q re car rental on St Thomas

[frozen north]

We will be on the Splendor 1/10/09 E Caribb 7-day cruise. Very experienced with driving in the Caribbean, but our 1st cruise. We've been in STT twice, so plan to rent a car for the day to go where we want. Would prefer to be able use a service located at the pier as on lsland time you can waste alot of time waiting for your pick-up to the rental location. Understand that Budget is the only one at that location, but have read several unreliable reports about Budget. Anyone have any further info about Budget in the past 6 mos? And is it for sure the only one with a location at the pier? Thank you for your help.

I have rented from Budget 3 or 4 times and never had a problem there. They usually have the best rates also. There is an office just outside Havensight and on the others end of town before the airport. We have always been treated great by the employees.

 

Be sure to remember what side of the road you are on!!!!!

We rented a jeep there three years ago. No problems at all. Right off the pier. However, make sure you get the insurance. We were new at it and didn't, and we were fine. But, did see an accident from someone else from our cruise and could only imagine the mess we would have been in without the insurance. We had a blast!
