We rented from Black Pearl a few weeks ago and had an excellent experience. This is my third time renting a pontoon boat in the Sarasota Bay, but my first time with Black Pearl. This was by far the most pleasant experience weve had. Captain Larry is thorough in his overview of the boat and the bay. The boat was well-equipped and clean with a full tank of gas that is included with the rental fee. The full-day rental fee is very reasonable for the area. My family and kids had a blast. This has become a yearly tradition for my family, and I plan to chose Black Pearl over and over again. Thanks for a wonderful day.
We rented a home on the canal through Cottages on the Key and decided to rent a boat again from the Black Pearl. As always Larry was very accommodating and very helpful throughout the process. He delivered the boat, gave very helpful recommendations, and went above and beyond to make our experience the best!!! Our entire family had a great time using the boat and we all had a great time in Siesta - Thanks Larry!!
OUTSTANDING SERVICE!! We stayed at The Grand Canal Home in Siesta Key with the vacation rental company, The Cottages On The Key. We rented the pontoon boat from The Black Pearl of Siesta Key and Captain Larry was absolutely the best! We conveniently had the boat docked at the home for us when we arrived. Captain Larry met with us at the home to clarify any questions and was just the nicest person you can imagine to ever meet. We took the boat out many times and had really fun memories out in the water. Even dolphins we saw during sunset hours, which was a beautiful memory. Exceptional service, we highly recommend reaching out to Captain Larry!!!
What an amazing day out on the gulf today! Black pearl of Siesta Key boat rental was such a great experience from the beginning to end! Thank you Captain Larry so much for making it easy, fun and memorable! :)
Larry delivered a beautiful pontoon boat direct to our canal front rental. He was very thorough with instructions and had great recommendations for day trips. The boat ran great and was very clean. We were able to drive to areas that are unreachable by foot and less crowded. Not having to have the boat back in by 5:30 pm like the rest of the rental locations was great as we were able to enjoy the sunsets while coming into dock. We are avid boaters and rent from many locations and this by far was the best experience Ive had. We will rent from the Black Pearl every time we visit from here on.
We rented a home on the canal through Cottages on the Key and decided to rent a boat through Black Pearl to enhance our canal vacation. We are so glad we did! Larry was very accommodating and very helpful throughout the process. He delivered the boat, gave very helpful recommendations, and went above and beyond to make our experience the best. The boat was beautiful, comfortable and impeccably kept. I definitely wouldnt hesitate to do this again!
Exceptional service and a great experience. The boat was in great condition, and could easily handle our group of 8. Larry was very helpful in pointing out everything we needed to know. He did everything to ensure we enjoyed the trip, and we most definitely did! We stopped at the Salty Dog for lunch and pulled up to the beach at South Lido Park. It was a beautiful day.
Larry went out of his way to accommodate us and we couldnt have been more pleased. He was in constant communication with drop off and pick up times with the boat and explained operations completely. Highly suggest!
