Terrible experience dealing with this company. Hired a 125cc scooter and after riding from Sorrento to Positano and after stopping for a few photos, the scooter would not start.
I contacted the company office via Whatsapp, as provided in their office and requested assistance. I sent through videos of me attempting to start the scooter and asking what I should do, however all communication stopped. I called the company and was unable to get an definitive answer if the scooter was going to be fixed or a replacement delivered. I was told “Wait in Positano and we maybe come in an hour.”
Even the owner of the fruit stand spoke with the male running this company and told us how rude he was.
After 2 hours of waiting in the blistering sun, with no assistance, the scooter started and we travelled straight back to Sorrento.
On arrival back at the store, the male worker attempted to start the scooter, however, had no luck and accused us of filling it up with diesel… not sure how a petrol scooter with a tank of diesel would have got from Sorrento to Positano and back…
Initially given €25 refund of the €35 we paid for the scooter and told no more is possible… however eventually given the full refund after a lot of arguing…
If you are looking to hire a scooter to take in the beauty of Positano, Amalfi and Ravello, DO NOT hire with Penisola Rent as you will not make it there and it will ruin your day!

We had such a great experience renting a Vespa! They were super nice, friendly, and fast throughout the whole process.
We even returned the scooter 2 hours late the next day and they didn’t charge us extra. ❤️❤️❤️

We’re from Belgium and we rented a Vespa in september 2019 to explore Amalfi & Positano. The Vespa was in very good condition and the owners were very kind. I would certainly recommend this company!

Very poor company policy. Contract was in Italian and stated difficultly that they could not give me the scooter based on their opinion of experience. They declined me my scooter with the reasoning of inexperience with just me saying one sentence after a bit of practice and I still had to pay. I would never recommend to rent anything here since their policy is unfair since you do have to pay without getting the service. Try to avoid renting here

Made us pay for a scooter we already signed for but were not allowed to use because of inexperience. Also many scooters were in bad shape.

We rented the Vespa 300 cc in advance and they delivered the scooter to our Villa at the agreed time. Communicating and responding to emails was active and professional. Unfortunately, I have to give only three stars because the (-1 star) scooter did not have all-inclusive traffic insurance which is must (in my opinion) to all professional rental services. The second (-1 star) came from the fact that the delivered Vespa had crash damages on both sides and some of the plastics parts.
My intention was to take lifestyle photographs of Vespa & my fiancé on the Amalfi Coast and Positano, but the visually externally scratched Vespa was not what we would have liked. I love Vespas but as they are high-end lifestyle products – I expect rental Vespas be a good condition.
Anyway, riding the Amalfi coast in a classic Vespa scooter is great!
I recommend the company and the staff, but be aware beforehand what you rent and remememer to take video (beforehand) if you see any damages.

I rent a car with penisola rent and they made me pay some money because they said that the car had scars that I had never made.

Hello, we rent a scooter 2 months ago and they charged us more money for "some damage" that we never made, if you decide to rent any vehicle with penisola rent, make some photos about the previous status of the vehicle, good luck with this guys.
