Lesley Bruce aka Kenny’s Car Rentals is excellent. Puts you in your car at the airport snd you’re on your way and likewise, easy airport drop off. Used him for years snd countless trips with never a complaint. Of course, most island regulars do have their favorites but for us, it’s Lesley for service snd price.😊😊


Respectfully,

pat

We use Hertz. Cars are not at airport but shuttle is there for a 5min ride to pick up car. They will also take you back to PJIA upon car return.

I sent Kenny's an email a couple of weeks ago. Their website says they will get back to you within 48 hours, but have heard nothing yet.

That’s surprising as we generally get a response within an hour or so. I’m sure you checked your spam filter already so you might try sending him a pm here on TTOL - always works as it’s hard to ignore that flashing envelope - or use the email we often contact him at:

Bruce@sintmaarten.net

It’s an oldie but has always worked for us so I’m hoping it’s still a valid email.

Sounds okay to me.
To each his own but given the condition of the island roads and the way too many there drive, we always request one of Lesley’s more ‘lovingly used’ cars. He’s a very fair guy but I would still hate to be the one to put the first dent or ding in his newer vehicles, but that’s just me. And cars to me are not a status thing but just a simple necessity.

Depends when your renting. My midsized rental at hertz for 4 weeks in May with all fees and liability coverage is 734.00.

Couldn't agree more. People that insist on NEW are really increasing jeopardy. The other sound advice is to get total bottom line quote. Last quotes I got were hundreds of $ difference.
