We had a great time cruising around for the day! Boats are all relatively new and really nice. Check in was simple and in no time we were off enjoying the water. Very accommodating staff! We will be back!

I rented a pontoon Tuesday and had a great experience! Keeleigh, Hannah, and Tyler were there to help us through the process. They were all super friendly and helpful and answered any and all questions we had. We went out about an hour and half later than the rental which was OK because we were waiting on one person from our party to show up. During they time they chatted with us and remained super friendly, even offered for us to start our trip while we were waiting for our person and come back to pick them up. We went out for a very special occasion, near and dear to us. We were celebrating the life of someone so special to us. So, for them to make this process smooth and friendly added to the extra special time for us. Thank you guys so much for the great experience! I would absolutely rent from ya'll again!

Fantastic experience! Super friendly staff, explained everything very thoroughly and the boat was clean and easy to use. Check out Shell Key, throw an anchor and relax for hours. Totally worthwhile way to experience being on the water at Treasure Island.

We had a wonderful experience renting from Treasure Island boat rentals! It was easy to make a reservation and the check in process was well managed. The boat we were given was in great shape and very clean. There was ample parking and it is an easy to find location. The staff is very friendly and goes above and beyond to serve their customers. In fact, I dropped an earring in the marina and Austin graciously jumped in to retrieve it. When it first he cannot find it, he searched for it while we were gone and was finally able to locate it! His perseverance and customer service was amazing! We will definitely be renting from here again.

It was a pleasure renting a boat they where more than accommodating and we had a great half day on the water in a well kept pontoon boat.

Our family of 12 rented a boat from here and enjoyed it very much so! Checking in was easy, and the staff was super friendly and helpful! You have to stay in the bag and cannot go out to the gulf. I would recommend people who have never driven a boat to not rent this without someone with experience though because there were huge boats speeding past us and huge wakes that were scary even for our experienced captain! The anchoring process isn't easy so make sure to read up on that! The boats were extremely nice and almost brand new looking! There was a large cooler and lots of storage under the seats for food! It was a great day on the water!!

I had a great experience with these guys. They are right down the street from my house. They get the paperwork out of the way quickly and and give a quick safety tour and off you go. There's so many of these types of places around, but I could see myself using them. Clean boat, no hidden charges and a good time.

We rented a 24' pontoon on 7-20 for 1/2 day during Red Tide, and had a fantastic experience!! The Bentley boat accommodated our large group of 14, and was extremely well kept especially when comparing to other boats I've rented from other companies. After reading a recent review, I want to express that the employees of this company ARE very professional. Nick and his associate Kayleigh (?) ARE extremely thorough with explaining everything, including where to navigate to have the best experience because of the red tide. In no way did I ever feel that I was given misinformation, and I was completely aware of my responsibilities when I left their dock. Hats off to you guys, thanks for the great experience, and keep up the good work! Definitely recommend!

Very courteous staff and basically new luxury pontoon boats that are very spacious and comfortable (reasons for 5 star). Word for inexperienced boaters or those unfamiliar with this stretch of the ICW... there are no depth finders or GPS units on the vessels so download an app to help with dodging the spoils and staying between the red and green markers.

What a great day on the water! Reserving a boat is the the most simplest thing to do on their web page; we reserved our date and paid for the rental in less than 5 minutes. Prior to our rental day we received a confirmation email with a link with directions to the rental location. Check in at the facility was super-easy; we were greeted by a friendly employee who had us sign the rental contract and provided a boat and waterway orientation. We were provided with a chartlet of the waterways we were allowed to operate which made our boating day really simple. They have coolers available and CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN bathrooms to use before you leave the dock. Our boat was was a Bentley Pontoon boat, this thing was brand new and very nice. Lots of room to spread out and relax, Bluetooth speakers included and a super-quiet motor. We spent the entire day on the ICW and enjoyed seeing dolphin, pelicans and taking in the sights. This place is friendly to tourists as well as locals. I'm a local who does not want to own a boat, but, our family enjoys a good day on the water. This was a hassle free day, we picked up an impeccable boat and dropped it off when we were done. No cleaning, no fueling, no maintenance and no worries. Do yourself a favor; go rent a pontoon boat from Treasure Island Boat Rentals and enjoy Florida, you won't be disappointed.

We booked a 21 foot deck boat a week in advance on out trip to Florida. On our day of the rental the weather was very windy but we thought we would try and go out as it was our only chance to go. We went out but everyone was cold so we came back after 1.5 hours. The owners worked with us and gave us some our our rental cost back which was very nice of them! We really appreciated them working with us. the staff is also very friendly and helpful.

Awesome Experience!! John was excellent in explaining the maps, boat features, etc. Our boat was the exact same Bentley pontoon boat as shown in the picture. Had to review this place because they have come a long way after the previous ownership's awful reviews. We highly recommend this business.

After researching a boat rental for my family while on vacation I was extremely hesitant to even give Treasure Island Boat rental a try after reading the reviews and the response from the owner. While at Johns Pass we stopped in and spoke to the parasailing booth and learned that they’re all owned and part of Treasure Island Boat Rental. Billy was very kind, professional and explained the scenario of the reviews and we regained our confidence. After speaking with Billy we went ahead and stoped by and another very nice lady assisted us, cannot remember her name (blonde hair) reassured us that unexpected cost or even double was not common in fact very irregular to the majority of responsible parties who rent from them. We rented a pontoon for 10 of us. Upon arrival we signed the waivers and another very helpful gentleman went through a detailed orientation and we all left feeling confident . Shell island was a huge hit for our family. No extra fees were incurred and we only ended up using $33 in fuel. All around a very positive experience and since we do vacation here yearly we will definitely be back! As a owner of a company I understand how very important online reviews are so I felt obligated to share our experience for those who were hesitant like me when researching a boat rental. 5 Stars from us!! Thanks for the great time.

We rented a pontoon boat with the family today and had a great time. The staff was very helpful and friendly the whole time. We followed the map, guidelines, and instructions and never had a problem. I believe that people cause their own problems and create their own bad situations. We will rent from them again when we come back and we also recommend renting from them.

Me and my family/friends had an awesome time with Treasure Island Boat Rentals. Kyle, Ryan and the girl up front (I think her name is Niki) are awesome and super friendly. Everything was so simple and easy from booking the boat to being out in the water. We had a ton of fun and we can’t wait to come back. The owner is also very nice and accommodating and we were really happy with how everything turned out with our rental. I definitely would recommend Treasure Island Boat Rentals!

We booked our rental easily online. When we arrived, the staff was polite and courteous and spent time going through the map with us. My only advice would be to clearly mark the names of the restaurants on the map. Being new to the area, we weren’t sure what we were looking for. We had a relaxing day at Shell Island and would definitely recommend it when visiting the Treasure Island/St. Pete area.

We are boat people on Lake Michigan and while vacationing down In Treasure Island we decided to rent a pontoon boat and treat our friends. What a great rental place this is. The staff is quite friendly and helpful (thanks Kyle). Their boats were quite new and clean. We rented the boat for 9 hours and enjoyed the Intercoastal Waterway. It’s really a wonderful way to see the area.

Great place to rent a boat for the day . 4 hours cost $240.00 longer and bigger boats are more . must leave valid credit card with attendant no charges will be made just for any damages that may occur. They start at 18 feet and go up to 12 passenger covered pontoon boat with others in between . Coast guard licensed and approved , fire extinguisher and life vests on board no cell phone or USB chargers . Laminated map on board to help you maneuver up and down the intercoastal waterway .taking a cell phone is a must in case you need help or have an accident or cant find you're way back . The boats have GPS attached to the boat so they can track wherever you go , the routes take you approximately 10 miles to the south and about 8 miles north going out into the gulf is prohibited.10.00 dollar off coupon in the Tampa Bay &gulf beaches guide-map No. 41 on the map .

Excellent Experience! Our family had a perfect day cruising the Intra Coastal. The employee on duty was very friendly and helpful. He made great suggestions on where to cruise and explained on the map where to go and what to avoid. We ended up at Shell Key which was a perfect distance to cruise to and a great place to spend a couple of hours.The boat was clean and in good shape and ran very well.Highly recommend this company.

Great price on boats with bimini tops and lots of freedom in the water. Local travelers will pay close to double if renting out near sarasota and end up with the same view, so worth the extra drive. Manager was pleasant and super helpful, offering to give directions to restaurants with boat access, etc. No problem bringing our dog aboard. Also, they're pretty lenient with the rental end time as long as you're back by 6pm. Navigation and depth indicator controls in working order.

Went parasailing with my friends, with Janine and Mark being the captains of the boat. They were so awesome!!! So friendly and helpful. We had such a good time on the boat with everyone!

I saw a lot of poor reviews and after reading them was able to find that most issues stemmed from being restricted to where you can navigate and the fact that rental boats must stay inside the intercoastal versus heading out to open Gulf waters. If you travel up and down the coast you will find the same rules at all rental places for this size of the craft. It is not the owner but rather the safety rules set by Coast Guard regulations to keep you safe. I have rented from Jeff at Treasure Island Rentals on multiple occasions in the past and always had great experiences on each encounter. If you call and tell them what you want to do before you show up they will tell you, yes or no, it is not up to them to change or modify the rules based upon what or why you want to do it. If you want to spend a great day on the water, tubing, swimming and playing in the water and sun with your family then this is the place you need to go. They have good equipment, great service and will get you exactly what you are looking for. If they tell you to stay in a channel in an area then, by all means, stay in the channel, Florida coastal areas have lots of low water spots and the last thing you want is to damage an $800 prop and put the boat out of service. I love to take my boat out and over to Egmont Key out in the open waters at the mouth of Tampa Bay, an amazing place. But you have to know the waters and they can be dangerous to small craft rental boats and are not permitted, know that before you go. Otherwise a great rental location in some beautiful waters.

I went here for my dads birthday a few months ago. It was my first time renting a boat, and it was a great time. We got the pontoon? boat and it fit around 8 people with PLENTY of extra space, we had an amazing time going all around the intercoastal and checking out John's Pass. Very friendly owner/employee and extremely affordable/fun day for a family. Would tell everyone about it.

owner, never said I have to care for myself not kids with cancer. Had a very bad year, and said I don't know if I can afford to take care of myself. Not very charitable to attempt to collect for a charity and then trash a guy for not contributing? For the others, I have been told by others I am a jerk and/or unfriendly everyone is entitled to their opinion :)

Thank you to Jeff and Dylan for making sure our afternoon on the water was great! There was a slight mix up with our reservation....but we were compensated and quickly directed to the Gulfsport location where we were on our way in no time. We anchored at Shell Key for a bit, had a great time out in the gulf, then a lovely ride back through John's Pass and the intercoastals...visiting with some dolphins along the way!! All this for less than the cost of a theme park and so much more relaxing!! Thanks again guys .....we will be back!

Live in the area and have rented from many and found it to be the best; it starts with Steve who makes it very simple honest process to rent, and over the others it has a lot of parking, easy in/out boating, and the day we needed a 12+ person boat it was the only boat rental that had one - an easy 5 stars.

Owner is good guy. I've rented from him 3 or 4 times over the years. Nice boats,well maintained. If you are an avid boater/boat owner you will appreciate these boats. Other boats at other rental spots in the area are JUNK! I highly recommend the 21' Deck boat,powered by a Big Mercury it will move! Prices are very fair,and comparable with the Bonus here once again being that these are nicer boats.

We rented a boat from Steve at Treasure Isle boat rentals for a half day. Such a great way to see the homes on the intracoastal waterway & just enjoy being on vacation! We saw a few dolphins as we were cruising along. We were given a map & precise instructions on where to go & where not to go. As long as you stay in the Channel you should be fine. Water can get shallow out of channel. I would def rent from here again.

You can't go wrong when you're on a boat, and seeing Dolphins! We rented a boat for half the day, there was 5 of us, 3 adults and two 16yr olds. We had plenty of room to move about the boat to enjoy the sights. It was a great day. I brought along lunch and the place had an ice chest we could use free of charge which came in handy. Since it was so hot my insulated bag only kept ice frozen for so long. Being out on the coastal waterway and cruising under the bridges was definitely a different view of the island than just driving on it. If you're into boating like we are, give this place a try. Close to all the hotels, just behind super scoops. The gentleman who works there is friendly and very informative. FYI-they also rent out bikes.

Stopped in on a whim on a walk back from breakfast. Found the rates to be fair so we booked a boat for the afternoon. Rented a larger boat and glad we did, because once on the intercoastal the larger craft was better sized for the water. The boat ran great had plenty of power and was stable. The instructions we received pre-trip really helped us to avoid trouble and make the excusion more enjoyable. Just an all around fun experience! Highly recommended!!! Again, listen to the pre-trip instructions.

This was the third time we're rented from Treasure Isle Boat Rentals in the past 5 years. Once again, had a great time. Service was excellent, prices very reasonable. It was a great day. Will definitely go back. It's much easier than owning, and there is a great selection of boats. We've rented from the small runabout to the family pontoon boat. Boats were always clean and well maintained. Thank you Treasure Isle Boat Rentals.

If you are looking to rent a boat look no further! Treasure isle is the place! Top notch boats, clean, beautiful, and easy to navigate ! The prices were very reasonable and the owner took us on a guided tour before we took off on our own. We stopped at a beach and cruised around Dolphin watching! What a perfect day made possible by the perfect boat rental!

Stopped by in Treasure Island right before our Disney trip. Jetskiing was one of the things on our to do list and found this place. The guy who runs this place was really funny and had great stories to tell.Only two jetskis were available at the time and there were four of us, we decided not to ride with two on each jetski. We didn't want to stay out too long since my mom was watching 4 kids at the hotel, so the guy let us split the hour long session. I was a little disappointed that he does not let you take the jetskis nor the boats out on the ocean, only in the marina. I don't think it really would have mattered since we weren't out there for long though. The owner was very informative and just an overall great guy.

Rented a deck boat from them on our vacation. Steve was very helpful and took the time to go over everything with us to ensure we would have a safe and enjoyable boat rental. His advice led to our son catching his first fish ever. In fact he caught 4 within 30 minutes. On the way out to the narrows we saw several pods of dolphins. They swam right along the side of our boat. We had no issues with the boat and would definitely rent from them again.

Great experience. By far, the most reasonable rentals. Great support and information on the boat and navigation. Boat a little worn but we didn't mind. We know we were trading reasonable cost against a brand new boat. Staff super helpful and friendly. Rental location was great and free parking. Make sure you reserve. Day we went all boats were booked. Gas was a very fair price. Just as an FYI they are only for use in the inter coastal waterway. No gulf of Mexico ! Fine by me. We were occupied for 4 hrs. Saw plenty of dolphins. Was highlight of out trip.

Rented a nice boat. The guy who checked us out was very knowledgeable and friendly, said he had 8 years experience, and seemed like he'd been doing it awhile. Gret time saw dolphins which the kids loved...highly recommend.

Excellent service from start to finish. Guys took reservation first about 10am for noon outing. Very professional. Arrived at facility at noon and on water by 12:30. Great afternoon. No hassles. Boat was very serviceable and Mark was very helpful with "rules of the waves". Will happily return on my next visit. Thanks!!!

We rented 2 SeaDoos (wave runners), great personal service and a lot of fun. We saw dolphins and had a blast. There is a map on board and with a little instruction about navigating and safety you are on your way! I love giving my business to local merchants and they were the cheapest for walk up rates. Good job Dolphin Marine Rentals!!!

Rented the bow rider for a Father's Day of fun. We had a great time, the staff very nice, the boat was good condition. Thought it was a decent value for the money, heck Disney is almost $200 for two adults, and you stand in line all day. We are locals and will definitely recommend this business to other locals and visitors. Hope to return again soon.
