Have a trip booked to St John 6/20-6/27.

I cannot find a rental car company that has availability. Does anyone know any of the owners there? Or have an alternative.

Would hate to have to cancel if we can’t get a rental car.

Have you called any of them, or just checked online? I couldn’t find any availability online for my July trip. I resorted to calling and found “the last vehicle we have.”

Also, renting a car on st Thomas and taking it across could be a fallback.

Here is a link to a list of rental car places on St John.
St John Rental Cars

Do you absolutely need a rental car? St John has plenty of alternatives depending on where you’re staying and what you plan on doing on your trip. If you have rent a vehicle and can’t find one on St John, try St Thomas. We rented from a place on St Thomas and took the car ferry over to St John.

We are using Cool Breeze in May. As someone else said try to call - maybe you can get on a wait list for when the next person cancels.

I had the same issue last week for early June. Slim Man had some available if you haven’t tried that one.

Everything is booking up very fast. They very well may be sold out. I would take the advice and check St. Thomas and just ferry over. I am going in Feb. and we had to call and schedule this far in advance from the advise of people on the island. I'm attaching a list of companies that were suggested to me:

Car Rentals on St. John:

Slimman’s Jeep Rental

Courtesy Car Rental

Sunshine’s Jeep Rental

Mr. Piper’s Jeeps

Aqua Blu

St. John Car Rental

This is on in St. Thomas to try as well...

Just rent one at the airport and hit the car ferry. Avis has cars available for your dates

We rented from Discount Car Rental in St. Thomas and they treated us very well. They put us in a 2021 4 door Jeep Wrangler with around 400 miles on it. It was very clean. I made reservations in January for our trip in March. If I had it to do over again, I probably wouldn't even rent a vehicle. If I did rent a vehicle, I would try to rent it on St. John only to support their economy but, I don't have any regrets about using Discount Car Rental for our first trip to St. John.

Discount Car Rental

If you're going to be driving around St. John, especially the north and east ends, I would suggest finding a Jeep. I saw other people in cars and they were struggling on some of the mountain roads. I couldn't help but think that the transmission was about to go out any minute in some of these little cars.

Try Amalie Car Rental in St. Thomas. They will pick you up at the airport and you can use the car barge to transport your car to St. John. We are going 6/5-6/12. We reserved a while back though. You may have waited too long.
