Looking for van rental in July

Howdy folks,

Just found this forum and I'm enjoying looking through all the information. I'll be coming back to Aruba in July but with an extended family joining me, I'm looking to rent a van for the week. I could probably make do with a good size mini-van but may need something a little larger. If anyone has a good recommendation for a company that can provide this kind of vehicle, I would appreciate the tips. I'll be staying in one of the Marriott properties on Palm Beach.

Thanks in advance.

Stu

We have used Amigo for both 7 passenger SUV's as well as 13 passenger vans. Decent vehicles and great service. They will pick you up at your resort and return with you to their office to do the paperwork and vice versa.

stu i think it would be beneficial for you to find and reserve one as soon as you can. the larger vehicles are sometimes in higher demand and why chance it if you don't have to?

You're probably right. I'm just finishing up booking the trip so once I get the hotel and airfare sorted out, I'll go ahead and reserve a van. Thanks again

I was going to say the same. Book when your plans are firm. When we rented the 13 passenger van they were already booked for the auto transmissions. Manual for us was not an issue but would be for some.

July is a busy month with families.
