On Vacation in Anna Maria Island Florida when I had an unfortunate fender bender. I "bumped" into one of Beach Bum's rentals, with our personal cart. Whole process was handled in a very professional & friendly manner, to include the Manatee County Sheriff's Office! AMI can beam with pride, knowing such a reputable business is representing & thriving in their town. AND MCSO Deputy V. Bowman, appreciating your Service Sir, THANK YOU! read more

We had the best time biking around the island! It was a super easy process to rent a bike and we decided to do a one hour rental. Since we were going to the beach later, this was the perfect amount of time to enjoy the island on bike. I think if you're staying for a few days on the island it would be worth it to rent a bike out for the week since everything is close by. I love that they had so many bright colors to choose from and that each bike comes with a basket to put your belongings in. The staff was very friendly and thoroughly explained to us all the rules for renting a bike. This spot also rents out kayaks, golf carts, paddle boards, etc. Definitely recommend biking around AMI! read more

Rented a Moke from them. I had so much fun driving in it!!! Comfy and has all front facing seats. Lots of room for beach gear!! Very friendly folks!! Pricing is very reasonable!! Highly recommend!! read more

Bike, kayak & golf cart rentals. We just wanted to rent bikes for an hour or two and they did have a five dollar per hour option. We got three beach stroller bikes with baskets and locks. Staff was nice and quick. Only complaint was the one pedal made super loud crackling noise the whole time, but we got used to it. read more

We had a great experience working with Maddie and finding one of the only places on AMI that rent tandem bicycles. They provide helmets, lock, horn and even a headlight and taillight. A few online forms to sign and initial and your card is charged the day of the rental. The delivery and pickup of your rental equipment is hassle free. I would definitely recommend. read more

Great place to rent bikes from! Id give them 10 stars if I could! Due to a little snaffu with my waiver(my bad), I talked to Sunny on the phone several times and she was consistently professional and super friendly. The guy who dropped off the bikes was also great. Thanks again, Beach Bums! read more

Taylor was super helpful! Bikes were great. The price was reasonable. We would go back and rent again!

We started our trip with this place and ended it with this place. From start to finish they were welcoming, inviting, and caring! They were really helpful with getting us situated with our luggage and all, while our place of stay was not ready yet. We got the Gem, highly recommend! Also for chairs and umbrella for the week, so glad we did! Highly recommend this place. The employees were top notch! read more

My son and I rented cruiser bicycles from Beach Bums during our April vacation. From the friendly and attentive staff the second we walked in the door (truly friendly....not at all sales person pushy), to the wonderful service we received with dropping the bicycles off at our rental and even when we had an issue (our fault, not Beach Bums) with one of the bikes, I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff. If we go back to AMI, I will most certainly use Beach Bums again!!!! read more

These people, both office personnel and mechanics who take care of the golf carts, were some of the kindest people I've done business with on AMI. I had two golf carts that experienced minor problems but the staff were very apologetic and furnished me with suitable replacements immediately. All of the people involved could not have been nicer. They've got my business next year! read more

Great place to rent bikes. Super-nice staff, easy process, pickup, delivery and free helmets, baskets and locks. We were set for the week on single-speed cruiser bikes to see the island (which is really easy to navigate and ride- FLAT!). Pricing is very reasonable. Go here if you need a bike of any kind- they'll take care of you with a smile! read more

This place would get more stars if I could give it to them. We rented a bike for the week we were there and a kayak for a few days. The bike rentals were very reasonably priced, and the bike was easy to use. The kayak rental was also super reasonably priced. We rented the kayak for three days and got a deal on the third day. Because our rental house was also super close to the store, they said if there was time that day they would drop it off early. We were swimming in the pool when the kayak came. The guy dropping it off saw us and said that he had a bigger kayak back at the shop that would probably fit us a bit more comfortably (my husband is just over 6'). He drove off and a few minutes later dropped off a bigger kayak for us. He totally didn't have to do that. It was also really nice because we basically got an extra half day with the kayak for free. They also said they would pick up the kayak on the last day around 12:00, but they didn't really come till closer to 2:00. So we basically paid for 2ish days (got the deal for a three day rental) but had the kayak for like 4. read more

I get why they have 5 stars. They r super customer service, super efficient, and super duper helpful! You can come here for bike rentals, kayaks, boats, electric bikes, and golf rentals. You can pick which one you would like, and for example, for your bike, pick which one fits best for you, and they will make sure it's thoroughly ready and good to go. You will see they have bikes in the front, and bikes in the back. It was $15 for the whole day which was cheaper than keeping it for a few hours. It worked out perfect for us, and Anna Maria Island is the perfect place to bike ride everywhere. This was a super A+ experience. They have a good amount of fun souvenirs and cute stuff to browse and buy! read more

Overall: Would rent from them again based on customer service alone and equipment in great condition. Service: 5 stars- Decided to check out their chairs before renting so did a drive by. We got out of the car and started heading to front when someone from the back lot asked if they could help us. We told them we were looking for a lounge chairs. He took us over to a cabinet and showed us what they offered. When we selected the lounger than had a foot rest. He pulled one out and set it up for my wife to try. After we decided on getting two, he stated to go up front and he would load them into our car. We entered the front to counter and she did the paperwork straight away and it was done. They offered to deliver free of charge (as well as pick up) but stated we we are picking up now and they could pick up later. They also offered a free kick in case we needed it which we agreed we wanted one upon our leaving island before pickup. We went back outside the the gentleman stated he tried to load them up but our car was still locked (oops). He loaded them, gave us the lock and away we went. On Saturday, we locked chairs and they apparently sometime picked the chairs up since we haven't heard anything. Equipment: 5 stars- equipment was in great condition with no problems. read more

We rented bikes for the morning and had a great time! Service was great and the bikes were well maintained. It was a great way to see more of the island and will do it again! read more

I'd give more stars if I could! Everyone was very nice and Cory was extremely helpful. A big shoutout to him for helping us out with recommendations on food and sweets. We initially rented a kayak in the afternoon but the day seemed to be getting cloudy and there was thunder so he was nice enough to change our reservation for the next morning which turned out even better. He explained everything super well and was so helpful! We also rented bikes and how convenient that they deliver it to your house. We were worried, as we don't have a bike rack but everything was perfect! We rented the bikes and they were delivered in the next hour or so, would definitely recommend their rentals for anyone that visits this beautiful island! read more

We ordered a 4 person golf cart and it looked great and new on their website. Once we received the cart, we got the oldest cart in the lot. It was rusted and dusty and definitely very old. We asked for a discount or a different cart and they said they were unable to work with us. At least they provided a refund but very disappointed with the quality of these carts, wish they were a little nicer. read more

I stopped by their gift shop with the intention on buying me and my kids some shirts. Two ladies at the register and neither of them greeted us. We walked around looking around and then I had a question about the kids sizes. One of the ladies proceeded to look at me not say hi or anything and I asked her my question and she just said no that's all we had and got on the phone and looked away. It was so off putting that I went to a different shop for some shirts. No way I would spend my money on ladies with attitude. I'm all about customer service and for something as simple as shirts they failed to make a good impression. read more

High quality rental equipment and a great staff that knows what they are doing. They'll deliver and pick up from your vacation home. They have reasonable prices. My companion I rented bicycles in were very happy with the quality of the bike and everything done to make it a good experience. As a guy of a certain age with a bad back I had no problem getting a so called female style bike... It was easy to get on and off of the bikes were brand new shifted very well and were very good on the street. The staff is heard us with was Chris a former Marine combat veteran great guy and he knows his stuff as do everyone else back there. read more

I can not say enough great things about Beach Bums. The service is always top notch. They go out of their way to make sure everything is right. When COVID-19 hit and we had to cancel our reservation two days from our reservation, they were accommodating and did not charge a cancellation fee, which was within their legal right to do, unlike @annamariavacations (Yelp Reviewed). Suggest you book your rentals as early as possible as they fill up quickly. See you next Spring! read more

Went there to quickly rent an umbrella and chairs but they already ran out of the umbrella by midday. So we got a neso sunshade, something we never used before. It was a bit tricky to put up for a first timer but after that it was so much better than an umbrella or even a small beach Cabana. They explained it to us nicely how to set it up. Apparently they have cute whale mugs. Go get yourself one!!! read more

great selection, great service, cute bike crew, would not get rental bikes anywhere else on the island read more

My family came on a week long vacation to Anna Marie. We rented two golf carts. By the end of the trip, both golf carts had to be replaced. One had very poor brakes and the other broke down. However, the customer service was good, they were very willing to fix the issue, but it was still an inconvenience. read more

Best service on the whole island!! Cory and Ryan were GREAT!! They specialized in the bike rental area in the back and were extremely helpful and knowledgeable about where to ride on the island and good restaurants to check out too. We ended up renting 6 beach cruisers for the entire family to cruise around on for our week stay in Florida. We had a stinking blast. Beach Bums make the rental process very easy and even drops off and picks up the bikes from wherever you're staying on the island, which was very convenient. My boyfriend Ben and I were here for a family beach house trip from California and absolutely loved Beach Bums and talking with Cory and Ryan. They made the entire experience of renting bikes smooth and fun. We ride road bikes in California and appreciated their shared love for cycling. read more

We were looking for something to do on our last day while it was overcast. We decided to rent bikes from Beach Bums, and it was great! We rented for the day, and that included free delivery and pick-up, which was really convenient. Cory delivered our bikes, and was super helpful. He made sure everything was adjusted properly for our kids, and gave some great island advice while he was at it. All the bikes came with baskets, which was great for water bottles and towels, and the bikes also came with lights for a night ride. The bikes were all in good shape, and functioned perfectly. If you're looking for reasonably priced fun with great customer service, I'd recommend this place! read more

Very nice team. Best prices in the area. You will see if the shop around. We rented a tandem bicycle for the day and rode around the northern loop of the island. They give you a lock and key so you can go where ever you want. Highly recommend!! read more

We rented bikes, chairs, and umbrellas from Beach Bums. Everything was delivered on time (early!) and in good condition. They were very easy to schedule. We also went on a kayak tour with them. Our tour guide, Derks, was very knowledgeable and patient with our boys. They asked lots of questions and he was great answering them. The tour was the right length of time. We recommend the tour! read more

Great spot to rent bikes on AMI, bikes that baskets which was a plus! friendly staff and the prices are reasonable.

I highly recommend renting from this business! Everyone here was so friendly! The house we rented had bikes and one needed air. We stopped, they not only put air in the tires but also greased it for no charge. They also let us borrow a paddle for a kayak. I cannot say enough positive things about this place! We will be using them whenever we return to AMI! read more

We rented 4 beach cruiser bikes from here while on AMI with the family. They will drop off and pick up the bikes with helmets, locks and baskets on each bike. Totally worth the price for a way to get around AMI!! read more

Great Rental Place This place is located on Anna Maria Island. It's probably the only place for the immediate vicinity. It rents bikes, gold carts, kayaks as well as other things. We went there for the kayaks. Precious told me the story about how her brother had rented a sea kayak and that it looked fun so sea kayaking was on our minds. Plus in this area are a lot of sea life including dolphins and manatees. Precious likes dolphins. The place is not on the water. It's in the middle of town. But you go in there, arrange for your kayak and pay, and they tell you where to meet the dude. By the time we got to the arranged location, the dude was already there unloading our kayak. The dude had a map of the area, and he had marked places that he thought we might like. The place where you take off is on the east side of the island so the water is very calm. Of course Precious took off directly towards the area where the dude said we might see some dolphins. We saw some manatees, dolphins, a sea turtle and probably about a thousand fish big and small. We beached the kayak and had lunch. Then we just cruised around. After we finished we called the place, and they sent someone to pick up the kayak. It was a fun day. The people were nice. The price was reasonable. The only problem is that Precious got a bad sunburn. We otherwise would have come back, but Precious was hurting. read more

Great service and extra friendly. Chris replaced my bicycle tire inner tube I had overfilled with air and blown out. He advised a lower tire pressure for the Florida heat and gave me several fishing tips a places to eat on the island. All this for $14. In and out in 20 minutes. read more

They have everything you need. The staff is great! Very helpful, honest and customer focused. Competitive prices and fast delivery.

Beach Bums is the place to go for your kayak tour! Jerry was an AMAZING tour guide. As an AMI local he was extremely knowledgeable about the marine life as well as the different birds in the area. Although Mother Nature often decides what you see we were fortunate enough to see numerous fish species, birds, dolphins and a pod of five manatees on our trip. We would also like to give a shout out to Chris, USMC, that helped Jerry get us and the kayaks to and from our locations. read more

Our family decided to sign up for a kayak tour at Beach Bums. We had 4 seats so it was enough to go as a single group (there's a 4 person minimum). It was an awesome trip which I highly recommend! Our guide, Rick, was super friendly - he gave a great tour which included seeing and learning about the local wildlife. We got to see two dolphins up close which was a treat for everyone. We also learned some cool facts and history of Anna Maria Island and the surrounding area. If you're considering kayaking around AMI this was a great way to try it for the first time. Great for kids too! read more
