Boat rental in Sorrento · Salpa — Soleil 26 (2021)

We could not recommend this experience more to others who are visiting Sorrento. It was easy to book online, and the owner of the boat was very helpful and quick to respond. Michelangelo was our skipper and he was extremely thoughtful, funny and made the trip even better. With his advice, we went around the beautiful Capri and then to Positano, with stops for swims and a delicious lunch in between. Michelangelo really made the day and we had lots of laughs, and made happy memories.

Excellent boat. Great service. Had a great day.

Amazing boat rental in sorrento area, boat is fully equipped and I recommend it to anyone, I used it without a skipper since I have experience and was able to go everywhere, I recommend asking Michelangelo Gargiulo for everything he’s the person in charge of the boat and is very nice and helpful, he helped me with recommendations, reservations and everything I needed for the perfect day with my family.

This was the highlight of our trip! The boat was beautiful and comfortable and would highly recommend Michaelangelo as the skipper!

We had amazing time with Michelangelo, he has great attitude towards the guests and has excellent knowledge of places. We got picked up in Capri and were dropped off in Positano where we had our car . So we got to see Amalfi as well as Capri . Boat was fast, clean and just perfect for getting around places .

Best boat for Positano/ Amalfi! Its large, comfortable and FAST, which is important if you want to see many different bays in one day. The owner is professional and reliable. Michelangelo, the skipper, was very helpful from the start to finish! We did not take a skipper but Michelangelo had everything we could need already prepared, including a alternative route for us to follow to Capri or Amalfi. Highly recommend this owner and the boat and will use them again when we are back!

We had amazing time and the skipper was such a nice lad. He really made the trip. Capri was stunning and he educated us on everything to do with the Island. Would high recommend.

Beautiful boat which is comfortable, stable, fast and perfect for exploring around Capri. Michelangelo was fantastic. He was very helpful with guides on where to go and provided everything you needed to know.

Michelangelo is the skipper who looked after us so well. I had some complications because I took my 87 year old mother with us, so we had to come back at lunchtime but he made it easy. I booked the Salpa RIB with the 250hp engine without skipper (I have RYA PB2 + international license). Lovely boat. Conditions were too rough on the day we booked, so we went the following day. Over to Capri and down to Positano. The comms from Michelangelo were spot on and while it is expensive there were no surprises. Allow fuel at about €100 and parking if you need it at 35. Make sure you are quite confident if skippering yourself, Capri grottos can get tricky because of the number of boats. All in all a great memorable day. 100% recommended. Thanks Michelangelo!

Hi Alessandro I thought I’d left a review on the site but maybe it didn’t go through. Renting your boat was a fantastic experience. Prior to me arriving you and Michelangelo were excellent. Always getting back to me. The boat is a wonderful boat and great value for money. Michelangelo was charming. He gave us clear instructions on how to get food and drinks before we got on the boat. Very clear instructions on using the boat and directions where to go. It was that good I booked your boat for a second time. Great service and great value. I can highly recommend you, Michelangelo and your boat. Regards Ben

What an absolute pleasure our boat day was with Michelangelo! The boat was superb, Alessandro was very easy to book with and fast to respond. Michelangelo went above and beyond to make our day extra special, helping us to tailor the day to what we wanted to do while giving the best recommendations and showing us some amazing spots you wouldn't get to visit if you did a big group boat tour instead. I can't recommend this boat and Michelangelo as a skipper to people more, well worth the money to have such a unique experience. A surprise proposal on the boat by my now fiancé made the day even more fun and special, and I'm so glad we had Michelangelo as our driver to make the day even more memorable :) Thank you so much Michelangelo, we will be back!!!

I would like to say thanks to Michelangelo for this fantastic day visiting a lot of interested places. Michelangelo was so professional, friendly and made this trip for us unforgettable. Definitly our best experience from Capri to Pozitano 👍

Michelangelo, our boat skipper, deserves all the praise for making our day on the water around the Amalfi Coast and Capri an unforgettable experience. His extensive knowledge of the area created a perfect balance of excitement, relaxation and information. What truly stood out was Michelangelo's warm and welcoming personality. He treated us like old friends, offering recommendations for the best local spots and ensuring every moment was relaxing and enjoyable. This tour felt like an adventure led by someone who not only knew the sea but also the heart of the Amalfi Coast and Capri. If you're seeking a genuinely enjoyable day on the water, look no further than Michelangelo as your guide.

This was our best day in Sorrento by far! So happy we found this experience and Michelangelo our skipper was amazing who really made our trip feel unique and we were all well looked after on board. We were able to stop off and swim in the water.. we had the view of Positano at one stop we had which was just beautiful. Took us to an amazing spot for lunch with peach wine and such tasty pasta - what more could you want! There were 7 of us in total and the boat was comfortable. We brought our speaker and our beers and just had the best day out for my 30th birthday. This was last summer and really want to do again! Thank you Michelangelo! :)

Michelangelo is an artist. Ask for the Michelangelo experience and your world will be revolutionized. All of his spots were incredible and gave us more than just a boat ride around Capri. Will book him for every future visit.

Amazing boat and experience with Michelangelo!! Highly recommend!

Had an awesome day out on the boat with Michaelangelo! Great tour, swimming,lunch recommendation and stories about the area. Great option for a day out on the water, highly recommend!

The highlight memory of our 3 months of traveling through Africa & Europe! This was honestly a no brainer in hiring Alessandros boat after reading all the incredible reviews before ours, especially about Michelangelo - he is a truly a special human who will make your experience unforgettable! The boat itself is beautiful and very comfortable, we absolutely loved it! Alessandro is excellent with communication and answering any questions, he is super friendly and kind! My girlfriend and I hired the boat with Skipper Michelangelo for a day to explore Capri and I can honestly say these are memories that will last a lifetime! Michelangelo is one of the best humans we have met on our travels and was so friendly, funny, accomodating, knowledgable and just an overall great vibe of a person! He took us too all the special and not so known spots around Capri and made it feel like we had some parts of the island and water to ourselves in the peak on the tourist season! I could write on and on about how incredible the experience was, but I will end it with this: do yourself a favour, you need to hire this boat and have Michelangelo as your skipper! You will not regret it! Thank you so much to Alessandro for hiring us his boat and a very special thank you to Michelangelo for helping us create such special memories that we will never forget!

We had a fantastic day on Alessandro‘s boat on our trip from Sorrento to Capri. We were a group of 4 and the boat would have had enough space to fit 6 or 8 people comfortably. Condition of the boat was very good, looked almost brand new. Our skipper, Michelangelo, made the trip perfect. He was super kind and accommodating, knew all the places around Capri, suggested restaurants and places to visit. Would totally recommend!

Alessandro was on holidays so Michealangelo was our skipper. He's a top man. Very knowledgeable and easy Company. Made this trip so memorable for us on Honeymoon. Would definitely recommend.

I have 2 boats , i have license, i am driving since 2004 , i never crash the boat. He is saying this motor plastic cover damages of 2 is old scretch but this one new . Its like a parody. He wanted 900€ for scratch. I will use all my legal rights. ***ANSWER OF THE OWNER ALESSANDRO*** Orkun rent my boat and drive himself it. At the end of the day he come back , i check the boat as always and i see a big damage on the plastic of the engine . I noticed that to him and he start to excuse and say that it wasn’t his fault . He started to scream with me and get angry. After a discussion, he tried to give me €100 euro for the damage that he did, but i don’t accepted it because to fix the damage cost €1500 ( i have a estimate cost damage paper by a boat yard ) On the morning he put a signature ,as every customer ,on the boat contract and on a list with there is every part of the boat cost at the customer in case of damage . He doesn’t pay me nothing and he run to his Hotel.

Michelangelo was INCREDIBLE! He made it such an incredible experience for all of us. We had a family of 6 and we felt extremely comfortable with him and the boat. He knew the best spots and he took us everywhere we wanted and advised us about it all. He took his time to show us everything and was so lovely the entire time. Absolutely recommend this boat rental and specially the skipper. If you can have Michelangelo as your guide you'll have the best time ever.

What a day! We had the most amazing boat trip with Michelangelo on our honeymoon. He is an extremely kind gentleman, loads of fun & knows so much about the coastline. His English is also brilliant which makes things easy. He planned the perfect day, we visited all the best grottos & swim spots (not always the tourist stuff, which is great) & took some lovely pictures for us too. We stopped for lunch in Capri & he waited for us to explore a bit before we returned to the boat. Cannot recommend Michelangelo as a skipper enough. Alessandro was also lovely to communicate with, his boat is exceptionally comfortable and clean. A MUST BOOK for your Amalfi holiday - our favourite day. Thank you both so much! Hannah & Miles x

The bot is perfect both Aöessandro and Michelangelo who is handing over the boat are very kind and helpful with anything. We got a reservation for lunch in Capri thru Michelangelo which we could not get from the restaurant ourself. 10/10 experience!

Michelangelo is just a treasure! We had a marvelous day in the water seeing the gorgeous scenery around Capri and visiting all the various grottos, swimming at several. We even made it into the blue grotto by swimming in. Michelangelo is very knowledgeable about Sorrento and Capri, so we learned a great deal as we went along. Alessandro's boat is very comfortable, equipped with goggles, noodles, etc. along with a ladder for climbing back on board and a shower for rinsing off. All on board said it was our best day yet in Italy after visiting Venice, Florence, and Rome! Do not hesitate to rent this boat and be sure to ask for Michelangelo!!!

Just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Alessandro and Michelangelo for a great day! We rented this vessel without a skipper but regardless Michelangelo was there to greet us and send us on our way and again to receive us at the end of the day! He has a great attitude and was able to give us recommendations and routes to everything we wanted to explore. I would highly recommend this vessel and even though we rented with no skipper I would strongly suggest hiring Michelangelo for the day if you want some great fun!! Thanks guys

The best day, lovely boat. Michelangelo was so helpful. Will definitely book again next year. Tom

Excellent on everything, highly recommended great boat great service great price 12 out of 10!! Thank you again and hopefully ill be back!

Alessandro's boat was amazing. This will be our happiest memory of Italy, in a trip full of happy memories. His captain, the extraordinary Michelangelo, was truly magnificent. This young man is friendly, knowledgeable, funny, ethusiastic and just a great guy and guide. Anyone taking Alessandro's boat for a day in the sea around Sorrento and Capri should request Michelangelo if he's available. The boat is vey comfortable and a perfect way to spend a private day away from the crowds and seeing the most incredible sights on this part of the coast. Thank you Alessandro and Michelangelo for this amazing experience.

Great boat and a great day out exploring the Amalfi coastline. Thank you to Alessandro and Michelangelo. Highly recommended it!

Excellent boat and the skipper Michelangelo was extremely friendly and helpful. His English is great and he has extensive knowledge of the area.

Great boat, friendly host, easy to organise, thank you

I am a boat owner of several boats and this boat handles better than any of the boats i have. Safe and amazing in the waves. Would suggest another boat but this type. This boat had just enough power for the size. Comfortable and Luxy. This was a fantastic experience for my friends and I. The owner was fantastic with the service and his skipper was also fantastic with his service guiding us about the before we took it on our own. Very easy to get to the boat from the port of sorrento, they guide you through the entire process. Full tank on arrival and fills it up in front of you and then you pay direct to the port. It’s honesty at its best Alex and Micka we thank you so much for the experience we will definitely be in touch when we come back.

Very nice boat with a professional skipper (Michelangelo). Thanks for the trip.

Alex and Michelangelo were great. Boat was amazing. Michelangelo explained the boat to us very well and gave us some tips about the area. Will booked again with them. Thanks.

Easy and fun experience. Alex the owner was quick wit responses. Michelangelo the skipper was perfecto. He took us to great places to swim, eat lunch and cliff jump. Played good music and answered all of our questions about the coastal towns we saw.

The boat owner was really responsive and helpful. The whole process of booking and meeting our skipper was really straightforward. Michelangelo the skipper was fantastic - he was really helpful and patient with our children, his English was excellent and he was really knowledgable of the coastline and the best places to visit for a swim or eat or to take in the view. We had an amazing day. I wish we could have hired it for the week! Liam

Wonderful time with Michelangelo, he was very informative about the Amalfi Coast, answered all of our questions, and considerate to our family's needs. Lovely day out on the water, once in a lifetime experience. He was responsible and treated us with respect and took very good care of us for 7 hours. Thank you so much!

What a nice day! Perfect new fast boat. Really the best way to visit Capri. The skipper Michelangelo was also super. Worth every penny! Very good communication with skipper and boat owner (very good english).

Alessandro is and amazing captain. His boat is clean, new and very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Amazing boat, good service and advice for lunch/tours where to go! Overall great experience!

Today my 7 friends and I went on Alessandro's boat with the skipper Michelangelo. We had such an amazing day! Michelangelo took us to all of the great swimming and cliff jumping spots around Capri/Sorrento. He played great music and we became friends very quickly. We have been in Italy for over a week and this was our favorite day by far!!! We highly recommend doing this!! Alessandro also set up a car service for us to return back to our hotel. I could not recommend this experience more!

Great boat, full service, perfect location!

Alex was very responsive and helpful. The boat was a dream - new, clean comfortable and powerful. Michaelangelo gave the perfect tour of Capri, very charming and knowledgeable. Patient and attentive. Highly recommended. Thank you

Alessandro and his team are amazing. Michi was extremely helpful in helping us park and find the marina. They were helpful in helping us carry our stuff to the boat and told us where we can find ice and soft drinks for the family. The boat was immaculate the marina was clean and everyone was extremely helpful. On the boat the Bluetooth was easy to connect to the music was amazing and they even had snorkel for the kids. Michi gave us wonderful spots to go to and we had the most amazing day. I would 100% recommend this to anyone you will not regret it this will be the best time you have in Italy

Great day on the water .. boat ran well .. awesome host. Highly recommend them.

Alex is very pro and kind Good experience with him !

Wonderful day ! Boat is safe clean and well maintained. Alex was there in the morning and in the afternoon to accompaign us and help to find our way in the marina, park the car,…

Great day with Soleil 26

Super boat, super communication.

Michelangelo was very responsive. As soon as I paid the rental and before receiving the dinghy he contacted me and sent me a multitude of very useful information. On the day of delivery he was extremely kind and very professional. Always punctual and available. In addition to the dinghy I recommend Michelangelo. Thank you, and see you next time

Michelangelo was the perfect captain. Communication was smooth. The tour was completely tailored to how we wanted it. Nothing was too much for him. Very friendly and definitely recommended.

The proposed itinerary was respected, adapted and led by our skipper Michelangelo at the top to help you discover the coast

My partner and I had a fantastic experience with our skipper Michelangelo...who pampered us and demonstrated great professionalism and competence...plus he acted as a tour guide during the trip...Amazing boat... I highly recommend it!!!

After a very fluid and responsive contact from Alessandro, we decided to rent this boat. Superb boat day visiting Capri. The skipper MichaelAngelo knew how to be very welcoming and very professional. He was very warm and showed us the most beautiful places in Capri. He told us the stories and told the secrets of this magnificent Island. Also very good advice for restaurants. Not to mention the value for money! I'm looking forward to seeing you again ! Jeanne, Romane, Alexis, Romain & Mathieu.

Thanks we really had a great time Miguel Ángel excellent your recommendations from the restaurant in capri to the tour Going through boat driving directions thanks really good

Super ?

Michelangelo, the skipper, was super nice and nice! He told us lots of anecdotes, and was good company, like a friend! Thank you! ;)

Excellent experience!!!!

Skipper Michelangelo is very professional

Thank you Alex, thank you Michelangelo. The boat is magnificent. A very beautiful Salpa Soleil 28 in perfect condition. The rental was accepted instantly, which is rare. Michelangelo is very clear in these explanations and guided us in our visit to Capri. Great professionals who leave you a lot of freedom. Thank you for this excellent day of navigation.

Wonderful day aboard a fantastic dinghy. Excellent general organization and flexibility on check-in / out times. New and tidy inflatable boat, with ample space on board. Difficult to find a better 8 meters. Overall consumption reduced, about 60 liters of petrol for a day in Capri. A final thanks to Michelangelo for his availability and courtesy during the maneuvers at the port.

The reception was very good, Alessandro was very cordial. The anchor was not working but Alessandro quickly sent someone to fix it as the electrical system had tripped. The boat is new and the navigation is great. I will repeat
