With all of our weekly rental prices, our 6 and 7 day rental prices are the same, therefore 7th day is free on all items! To meet customer expectations, this method of selecting your vacation check in and check out date as rental dates is not required, but recommended!

We deliver items 7 days a week and guarantee all deliveries by 6pm Sunday – Friday and by 8pm on Saturday. Orders placed for a single, 24-hour rental will be time-stamped upon delivery and will be picked up at the same time or later, on the following day. If you are not going to be there before your gear arrives, we can arrange a special place to store the gear on or in the rental property.

CAN I PICK MY ITEMS UP?
Yes! You can pick up most bike and beach rentals at a storefront. However, all baby items will need to be delivered for sanitary purposes.

No, we deliver all of your gear, including back-pack beach chairs and umbrellas, to the front door of your home or condo.

You can also use your gear when you want, not restricted to the strict beach service company hours of operation!
