I am from the UK and I'm visiting the US for my summer vacation this year
and plan to do some flying from a flying school in Naples Florida. I have a
UK and US license and all I want is a bi-annual/check ride and then rent a
plane for a couple of trips around the general area, maybe even venture down
to Key West as I have done before..

Do I need to obtain a US visa for this?

Assuming you have an original FAA certificate (not a temporary
certificate issued on the basis of your UK licence) then you shouldn't
need anything but your FAA certificate, FAA medical and have the BFR.

I have a FAA certificate and went to Honolulu in January. Did the BFR,
got the medical and had hoped to fly to Molokai but believe it or not
the weather was poor for the day I'd arranged to fly solo otherwise no
problem. I went into the US on the Visa Waiver system.
