FAQ

Q.Why Rent a car in St. Maarten?

A. Renting a car while on vacation gives you the opportunity to explore the whole island. Yes, the island is only 37 square miles, but regular public transportation doesn’t run to some of best spots – especially at night (and hiring a car in St. Maarten is cheaper that taking a couple of daily taxi rides). Renting a car allows you to shop the duty-free stores in Philipsburg, browse the market stalls of Marigot, get to know some of our 37 beaches and enjoy a gourmet dinner in Grand Case.

Q. What side of the road do you drive on?

A. We drive on the right side of the road, just like in the United States or Canada.

Q. Will it be easy to find my way around the island?

A. St. Maarten / Martin is only 37 square miles with just a couple of main roads. Most locals say it’s impossible to get lost (if you keep driving you’ll go in a circle and end up where you started). When you arrive we’ll be happy to give you directions to your hotel and map for you to use during your stay, but you’ll know your way around in no time.

Q. Do you offer discounts for St. Martin car rentals?

A. You’ll save money by renting for a week as the weekly car rental rates are often “rent for 7, pay for 5”.

Q. Can I pick-up my car from one location and drop it off at another?

A. Yes, just let us know when you make your reservation and it is no problem to drop-off your car at any of our 12 convenient St. Maarten rental car offices.
