This place has really gone down hill. New manager is not a pleasant fellow. Would rather argue about what you need rather than accommodate. The team does not seem to communicate well. I have getting my boat serviced here for a long time. Are all the safe harbors this way? read more

My husband lost a shirt we purchased from there a few years ago. Lucky for us, they still sell the same exact shirts they did back then. Same colors and design! read more

The problem with your reply is you act like the prop was broke but wouldn't show me one thats in "good" condition. It only takes a minute or two to lift a propeller up on a "good" boat because I feel like our propeller wasn't in bad shape as you guys made it sound. Never renting from you guys again and going to make sure everyone I know and all my family + their social media followers know to avoid your business. Worst experience for the most money I ever paid for and we've been renting for atleast 10 years from different places. read more

Called here and got a very polite lady named Janna who was extremely helpful and efficient. When we arrived, the boat was clean and ready and Toby helped us get started and answered any questions. Prices were good and we had a beautiful day. Would recommend this place in a heartbeat. read more

Did the sunset cruise last week out of Siesta Key Marina. Had a great time, the crew was funny and overall very good. One nice surprise that I missed on booking it, the sunset cruise includes beer and wine, nice. I was a little hesitant on doing a 3 hour sunset cruise, seemed like a long time to "wait" for sunset. However; by the time we: cruised by the mansions in around Sarasota with much background/history from the crew, a bird sanctuary, spotted some dolphins along the way, and ending at Sand Dollar Island for sunset, the time flew by. I highly recommend it. read more

This place has sure went to hell in a hand basket since they turned it into a Safe Harbor marina. The management team was disrespectful. Discourteous. And frankly they didn't want to move a boat out of the way so we had access to the canal. We tried to enter the basin to return to our dock next door and the owner of the vessel was an employee of the marina. It was in the way. So we offloaded our customers at the fuel dock and The manager lady then threatened us. Completely disrespectful and lack of management skills for a manager: read more

If I could give this place 0 I would. Scammers! They play this game that they give you a junky boat to rent but then only focus on the propeller???? They even make you take a picture of it no mention of all the other damage on the boat just the propeller...so when you get back the first thing they do is lift up the motor and all be darned the propeller looks as though it hasd been sawed right off! And now they want to charge your card for the damage I knew right away I was being played read more

Siesta Key Marina has got It going on! These guys know anything and everything about boating and where to find the best scuba diving on the key! Their service was speedy and the people were really nice. The boat itself was AWESOME and in tip top shape. Highly recommend this place for all boating needs ‼ read more

My family and I rented a boat for a day as a Father's Day surprise. My autistic 7yr old son broke his foot during our boat outing in addition to it raining and we were told by dock workers who provided my son with ice and a ride to our car to go to the office to obtain a partial refund but we were advised the refund is honored on a "case by case" basis. Perfect example of when humans become inhumane. read more

Friendly people. Great restaurant included. Participated in a sunset cruise, it was nirvana. Great experience.

Had a great time at the sand bar. We got to snorkel and hang out. We had Captain Andrew and Kevin. They were fun and goofy. We had a group of 13! read more

Well. Not the best rentals in the area that's for sure. Rented 20' for the day. Boat was pretty bad. Dirty; not even washed off FROM PREVIOUS DAY. Rusty areas. Plugs don't work. Charged us for radio which we didn't have. Bimini top tearing. Overall they don't take care of their boats. We found a bag of bait from previous day. Anchor ropes etc have seen better days. Owner gave us $10 off. Boat rented for $320. read more

Searched for sunset boat cruise and found Fun Boat Tours, which really was the marina. Low price, personal touch and absolutely had a great time! Thanks Capt. Kevin! Oh and the music was perfect! Sunset at Sand Dollar Island was an experience! read more

The good news, they were able to provide parking places in their service area parking lot. The other news, if the last boat they have is a center console, don't rent it. What a dog. It won't get up on plane. It'll suck gas like no tomorrow. $64/16 gallons for a three hour rental. But then I can't be sure I used 16 gallons because the gas gauge doesn't work. read more

Zero stars across the board. I agree with the other person who mentioned that they make you take a picture of the propeller just so they can charge you at the end. We took the boat out today and followed all directions as they told us(we were even going super slow because my daughter was afraid due to some weather we were seeing and it was choppy). We noticed half way through the trip that the boat was not moving as fast so we went back and asked them what the issue was . Right away they asked to see the picture we took and told us it was damaged. It was as if this happens all the time and then charged us $250 bucks. Never again!!!!! Not to mention that we lost an hour and a half of our boating time that we already paid for. read more

The staff was so helpful and nice, and I loved the dog that hung out in the office! I will definitely rent from them again!

These guys are the sh*t! They took us out to amazing waters! My sister thought it was the best bachy party ever :D But seriously. If you want great music, byob, some sandbar action, a great captain and first mate, and the most relaxing day you've ever had. Just do it. Like nike. And then never regret it ever. Next time I'm in siesta key, chartering with them. Viva l'aqua! :D read more

Not a great experience. The owners refused to honor my $20 off coupon, said it was expired even though the coupon clearly states it expires January of 2017 - they did honor a $15 coupon instead -_- Rented a 21' or 22' boat, but they sent us out with no back anchor (which is their SOP apparently) and the anchor we did have would not secure the boat. I'm not an experienced boater, but several individuals out in their own boats tried to help us and said specifically that the anchor was too small for that boat. We couldn't anchor and get off the boat anywhere because the boat kept drifting away - I actually broke my finger trying to get the boat back at one point. The water was very choppy, there was lightning and a Hazardous Marine Conditions warning issued by NOAA just south of us, so we took the boat back after having it a total of 2 unpleasant hours. When I returned the boat they gave me a hard time about adjusting the price- they even still wanted me to pay the full day of pre-paid fuel. If you're more experienced, and have necessary equipment at your disposal, this may be a better option for you than it was for us. *The guy who did the pre-walk through on the boat with me was great! I think his name was Jordan. read more

See all

It wasn't awful scenery and a nice stop if the tour guides weren't super obnoxious and annoying. The big guy with shaggy blonde hair tries way to hard to be obnoxiously funny and try to make people do things on the boat they don't wanna do then rag on them for it. read more

captain kevin and janet were AMAZING!!!!!!!!! very family friendly and so much fun. if your looking for something to do for the afternoon/ early morning the sand bar tour is so much fun!!! a lot of activities to do on the beach including paddle boarding (which was a lot of fun) and many other activities to do with the family!!! water is shallow and a lot of shells. all round an AMAZING experience!!!!!! read more
