Hello, we are returning after 6 years we are thinking of staying at the Cliff in Cupacoy. Has anyone stayed recently how was your experience? What is a good car rental, we are a bit leary since our last experience was not that good but don’t remember the name was a while ago? Thank you for your help Dolores

The last 20 years we have used Lesley Bruce. Pick up and drop off right at the airport. Top notch service .

Car rental: We were with this other guy for years. But I'm big on service. About 6 years ago we were introduced to Cindy and Anil Puran from SAX rental car company. Since then we have rented from so many times that we have become good friends. I love that the cars are newer and spotless and have a GPS tracker God forbid it gets stolen! Their prices are very competitive to all the other guys on the island. I like doing business with these lovely people! So will you!! https://www.saxcarrental.com/


Sand Gravity, got to love it!

We’ve been using AAA (Alain Arnell) car rental for many many years. Service great. Prices great. I always ask for a WELL used little car. I prefer with some dents etc. The little car I can park anywhere. Son (William) is a very nice young man who works there also.

The Cliff has beautiful views. But remember the beach is not always there as it comes and goes. Really can’t go wrong with any of the car rentals. Kenny’s, Sax, Empress

With over 130 registered car rental agencies on the island, between the Dutch and French sides, it seems very short-sighted to limit yourself to only the 4 car rental agencies that advertise on this forum. To each their own.


Be Happy! Simply because you deserve to be. 😁

I totally agree. Word of mouth is the best way to make a decision.

I agree. Past experience with a company, word of mouth and reliable references are the best.

and as i figured out, being a sponsor means NOTHING, except that they've contributed financially to the site...there is no vetting involved, and some of the sponsors have hardly any mention anywhere online, neither good or bad....so being a sponsor doesn't guarantee a great business...always try to do your due diligence, sponsor or not

The fact is that the sponsors help us pay the bills here, and make sure that this site continues to exist.

This one is done.
