2 cars hired. The Kia drove better than the Peugeot, and the Peugeot did not have ground clearance for ramps into driveways to houses and services. The Kia was better to drive. Only problem at check in was they would only allow two drivers per vehicle (Hertz rules allow this), but it was very late to argue. Good experience otherwise - recommended.

Car was fine Hertz did not get the reservation so when we went to pick up the car - our reservation did not exist. We had to drop the car off at the airport because the downtown office is not open on Saturday. We then had to get a taxi downtown. All in, this was a screwed up reservation.

The pick up line was absolutely horrible, we waited over 2 hours in line to get our car. Their process seems to be very inefficient compared to other rental agencies in the US and Europe. After a long flight the last thing you want to do is stand in line for 2 hours waiting for a rental car.

The service at the office is disastrous. We had to wait 1:30 hours for check-in when our flight arrived at 11pm. So we left the office at 12:30 am. The drop-off was as well awful. The attending people were the most unpleasant people that we found in the whole island, very cocky and not helpful. Awful experience. They are a franchise of Hertz. Avis was more expensive but the service seemed much more professional. The counter is one in front of the other. Stay away from Hertz or Thrifty in Papeete!
