I only rate this average as it wasn't what I expected. The staff here was very friendly and helpful. My boyfriend and I rented a surrey which is the double seated bike that looks similar to a golf cart but it isn't motorized. We thought it would be romantic and fairly easy. Boy this was a bit of a workout.... More

I'm very tall (6'5"), and they had a bike to fit me! we returned one hour after my wife's bike had lost a chain (I fixed it and needed to clean the grease off my hands) they took the time to explain to her what may have happened to throw the chain while I cleaned up. The rest of the... More

We rented bicycles and beach chairs from Billy's during our visit to Sanibel. I did the reservation online and saved 5% off the total. They were delivered to the home we were staying at with no problems. We didn't rent helmets as we brought our own. The bicycles were the standard cruiser type with a basket on the front. They...

What a blast!! We loved the Segway ride. John, our instructor and guide was fantastic. A few minutes of training in the parking lot and we felt competent, a few more minutes down the bike path and we felt like pros. $60/per person (also check local ads for 10% coupon) was a value for the fun and experience.

My wife and I rented bikes on two different occasions during the week we recently spent on Sanibel Island. As my daughter wasnt quite ready to ride solo, we added the "wee-hoo" to the back of my bike. Sort of a tow behind attachment so she could "ride along". Positives - Staff was very friendly and quick to take care... More

They are always prompt and have bikes at your condo last minute. This year they forgot two helmets and sized one bike wrong. We made due.

We originally rented two bikes from Billy's and when we arrived at our condo we found out they had two for tenets use. I had already paid for our two bikes but they were not delivered yet, I called Billy's and explained the situation and they returned the charges back to our card without hesitation... That's how you run a... More

Renting bikes was easy and quick. A good way to get some exercise in between all the eating I tend to do on Sanibel. Paths cover most of the island and are flat as can be.

Hints: you can pick out your rental bike of choice at Billy's OR you can have your bike(s) delivered and picked up for a onetime $10 fee. You can SAVE 5 % by ordering your bicycles online at Billysrentals.com . For Sanibel , anything from a 1 speed to 7 speed is appropriate, the land is FLAT. Excellent off street... More
