EXCELLENT Based on 83 reviews Mark Letheren2025-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We rented a car for a whole week; Their service and communication was excellent. As promised, met us at the Airport, and lady who walked us to the car was absolutely lovely and explained everything that we needed. At some point during our trip, we got a flat and called OCR expecting a "you need to replace your own tire", but Garry turned up within 30 minutes, and replaced the tire with no hassles at all. Drop off was simple. Their price was excellent too! One of the best car rental experiences we have ever had! thank you Nil Quivar2025-03-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Je tiens vraiment à remercier l'équipe qui nous a reçu. Agréable et chaleureuse, nous avons été accueilli par cette dernière avec bienveillance. Les chambres sont fonctionnelles et propres. Il y a un supermarché à 10 min à pieds, un restaurant à 3 min à pieds et la plage à 15 min à pieds. Un service par whatsapp est disponible quasiment h24. Le wifi fonctionne et les tv sont bien (n'oubliez pas vos identifiants netflix et autre comme moi ^^'). Seul bémol, l'absence de couvertures en plus si besoin et d'une lampe de chevet dans ma chambre (éclairage couleur néon au plafond).Le quartier est calme et l'équipe discrète et souriante.

Highly recommended. Dan Gent2025-02-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely first class service. Best car rental company on the island. Responsive to queries pre and during rental, extremely polite and friendly staff (big up James), fair price and great vehicle. Found my regular rental company for our St Lucia trips! Ronda Bull2025-02-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Operative Car Rental was great to work with! They upgraded the vehicle for us as the one we wanted was rented out. The pick up was smooth and they greeted us at the airport. James was wonderful and shared with us where a great church was (we went there and missed him!). He even gave us tips about the island. The car looked brand new and was the perfect fit for us! The communication was superb on the phone, texting, and in person! We highly recommend using Operative Car Rental for your next rental needs! A++ service!! Oh, and the price was so reasonable compared to others we looked at! Thank you, Operative Car Rental!!

From the moment I picked up my vehicle, their professionalism and attention to customer satisfaction were evident. When I encountered an issue with my initial rental, they immediately provided a replacement without any hassle. Which is uncommon in many of the islands. What truly sets them apart is their genuine friendliness—it's not just scripted customer service; they truly care about their clients. The team went above and beyond to ensure I had a smooth experience, and their approach felt warm and sincere. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and hassle-free car rental services. I’ll definitely be using them again! Mark Jones2025-01-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic service from start to finish, good value with a great selection of vehicles on offer. Easily the best car hire firm I have come across anywhere, avoid the chains and go with this lovely family run business, you will not be disappointed! Kind Regards, Mark Lincoln Greenidge2025-01-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The service was very professional and timely. To provide further context, they dropped off the vehicle at my resort (directly at the lobby). James was very professional, and as a young man, showed much maternity and service in explaining the process to me and leaving me with a great feeling that this company delivered exceptional service. A lady called “D” was in contact with me before, during, and after, the rental period to ensure I was pleased with what they delivered in terms of service and vehicle. This is a St. Lucian owned care rental company and I recommend anyone visiting St. Lucia to take advantage of their outstanding service, if in need of a vehicle.

We chose to use OCR after having received a number of positive recommendations and reviews as the local vendor of choice and could not have been happier with our decision. From start to finish, OCR’s service was impeccable, supporting us through the booking process whilst still in the UK and then facilitating seamless transport from and to the airport, as well as delivery of our hire vehicles to our villa. The two cars we used were wonderful to use: air conditioned with plenty of space, and kept to a very high standard. We were especially grateful for the personal touch OCR provided, and in particular the fun and kind professionalism of James and Cesley. The thought, time and consideration they showed to our family is something we will never forget - they truly helped ensure our family had the holiday of dreams. We would not hesitate to use OCR’s services next time (we will be back!) and could not recommend OCR more!
