I have been renting cars in Montego Bay for 10 yrs and have probably used most if not all of the companies at one point. Sixt was the best experience so far. Great customer service from the team. Clean and quality vehicle. Prompt and on time with a full tank of gas. I have had some rental companies give me a car with the gas light on and only two miles of gas left etc. Very happy will use Sixt again on my next visit.

Nothing-I will never do business with budget. There was not one good thing. We didn't even get the car. I had to go to Enterprise. I made two reservations and when we arrived. The employees refused to give me the car we had confirmed. We stood there for over 2 hours. The employees said I would of had to pay $2200 to rent the car I already had confiremed months prior to my arrival. Then they mocked me and said they would give me a two door car and I had a baby, car seat, a stroller and five 50 lbs bags. My child was extremely hot and screaming the entire time because the heat was unbearable. When I asked to speak to a manager they said she was in a meeting for the next week. Then it got to a point when they just kept rolling their eyes And condescending. I will be writing a letter to corporate and to kayak.

Upgraded at no charge to a Suzuki Baleno. Great fuel economy, plenty of room and cargo space. Car was loke new and clean.

Check in took a while, but by Jamaican standards went pretty smoothe. All the rental companies are in a tiny lot at MBJ airport. A little challenging maneuvering to the main road.

I arrived and was simply told "there's no vehicle available and we can REFER you to a competitor." I understand the travel industry consistently overbook to maximize revenues, but this could have been a very different scenario if it was properly handled right. Dissappointing experience!

Easy drop off and friendly staff

Just pricing after insurance added was rough, $250 for a three day rental of a compact is kinda on the steep end

Staff was helpful. Vehicle was in perfect condition.

Only drawback: Insurance cost MORE per day than car rental. A $500 rental ended up costing $1100 US. On TOP of the exorbitant insurance rate$$$$ there was ANOTHER $400 deductible hold on my card until the car was returned. there should be NO deductible. Website did not warn of $$$ ins. cost.

The customer service was Poor and extremely slow. It took approximately 2 hours to finish the paperwork. I was taken off-airport to another site to complete the paperwork. There I was told the booking was not with Hertz but with another company called "Firefly." These people appear to running a sub-standard rental service with old and salvaged vehicles with the Hertz brand as cover. The car provided was an old model year Toyota Corolla that looked like it was salvaged from an accident. They made an effort to clean it but it still had a weird smell and it looked battered. Despite the substandard look of the car, I took it anyway in order to remain loyal to Hertz as Gold Plus member and gain some points. On the drive to the hotel I noticed the car was extremely mis-aligned, it had a significant drift to the right. The engine struggled the whole time for the 10 mile trip that was mostly flat. I intended to travel across the island and I had serious doubts the car would be able to make it especially over the steep hills of Jamaica. I knew for sure it would be difficult if not unsafe to drive it at highway speed due to the mis-alignment so I returned it with the intention of getting a newer, better car. Upon returning to the airport, they had a newer model Toyota Corolla on the lot but they said it would cost me more because the newer car is a Hertz vehicle while the older car with the lower rate is the "Firely" rental. There was no documentation during the booking process that showed any reference to Firefly, I thought I was booking a Hertz rental. I feel I was SCAMMED. I asked to be given the newer "Hertz" vehicle for the same rate but they refused. Five hours after landing and beginning the rental process I'm still dealing with a rental car issue. Luckily, I also had a reservation with Island rental car. I asked Hertz to void my current rental because I will be going over to Island car rental to get a car, They were not fazed by that threat, they did not seem to want to keep the business which I found odd. They voided the rental after a significant amount of that persuading them that I should not be charged for the day because the car was in bad mechanical shape and I did not use apart from driving to the hotel and back. I then walked over to the Island Car rental counter and about 15 minutes later I drove away in newer Toyota Corolla. Note that the Island rental rate was less that the Hertz rate but I had chosen to go with the Hertz brand because I know them and rent from them while on business trips in the States. This event has tarnished the Hertz brand for me. When I am renting again in Jamaica I will avoid Hertz. I will definitely recommend and use Island Car Rental again.

The whole experience was terrible. The process is too slow. The operation runs like they are in the 1980s. Why are they using so much paper and carbon copies in 2017? If this is a true Hertz rental facility they need to update their operations processes - it should not take two hours to complete a rental contract.
