This company was amazing! The customer service is exactly what I look for on vacation. I made a booking online but needed to change the start time. A simple call took care of it. When we got there they had more than enough scooters and golfcarts for everyone. We were up and running in no time. We attempted to do the scooters but my GF was just too silly acting and it made us nervous so we switched to the golfcarts. They didn't charge us anything additional even though it cost more, and it was a very easy process. Not to mention they gave us a full breakdown and walkthrough of what we needed to do to be safe. I can't recommend this company enough! Thank you. -MrBucketlist read more

Picked us up at the port and drove us to their location for the golf cart as my boyfriend had a knee replacement recently. Pick up was quick and easy and so was the cart rental process. Cart was clean and had no issues. Would definitely use on another trip to Key West. read more

These are the most patient and respectful and friendly people in business. They worked with my husband and I as we learned to ride the scooters. I would highly recommend. read more

I've rented from Pirate Scooters four or five times now, and they've been amazing every time. Most recently, I rented from them to celebrate my father's 70th birthday, and the experience was just as fantastic as ever. The scooters are top-notch--practically brand new and run flawlessly. What really sets Pirate Scooters apart is their incredible customer service. The staff are super friendly, always ready to help, and genuinely care about making sure you have a great experience. Plus, the name is spot-on--some of the guys working there look like real pirates, which adds to the charm! Their location is perfect, right in the heart of the action in Key West, making it super convenient to pick up and drop off. Getting around on a scooter transforms your trip--zipping through the island, exploring every corner, and soaking in the sights becomes so much more fun and hassle-free. If you're visiting the Keys, I can't recommend Pirate Scooters enough. They'll make your trip unforgettable! read more

Extremely good customer service. David really took care of the issues caused by me. Note: the 2-wheel 2-stroke scooters and golf carts. We were expecting an accessibility scooter. But I know how to ride and used a scooter. I would definitely use their service again. read more

This was the second year we rented from these guys. They are so nice and will bend over backwards to make sure that you are happy. We rented scooters for the boys and a gas golf cart for my wife and I. The scooters were brand new and we did not have any issues. You can go back and they fill them up for no additional cost. We will rent from them every year. read more

Pirate Scooter Rentals - Scooter Rentals Near Me - Key West, Florida

Awesome from pick up at airport, 3 days of scooting around, to being dropped off at airport. Shawn and Dozer were great, thanks guys.

These guys ROCK----- pricing totally fair, service outstanding and scooter ran great!!! Thank you!

Great service, great little scooter. Just good people all the way around. Even took us back to the airport. Thanks Sean! You da man

Great people working there, good prices and excellent location. The carts were clean and in good shape. Highly recommended!

The ongoing pandemic has definitely taken a toll on a lot of businesses and public places since a consumer's mindset to buy anything outside of essentials or to visit a public place like a park or beach, has crippled down significantly. Now by living with what has become the new normal, it is commendable on how these businesses and public places continue to remain open and cater to the general public by following the safety standards. It is now all the more important that we as customers, support these heroes during these dark hours to mankind. Not every time you would wish "why can't I rate beyond a 5 star?" Well, this is one such business. Their scooters that drive around the 2*2 square miles of Key west is their first advertisement. We were only driving around in our car when we spotted a lot of scooters and that enticed us to try out one of those scooters. We were at our hotel and called them on a fine morning to check if they had pickup to their place and Viola, they did! We had Joe who picked us up in a van and drove us to their place for a scooter pickup. He was a man who knew the place and as we asked him more questions on what to see, where to park, when to visit, he had answers for them all, like a Wikipedia of Key West. He in fact took some detours to show the places that he had mentioned, before getting to Pirates. Our first impression of this place was spot on, right away. The pricing is super nominal and the checkout process was a breeze. We had a guy walk us through the mechanics of the scooter, made us do a quick trial ride and then let us go our ways. Riding a scooter in Keys is the best fun thing to do to traverse through the busy traffic and to find easier parking spots than when you drive a car. Our epic day was almost ruined when we thought we lost our scooter's keys at the Higgs beach and Sean was our savior who turned up in less than 10 minutes with a duplicate and later we returned the scooter too. To our luck, we never lost the key and returned it promptly, the next day to them. Hands down they have one of the best customer services we have experienced and this place is a must try if you are looking to rent scooters/golf carts at the Keys! read more

My husband and I had a fantastic experience renting a dual-seater scooter at Pirate Scooter Rentals. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We had ridden scooters before, but not a ton, and their instructions were super helpful. They gave tips for navigating the island, including a scenic drive along the southern coast. The pricing is budget-friendly, even for last minute extensions. Would definitely rent from them again! read more

Best place on the island to rent scooters and golf carts. Their customer service is great Their prices are consistent with no "bait and switch" when you arrive. All their employees we're always helpful, informative and happy. I will rent from them every year. We dropped our scooters of at the end of our stay and they took us to the airport:) they will also pick you up when you read more

SUPER NICE PEOPLE. We rented a scooter during a cruise stop out of Ft Lauderdale to revisit places all over the island we had been before. Being a guy who went from a mini-bike at 12 to a 1962 250cc Harley street/trail at 14 to a 1963 Hog at 18 to a 1984 Honda Nighthawk 700SC ... um, "quite a few years ago". I was all smiles when they asked me to take a turn around the block before letting Patti get on the back. An hour later I was calling them to ask why I couldn't start it ... to have them politely direct my attention to the kill switch that they had pointed out to me when they first went over the scooter with me. I figured I had accidently tripped it while putting the scooter up on its stand. So we had a lovely ride all over the island and upon return I had Patti get off at the curb before tooling into their back lot and asking "where do you want this?". I got off, and in putting the stand down with my right foot for balance and leverage, trapped my left sandal under the stand and ended up with the scooter on top of me. I'm sure I came off looking like the idiot of the week, but these guys had that almost "Aussie-like" demeanor of "no problem mate, it happens here all the time". We thought 50 bucks for three hours was worth every penny to get away from the hordes of tourists and we can testify that you cannot rent from nicer people. read more

Pirate Scooter Rentals - Scooter Rentals Near Me - Key West, Florida

highly recommend this place! we rented a scooter for 5 days when we were in key west. Sean was friendly and super helpful. he gave us recommendations for places to dine and how to cruise around the island. never had an issue with the scooter, extended a day after the original four day rental and it was not an issue. when my husband returned the scotter, Sean used their van and brought him back to our hotel, picked up myself and the luggage and took us to the airport. The service was beyond! We won't rent scooters from anywhere else ! read more

These guys were great! Quick and effective instruction. New-ish scooters, plenty available in good working order. And we zipped around the whole island. It was awesome! read more

I got off the ship, walked around the area and realized I needed something a little more fun than just hopping on a tour bus. I walked right in front of the rental kiosk, stopped and asked about bike rentals and scooters. The scooter rental seemed pretty reasonable, and the people working there seemed trustworthy. My rental was for 4 hours. I toured the entire island a few times over. I took pictures of beaches that other people on the ship had never seen or heard of. I stopped at all the top tourist spots listed online for Key West. And of course, the ubiquitous photo by the Southernmost Point Buoy. I was also caught in a big downpour that moved in for about 45 minutes. As it poured rain, I parked the scooter and enjoyed a visit to the Hemingway house which was right in front of me. I stopped at the key lime pie shop popularized by Marcus Lemonis from NBC's The Profit. Overall, a great experience. I highly recommend and would definitely do it all over again. Thank you PSR! read more

Fantastic, friendly and efficient service! We were in the Green Parrot and asked a few locals about a Golf Cart service -- and everyone pointed across the street to Pirate Scooter Service! We originally rented our Cart for seven days but then extended our trip (and rental!) with no trouble! The team is extremely friendly, you can park your cart there instead of paying for street parking and they are really efficient. Regardless of where you rent, download the PASSPORT PARKING App -- it's fantastic! Just enter in your golf cart license plate and park as needed during your trip. If you use the Key West Public Parking (on street), you can pay as you go throughout the day without starting over everytime you park. It's great! read more

I have rented from Pirate Scooter several times, and they are affordable and super easy in-and-out. Having a scooter is an excellent way to get around as you can park them similar to a bike (fyi... you have to pay for parking and treat golf carts like cars). read more

When you're in Key West, one of the things you'll noticed immediately is how many people ride scooters, golf carts, bicycles. I definitely wanted in on the action so I check out many businesses but decided on Pirate Scooter Rental because of the reviews. The location is small and you might pass it if you're doing 26 mph in a 25 mph zone but I did find it with the help of Google Maps. When I got there, I told them what I wanted and they explained the options they had, pros and cons of one-seater vs two-seater scooters. The price I found reasonable and the scooter comes with a full tank of gas. If you run out then you can go back and they'll refill it for free. I took advantage of this and it gave me peace of mind. They do offer free helmets, lessons and insurance if you need it because typically auto insurance doesn't cover scooters. They will put a deposit on your credit card in the event something happens but once you return the scooter, they remove the deposit. Overall, the staff was friendly and helpful. The scooter was in great working condition and I had no problems whatsoever. I also recommend getting a scooter for Key West because parking is a premium and there are places where you can park the scooter free of charge. read more

We had reserved a scooter for a specific time, but got to Pirate Scooter almost 2 hrs early. They had no problem accommodating us and the check out process was fast and easy. After a short test drive to "prove" I could drive, off we went. Their scooters are all practically new (ours had ~1200 miles) and boy can they rip! Scooters are the way to go in Key West as it makes travel, and more importantly PARKIN, a breeze. read more

What sparked the great experience was the customer service! My partner and I were thinking about what we can do in Key West to pass time and we came across Pirate Rentals for their scooters. The workers there were welcoming and described exactly what to expect. They introduced us to riding the scooters. It was a fast transaction and then we were off. Also, we paid $35 each for the 3 hour ride and it was great! We killed 1 hour of time at the Fort Beach and then rest of the 2 hours riding around Key West and exploring read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND paying pirate scooter rentals a visit when your on the island. My husband was in the keys back in March with a friend of his and they rented scooters from them and had a blast. Fast forward to June, him and I traveled to the keys together and he said we have to rent scooters they are soooooo worth it on the island and he was right! The service was great they were friendly and explained how to use the scooter perfectly. It was my first time and I picked it up real fast so don't feel discouraged or afraid to ride one it's simple. They also suggest going for a little practice ride at the near by park and that made me feel more confident with my riding. We payed 50 for all day rental (that's the best deal) we loved it so much we went back the following morning to ask if we could rent it for one more day and they were able to do it without any hesitation. Also we got topped off with FREE GAS before heading out on our adventure. I loved it so much that I'm considering buying one for me to locally travel around. My husband and I will definitely come back to pirate scooter rental whenever we are in the keys! read more

Great group, super friendly. Everything was perfect. Central location, fair rates, and a great running golf cart. Highly recommend!

Had the best time of our vacation when we rented scooters from Pirate (7/23/19). The scooters were in excellent condition, the attendants were awesome very knowledgeable and friendly. We only wish we could've rented the scooters for the whole week that we were here. and we got a veterans discount to boot! Thank you Pirate Scooters we had a blast! The Browns read more

Pirate Scooter Rentals - Island view by scooter! - Scooter Rentals Near Me - Key West, Florida

We had no complaints! They had scooters when others were sold out and the rental process was super easy. I will say if you're looking for a lot of instruction on how to drive a scooter- this isn't the place; the strictly rent scooters, test you, and send you out. The scooters themselves were in great shape and they handle all the gas for you so you don't have to worry about refilling them. Helmet + lock are included. 3 hours was $35 and 6 hours was $40. read more

Simple- Straight Forward and well done - easy to deal with and no BS - Thanks for the Golf Cart - enjoyed it.

What an amazing establishment! Professional, fast and great prices. Very accommodating. A special shout out to Joe. Great guy! Helped us out and went beyond what was required. Highly recommend this business. read more

Look, here's the thing.... These guys have good products in their rentals. But everything else sucks. We came in on a cruise and booked our reservation beforehand. They promised they'd be waiting to pick us up. That didn't happen. So we call them to come get us and they pick us up in one of the golf carts but don't have enough space for the six people they knew they were picking up. So we had to make two trips, which is really annoying when you're on a time crunch. The cart was great, but the horn didn't work (at all). Not sure if that's legal to rent out a cart without a horn because t whatever, time crunch. So we bring the cart back at 5:15 (as we said we would) and say hey we're ready to go back to the cruise ship. We're told "oh sorry we're not doing any more rides today. Ryan should've told you. We stop at 5" Looks at watch. Looks back at guy..... "No. Ryan did not mention that." So we're walking back as I write this to say fuck you guys. The cart was cool but service was awful. Don't bother dealing w this people. They are not reliable. read more

Amazing rental for 4 days. Scooters to rent. Service was awesome. Definitely would only use Pirate Scooter Rental.

Ex and I only had a few hours to kill on my last day in Key West, so we decided to rent a scooter and head down to Smathers Beach and get all bronzey. But we had to stand and wait at the rental counter for about 40 minutes while the woman at the desk tried to sign up the couple that got there about 5 seconds before us. And with 5 hours of rental time coming to over $70 with taxes for a scooter for two? Ouch. You can get a better deal elsewhere. And you can definitely find a rental company with more hustle. read more

Let's see...One of the scooters we rented didn't have a turn signal that worked. My speedometer didn't work and I had to jump start my bike every time. But other than that, it was a nice color and it was very mid looking. These scooter rental stands are a dime a dozen in this area. So do yourself a favor and go to one of the others. read more

Don't get the Rental Insurance. Does not cover what's most likely to happen on your scooter, which is leaving security cable attached to the wheel. I'm sure it's a very common mistake which is why it's the one thing the insurance does not cover and of course, they don't tell you that when you get it. Thought it's very shady and I feel taken advantage of, if it get a rentals insurance, it's to have the peace of mind that I'm insurance in case of a very stupid (and common) mistake. I feel taken advantage of and wish I had not gotten in the insurance, or for that matter wish I hadn't rented from here. I'd go somewhere else. read more

Staying on Key West and walked by this bike rental spot. They had comfortable bicycles and I appreciated that they didn't have their advertising plastered aover the bike! Very friendly service - offered sun lotion to us - and a great lunch spot recommendation. read more

I was surprised to see the reviews so low here. This was one of the funnest things I did in Key West and I highly recommend doing this..and these guys were great...I only wish I could have kept the scooter longer. My wife and I got a couple scooters from these guys and they were super cool. They came and picked us up from the Mallory Square area, got us signed up and we were on our way. Good service Good product Good people working here. So glad I did this. read more

Joe and Zach were super friendly guys. Scooters were nice, reasonably priced, and were really great to have after walking way too much the first day. Definitely recommend! read more

First time renting a scooter and now it will be a must every time! The two guys working at the time were friendly and moved fast but also were happy to answer questions. They make sure you feel confident with controls before you go on your own - they even ask you to go around 1 block and come back and beep so they know you're good. Definitely the best way to zip around and see a few things in a short time. We went to the southernmost point and took pics, then out near the beach, then stopped for a bite, back towards Mallory Sq and a few other shops. You don't need to pay for parking for scooters. So get yourself a parking spot and walk to the scooter place to save the hassle the rest of the day. The scooters were older, but well maintained and ran great. Got up to 25 mph without a hiccup, and no stickers to make you look like a newbie tourist. :) Enjoy! read more

Definitely glad we found Pirate rentals. I prepaid for the 3 hour gas golf cart, and we got there the guys greeted us and were very kind. I asked how much it would be for an extra hour, and they threw it in no charge. Upon arriving back, Anthony drove us back to our hotel, and was very kind and helpful. We will definitely be using Pirate Rentals in the future. Renting a gas powered golf cart is the way to go. So much easier to find parking than a car and the best way to get around town to see the sights. I heard the electric carts weren't as good, they look cool but don't go as fast and can't go as far without needing a charge. We had the golf cart for four hours and the needle was still at full when we returned. Great customer service and great experience all around. read more

Pirate Scooter Rentals is the best organization on Key West. Their scooters are new and well maintained. Most importantly the staff are very friendly and make the whole experience so easy. Next time back, I'll be renting from Pirate Scooters! read more
