It is not a "smart car" it is Smart Rent a Car.

Smart Rent a Car is the name of the company.

We just got back from our annual trip and used Smart Rent-a-car for the first time. Very cheap ($160 wk) and the car was fine and the service was very good.

We have not used Smart Cart, but we use Royal car rental everytime we visit the island. Great prices and service.

Car rental

Have used Tropic car rerntal the last few times and Hans is great. Fees are comparable to others and they meet you as you leave terminal. Whole process takes 5 minutes and you are on your way. They even washed our rental last Feb when we stayed for 5 weeks. Great people.

tropic's price for 1 week is approx $160.

i cannot say enough about tropic's service, customer appreciation, good vehicles.

we have been tropic customers for about 10 years.
no complaints only praise.

I rented from Smart Car Rental in May and I was very happy, and it was a newer car. Because they are not on airport grounds you save the airport tax. I paid them cash, and I did not have to pay the sales tax.
