Definitely recommend this family-friendly trip!

We rented for a special occasion ! This was our 4th time renting from beach weekend ! It was our…read morefriends sons graduation trip and this was supposed to be best day of the 6 day stay with us on emerald coast . I speak highly of beach weekend because the kids working the docks are always so nice and accommodating . But this time we waited 20 mins with our dolley cart loaded while everyone working inflated floats for customers and walked around ...... we were just about to say something then someone walked up to give my hubs the boat walk through . This time we didn't get a boat with the complimentary huge cooler . It was a smaller boat . Too late to switch but ask for that one if you can because it's nice transferring everything to there big cooler and not have 5/7 yetis on one pontoon . This trip the boat we rented broke down 1/2 way to crab ..... it delayed us over an hour waiting for new boat . We swam around where we were parked and chilled. Totally fine and happy waiting in gorgeous clear water off oakaloosa . When they came to replace it we had to unload current boats bags and coolers for 10 people to new boat . Not bad but kinda added more time to find where everyone's stuff was after we quickly moved . We were kinda annoyed he said we could have an extra 30 mins added to our trip . We told him we were delayed over an hour so he said 1 hour passed our time scheduled to return ...... It's likely we will rent from them again in July because of all the great experiences we've had in the passed . They do military discounts and it's pretty reasonably priced . Plus they drive the boat out and in the marina for you...... I would have been happy if they gave us more then an additional hour that we missed or a discount on the next rental ..... we got there at 10:30am . 30 mins before our check in time . But we legit didn't get to crab till after 1 between waiting to load then the boat beeping and stalling out 1/2 way there .

He went over the top while we were at Crab Island - blowing up rafts, going to the food boats for us, etc. We booked a four hour charter but could have stayed all day, we had so much fun!

I didn't plan ahead, which was a mistake because everyone was booked. I ended up calling up Anchor and I was lucky to find that they had one boat left because of a cancellation so I hurried out to Fort Walton Beach to go pick it up. Sign in was really easy and after hearing that we were complete novices when it came to fishing, Hank went out of his way to hook us up with some live bait. It was a ton of fun and Anchor made things really, really easy. I admittedly prefer the waters around Destin, but you know...the next time I get a boat, I might get one here anyway.

He even radioed a friend and got us to see a dolphin! He was incredibly accommodating to us on the boat and made us feel right at home. He had all the right connections too and was able to get us food and fun things like coconuts drinks. He was very nice, upbeat and relaxed personality while still giving you confidence that he had everything under control. After going to crab island I can see that booking with a captain like Robbie verses renting a boat on our own was 100% the way to go.

Kenny, the gentleman that showed us how to use the boat, kindly helped load up our gear and hauled it to the boat for us. He gave a thorough explanation of how to use the boat and how to get to crab island. His cell phone was provided and he was available later in the day yo give directions on how to get to other places. When we arrived back at the dock Kenny was there to help us load up all of our gear again. It was a great experience and money well spent. We will use Funday again when we visit Florida In the future.

The regard and concern was terrible . He basically said figure it out . I planned this for us and I just cried. Mind you we paid 400+ dollars but we stayed longer on the trip bc of the boat rental only to say mechanical issues , pretty much 30 Mins before we leave out . Just terrible service and also didn't even try to Compensate or help us out . We spent over $200 at Walmart just to feed us and little things for us to have a fun day out . Waste of my time and money . I'm really at a lost of words . Terrible business.

There is no one better than this company for your pontoon rental needs. They are all professional,…read morecourteous, informative, helpful, and laid back. You get your option of two different pontoons that you yourself captain. Those two options are the pontoon with or without the two slides. We opted for without as it is easier to maneuver on days where it is windy. Both have a shaded canopy on deck, so you are not sitting in the sun the entire time. You can rent the radio and mat for the water and even take your dog. We have not rented any of these as we usually just bring our speaker. The other options are the length of time; you get a choice of 4 or 8 hours. We always opt for 4 because they is plenty of time. Overall, they offer a convenient and fun addition to anyone's FL vacation. We will absolutely be back!
