Calusa Island Marina

The employees that work here are excellent and do a great job.

I rented a small fishing boat and went out exploring with a friend and our dogs. Found some great spots to chill and the boat was just what we needed. It was fast and well equipped, and in excellent shape unlike some of the boats I’ve rented elsewhere in the past. The staff was super friendly and didn’t waste any time getting us out the door and on the water. Arrived back that afternoon a little late and was not penalized. Will definitely rent from them again, and from the looks of their facilities, that is where I’ll store my boat when I buy one. Very nice location, plenty of security.

I recently purchased a boat their from a fella named Ryan. He was great. Not your average salesman. He didn’t try to shove anything down my throat, just gave me a fair price and gave me the impression that even if I didn’t buy a boat from him he just wanted me to be happy in whatever boat I bought. I will be refering all my friends to him to buy a boat. I just hope they keep this guy around. Thank Ryan (If you read this) Keep up the good work and if your in the market for a boat. Stop by and give this guy a shot at the very least I think he would point you in the right direction if he can’t help you.

Nice facilities and people. Way too expensive.

This place has great facilties and a ramp, but the business practices are terrible. The service department is outright dishonest — just lies through their teeth and gives the bare minimum of service. They also do un-​authorized service, then «lose» the part they replace so it cannot be inspected.
The rack business is also very customer un-​friendly. We went over by one day and they charged us for the whole month, despite us having it in writing that we would not be charged. They only refunded the un-​earned money when we threatened in writing to report them to the appropriate authorities.
I give 2 stars ONLY because the facilities and some of the employees are nice. Best bet is to go to the public boat ramp or the other marina in Goodland.

Great amenities and clean! Went tarpon fishing with Capt. Matt Hoover and have an excellent time. We caught a 100 lb. tarpon and lost a giant, very, very fun!

Rented a boat here. Boat was awesome and ran great! We had a two day rental. It rained the entire 2^nd day. We called and asked for a free extra day because if the weather and they said no problem. Staff wad very friendly and they completely took care of us. I will go back again!

This is a nice marina if you are looking for a place to dock short term. Facilities are nice and the place is in a great location, very quiet and beautiful.
That said do not have any major work done on your boat here. We have a large sailboat that we hired them to haul and do a new bottom paint job on. The job they did was terrible. I happened to witness their crew only apply 1 coat of paint to our boat we paid for two. (long story but I was waiting for roadside assistance and they didnt see me) They called me the next day to say the boat was ready and to come get it. upon inspection I knew immediately they never added a second coat. (I applied chalk to a spot on the bottom to see if it was covered it was not)
When I raised this issue they flately denied it. When I persisted I was told they didnt need to put my boat back in the water. So did I want my boat back or not.
Inside of several months the bottom was wearing away. Our previous job lasted several years.
Good place to spend the night but move on for any work you need done.
