Aruba Royal Rentals

I was wondering if anyone has rented a Suzuki XL-7 4x4 from Aruba Royal. If so what was the vehicle in good running condition and not falling apart?
Thanks

We had one in December along with a Lexus RX300. They are the same cost for 7 days. The Lexus of course was more luxurious but both vehicles, though not brand new were both in fine running shape and not like tin can Terios we have rented from AVIS and Hertz in the past.

From our experience, when renting any 4X4 is hit or miss in Aruba. Tourists seem to be VERY hard on them.

Also, many rental agency's do not allow their 4X4's to go to natural pool & will tell the renters that if they are damaged, the insurance will not cover the vehicle. Many people ignore this & go anyway.

We have rented from aruba royal 2x now and have been pleased both times. we always rent open-air 4x4's so we can bake the whole time we are on the island...........have gone to natural pool as well and have had no mishaps.......
