“Easy to book and all terms and conditions are clearly stated up front on the website, especially the insurance premiums which are usually hidden in the small print on other web-sites. Pick up and drop off service is personal, friendly and efficient. The car I received was a sedan in perfect condition and only cost $273 in total for 7 days during Summer school holdays.”

“Very helpful staff. Lovely brand new car. They even gave us the use of a GPS for free. We initially had hired a car through another company which broke down and they couldn’t replace it. This car hire company came to our rescue during peak holiday period and couldn’t do enough to help. Would recommend using them as nice small family run company.”

“No hidden charges. No additional excess payments. Easy booking. Worked out to be much cheaper than those deals that say $24 per day, because they’re not $24 per day, they’re much more expensive because of the hidden excesses. Surfers Rent A Car was a great, easy, honest place to hire a reliable and inexpensive car. Thanks”
