-dedicated.  On March 20, which was Opening Day, the officers and members were proud to greet the guests of the neighboring yacht clubs in the quiet elegance of their new facility.  And so, the founding members who dared to dream of a Del Rey Yacht Club passed the baton to fellow members who dared to dream a little farther.   

On to the Future...
