I have used South Florida Boat Rental numerous times whether it was for birthdays, holidays, or just simple joy rides. I have had a great experience every time I have used them. Sam and his team are always professional and make it a goal to ensure that you have a great time, but keep yourself as well as everyone out on the water safe. I will forever recommend SFBR and highly encourage you to book with them because a great time is a guarantee.

Great experience on the water with a larger group. The staff was extremely friendly and showed us a great time on the water. Highly recommend this place and having a captain. Captain Pat was awesome and took us all around to some great spots.

Great place to rent a boat and get out on the water since day one! Perfect day at the sand bar, offshore fishing or both in the same day! 10/10!

If your looking to support a local business dont choose this one. They held a $500 security deposit on my card that was 1 supposed to be a pending hold and 2 to be released as long as the boat came back in the same condition it left. Not only did the charge go through but when me and my family called we weree given the run around for 3 weeks straight by the person answering the phone. She said the accounting department would get back to me and they never did. when i asked for the personal number of the owner or accounting department she just gave me an email address. I put quotations because I doubt there is a department this place doesnt even have an office. Some kid without even a uniform meets you on the dock with an ipad- theres not even signage for the business. This is the type of place that if I hadnt chased after them for my refund they would have kept my money which makes it theft. a long way to go until they are a real business seems a lot like a scam. my daughter said the boat was old too not the nice new looking picures on the site.

South Florida boat rentals is unwilling to accommodate Groupon customers. do not buy the Groupon. They had availability for the days I wanted to rent a boat until they heard I was a Groupon customer and then they said they were at their limit for Groupon customers for the month of March and it’s only March 11.

HORRIBLE. DIDNT RESPOND TO PHONE CALLS. SAY THEY WILL CALL BACK, NEVER DO. ADVERTISE ON GROUPON THEN DONT HONOR THE GROUPON. CALLED AND ASKED WHY THEY ARE NOT HONORING THE GROUPON AND WOMAN BEGAN SCREAMING AT ME AND HUNG UP. RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL,.AND AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE SOUTH FLORIDA BUSINESS COMMUNITY.

DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY ! WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. I did not damage their boat whatsoever and they charged my account $3,000. Ended my rental early and could not show one shred of evidence that the boat was damaged. The boat was a piece of garbage to begin with. Theyd be lucky if they could sell the boat for $1,500 and yet the somehow charge me 3k? My attorneys have already began filing suit.

The response was fast. The appointment was able to be made the day of our calling.The facility was hard to locate so the staff met us on the pier. Nice person who helped us.The boat appeared to be heavily used. That’s okay because it’s a rental.Upon departing it became apparent the boat was very dilapidated. The steering was skewed. While traveling at idle speed, the boat would drift left. I would continually turn left to compensate. I never turned right. I turned left slowly for 30 minutes which was mentally draining. It was annoying.During breaks, between no wake zones, throttling up would lead to a high rpm with no forward momentum. The motor sounded like it was going to blow up with RPM. We turned around and went back to the dock.We didn’t insist on money back but sure hoped the company would be a good steward of service.It was a very depressing to have those plans upset.We won’t use this company again.

Do not book with south florida boat rental! they are unreliable and will show up late with no regard. The owner is rude, treats his employees terrible and has no care for customer service. Not only did they show up late, but changed the route to our planned day. Not once did i get an apology.please save yourself the trouble and money! you do not want to book with this company.

The worst service you can come cross here. Make sure you do not give them your card number because they will charge you multiple charges without you permission. If you want to see how rude and bad service try calling them first and see for yourself the way they speak to customers.

Talk about a diced up experience! They gave me a large selection of boats and yachts to choose from. They helped us pick the perfect yacht for our group. We cruised over to the Bahamas for a few nights and had an unforgettably amazing trip. The crew and captain aboard were awesome and super friendly! We will be back!

Review №35

When planning for our summer vacation last year, we knew that renting a boat for a day or two would be in the plans of our trip. So we searched for boat rentals in South Florida and this company provided the best prices that we could easily fit into our budget. Once we called to rent a yacht, the service was very accommodating and friendly. I was very pleased with how well kept the yacht was and how the captain was well experienced and made my family and I feel like we could really enjoy ourselves. We absolutely plan on using this rental service for our next vacation!

The actual rental boat is boarded at a local boat launch/park where they have the boat ready to go when you arrive. I was here in April, and there was plenty of parking. This might be different in peak season. The staff was very friendly. I rented a 23 hurricane deck boat. It was a 2005 with newer engine. The boat was well kept, all things considered. Very happy with the half day rental.

Amazing experience from beginning to end. We rented the 48 Formula for 10 people. Beautiful boat!Allex was so helpful with my requests and helping me find the best boat for the group budget. The online booking process was super simple and easy!Joe, the yacht owner gave a great heads up on the marina parking instructions and what to expect upon arrival to the Yacht Club. He even called the day before to reassure me on the weather forecast (it was cloudy and raining the day prior).The day out on the water was great! Henry the driver was excellent, he had a great knowledge of the area, and gave a great tour. We stopped at the Sandbar and to our surprise they blow up a water raft for you! Henry was an awesome captain, throwing us drinks so we didnt have to get in/out of the water. Ive chartered a boat with other companies in the past but this by far was the best experience and you cannot beat these prices!10/10 - I highly recommend!Okay - I’m back a year later!I’ve had two more successful boating trips this year during the pandemic. The staff was highly knowledgeable about the current restrictions per size of boat and was able to accommodate one large party outing (10ppl) and then a second day on the water for (6ppl).Everything went smoothly! The boats were both timely and the captains were very friendly! We loved our time out on the water and you can’t beat the 15% discounts they offer!Great rates and great service! 10/10 once again.

Review №73

Our family researched the best company to rent a boat from while we vacationed in Southern Florida last December. It was out first time in the area and we wanted the best possible experience. We decided to call South Florida Boat Rentals and were connected with Captain Sam. The weather was questioanble and we already had another booking cancelled (with a different company) . Sam was GREAT! He toally understood our concern to commit when the weather wasnt very co operative.Although the policy was clear, he would make exceptions as he wanted to make our experince the best one possible. (It was my sons 21st birthday)Anyway, I could go an and on as to how fantastic our experience was with Sam and this company, but ultimately my 5 star rating will reflect our experience. I would HIGHLY recommend South Florida Boat rental, they provide excellent customer service, with flexibilty and professionalism. Thanks Captain Sam for a fabulous day!!!!!The Tapp Family from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canana
