boat hire in Minori · Mirage — 750 (2015)

We are really glad we booked Filippo’s boat. We had a great day exploring the Amalfi Coast. The boat was clean, comfortable and the greeting and explanation was good too. Swimming from the boat was great fun and easy to get back onboard with the ladder. A great experience. Thanks very much Filippo and team.

My wife and I had an amazing day on the water. We came from amalfi on the ferry to pick the boat up and were a few minutes late but it was no problem. They pick you up from the pier and show you the boat then you’re on your way. We went and spent the day in Positano anchored. The boat has plenty of space and was very easy to drive. On our return the owners met us in front of the pier and brought us the rest of the way in. Very easy and efficient process and it was the highlight of our trip.

Great experience!

Great Boat! It was my first time Driving a boat, the scenery was just breathtaking. If you’re planning on visiting The Amalfi Coast, you should 100% rent a boat. It was easy to drive and Navigate through the Sea.

Everything was wonderful. The boat is very easy to drive.

The boat was great, definitely one of the highlights of the trip. We sailed to Praiano, Positano and back. It only cost €40 to refuel. Communication could have been a slight bit better with using things like the anchor. Overall it was great and I highly recommend.

Perfect Boat! Perfect Service!

The communication on how to operate boat was not clear and also they didn't show how to manually put anchor in place and also the guy didn't show where the life jacket is placed. The boat was good and we had pleasant experience but they could work a bit on explaining how boat works.

Awesome experience with this boat hire, cruising the up around the Amalfi coast and around Capri. Definitely get a full day hire, you won’t regret it. The boat was nice complete with sound system, usb charger, water-tight compartments and plenty of lounging space. Fuel was approx. 2€ per litre from the marina in Amalfi or the same from the hire company in Minori - we used 50L of fuel for the whole day which seems reasonable.

Awesome boat to rent. My girlfriend and I took it to Capri and had a wonderful day. Highly recommend.

Everything was fine except that the operator doesn’t supply an appropriately sized anchor. When tried anchoring without hardly any wind or current we we’re immediately dragging. This is extremely unsafe for a notice boater and when I explained to the operator upon return they said “we told you it’s better to use a mooring”. Unfortunately we weren’t able to visit some beaches that we had planned on visiting. A bit of a bummer.

Perfect boat to spend the day on the water. We drove from Minori to Capri and back and had to pay about 100€ for gas. Totally worth it to rent a boat at this beautiful coast of Amalfi.

I recommend to do it, very nice experience

My recommendation is to rent from Fillipo. He has a great service and he has many boats. The town of Minori is very easy to access and is within 10 minutes of Ravello, Maiori, Amalfi, and Atrani. I can’t say enough about the value of this experience. We drive to Capri and then Positano and back. With time to spare and Gas only costing 70 Euro. This is the best!!

Everything was just as expected. The team met all of our expectations. Thank you for an amazing experience!!!!

Our experience was great, we got everything was promised with perfect service and communication from support stuff.

We rented the boat for a full day and had a great time. Neither of us had our boat license and we had no problem driving. The boat goes quite fast and we had no problem going all along the coast. Would highly recommend! The Bluetooth speaker was also great

We had an incredible day!! Filippo and his crew were extremely accommodating and the boat was great! We drove to positano and back, including a stop for lunch at where we were able to dock our boat and they took us to shore. The whole trek only used 1/4 tank of gas. We will certainly be renting from Filippo again!

We had a great day out! I would highly recommend this boat as it had everything we needed for the two of us. We could have comfortably fit 4 people on the boat. It had a stereo to connect your phone for music and a sunbathing area at the front with cushions. As for fuel we went from Minori to Positano, docked for 2 hours at Positano (20 euro charge) and from there went halfway to Capri and back to Minori. We used just a little more than 1/4 tank of fuel which we we’re charged 40 euro when we returned. I would definitely recommend Filippo and his boat as it was a fantastic experience and I would book with him again.

The best word I could use to describe this experience is freedom. The transition of the boat pickup and tutorial of the boat use was seamless. We had the boat the entire day from 9am-5pm to go and do whatever we wanted. We left the Minori dock and went straight to Capri. Navigating the coastline was very easy, especially with the map of all the city checkpoints that was provided upon check in. Every staff member was super friendly, giving assistance to dock the boat at pickup and drop off. Finding the gas station in Amalfi to fill up before drop-off was super easy costing around 76 euro. This was after the trip to Capri and exploring the coastline from Positano all the to Minori. I would highly recommend this boat rental company and would suggest using the Click and Boat app to make a reservation ahead of time. The cost of booking his experience was 100% well worth it! We had an unforgettable time seeing all the breathtaking views of the coastline from the ocean. Having the freedom to explore was priceless for us!

Great host, great boat. Would definitely recommend!

Great from start to finish - we went to Positano and back with a couple of swimming stops along the way. Would definitely recommend

Very fast delivery of the boat, good communication with owner. The boat was perfect for a family of 4 for a lovely day spent on the amalfi coast. We payed 80 Euro for the fuel (about half the tank). We went to the dolphin private island along the coast with several snorkeling stops. Highly recommend !

Fantastic experience, ‘must do’ on Amalfi coast

The process from the time we rented, to checking in, to the time of boat lessons and turning in the boat was all very smooth. Please be aware of current fuel charges as a half of a tank ran us about 100 Euros. This is taken care of at the end of the trip and is paid by cash only. We had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our boat trip. We captained our own boat and all went very well. The boat was a perfect size for us (2) and could have easily accommodated 3 more. We enjoyed times of shade as well as sun. The fuel tank took us from Minori to all the way around Capri and back to Minori. We easily had enough fuel to go further if we had wanted. 9:00-5:00 was the perfect amount of time as well. There is no doubt we would do this again!!!

Excellent service - Fillipo advised us to change the day of our rental due to the weather conditions free of charge. He also kept our safety as a top priority and offered to give a full refund. The boat was fantastic with a great stereo system. We travelled from Minori to Positano and back - the fuel cost was €40. Overall great service and would highly recommend

Thank you so much for a wonderful day on the water! The boat was excellent- it was in like new shape, the motor ran perfectly and started with the first click of the key every time. We had an amazing day exploring the coast from Maiori to Positano and back. At your suggestion, we went out to the 3 private islands 3 km or so off the coast of Positano. We stopped for a swim and the water was the most spectacular blue. Thank you for an amazing day on the water!! Pat & Kate Pasadena, CA USA

The Boat was fine. A little bit to heavy for the 40PS Motor. But enough to drive to Capri and back. Unfortunately the Boat ladder was damaged so we decided not to use them.

The boat was conform with the description, perfect for sailers without boat license! However, one of Filippo's employees was beyond rude with us, even insulting us in Italian thinking we wouldn't understand. An important lack of communication between Filippo's team members, telling us to refill the carburant deposit in two different ways: one told us to do it in Amalfi, the other one not to worry as he will kindly come with us once we arrived at Minori back from our sail. This led us to arrive to Minori and being charged 35€ for the carburant that we didn't get to see, nor the bill for the "so called" carburant price. At the end, we paid 25€ after an "intense negotiation" and without a bill. So, for future customers, refill your carburant in Amalfi by yourself!!

Excellent experience. Only issue was the anchor which I don't believe actually belonged to the boat we had rented because it was not heavy enough to anchor us. It did create a little bit of inconvenience because we were not able to station the boat for long as it would drift away. Other than that, a very memorable time.

Great Trip! The boat is great, easy to navigate. Filippo and his team are nice and remain available. The coast is amazing by boat. I recommend!

Fantastic boat, great experience and Filippo and his team are very friendly! Would recommend to go here for everyone. Enjoy!!!!

The boat is great, good stereo and it develops good speed on the water despite is a 40 hp engine. Shower was working good. Communication is difficult before the trip. For any question that you have prior the trip forget about it and just go to minori because he will not answer.

Very nice boat and well priced. One of the must things you have to do whilst in Amalfi

Friendly, clear explanation, good boat!

We had a great time cruising along the Amalfi Coast. We found some secluded beaches along the way. A nice break from the crowd. Would recommend Filippo and his crew.

Lovely boat rental wtih convenient information and service to explore the Amalfi Coast! Would definitely recommend.

Everything is excellent!!! They serve you very well and are very pleasant. I recommend their boats, they are large, comfortable, very well maintained and modern. I would not hesitate to rent with them again. They respond very well to the questions asked and in a timely manner. I do recommend that they improve the anchor so that we can anchor more quickly and easily since we could not use it because they said it was very fragile. I also recommend that before leaving you ask about the buoys that you can use so that the day on the boat is easy and comfortable for you.

Excellent day

It was a great day!

Great

All perfect. Thanks for this perfect day.

Very well organized. Fuel is not included and you have to refuel before returning which can be a bit tricky in terms of maneuvers for a boat without a license, especially since the staff at the Amalfi port pump are not very friendly. and helping. Not counting on the boat's shower and radio not working not really a problem personally. Also did not understand why we could not anchor. Forced to stop on a buoy to catch without a gaffe not provided. Would also be nice to provide a more detailed plan with landmarks and cool spots to see on the coast up to Sorrento.

Excellent. We came in high season and the price did not seem so exaggerated considering the context. Although minori seems far away, it is ideal for navigating the entire coast. We went to positano after capri and back to positano again with less than 90 euros of fuel. The boat is in perfect condition and looks like the photos. Ideal for 4 people

Very happy with the boat. Very easy to handle. We arrived later than indicated and there was no problem. We spent almost half a deposit and paid €60.

The boat was very good and the area beautiful. Very nice day. On the other hand, the staff are not friendly, especially a person bordering on arrogance. Pity! Very few explanations you have to fend for yourself to understand, for example, where the gas tank is! Arrival of the boat 30 minutes late in the morning with very approximate explanations on the meeting point. No explanation on the sound system on board either. Also the shower worked 5 seconds or more water. In short, for the price very far from being up to par!

The boat was clean and in good repair and suited our needs. However, the service is not up to par: I tried to contact the manager the day before to ask for information and I have not received any response. Then in giving us the directions for the day, they a little "scared" us into using the anchor, telling us that 8 out of 10 boats are stranded and forced to pay the additional cost to replace the anchor (neither we nor the boats we have met in the day we had no problem). Finally, the cost of petrol, in my opinion is very high - 35 euros per notch - which we were asked to pay only in cash, despite having the Pos available. In short, the boat is ok and for a day it's fine, but there is certainly room for improvement.

Very happy with the service offered by Filippo: good reception, clear explanations for handling, boat compliant and well maintained. On the other hand, it lacked the GPS noted in equipment (but not especially useful) and the rope of the anchor was all entangled. Very good value for money !

I booked a boat with "GPS" equipment, unfortunately this one was not equipped with GPS or sounder. Once on site I was also told that we could not use the shade sail because of the wind (not only this day, but all year on the coast, according to the renter). In addition, the renter strongly insisted that we do not use the ink (how to park without ink, especially when there is wind ?!). Small surprise at the end of the day: it takes 15 minutes more, to leave with the lessor refuel gasoline Amalfi). Overall boat OK, ease of handling and access, but equipment not exploitable.

Completely in order at all levels.
