Car included in House Rental - if you so choose:



2004 SUV Jeep Grand Cherokee
(read below before inquiring)
car rental Long Island Bahamas

We highly recommend obtaining a car while you are on the island. I do have my personal vehicle at our beach home on Long Island which I am willing to let our house guests drive. Sorry, this vehicle is only intended to be used by our house guests only (and only those guests who are willing to respect that this is my personal car). So please do not call us to rent our vehicle unless you are staying in our home. This is a NonSmoking SUV and is not intended for four wheeling, rough-housing, etc. As some people feel that they would not be able to comply with these restrictions and a rental vehicle would more suit their needs for smoking, 4-wheeling, etc., I can provide you with a list of car rental agencies once you have placed your house deposit with us. Therefore, there are two packages for our home one package is for the use of the house alone and the other one gives you use of the SUV with the house rental.

If you decide to use our SUV, someone will pick you up at the airport in the SUV, take you directly to our home, point out where you can get groceries, etc. and show you how to operate the locks on the beach house. This way, you will know exactly where the house is and you are able to get in and out of the house without any trouble. This is provided free of charge.

If you prefer not to rent a car, you can take a taxi to our villa. (Taxi's typically cost $75. one way and are usually available at the airport.) Please note: groceries are about 2 miles away from our house. I suppose you could rent our bikes and bike to a grocery store (remember to bring a pack sack if that is the case).

Make sure to fax in the car agreement which is different from the house rental contract.

I do not know of any other SUV's for rent on the island. Mileage is included in our car/SUV rental. Separate car insurance is not included in the rental. However, we can help you obtain this as seen in the car agreement.

 Please note: Most car rental agencies on Long Island charge $65. a day for a small rental car (however some charge daily plus mileage - so ask before you receive). Don't expect much out of the car, I can tell you from personal experiences that some of the cars I have rented on Long Island have been dirty or had flat tires. Hence my reason for purchasing a car with new tires for our villa guests only to use.
By Taxi:

Please note: You are better off renting a car for a day than to take a taxi ride for $75 one-way. Most taxi's are available at the airport waiting for customers. To be safe, call ahead.
