Rented a boat in Anna Maria Island during the 4th of July weekend. The boat 23, StarCraft SVX 231 was perfect for 12 passengers and it was in great shape. The communication with Meg was great and Martin was very helpful with the instructions. I recommend them for your next boat rental in AMI.

Boat rental was seamless and made for the perfect day! They offered great suggestions on where to go and made sure we were all ready with what we needed! Communication was fast & friendly. I’ll definitely use them again!

The boat was as advertised. Perfect for a day on the water and fishing. Had a great time anchoring up at a sandbar to cool off.Martin was extremely helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!

Meg and the Sunshine Living boat rental were great from the beginning to end of the process. I had tons of questions and she answered all of them patiently. The boat pick up and drop off was very chill and added to the positive experience. We will definitely be back and rent from them.

The boat was super punctual and super clean. The boats are in perfect condition. 100% recommended.

Sunshine Living Boat Rental earns every one of these five stars! This husband and wife team runs a tight, professional operation while keeping everything warm and welcoming. From our first inquiry to the moment we returned the boat, communication was prompt and clear, and they were wonderfully flexible to work with. On the water and off, they made the whole experience seamless and enjoyable. It’s the kind of locally run business you want to support — and the kind you’ll keep coming back to. Highly recommend!

Best experience ever boat was better than expected and ran very good great company to work with

Fantastic experience! Martin was awesome, very friendly and knowledgeable. He goes over everything beforehand, especially for those with little experience. The boat was exactly what we needed for my family of 12 and we had no issues at all. I highly recommend Sunshine. Two thumbs up! 👍🏻👍🏻

4th time renting, always on time boat is clean and always willing to answer questions. We enjoyed the sandbars and boating on our trip to Florida is a must
