    Chairs and the yeti bag
    Jonathan M.

    Found these guys to be super helpful, chill, and inexpensive. We were able to get a yeti cooler bag which we used every day of our vacation filled it with goodies and had a perfect ice all day long. We also got six of their sand chairs which are off the hook awesome. We kept them in the back of our SUV and just walked him out to the beach each morning, they're on the heavy side but it's worth it! The pay off is worth it because They have a foot rest and they're super comfortable and durable. We almost rented a paddleboard but never got around to it Highly recommend

    We had a great experience with Captain Bill and Jason. They were fun, helpful, knowledgeable, and made this experience a great one. This was my first time parasailing and couldn't have picked a more beautiful place than in Captiva Island. We had beautiful weather and got to be dipped towards the end of our flight. We bought the picture package and received a SIM card after our flight. I wish so much that there was a better way to get the pictures, as I have only a phone and have to wait to get home from vacation to get on a computer to finally view them - I like instant gratification ;) Jason - if you read this - you're a cutie ;) I would definitely recommend YOLO!

    YOLO gets by in much of the same way that most Captiva businesses get by: there is no other option. While there is another competitor on the small island of Captiva, I will not name them in the review. This is about YOLO and I will review them as such. My husband and I have been renting golf carts and "scoot coupes" (essentially go carts you can drive through the island) from YOLO for the past few years. They have, in our opinion, reasonable prices for renting golf carts, although they do fill up quickly with reservations. Their scoot coupes have been available every time we've asked, probably because of the exorbitant price AND the fact that they only seat 2. However, if you're going on vacation with just a partner or a best buddy, I highly recommending renting one for the experience. Trust me. But anyways, on our most recent trip we rented a golf cart. Picking it up and dropping it off took minutes, which I loved, but I wish the service was a little more personable. I love making connections, as does my hubs, so it would be cool to talk to an employee who was interested in speaking more than just 'hi' and 'bye.' But more than anything, the brakes on our golf cart were acting up. It caused a couple of moments of panic at stop signs throughout the island. Overall, I feel as if YOLO is just... okay. Without many options around, it's hard to avoid them. (And I have to admit, I want to try their banana boat excursion.) But improving their customer service could easily catapult them from 3 stars to 4 or 5, and that's what I care about.

    So some reviews weren't very positive so I admit I was a little paranoid, but I didn't experience one problem with them. The prices were very reasonable and they offered a few more options than the other place did. Made reservation in advance and they took a deposit and sent us a confirmation. I called a week before we arrived to confirm and everything was all set. Arrived 10 mins before they opened and the nice young lady opened the doors and let us come in and pick up our cart. Check in and getting the cart was quick and simple. We were in and out in minutes. The cart was in good working order and we had no issues with it the entire rental time. Since we had to leave early the friday after thanksgiving we had to return it on thanksgiving by 3pm. It was quick and simple and all friendly service. Highly recommended!

    Getting ready to take off for Parasailing

    We came to Yolo Watersports after having lunch on Captiva Island. Our family of 7 was in Florida to celebrate a Birthday/Retirement/Family Vacation/Christmas you name it and we probably toasted to it. Most of us were in the mood for adventure and to do something fun, but kind of scary. Parasailing seemed like the perfect opportunity. Yolo has a cool shop full of watersports gear, rental, trinkets etc.. (I got a woven bracelet and a toe ring.) They also had an adorable puppy in training behind the counter. The staff was very laid back and prompt to answer any questions we had. After laying out the dough, we walked down the beach to meet our guide and the boat. (We changed into suits in the bathroom, car and port-o-potty. Not a ton of room was available.) Now we didn't exactly seek adventure on the most sunny or windy day. The sun was pretty much playing peek-a-boo. One minute you'd be blinded and trying to see down the beach and the next overcast and shivering. That's what we get for going to Florida in December though. The 5 dare devils in our party waded out through thigh high water and climbed up the side of the boat. I can't tell you how far we drove out or even what direction but these guys knew what they were doing. We went up in pairs, so my Dad got to go twice. After safely harnessing us (harness, life vest) in and giving us the most basic of instructions then the first pair went up. My poor sister shrieked like a banshee much to our delight, but calmed down after awhile. I can't say how long each pair was up in the air but it felt longer than it should have been. We figured the guys were bored on a slow day and were being generous. Worked out great for us! My husband I were the second pair to go up. It's an amazing experience to be floating that high and to see so much around you. Just as a I started to calm down a bit from initial panic, my smart alec husband started humming the Jurassic Park theme song. I laughed along until I realized, that we didn't have any instructions to signal below if something did go wrong! Thankfully we are both calm people, and nothing did go wrong but we wouldn't have known what to do! When we were up in the air, we saw a sea turtle surface and dive below again. We experienced dolphins along the boat and my sisters even saw sting rays from up above. All around the experience was great. We would definitely go back and use Yolo sports again.

    How's that for a beach hut rental shop?

    Been to Captiva twice, and visited Yolo multiple times on both trips. On top of myriad rental possibilities (we did bikes, and highly recommend!), the store is awesome with tons of fun, cool tchotchkies, and a great selection of tee shirts to pick from to take home as a souvenir. Great, quick service, fair prices, and good advice. Oh, and they sell Yeti equipment. Yes, that's a good enough reason for you to go. Check 'em out!

    Ok for renting. Much better options if you drive out. They capitalize on the distance/ limited options. Would not use again.

    Not professional. Could have much better customer service. Not be disrespectful. Would advise to never rent from them.
