Best suggestion would be to get 'bottom line' (total) quotes from the sponsors on here and go from there. You can also do a search and see what others have had to say about their own experiences.

You have used one of the "best. If you are happy, stay with them. IF not, do what "irish1223" suggested. "Best" is an opinion at best as people have different experiences, needs and tastes. Often doing repeat business with any company provides "perks" others might not experience.

Also do a search back several pages.

We rented a 2014 Nissan this year from Winston Blythe who also has a taxi service, it was one of the best experience ever with rental cars! Met us at the airport, gave me the keys and said push button start, I will come to your resort tomorrow to fill out the paperwork, I was shocked! He charged $180 per week which was the cheapest rental we've gotten yet! We also hired his taxi van to take several of us into Orient Village and Grand Case a couple of nights. Upon departure, he came and picked us up and luggage and took us back to airport and had his wife come get the car at resort! Unbelievable service and he is the sweetest guy too! His website is [email]blythetourcarrental@hotmail.com.[/email] That was the best car rental service we've had in 13 years!

Rosemary,

Lesley Bruce is the owner of Kenny's Car Rentals and we've always had the very best of experiences with him and his company. We use him twice a year and have for probably twelve to fifteen years now. But that's us....

Winston's is a completely different business. Patty B's pricing, service provided and overall experience make him sound like a good second choice for us down the road if Kenny's should ever be unavailable for one of our trips. Mental note to self. - write down his name for future reference should that ever happen!!<img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />


Respectfully,

pat

I have always used Hertz for the last 15 years. Just booked four weeks at 175.00 a week all taxes, fees and liability insurance included for a corolla.

We had Lesley last year and we had no complaints at all. We were able to pick the car up at the airport and return to the airport and his prices were good too. I just wanted to share the extra service we got from Winston. We also had friends staying at Mt. Vernon who also used his taxi service and he was there within 15 minutes to either pick them up or take them home. He made the experience like he was our private limo service!

The best car rental is the one that offers you the best price AND the best service combined! It pays to shop around until you find the one that best suits your needs.

Correct and well stated. With "you" being the only one who can decide what is best for "you".

This is why is is never easy to answer what is "best" with regards to anything.
