Hello,

Any experience with portugal-auto-rentals.com ?

I am looking for a car in Azores, and they seem to offer much better rates than other brokers (not to mention rental companies). However, there is not that much of information about them on the web (reviews, I mean; most are from a few years ago) and their website does not look very professional either.

Thanks!

I had very good experience with Ilha Verde (http://www.ilhaverde.com/en/), with lowest price and best service, the times I needed it, after comparing.

Those companies are very small, and with very few rentings and cars. Some islands are really small and in many of them it´s easy to get picked by people on the street. Thats why you dont find much reviews.

But they are ok, and the low rates are due to the lack of demand, and as they very small they have almost no costs. Also as a small company (usually run by a family or 2 or 3 people) the websites are homemade..
Also insurance is very low as it will be very difficult to steal a car in a very small island...

In São Miguel you will find more standard companies.

I also had one experience with ilha verde, good company.
