Question

Recommendations for best priced golf cart rental on Amelia island Plantation? Is Amelia Wheels our only option? Thanks in advance.

Answer

If you’re visiting Amelia Island and want a golf cart rental for Amelia Island Plantation, there are a few options beyond just Amelia Wheels, though availability and pricing can vary depending on season.

Main Options for Golf Cart Rentals:

Amelia Wheels: The most well-known rental service on Amelia Island Plantation. They offer daily and weekly rentals, and you can book online in advance. Pricing is generally competitive, and they provide delivery directly to your villa or accommodation within the Plantation.
Plantation Concierge Services: Some villas and accommodations offer golf cart rentals directly through the concierge. This can be convenient as the cart is delivered and picked up at your door, sometimes with additional amenities like GPS or phone chargers included.
Other Local Rental Shops: While fewer in number, there are a couple of independent rental services just outside the Plantation that may offer slightly lower daily rates. Availability can be limited, and delivery may not be included, so you would need to pick up and drop off the cart.

Tips for Renting:

Book as early as possible, especially if visiting during peak season (spring and summer), since golf carts can be in high demand.
Check for weekly rental discounts — sometimes weekly rates are better than multiple daily rentals.
Confirm delivery and pickup details, battery charge, and insurance coverage before confirming your rental.
Verify the cart size — some families prefer 4-seaters versus standard 2-seaters, depending on how many people and luggage you will transport.

In summary, Amelia Wheels is the primary on-site option, but it’s worth checking with your villa or other local providers for potential deals or convenience. Overall, most visitors find Amelia Wheels the easiest and most reliable choice for exploring the Plantation efficiently.
