Hi All,

About a million years ago I was an active member here and we even lived on St Thomas for a bit. Life has taken a few turns and we haven't been back in quite a while.

We are visiting next month and I want to rent a Jeep. I thought I recalled that there were all kinds of Jeep rental companies but when I look online, I am only finding one (L&L). They have not responded to two emails and now I see they have some mixed reviews (strangely I found almost all 5 star or 1 star reviews--very little in between). Every time I Google rental Jeeps in St Thomas, most of what I get is actually on St. John. So bottom line, can anyone suggest a place on St Thomas? The "regular" car rental companies don't even seem to offer Jeeps. I kinda feel like I really have been gone for a million years! LOL

Thanks everyone!!

Mike

Hi Mike - you may have a very hard time finding a jeep for next month. USVI popularity has skyrocketed and many rental companies book a year in advance now. That said, try Amalie rentals or Paradise rentals on St Thomas. Call them don’t email.

I've been using Blues Car Rental for several trips in the past year. Already booked for 2 upcoming March rentals and a May rental. Diana and David offer excellent service. The website shows the availability of all vehicles and you can book online.

Hey floridamike. The more local companies you will need to call on the phone. You are late renting. Some options we have rented from:

https://discountcar.vi/
https://www.amaliecar.com/
http://dependablecar.com/
https://paradisejeeprental.com/

and L&L on St. John.

Cheers, RickG

Hi Everyone, thanks for all the info. We actually got a reply from L&L and everything seems to be in order. They were just a little behind I think. I probably should have been more patient. Thanks again.
