Until last year in Navarre, we would rent scooters and travel to Pensacola for lunch and shopping…read moreat the pier. It was the nicest view driving through the sand dunes via the scenic route. We could see the ocean and feel the salty air hit our cheeks and sometimes tangle our hair but it was always something my family and I looked forward to. We met Sage and her family maybe four years ago. I was so impressed to learn that Sage was only a teenager when she founded her company. Her family supported her idea of supplying Navarre with bikes to maneuver around the quaint town. And it grew beyond bikes. Our time in Navarre was always with Sage Paddles on the itinerary after discovering how peaceful and memorable scooting around town afforded our family. We wanted to support Sage and her sweet family especially after we learned of her story. Sadly, as of last year they no longer have scooters available. We never quite got to the bottom of why but we have cherished the memories this small family owned company helped us create. And we fully recommend you heading on over there to book your paddle board and transportation needs. Fun fact: the movie Jaws was filmed in this small beach town.

Brady is an exceptional manager who leads a group of hardworking, friendly, and professional employees. Every morning our chairs and umbrella were set up and waiting for us, making our beach days completely effortless and relaxing. Brady goes above and beyond to ensure every guest has a wonderful experience, and his leadership is reflected in the outstanding service his team provides. Everyone was welcoming, dependable, and genuinely cared about making our family vacation special. If you're planning a trip to Navarre Beach, I can't recommend La Dolce Vita enough. Thank you, Brady, and your entire team, for helping create such wonderful memories for our family. We look forward to seeing you again on our next visit!

We stayed at the SpringHill Suites on Navarre Beach where LDV offers beach chairs & umbrellas for…read morerental. We rented chairs Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday while there. Based on our 3 day experience, you may anticipate the LDV staff being super friendly until you pay them the $70 rental fee and then they will ignore you for the rest of the day. They won't assist with the chairs, they won't move the umbrellas to reposition the shade, etc. Nada - they just hang out near the board walk collecting rental fees. While I've experienced better customer service, that's not what upset me. Friday afternoon about 2pm, an LDV employee walked up from behind the chairs and without a word of warning grabbed my backpack and hat, then announced that he was closing the umbrella "because the umbrella was flapping in the breeze." When he grabbed my bag, I protested and told him to let go of my bag. He did but then got all indignant and mouthy... kept telling me that he wasn't trying to steal my bag, to "calm down", etc. Not sure why in the world he thought it would be appropriate to walk up and grab a strangers belongings but it was rude and entitled. I don't care if a storm was approaching... don't care if the wind was picking up... you could have taken 15 seconds to be a decent human being and just say "Hey, we need to fold up the umbrellas" and I would have been totally fine picking up my bag and leaving. Keep your hands off my property, Dude. Total buzz kill for an otherwise great day at the beach.

SUMMARY: Excellent equipment, friendly staff, prime Navarre…read moreBeach location. We rented 3 seadoo's for 4 people on a perfect Monday afternoon. 1 seadoo was shared by me and a 13 year old, the other two by 2 adults (18 and 40ish :) The seadoo's were fast, comfortable and easy to use. The staff fully explained all of the ins and outs. The two guys manning the hut were super friendly and helpful. We paid $90 per hour for each seadoo. We choose to buy the $5 insurance per vehicle. LOCATION: Located conveniently in the bay on the right just before crossing into the Navarre Beach island. There's not a lot of intercoastal waterway traffic to get in your way.. One nice benefit is the Sailors Grille and Juan Pagoda's right next door. After our ride we had a nice afternoon of food and drinks while enjoying views of the bay and people playing volleyball. If you want bar food, Juan Pagoda's ToGo bites can be purchased and enjoyed on the beach area (food looked good, we didn't buy anything) If there's one negative I'd say it's the size of the bay available for riding the seadoo's. I mean it's a big area for sure, but some riders may find it limiting. OTHER: You can rent kayak's, pontoon boats and other stuff. See their website for more info. RATING NOTES 5: should be the best experience you could've possibly had for that type of business. 3 or 4: this is certainly not a negative. Just means average to above average. 2: basically denotes a below average experience. 1: on the flipside this way over used rating should be reserved basically if someone died (so to speak), bug in food, etc. Sorry big baby millennials, if your food takes five minutes too long that's not a one star review.

We purchased the insurance for $5 extra to cover any issues for a maximum charge possible of $250 but charged us $267.50 now they claim "coincidentally" there were damages to the propeller we sucked up rocks when we weren't even on the beach. Told us it doesn't matter what you do we will still charge your card. We canceled our card and our bank also stated they had set up a reoccurring payment every month for $267.50. A claim has been filed with the BBB and several reviews posted. Do not trust this company they took advantage of a local disabled veteran.
