Cons: Slightly not-ease of finding rental representative

Pros: Car was, clean and new.

Cons: When received car, gas tank was empty and immediatelly needed to start looking petrol station. That was very uncomfartable. When dropping off the car, the representative of Garuda cars came 20 minutes later than it was agreed. Almost miss the flight.

Pros: worked exactly as stated - met by rep at pick up and at drop off. lovely friendly helpful rep - car was grand.

Cons: All was good.

Pros: Friendliness of the representative when picking up the car (which is also a tactic) to scam people later on.

Cons: When we were picking up the car, he was full of scratches and other damage. We’ve tooked some photos and (most) of the damage was mentioned on the paper. The representative said: we knew that the car has damage and we won’t fall over (minor) damage. When we’ve returned the car an other representative went straight to a scratch below in a corner. He said that I have to pay 10.000 MUR (230€) for that damage. I refused and I said the damage was already there when picking up the car.

Pros: The car was clean, in great condition.

Cons: On collection, felt rushed by the agent to inspect the car, as I was checking for things to note he kept saying the car was new with no scratches, yet I managed to find a few on the door handles and rim. Thereafter, I was made to pay for an 8 hour parking ticket when leaving with the car, even though I was there for less than an hour (I was however late to collect the car by about 3 hours)

Pros: Attention of personnel

Cons: Gas almost empty when received the car

Pros: The agent was very polite.

Pros: Good services good state of the car

Pros: Awful service

Cons: Just awful service. Seemed like a scam from start to finish.

Pros: They do it out of the cwr park and if more people there it takes so

Pros: We go a little upgrade which we were grateful for but on receiving the vehicle the provider was very pleasant but rushed and very abrupt. I had to take a photo as my proof and not received the paperwork.

Cons: very poor to give the car back and we waited over 45 min. phoned many times and phone not answered when we were told the receiver was on his way. very stressful and not smooth at all.

Pros: They were easy to contact.

Cons: A full tank of fuel, would have been a plus, however with 1 bar of fuel, finding the nearest petrol station was inconvenient.

Pros: Flexible. Friendly. Affordable.

Cons: Looking at scamming us when dropping off the car. Going through minor scratches - which probably were there when we rented out the car. One could say that we should have checked better the car condition when picking it up. But the agent really looked under the car, that's all.

Pros: Pick up service very efficient.

Cons: Asked to drop the car off between 13:00 and 13:30, got there at 13:15 and nobody there, phoned and they said they couldn't be there until 14:30. So we had to sit waiting for them for over an hour.

Pros: Fast and simple

Cons: 4% more to pay by creditcard

Pros: Good communication and super easy pick up / drop off. Only issue was card reader wasn't working so had to withdraw cash to pay for the rental. No deposit was paid as a result though so no complaints

Pros: The service was very good. I dealt with two agents for the pickup and the drop-off and they were both helpful and nice. I even got help from the first one to get a SIM card.

Cons: It was a 2006 car with 100,000 Kms so you can feel it was old. Breaks, engine, gearbox... I think they shouldn't rent cars with more than 10 years or over 120,000 miles

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Car worth about same as my rental for 11 days. Could hardly pull the skin off a rice pudding let alone climb hills

Pros: Everything went smooth as it should have.

Pros: I received a message before departure so that they'd know what flight I was on. I was greeted on arrival and led straight to the car. Perfect and speedy service

Pros: The rental was very flexible, including the option to extend by an extra day.

Cons: The service was fine, but the car performance suggested that there was perhaps a clutch problem with the car. Or maybe all of that model take several seconds to respond to the gas pedal being pressed.

Pros: On site. Very friendly representative

Cons: I was overcharged when paying the balance as I already paid a deposit. I didn't realise until after payment. I wasn't told how much I would be charged to return the vehicle with the same amount of fuel as when I picked it up.

Pros: Personnel late turning up and completely rude and aggressive

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The car was in a good condition and our car rental agent Miles was very friendly, efficient and polite.

Cons: Connecting the smart phone with the car was not possible. The language on the car displace was on Chinese and we were not able to change it.

Cons: They charged ridiculous fee for a small scratch on a plastic bumper obviously making up for cheap rental price

Pros: The car.

Cons: In addition to my first comment at the top, the car was provided with almost empty tank although according with the reservation confirmation this should have been provided with full tank..

Pros: I liked fast service, that car was yellow colour, so we could easily to find it anythere parked. Return of car was easy, guy came to pick up it in agreed time and agreed place. Thanks.

Cons: When we booked a car prices were in euro, but with partial payment at place. So I paid at place already in rupies of Mauritius and equal amount in euro became over 5% higher. Not much but still.

Pros: They received a low score for the luck you due to misunderstanding on their end however overall I would use this rental company again and do recommend them.

Pros: good communication

Cons: The car was in perfect condition but I missed the name of the rental company and phone contact on the outside of the car in case I slammed the car with the keys inside, I had all the things including the phone in the car and I wanted to call the rental company for help and even the police couldn't help me. Surely this contact on the car would have helped resolve such a difficult situation

Pros: Good until they want more money for dumbness

Cons: They ask for more money that the side and then say it’s their policy then charge you for everything

Pros: Excellent communication, good value for money.

Cons: The only thing we were not happy about: We arrived 1.5 days later due to cyclone, and we asked for a discount for that 1.5 days for which we haven't used the car. But we did not get a single penny back. I would not expect full refund, but at least some discount (e.g. 50% off from 1st day) would be nice.

Pros: They have waited for me from 9am to 3pm on the pick up day due to my flight has changed and my notice to Garuda Car is not delivered by DiscoverCars

Cons: I think they overcharged me, the guy collecting the car take another 1000 rupee cash from me, saying I need to pay one more day. Actually when I picked up the car, I've already paid extra day on top, so I've paid until 10am 22Feb.

Pros: Great personal service and communication. The car was rather old, but worked great at a reasonable price. Our flight was re-scheduled and pushed a day because of a cyclone that hit the island. They let us return it a day later without additional cost.

Cons: Car wasn't the newest, but was clean and drove as expected

Pros: THEY WERE AWAYS ON-TIME, GREAT COMMUNICATORS, FLEXIBLE, HELPFUL, KIND, STRAIGHT-FORWARD, HONEST.

Pros: Will definitely rent again!

Pros: Garuda Car Rental provided a good and welcoming service for us. They met us at arrival and at return. They send us WhatsApp messages informing us well in advance.

Pros: Didier was great!

Pros: Car lasted throughout the trip Petrol efficient

Cons: Auto car was delivered and then tried to convince us why it auto would be better than manual after having booked a manual. The guys who helped us were very rude. Dirty car. No petrol. Hand break was not always working. Indicator was not good. Bluetooth does not work.
