Top tips for hiring a car at George Town Owen Roberts Intl airport
- George Town is the capital of Grand Cayman, the largest of the Cayman Islands, a popular tourist and banking destination offering an array of sandy beaches, vibrant coral reefs and the ruins of Fort George. The best way to travel around Grand Cayman and the rest of the Cayman Islands is by car, making car hire at George Town Owen Roberts International Airport the perfect option for you to explore the islands in a way that you wouldn't be able to do using public transport.
- George Town is the perfect spot to start exploring the many beaches on the Cayman Islands but Downtown George Town is considered by many to be challenging to drive around in a bigger vehicle. If you plan on spending most of your time in the city rather than out on the open road, consider hiring a smaller car like one of the Mini or Compact models. Having said that, if you plan on hitting the open road, consider opting for something with a little more storage space and legroom like an Economy car or SUV.
- One of the main concerns when it comes to George Town Owen Roberts International Airport car hire is that cars drive on the left-hand side of the road in the Cayman Islands. Consider spending some time getting used to the vehicle controls at the rental station and practice driving for a couple of minutes. You'll barely notice a difference in no time.
- To avoid any potential hidden costs when returning the vehicle, we suggest inspecting the car yourself before signing the paperwork. Make a note of any damage, dents or scuff marks on the body of the car and make a note of those on the rental forms. Check the trunk of the car and make sure you have a spare wheel, jack and lug wrench. Also, be sure to check that the brakes, headlights and turn signals all work before heading out to enjoy your holiday.
- Book your car hire at George Town Owen Roberts Intl airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Pros:
The lady that was there May 25, 2019 in the evening was very rude. After treating us poorly she began by yelling at me for not cooperating. She had already sold our pre-contracted cars to people earlier in the day. Anyone in a position to let her go should. She is chasing business away!Cons:
Not sold our car to customers earlier in the day to make a profit and then try to force less than desirable different cars on the customer for a greater price.6,4 Okay

I liked the people (except one!), the efficiency, the car itself, the location.Cons:
I did not like that when I left my jacket in the car, my email about it was not answered, and when I went back to ask about it, they looked in the back room and said it was not there, and I must have left it somewhere else. I did not. It wasn't a great jacket, but things got pretty chilly when I returned to winter in the US without it.8,0 Very Good

Oct 2016
Pros:
We liked that the drivers seat was on the left side of the car, which is good for us (from the US) b/c it made driving on the left side of the road in Grand Cayman, BWI, less confusing. Car was roomy and comfortable and the rental car depot is close to the airport.Thrifty

Rear view mirror on first car was so loose it would not stay adjusted. Replacement car had worn and mismatched tires, One tire was very low and needed inflation.

You might want to give people a heads up before they get to the counter about: 1-$20 charge for international driving permit 2-Insurance that they really push is very expensive. Example...our $22 rental turned out to be $88 after all the BS! You know about these add ons....you should let folks know before they get there6,4 Okay

Pros:
Car was fine. Drove well no issues.Cons:
Employee at the rental counter was borderline harassing with the rental experience. She was very rude, when performing the car inspection before leaving she was so insulting to me & my wife that my wife had to walk away. She repeatedly cut me off while I was speaking saying it was company policy to perform things a certain way. She was so smug and rude, then refused to provide her name & when I asked for her supervisor she gave me the phone number to her own desk. I’ve rented cars in over a dozen countries & I’ve never had anyone treat me that way. It really spoiled the beginning of our anniversary trip.8,0 Very Good

You need to straighten out insurance. I thought I had bought insurance only to arrive at the counter and be told that my insurance was no good with Payless and I had to buy it from them. They claim to know nothing about what I had already bought. Is this some kind of scam.?Apex
