Sabrina and Andreas were terrific and our boat was perfect for 4 adults. They provided us with good information about where to go and instructions about boat operations. Highly recommend.

Wonderful, kind, cheerful people. A well-maintained and comfortable boat. They recommended beautiful places to visit, inaccessible from the land. Thanks to them, we love Greece even more!

If you are planning to rent a boat in Kalamyli, Mani boat is the best choice!!! We felt very welcome there. The prices are fair, the boats are well maintained and everything is very clean. Andreas and Sabrina are more than friendly and take great care of their costumers. They speak Greek, English and German. We will come back for sure!

A brilliant day out for the 7 of us on a rented Mani boat. Sabine and her husband were so friendly and helpful - we had no boat experience but they explained everything and we felt very safe. There are so many gorgeous coves to explore on this bit of coastline and we were able to snorkel from the boat. We took a picnic in the cool box they provide (they also provide water). They can help provide you with snorkelling gear too (we didn’t need it but this is something they do).

Sabrina und Andreas sind zwei so liebe und herzliche Menschen, dass ich zwischenzeitlich vergessen habe, dass wir zum Bootsfahren gekommen sind und nicht, um über Gott und die Welt zu reden. Die Instruktion zum Fahren des doch recht schnellen Motorboots war einwandfrei und man hat sich wirklich viel Zeit genommen, um alles zu erklären. Auch Empfehlungen zum Essen gehen und wo wir ein paar griechische Kräuter kaufen konnten gaben sie uns mit auf den Weg. Fünf Sterne reichen im gesamten gar nicht aus. So toll! Danke für alles und diesen unvergesslichen Tag mit dem Boot auf dem Meer, sowie die Angabe der verschiedenen Buchten, die man gut erreichen kann. Macht unbedingt weiter so und wir sehen uns dann nächstes Jahr wieder. Wir können es jetzt schon nicht erwarten 💙

Two seemingly lost tourists rocked up in the little harbour with heads in their phones. And it came to light we were lost indeed. Sabrina from Mani Boats approached us happy to help, even let us use her phone to make some calls as our roaming didn't work, even recommended other local businesses and attractions. Overall went out of her way to help us. We decided to forgo our ruined initial plans and hired out a boad from Sabrina and Mani Boats.Sabrina explained everything about the boat and how to drive it as we we were complete beginers( No boat licence needed) even sent me map of the coast via WhatsApp- with dropped pins 📌 all over- caves in cliffs that we could swim to, coves with turquoise crystal clear water, lighthouse ...absolutely STUNNING 🙂 Amazing day out. Thanks again, Sea fairy 🧚‍♂️ saved the day:)

super Bootsvermietung! Sabrina und Andreas sind zwei ganz Liebe, man wird ausreichend informiert übers Boot und die geltenden Vorschriften. Ausserdem haben sie einen Link über den man verschiedene Stellen (Ankern, Schnorcheln, Strand, Höhle etc.) an der Küste entlang einsehen kann über Google Maps. Während der ganzen Ausleihe stehen sie einem per whatsapp zur Verfügung und helfen bei Unklarheiten und geben Tips. Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Tag auf dem Boot 🙂

We rented a boat for the day and the experience was superb. The owner Andreas shared all the spots worth to visit, which were a lot! It was a fantastic day and the coast looks amazing from the boat. The boat was spacious, clean, big motor, they also gave us an extra piece of tent to cover the boat from the sun, which was great. The customer service is 5* Andreas also gave us several tips on restaurants in the area. We highly recommend Mani boats.

Great experience renting a boat. Great staff....perfect communication and basic training to get you comfortable to operate; they even had all the good points on a Google map for you. Waters where also incredible. Highley recommended when in Mani or Peloponisos area. Thank you Sabrina and Andrea.

We rented the Myra boat last minute for 2 people and had the best day of our entire italy/Greece trip. The team at Mani boats were absolutely wonderful supplying many places on our map for us to go and explore. The boat itself was incredible and a brand new motor with no issues and very easy to use as we had very little boating experience. We drove from limeni for the day and were so glad we got to explore another side of the peninsula. We spent the day roaming from place to place, dropping anchor to swim off the boat, snorkel as well as sunbaking and reading our hooks on the boat. We were lucky enough to see a turtle and flying fish! They provided us a cooler with ice which kept our drinks and food ice cold. They were super flexible with us on the day and transparent about pricing with no attempt to upsell or take advantage. A beautiful couple inside and out running the business we cannot wait to return again one day! Go see mani boats if you are in the area.

We rented a boat from Mani Boats for 2 hours tour which was one of the best tours we've ever had. Andreas has lots of experience and knowledge about the region and it was just stunning (and very fun). Highly recommended:)

We hired Agia Marina, a 30hp (no licence required) boat with 2x 25l fuel tanks, for a full day, and spent about 7 hours on it, 2 adults and 2 children, traveling all the way down to Limeni and back on just over 1 tank full. The boat was clean, spacious, comfortable and more than powerful enough to bounce the passengers around a bit for fun! Sabrina and the team were great: we were sent a link to places of interest a day or two before that downloaded onto google maps on our phones, and were given more information, as well as instruction on using the boat, when we picked up the boat. It was really hot in August and this was a perfect way to spend the day. We stopped to snorkel in a few places, in crystal clear waters, and even swam with turtles opposite Limeni! The kids loved the boat ride, the snorkelling and jumping off the boat. And the turtles! All in all a great day!

Highly recommended! 🏆 We rented a boat for the morning to enjoy the stunning sights along the coast of Mani and it exceeded our expectations. Sabrina and Andreas welcomed us, gave all the necessary information and off we went with the small but really comfortable boat. Beforehand we received a Google Maps with some pins of must-sees along the way. Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to see all of them but the ones we did see were beautiful. We docked at the small harbor of Kitries for a lunch and went to see the most spectacular of all sights; the blue cave, hidden up north at the coast line. We didn't go in to the cave deep enough because it seemed like a dead end, so we missed the blue part at the end of the cave. Once we got back and told Sabrina and Andreas, they sent us back to the boat to go again and we're thankful they did because the blue cave was something like we've never seen before. Great boat, really friendly (and funny) owners and outstanding hospitality. Thank you SO much! 🙏🏻

Sabrina and her husband were amazing to hire from. We (group of 4) hired a boat for half a day with very little notice given to Mani Boats. The team organised a great boat and showed us the best locations to go to. We were the first hire for the season and still managed to go for a swim! Great company and boats to hire from.

Sabrina was delightful and gave us a thorough talk through of the ins and outs of the boat, safety, and suggested places to go. We were tracked via GPS throughout the trip and felt secure in the knowledge that help was at hand if needed. Would highly recommend Mani boats and we will without doubt be renting from them again. 🙂🇬🇷
