Boat rental in Corfu · Yachting — Golden 4.85 (2009)

Thanasis was fantastic, we really enjoyed a day out on a boat & would definitely use him again. Thank you for a beautiful experience

We had a great time on the boat such an amazing day, the owner was very experienced and explained everything we needed to know. Thank you 😊

Should be more clear about the extra fuel cosr

Really lovely person, very good at explaining and ensuring that our trip went smoothly! Definitely would recommend!

Great boot, great guy!

Thanasis was the perfect host! He explained everything very easily and clear, very kind. In the ship was a portable refrigerator and a snorkel mask, it was very nice. If we come back to Corfu, we will talk to Thanasis again!!

Owner was very nice, laid back and friendly. Boat was as described. €80 for fuel was a surprisingly expensive. €60 for the main tank and an additional €20 for having used 30 minutes of the reserve tank.

A great experience, a souvenir for life, the boat is very well-kept. I recommend it with a clear conscience. The owner is a very nice and helpful person.

We were really happy with Thanasi’s service. We had some troubles with the boat and he was instantly there to help at our disposal. He made sure we enjoyed our time and had a wonderful day. He also explained how to properly use the boat and would definitely recommend to beginners!

Very nice host, with good explanation and good boat! Would recommend!

Very friendly staff, we are more then satisfied customers.

We had an amazing day on the boat - Thanasis explained everything very well and was always super responsive when we had any questions beforehand. Would recommend to everyone!

Very nice, will do it again

We had an amazing day out on the boat. Thanasis was lovely and extremely helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Wow what a wonderful trip on this lovely boat, very worth it! Good price for students, and an understanding host when we had to slightly alter the time last minute. Very friendly and immediately responsive to questions. He drove us afterwords to the bus terminal free of charge and got us coffee. Would rent again.

Great experience

Thanasis explained everything very clearly and was very helpful. The boat was easy to drive and we had a great time!

Very nice guy, very nice boat. Everything went perfect and the communication was excellent

Thanasis was super helpful with the entire process and made our experience seamless. We had a great time on the boat and were able to see everything we wanted to all day. Thanasis even went above and beyond and gave us a ride to the airport afterwards. Thank you Thanasis! I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting corfu.

We rented the boat for one day, thanasis gave us a small cooler with ice, beers and water, a brief explanation ( if you have navigation experience) is more than fine, we sailed the whole day at stopped at two beaches, we came back, he greeted us with some beers and gave us a ride to the car rental place. Gas was 50€ but we did sailed a lot. The value-price is worth it.

Very helpful and friendly kindly got us a beer too would recommend!

Very lovely day on the boat! Thanasis was very thorough and fully explained how to control the boat, only downside was the weather and wind but we still had a lot of fun! Very good communication and we had no problem, would definitely recommend hiring this boat! :)

Great day on the water. Boat was perfect and all explained very well

Everything was just perfect!

A fantastic experience! Thanasis was so friendly and helpful. He gave us some good recommendations of where to go and we spent a very enjoyable day going up and around the coast.

Great day with the boat, Thanasis was very helpful, explained everything very well and shared some funny experiences with us. We only missed some ice in the coolbox to keep the drinks cold.

Recommended if you want a calm boat to go out for some jumps at the non beach places

Had an amazing experience hiring the boat from Thanasis. The boat was in perfect condition, he explained well how to use it and gave us a map with what we needed to know. The boat also includes a snorkel mask and woggle which was amazing for diving! Thanasis is a lovely trustworthy man, he and his wife invited us to a drink with them at a restaurant on the sea with a dock for our boat. Very friendly and kind couple. Really recommend this experience!

Our booking was made for 9am-6pm + extra 1-2hours if we wanted. At 8:40am he texted me to come at 10am because there were some damages to the boat. We arrived at 10am to the location and he said he would arrive in a few minutes. He arrived at 10:30am and we only left the port at around 10:45am, so effectively we were cut short of almost 2 hours. There was no GPS system and he didn’t show us an emergency button or anything of the sort, should we encounter any problems out at sea. He could have informed us about the high-tide that arrives at around 5:30-6pm, during which the boat barely moved since the engine was not strong enough to move against the current. At the end of the day, we were charged an extra €35 for fuel. Overall, the boat was in great condition but more information regarding the local sailing conditions and final price should be stated in the description on the website.

Nice boat, friendly owner

Everything was just excellent… nothing to add. Very nice boat and attitude of the owner! We also got a recommendation about where to get a dinner!

Very friendly! Everything worked perfectly! Very recommendable.

All was good. People speak well english We Can drive the boat without licence with a loth of power (30ch) Only 30€ fuel for using the engine all the day (2023)

Thanasis was fantastic and so attentive. We had a great time on the boat. 100% recommend for kind and caring treatment and a fantastic time on an awesome boat.

One of the best experiences you can get, me and my girlfriend enjoyed in the boat, pack with you water/ice/snacks 10/10

Fantastic experience! Highly recommend

Everything was good, but the boat was cleaned when we arrived, so we lost another 30 minutes. The boat was still dirty but nothing you couldn’t handle. Criticism of how the tank was calculated, because only the canister was looked at and estimated approximately. In my opinion, inaccurate and too expensive calculated. But the renters were very friendly!

Thanasis is the best owner ever! He teach us all we need to know, answer fast when you need, and is a very nice guy! I recommend a lot!

Thanasis rent us his really pretty boat without any issue. We had a very nice day. He even offered us a beer at the return, we really recommend his service !

Super friendly and helpful, replied to our messages very quickly and gave clear instructions for how to drive the boat. Would definitely recommend!

Thanasis was very welcoming and explained everything that we needed to know in order to operate the boat. We were a group of 5 people and really enjoyed the trip.

Thank you Thanasis for a wonderful trip with your nice boat! Very good description of the important things, it was my first trip with my own boat, it was the highlight of my vacation.

Thanasis is a lovely guy and picked us up in order to bring us to the harbor. We had an awesome day. Thanks

Mr Thanasis, was very welcoming, and gave us very helpful instructions on how to drive and park the boat. My husband and I had never driven a boat before, and it was so easy in the end. This boat trip was the highlight of our trip! - Much better than renting a crowded boat trip. We saw beautiful beaches and our favorite was Strogylo Beach, with super clear waters. It is the best way to get to secluded beaches, ones that are not crowded and very touristy, and that feel untouched! Definitely recommend and planning to come back to Corfu and do this again!

We had such a good day going around the coast! Thanisis was very helpful for my first time being a skipper. The boat itself was about what you would expect for its age. Everything ran well and started first time. The fuel was €50. We noticed the underside of boat was fairly untidy but it didn’t really affect our usage.

When we arrived we got a quick briefing, he asked if we had any previous experiences with boats. We told him that i was the only one with any boat experiences, but he explained everything to my male companion. In the end of the briefing he declared him to the Captain. That was not a nice start, but except from this everything was great. We had a great experience for a great price. Definitely a must do!!!

Great boat! We got what we paid for and had a beautiful day on the sea

Great, thank you!

Great experience, would highly recommend. Gave clear instructions of how to use the boat, took us for a short ride in the harbor to be sure we understood everything. Good value and really friendly experience. We had a great day with the boat, exploring south of the island, crystal clear water was amazing to swim in. Thanks for everything.

It was a very great experience!

The trip was really great, and the scenery was beautiful, but we had a small problem. The boat we had originally rented stopped in the middle of the sea. They came to get us and gave us another boat, which was great and we appreciate it. But communication with the guys wasn't great, and neither were the explanations. In short, a bittersweet trip with both ups and downs.

We had a fantastic day and a warm welcome. We can only recommend it to everyone! A very special experience.

Where to start…. A reservation from 4:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. The owner arrived at 5 p.m. Just in time to board, we left at 5:10-15 p.m., already a big problem: no apology from him and he didn't want us to return it 30 minutes later due to his delay. Then we sailed for a total of 1.5 hours, given that we took breaks to relax and enjoy the sun. He charged us €60 for unjustified fuel for 1.5 hours of cruising, while the girls who rented for the morning paid €20, so he did whatever the customer wanted. Then he tracked us with his phone, and his boat didn't match the photos. Then the screws on the boat came loose (the sun protection). When we sailed, he installed small screws inside the boat that didn't hold, and we lost one en route. He accused us. I took a photo, there are holes everywhere... From Pure theft asking for €60 of fuel for 1h30, don't mess around, run away.

⚠️ Caution ⚠️ This boat's departure port is in Corfu Town, an area whose beaches are nothing like those on the other side of the island. I had filtered for Paleokastritsa, which was where I really wanted to depart, but this listing appeared, and I booked it. When the owner accepted the reservation and sent me the location, I found it wasn't there. I explained the situation and asked him to please cancel, but he refused. I ultimately requested a refund because it wasn't worth it to visit the beaches in that area since they aren't as beautiful. ➡️ Result: a total disaster.

Kind and helpful! Recommended

The man was very nice. He recommended beaches to visit, and the boat was very good. Everything was pretty good.

We rented a boat without a license and the experience was excellent! The boat was in very good condition, clean, comfortable and above all very easy to use, even for beginners. The person who welcomed us was really friendly, she took the time to explain everything to us and gave us very good advice to fully enjoy the ride. A big thank you for this beautiful experience

Was super!

Thanasis was great, quickly putting us at ease by explaining the procedures. He was also very friendly! It was our first time operating a boat, and everything went very smoothly! His boats are clean and run very well. What a great experience; we had a lot of fun!

Everything was great. I would do it again anytime.

A very nice console boat that would have benefited from a little more care. Nevertheless, a nice contact with the landlord and also a fair settlement according to the use

Terrible. When we arrived we found a boat that was impossible to sail, we couldn't even leave the port with it. It was very unstable, it swayed in such a way that it was impossible to leave the port with it, because water was coming in from all sides. We had to go back to the boat and talk to the owner, who didn't give us any kind of solution. It's the first time something like this has happened to me, because I had already taken several boats before and I had never left with that feeling of instability and insecurity. Without a doubt I shouldn't rent the boat in those conditions, because it's not at all safe, and you risk having an accident with it. I'm waiting for him to return our money, because the boat didn't meet the minimum conditions to sail.

Nice Thanasis, I recommend it

It was a beautiful experience, the owner was thorough in explaining the use of the boat and was very kind and friendly, we had no problems and we visited a few beaches along the coast

With the coordinates we received we could park right in front of the boat at the quay (free parking old port). Thanasis was very friendly and took the time to explain everything. There is a snorkel on board and you get a map with points where it is dangerous to sail (due to a reef). We came back an hour early and when I informed him about this he was at the quay within minutes to help us. You can pay for the petrol afterwards (based on usage, extra petrol available on the boat) with Paypal or Revolut but he prefers cash. We paid € 50 (our jerry can was almost empty). You can take the boat to some busier beaches with sunbeds (one with an Aquapark splash). We went to a small secluded beach (pebble beach) and had the beach to ourselves for quite some time. Here we could swim and snorkel wonderfully. We enjoyed it in any case.

Thanasis has been an incredible host, he explained everything to us in detail and our experience was wonderful, his wife is super cute, they give you a refrigerator with ice to put drinks in and the places you can go are very cool, we will surely repeat this experience !

Great man, great service. I highly recommend it

The owner was very pleasant, he explained to us how the boat worked and the rules to follow at sea. He also provided us with a cooler, very good quality full-face masks as well as “chips” for swimming. We had a great day!

Thanasis is very correct and uncomplicated. We had a lovely day on his boat and will book it with him again.

I picked up the boat on Friday and I have to say I am completely satisfied. Thanasis was standing by the boat, even though I was late and the pick-up time was delayed, it was not a problem. Everything about the boat was explained to me in detail. Thanasis gave me a map that showed the dangerous places on the island and where they weren't, so I was able to drive to a beautiful bay and watch fish through the diving masks he gave me. I can only recommend it to everyone and on my next visit to Corfu I now know where I will rent my boat.

Good experience for renting this boat in Kerkyra, the gentleman who rents the boat is friendly.

Super friendly and helpful man! Boat was perfect in terms of price/quality. We enjoyed it and will definitely rent the boat again in the future.

We had a lovely day!

Super nice and friendly owner, great trip, I recommend it

Everything went according to plan. The boat was faster than expected and it was a really nice trip.

Very nice experience! The boat is cleaned before boarding, the explanations are clear and it is easy to navigate. A small map is given to you with details of areas of interest and areas to avoid. The owners are very friendly, we laughed a lot! Don't hesitate to ask them for advice on restaurants, thanks to them, we had a wonderful day for a completely fair price!

It was super cool and the boat is very easy to “drive”. However, the boat broke down at 5 p.m. and we found ourselves in the middle of the sea with a broken down boat. I called the owner who came to pick us up at sea in 30 minutes. Very fast and very kind. I was still expecting a small commercial gesture on fuel given the inconvenience caused but we didn't get one. Gasoline for the day cost €30, which is reasonable. Great experience other than that. Please note that you only have access to one side of the island, you cannot go around and go opposite the center of Corfu (Sidari, Paleokatrista are therefore inaccessible). I recommend it!

Perfect!

It was perfect ! Thanasis is a very understanding and trustworthy person, the gas price is also very honest.

It was a very nice day on the boat! Unfortunately, the top wasn't very stable, but for the price you can't complain. Great equipment and the gas was very cheap too, even though we drove a long way. The reception was a bit complicated because we didn't know the exact location at first. Nevertheless highly recommended! Thanks!

Very nice landlord

Wonderful day at sea! Extremely friendly and caring owners! We can only recommend! thanks again

Everything perfectly, the young boy who accompanied the owner of the boat is a phenomenon, very good treatment and good professionals. I would repeat

Unique experience! The boat is perfect for a day trip - there was enough fuel to go to the other side of the island (Nissaki Beach) and back via the shore side; 50€. Thanasis is very friendly and initially explained the boat to us in great detail. Since my boyfriend proposed to me that day at sea, Thanasis bought us a beer after our accommodation and we had a nice chat - I would book with him again anytime!

Thanasis is a wonderful person, very attentive, in the face of any problem he gives a solution immediately and always favoring the client. Without a doubt, when we return to Corfu, we will repeat this experience with him. 10/10

We had a very nice day on Thanasis boat!! He explained everything to us and was always available :) we would book it again next time and recommend it to everyone!

Everything went fine. The landlord very trustworthy. Didn't look too tight with the delivery time. Finally, a nice end together with a beer at the kiosk. Thank you very much!

Very nice tour. Great boat, nice locations and also ideal for newcomers. But the highlight is Thanasis. Everything explained, always available and available for a chat. We can definitely recommend it. THANKS

help us at all times

Very nice owner, boat met our expectations and fulfilled our wishes, had a nice time around Corfu. Since we are not often on the water, it should be pointed out that long journeys also require more fuel ? Have an equally good time ?

Nice gentleman, explained everything, and it was my first time at the controls. The boat was well maintained, fueled and everything was in working order. I recommend, everything was great.

Everything perfect, the owner is very attentive!
