Hi. Plenty of car rental places in Faliraki. We usually use one from Koskinou because he brings the vehicle to the hotel or even to the airport. I can give his phone number if you'd like it.

It's Independant Car Rental. The phone number is 00 30 22410 68120. The owner's name is Frank. We have hired from him for many years and all his vehicles are in good condition. Hope you have a good holiday and come to love the island as much as I do. Anne

I can recommend Indepedent as well. The owner, Frank, is a good guy and I'm sure he'll do his best to help you

Hope you have a good holiday.

We're going on the 30th May so it's now less than 12 weeks away - can't wait!!!

car hire on rhodes

I have today confirmed my booking for a hire car for Sept/Oct with my usual supplier, J & D Cars who are next to the Calypso hotel on the outskirts of Faliraki.
Most of their cars are new or nearly new and included in the price is ALL insurance, free parking in the blue lined areas of Rhodes town, and free car wash with a company called "Quick"that operates all around Rhodes.
The rates are very competitive & his e-mail address is jdcars@otenet.gr They usually deliver to hotels or airport F.O.C.
Hope this info is of use to someone.

Hello
J&D Rent a car is a very good friend of ours (we live on the island) and I can guarantee you that his car are of very good conditions - no way old bangers. A full insurance is included in the price and he is very reliable should something go wrong with the car as this can also happen with a new car.

He is one of the best car hire firms on the island.

Hello
I use Rodos Cars, excellent reputation, I have just received a quote for October and others have come in 100 Euros dearer. Google Rodos Cars and their web address will pop up

Do Rhodos cars really provide full insurance CDW and FDW with no excess?? coz for me insurance is the most important...anything can happen specially when driving much and also in the mountains...if any damage of the car for which the renter is repsonsible and in there is an accident with 2 cars and its renters fault - do the companys insurance cover everything???? i cant see the contract from here and a bit afraid to book without seeing the whole contract,,,

Hello
I have checked the booking form and this is what it says "COMMENTS: The price includes:Full insurane C.d.w, Personal accident insurance, km free. Deliver and collection from the place you need.taxes"

Also there is no additional charge for dropping off at the airport either.
