Best place to rent scooters or an
electric car. We tried both (since we wanted to
have a go w/o renting a car for our vacation) and really enjoyed it.
My lady had
never ridden a scooter in her life. They gave her some quick
instruction and we
were on our way. As she got more comfortable I could see her smile
growing in
my mirrors and it was worth every penny. If you are looking for an
electric car
they have a deal/coupon on their website for buy two hours and get
the third free.

If you need to rent
an electric car this is the place to do it. These people are
great!!
We would highly
recommend them to anyone the service was awesome and the staff
was great....don't
hesitate to rent from them. We had a group of 10 had 2 cars -
in
and out in minutes.
Greatest experience we have ever had in Key West

We rent scooters from Robin at
Tropical EVERY YEAR when we come to KW
for the Powerboat races. This is the
BEST COMPANY to get your scooters from!!!
Thanks Robin and crew for always
taking care of our large group from Maryland!
Looking forward to seeing you again
this November! :)

I
rent scooters every time I go to Key West. This was my first time from
Tropical.
Rates were equal to other places, but a block from where I was
staying. So the location was perfect!
My friend had never been on a scooter and was very nervous. I drove the
course first just to show
her it wasn't hard. (I was scared the first
time, too). She didn't hear part of the initial instructions
that he told
me and didn't think to repeat them for her. So she was wobbly at first.
She went
around once and was not bad, but not great either. So he
had her go around again. She did better the
second time and we were off.
My only complaint was that one of the mirrors on my scooter was loose and the
seat compartment
was not happy about opening. I probably should have gone
back for a replacement. My own fault.
By the end of the weekend, my
friend loved it so much that she didn't want to return her scooter and
wanted to
buy one once she got home!

Tropical Rent A Car is the best! Robert isn't bad, either! Have a
question about the environment,
the history or anything else Key West and he more than likely
knows the answer. You might not
be totally convinced with that grin and the twinkle in his
eye, but look it up!!! Tropical Rent A Car
should be the first stop in your Key West experience!

My
partner and I just happened to be staying right across the street from Tropical
Bicycle & Scooter Rentals
and noticed the amount of people renting from
here, so we gave them a shot. The staff were awesome and
very easy going. We've
rented scooters before in Hawaii, so no lessons were needed. We did have to ride
around the lot to show the clerk that we knew how to ride though. The scooters
were in great condition and a
blast to ride. Key West is small, so scooters are
great way to get around. You don't even have to fill up the
gas before you bring them
back. $25 from
9am-5pm was well
worth it in my books! They also rent bicycles
and electric cars if you want something more environmentally friendly.

Has
anyone rented an electric car in KW for the day? Is it worth the it? I have
been searching on line,
they all seem to be around the same price. But the cheapest I found was
Tropical Rentals on Duval St.

I
frigging loved this place. The staff was a little gruff but they
were still helpful and patient,
and the scooters were clean and in good
condition. I've been to Key West for vacation 7 times, but
this was the first
time I've rented a scooter (I wanted to every visit, so
this was a dream come true!).
We did a little shopping around and
ultimately went with this place for several reasons.
First, there was no way I was going to ride a scooter on the highway part of US
1 my first time,
where some of the rental locations are located. The
location of Tropical Rentals is great because
depending on your comfort level
you can either start on the hustle and bustle of Duval St or you can
take the
side roads and get your bearings. I also wanted to rent a Honda
Metropolitan because I
wanted good aesthetics. I got a nice lime green one
and my boyfriend got a brand new navy blue
one that they'd only had for about 2
weeks (apparently someone ran its predecessor off a dock
while trying to take a
picture... don't do that).
Second, we tried another place first but the guy working there completely
freaked me out, saying
it wasn't a good idea to ride scooters in Key West and it
was too dangerous, but he'd rent them to
us if we really wanted. If
someone tells you this and you want to try scooters, don't listen. There's
not a better place in the Keys to ride scooters than Key West... everywhere else
is nothing but highways
and bumpy/gravely side roads. The guy working at
Tropical Rentals gave us a quick instruction of how
to ride and watched us
on their practice course. I wobbled a little around the curves but he said
I was
fine for the road and after zooming around Key West all evening we tried
the practice course again just
for kicks and I did much better... so don't worry
if you're a little wobbly at first.
Finally, the price. We decided to walk all the way down from the top of
Duval to rent from this place. We
ended up being pleasantly surprised with
the total cost of $32.50 for their twilight rental, which gave us
the scooters
from around 5pm to 10am (I'm not sure what time the twilight rental starts
exactly, but make
sure you show up before 5pm because that's when they close).
They had similar rental prices for other time
frames as well, and were a
much better deal than the $45 for 4 hours we kept seeing other places.

This is by far the best place to rent transportation when visiting Key West.
The best prices and excellent courteous service.
The manager Robin will make your visit a memorable one.

I
rented your ford think a couple of months ago, I really enjoyed it so
much that
I purhcased one when I got home in NY. I was just wondering if you
can
help me, the battery pack needs to be changed and I just thought maybe you
can
direct me to the proper place to order replacement battery? I will
definitely rent them again when I head down to Fl this year.
Thanks, Will

We
rented two beach bikes from Tropical Rental to ride through Key
West. We enjoyed
our first day so much we extended our rental for 2 more
days. The only way to
get around in Key West - no looking for the expensive
parking spots. Tropical
bikes were in excellent condition, the staff
courteous and easily accommodated
our request to extend our rental.

I
always had good luck with Tropical rentals on Duval and have
rented from them
numerous times. A 9am-5pm rental was about
$25+tax for a honda metro. Or rent
after 3pm for their sunset deal and
return the next day at 10am for around
$30+tax.
(Oct 31, 2010 - still the same rate)

We
were just there last month and my son rented from Tropical Rentals.
They were
very reasonable. A single scooter was something like $25 for 24 hours.
(weekdays) I don't know the double prices, but I would check with them. Hope
this helps.
