KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Grace Bay
- Car rentals in Grace Bay will allow you to explore all the culture and natural beauty the island offers. Driving is the best way to explore the more than 40 beaches on the island and find your favorite one. Off-the-beaten-path destinations, like West Harbour Bluff, are perfect for the adventurous traveler but can only be accessed by car. Grace Bay car rentals also allow you to drive and enjoy the turquoise water view along Chalk Sound Drive.
- The Providenciales International Airport (PLS) is the primary airport in Turks and Caicos. All international flights will land here. There are a few rental agencies in the airport outside of baggage claim and more located within Grace Bay. The area of Providenciales is quite small, and Grace Bay is located just 5 miles from the airport, so the rental agency's location doesn’t matter too much. When you arrive, a representative from the rental agency will pick you up and take you to the pickup lot to get your car.
- Driving in Grace Bay offers a mix of pleasures and challenges. The area boasts scenic routes and stunning beaches, making exploration enticing. However, the narrow roads and occasional lack of clear signage can be daunting, particularly for tourists. Adapting to local driving habits and exercising caution can help you navigate the area safely while enjoying its beauty. Grace Bay car rentals can be booked online ahead of your trip for convenience and a better chance of getting your desired vehicle type.
- Turks and Caicos follow the UK highway code, which means that they drive on the left and use UK signage. This might be challenging for travelers from the US or other right-side driving countries. Navigating the roads from the opposite side may take some getting used to, so we recommend practicing on side streets and in quiet areas. Most car rentals in Grace Bay are imports from the US, so they will be left-hand driving cars. There are some dirt roads in the more remote parts of the island. Therefore, you should travel carefully and ensure you have a suitable vehicle for exploring these roads.

Pros:
Could not have been any worse an experience. Went to pick up car and agency closed before stated time of closing at 5 pm. Called next morning and agency not responding. Called AVIS Intl, they said all cars booked, nothing to rent. Reservations don't seem to matter to AVIS. DO NOT USE AVIS!!!Cons:
ANY OTHER AGENCY. CONFIRMED RESERVATIONS DO NOT MATTER TO AVIS. FIRST COME FIRST SERVE. IF YOU ARE RENTING, RENT AT AIRPORT AND SAVE YOURSELF A $120 CAB RIDE TO OFFSITE AGENCY. STAY AWAY FROM AVIS!!6.0 Okay

Pros:
Nothing other than the good gas mileage which is expected with this type of vehicle.Cons:
The staff charges a $20.00 fee for “pick up and drop off”, absolutely ridiculous. The car was not vacuumed upon pick up, it smelled like horses manure, and drop is super confusing. I have literally never had such a bad experience with a rental. I will be submitting a claim with my financial institution for the extra $20.00 fee which is nowhere on your website.10.0 Wonderful

Mar 2021
Pros:
The staff was friendly and the pick up was relatively easy. The car was old and worn but I expected that as this is a budget rental. There was no one there for the drop off and I had to just park the car and drop the key. They charged me an additional $25 for something but I can not find out what it was. No answer on their phone. The car also had a loose battery cable and it would not start at least a 1/2 dozen times until I opened the hood and reconnected it. I had no way to tighten it so it continued throughout the rental periodCons:
Almost everything could have been better. Unless you are handy and happy with a beater car rent somewhere else.3.6 Poor

Ordered a 10 seater van. They did not have one available for me and made me pay double the price for two small cars instead.NextCar
