This excellent review is based on the service provided by the gentleman who helped us with our scooter on Mother's Day. The lady at the window wasn't nasty but she wasn't very welcoming either. The gentleman who helped us is the reason that we will come back. He went over the scooter with us, and he was there to check... More

Highest recommendations from both of us! Sanibel is nearly flat - a great place to learn to use a Segway in preparation for similar tours in other areas; it's also rich with history and subtropical/tropical life! My husband and I gave each other the Sanibel Segway Tour for our anniversary - great choice! Michael was our trainer and guide -... More

Bikes were delivered to our condo car port before we arrived. Billy happened to be stopping by when we needed air for our baby jog stroller that we rented from someone else. He filled the air for us at our rental place (ocean's reach) and double checked to make sure our bikes were what we needed. As a business owner,... More

We rode about 15 miles a day on bikes and we're not bike riders. It was about 90 degrees and we never felt that hot with a nice ocean breeze....it was great! It's very safe. There's bike path's allover the island. My Son and friend rented mopeds (scooters) a couple of times (17 yrs old) and they had a blast.... More

This is our second year renting bikes for one week through Billy's. They deliver them right to your hotel/condo. If your kids are between 2-6 you must rent the WeeHoos. Our kids loved them and were more comfortable compared to the Chariots or bike seats. We met Billy himself and he told us he has exclusive rights for the area.... More

Had several bike issues while staying at Sanibel. I couldn't believe how well treated I was by the service people at Billys. While my repairs weren't complicated the did most of them while I waited. This on a busy resort island. They were professional and the fees we very reasonable. Cant say enough good things about them. More

I have been going to Sanibel every year for a very long time and always get bikes at Billy's. The service is great, and the bikes are in good conditions. My bike was great and so was everyone in my family. We normally rent for an hour, but this trip we rented for one week. Billy's has become a family... More

I have rented a bike from Billy's Rentals for ten days every year since 2001. I have always found them very accommodating and quick to rectify any problems (only had two). Billy especially is very knowledgeable and prices are very reasonable. Jeff Foster Nashua, NH More
