π² Bike Rentals in Key West
A bicycle may be the most Key West way to get around. The island is compact, Old Town is easy to explore on two wheels, and you don't have to spend half your vacation hunting for a parking space.
We Cycle | Old Town π²
326 Southard Street β’ About 0.4 mile from The Tipsy Parrot
One of the most convenient choices from the house. We Cycle offers traditional bikes and e-bikes, and they'll also deliver and pick up rentals. Their rentals include complimentary helmets, and roadside assistance is available during their service hours.
π¦ Tipsy Says: Close, easy and they'll even bring the bikes to you. That's my kind of exercise.
Pirate Scooter Rentals π²πΊ
401 Southard Street β’ About 0.4 mile from The Tipsy Parrot
Don't let the name fool you. Pirate rents bicycles, scooters, golf carts and electric cars. They're just off Duval across from the Green Parrot and offer free customer pickup around Key West and Stock Island.
π¦ Tipsy Says: One stop if half the group wants bikes and the other half wants something with a motor.
Eaton Bikes π²
830 Eaton Street β’ About 1 mile from The Tipsy Parrot
A true Key West bicycle shop rather than simply a tourist rental counter. Eaton rents beach cruisers, geared cruisers, hybrids, tandems, adult trikes and other bikes. Delivery and pickup are available, making the distance from the house largely irrelevant.
π¦ Tipsy Says: A great choice if you actually care what kind of bike you're riding.
Key Lime Bike Tours π²π
122 Ann Street β’ About 0.8 mile from The Tipsy Parrot
Part rental shop, part Key West experience. In addition to bicycle rentals, Key Lime specializes in guided sightseeing rides around Old Town. Key Lime Bike Tours
π¦ Tipsy Says: Good choice if you'd rather have somebody show you where you're going instead of pretending you aren't lost.
πΊ Golf Cart Rentals in Key West
Golf carts are a great option when you want to cover more of the island, haul beach gear or give the legs a vacation too. Remember that street-legal golf carts operate much like other vehicles, so normal traffic and parking rules still apply.
Pirate Scooter Rentals πΊ
401 Southard Street β’ About 0.4 mile from The Tipsy Parrot
One of the closest golf-cart options to the house. Pirate offers gas golf carts along with electric cars, scooters and bicycles. Their location is half a block from Duval, and they advertise free customer pickup.
π¦ Tipsy Says: Walk over, grab the cart and suddenly Smathers Beach doesn't seem very far away.
SunShine Scooters πΊπ²
301 Duval Street β’ About 0.6 mile from The Tipsy Parrot
Their downtown location makes SunShine another convenient option. They rent golf carts, scooters, bicycles and trikes, including 4-, 6- and 8-passenger gas golf carts. Their main location is farther up Roosevelt Boulevard, but the Duval location is much more convenient from the Parrot.
π¦ Tipsy Says: Right on Duval and plenty of choices. Pick your wheels and go.
HydroThunder πΊ
150 Simonton Street β’ About 0.8 mile from The Tipsy Parrot
HydroThunder has three Key West locations and offers 4-, 6- and 8-passenger street-legal golf carts, electric cars and scooters. Their Welcome Center is at 150 Simonton Street, and they also operate locations at the Hyatt and Pier House. Free pickup service is available around Key West.
π¦ Tipsy Says: Good for a crew. Nobody gets left behind because somebody rented a cart with two seats too few.
Mile 0 Rentals πΊ
Delivery to The Tipsy Parrot
This is one I'd include even though their physical location is outside Old Town because you don't need to go there. Mile 0 delivers 4- and 6-passenger golf carts directly to hotels and vacation rentals and picks them back up when the rental ends. Their carts include Bluetooth audio, LED lighting, storage and USB charging.
π¦ Tipsy Says: They bring the golf cart to the Parrot. That's dangerously convenient.
Southernmost Golf Carts πΊ
Delivery to The Tipsy Parrot
Another option where storefront distance doesn't matter. Southernmost offers 4- and 6-passenger carts with delivery and pickup anywhere on the island. Their carts include Bluetooth, USB charging, storage and cupholders, and the company is locally operated and veteran-owned.
That last detail actually makes this one a nice fit for your site given your own Navy background.
π¦ Tipsy Says: Have the cart waiting at the house. Vacation transportation doesn't get much easier.
Paradise Rentals πΊβ‘
Delivery to The Tipsy Parrot
Paradise specializes in 4- and 6-passenger electric golf carts and delivers directly to vacation rentals around Key West. At the end of the rental, they come back and collect the cart.
π¦ Tipsy Says: Quiet, electric and delivered to your door. Even the parrot approves of that.
π¦ Tipsy's Transportation Advice
For exploring Old Town, Duval Street and the Historic Seaport, grab a bike. Most of what you want to see is surprisingly close to The Tipsy Parrot.
For beach days, groceries, exploring the entire island or hauling a group, a golf cart starts making a lot more sense.
And if you're staying awhile, consider renting by the week rather than the day. Several operators offer longer-term rentals or delivery, so it's worth comparing rates before booking.
One very Tipsy Parrot-specific thing I'd add to this page: a little callout immediately under the hero image:
π΄ You may not need a car at all.
The Tipsy Parrot is in Old Town, just a block from Duval Street. Walk the neighborhood, bike around Old Town, and grab a golf cart when you want to explore farther afield.
