Car Rental Booking Tips

Immediately after making your accommodation reservation, make a car rental reservation.  If you are visiting during the holidays and high season, it is highly recommended to book as far in advance as the car rental agency will allow.  If you’re traveling on a holiday, insist on booking in advance.

Rental Tip: We highly recommend renting a JEEP or other 4-wheel drive vehicle. The island of Vieques is rugged and natural, so you want something that can handle the terrain so that you can explore it form tip to tip! Most of the beaches you can get to easily with any car but there are a few where the road gets a little rougher and you’ll want the 4-wheel drive! 

Booking a Car Rental in Vieques

Now you can conveniently book your car rental online with Avis.comMaritza’s Car Rental, or Vieques Car Rental.

Even if you book online, the best way to confirm your car rental reservation is to do it the old fashion way.  If the agency does not answer, simply try again, local agencies may have one employee handling various tasks.   You can leave a voice mail or e-mail, but again it is always best to call and confirm you are all set.
