Puerto Rico Car Rental

We will be in PR from Dec 7 thru 14. Does anyone know a reputable local rental agency. Guessing better deals can be found like in St Maarten; the best deals are to be had by the locals, not the brand know companies. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

We always use Charlie Car Rental. I believe they have 2 locations, one in Isla Verde and another in Condado. They will even pick you up at the airport. Always happy with the service.

it's not a third world country, they Avis, Hertz, Enterprise and all the major rental companies

sail2wind--You didn't read the post. The person obviously knows the majors are there, but specifically WANTS to deal with a local company, not a chain.

sometimes you get what you PAY for

Depends. I don't know PR rentals, but in St. Maarten, which is where the poster travels a lot, local rentals are MUCH better..

Thanks Carol, you and I both know you get a better deal with the locals and it helps the local economy.

Charlies was great. Good prices, picked us up at Isla Grande airport, and took us to the Condado location. Upgraded me because my compact was not on the lot. I returned it to the Isla Verde location next to SJU and they shuttled me at no extra charge.

We have used Charlie Car Rental three times and had very good results all three times - once using Isla Verde office and twice using Condado office. Website is www.charliecarrentalpr.com I recommend calling them to get prices and to rent.
