Definitely an awesome way to enjoy a beautiful day & the surrounding scenery. & its pretty dope you get to drive your own boat. Wish we got to experience it longer, note book at least 2 weeks in advance cuz the weekends get pretty busy during nice weather!

Great way to spend a few hours! Super friendly service! Highly recommend for an afternoon outing. We did two hours and that was the perfect amount of time to cover all of the area on the map.We brought food with us and ate on the boat. It was great!

Honestly was a lot better than I expected! Our route was cut short due to high tides but none the less we still covered just enough ground to even without going under the bridge! But none the less, service was awesome, boat ride was easy and nice to drive, plenty of space to eat on the boat oh yeah we even brought our own food which was a plus! Safe to say I’ll come back again one day because it was well worth it!

We walked in for this activity. Staff was able to book us for the next time which was almost immediately. Getting checked in was smooth, fast and easy. Walked over to the dock, staff was quick to explain how to use the boat, my family and I got in and spent an awesome 2 hrs driving around and just hanging out. Staff was awesome and will definitely rent from this company again! Thank you! Great bonding experience with the family and furbaby

Professional and organized. We were on the water quickly and had no problems with our two jet skis. Took them out on a Friday morning for an hour with two adults and two kids. Plenty of room to roam and see Long Beach. We had a blast!

Was a very family friendly event. The boat goes at max 5mph. The steering is practically like driving a car but slightly more sensitive. Its a nice cruise so even the kiddos had a chance to try steering a little. The staff are young and attentive. I recommend renting for an hour as it is more than enough.Dont forget if you get motion sickness to use motion sickness patches or pills because although your in control, if its your first time steering it gives you stomach a woozie feeling.

Devante is great. Super helpful when we got the boat and returning it was a savior. I was fine driving around in the open water but had zero finesse when it came to pulling alongside the dock. So I had to just gently drive straight at the dock nose first, Devante jumped on, took the wheel and proceeded to perfectly pull it around the back end and park with a perfect 180 glide into a parallel parking spot. Showed me up but was super nice about it haha. Great guy too.P.S. Our Boat squealed at full throttle.

London Boat Rentals was so fun! From the customer service to the ease of driving the boat, it was excellent. We rented it today for Fathers day and it made a great day for my husband and family. We will definitely be back! I highly recommend this place. Thanks for your guys time.

Review №17

The girl that checked us in was fantastic - very friendly, knowledgeable, and funny! Other staff were nice too. The only downside is the boat we got was very slow and the engine kept cutting out. You had to really finesse the throttle. I tried to return the boat immediately but they said it would be fine. I didnt care for that, they should have given us a different boat. We still had fun checking out all the Christmas lights in Naples. I would give then another and rent again.

Just got back from a duffy boat rental with London Boat Rentals. I have to say that Noah and Doug were on top of it. As soon as we get there, theyre immediately directing us to which boat well be using. At the end of everything, Noah kills it with docking our boat. Shoutout to: Noah, Doug, Donovan, and Richard!

Just what the family needed. A day on the water, cool breeze & some vitamin D. The perfect recipe for good vibes. The staff was friendly & informative, a good time had by all.

Review №21

Everything was going great until the end. One of the staff members was trying to direct us on how to align the boat and was extremely rude. He couldnt give out directions and when he realized it he got frustrated and began yelling. As if that wasnt enough he decided to yell at my 9 YEAR OLD sister for following his exact directions. Didnt get his name but he had on black sunglasses and a black neck gaiter face mask. Front desk was nice and the other staff members weve dealt with before were great. This employee on the other hand ruined our family outing completely.

London Boat Rentals need to take ownership of the bad behavior of their renters. The renters have no respect for the communities they are creating havoc in with load music, public intoxication, driving a boat under the influence, lewd behavior and on 12/26/2020 indecent exposure with urination in public. The dotards were all cited by LBPD.

Came here to do a surprise birthday event during the Rona times. They were nice, clean, and accommodating to all our needs with no questions asked. I definitely recommend this place for a boat rental. Everything about this place is iconic and friendly. The employees are the best, even when our time slot ended near curfew time. Definitely recommend this place. Also, Corbin is such a good employee

One of our partners had a accident and took all 3 of our security deposits and told we was going to be contacted about damages pricing. Took all of our deposits and never contacted us. Tried contacting through phone and even online through their contact but of course nothing at the end of the day. Its been 2 months w/ no response. I wont recommend because they really played us for our other security deposits.

We’ve used London Boat Rentals and we couldn’t be happier! The staff is so friendly, helpful, understanding and awesome! We love Sydney, as she was so friendly on both our occasions for our reservations. In particular for this second reservation, we were told we couldn’t go onto the wave runner due to the weather. This was extremely fair and loved that the management made our safety a priority (unlike other companies). Due to my husbands extensive background as a boat captain, in the Coast Guard, and police officer they amended their policy for us which was so amazing but not expected. We enjoyed our first date as new parents and really could not believe the amazing customer service the staff provided. Thank you and we will be back again!

It was just so much fun!!!! Most of all relaxing. Plus your on your own, so no worries about being to close to people. We celebrated my nephews birthday on the boat, took food and treats!!! If youve been quarantined like I have due to covid, this is a wonderful way to get out and have some fun. Plus staff was so kind.

Review №44

The boat was in great condition and it was a beautiful fun way to spend time with family. Really a great experience, however our fun experience was tainted a bit because it took forever to register. Was as slow as one can be, she takes her time to even move around and she won’t care that your boat rental time is about to start. The company won’t give you extra time either even if their own employee was the one taking forever. Anyway, If you decide to go with this company I advise u arrive an hour in advance as half an hour won’t cut it with her! Best of luck!

I rented a Duffy for two hours on a Sunday morning. Everything was perfect. I placed an order online -- really glad I got to pay up front. It put my mind at ease that the price listed was what I was actually paying. At $89/hr +tax, it was a great price considering other locations were charging $120/hr for the same size Duffy. When I arrived, there was plenty of parking (though it did fill up by the time we got back). Paperwork was clear and concise. The amenities were great. They offered ice and a cooler, though I had brought my own... They offered Bluetooth and an auxiliary cable for music. The Duffy was clean, seats were comfy, clean and padded. There were enough cup holders and even bottle holders toward the front of the boat to hold champagne and wine bottles in place. The maps and routes were clearly explained and marked for us. The Duffy was easy to operate. There was an extra pop up table for the extra food we had. When we got back, they helped us park, helped us unload and had a trash bin--making cleanup fast and easy. I will definitely use them again. Service was amazing!!!

Review №55

The amount of alcohol that the customers consume is incredible. While sailing, I witnessed one of the boats full of drunks who nearly ran over 4 kayakers. Then later, while I needed to tack my boat, the drunks decided not to change course while I was moving towards them. I was also on starboard/right meaning I have right of way. So what do they do? They tell me to move even though I am in a dead stop to avoid them and I have sail power while they have motor, so they could have easily moved. Why are they given alcohol?

Review №67

Its an awesome experience riding around the Marina in the very clean Duffy boats which are equipped with radio and blue tooth to listen to your favorite music. The best time to rent the boats are during the Christmas holiday and make sure to ride through the Canal area which is line with beautiful expensive Christmas decorated homes, riding through it is like riding through a childs wonderland. Also one of the best things is that you can bring a pet and your own snacks. The staff is really nice and its just a fun thing to do with family. Also side note the boat only carries 12 passengers at a time no exceptions. The only con I can think of and the reason I gave it 4 stars is that its perhaps a little pricey $89 for 1 hour of riding. But the increase in price may be due to the new or renovated Fleet of boats. Enjoy

Came out with about 10 friends for a bday decided to cruise in the Duffy boat.Location - In the Long Beach marina area near Ballast Point.Parking - Hard to find parking on the busy weekend days.Service - Amazing service by everyone here, very accommodating, and willing to go out of the way to help.Prices - Not sure the total amount as we all pitched in, but I pitched in chump change, so guessing its a reasonable price.Boats - They actually need a bit of TLC as ours had a blown speaker and messed up throttle knob. But other than that boats are cool.Overall great staff, experience and I will be back another time.

These gents were very accommodating. My ski had an issue so I came back. Bringing it back to harbor is not a slow task, it’s chips away at the time allotted. They gave me a new ski and added plenty of extra time for the trouble. This is a must experience if you’re visiting from out of state.
