Bills a bloody legend and if you don’t hire a car off him your simply not getting the best deal or the best experience in FNQ. Bent over backwards to make sure we had no stress and the easiest car rental I’ve ever done. And he was true to his word, totally gluten free! 🤣

you made me laugh out loud yet again! nice to be called a bloody legend, though, don't be disappointed, i treated you and sharon exactly like i treat all the other good, kind people i deal with, However, you remain one of the only two bookings to mention "Gluten Free"! i am still laughing! it's a great way to start the working day. thank you stu and shaz,Posted on Google![]()

A fantastic experience from start to finish. Easy communication, clean vehicle, and great pricing. Thanks Bill for providing a seamless service.
Owner's reply
thank you Kelly and Morck. a beautiful review. it's not hard to offer excellent service. the secret ingredient is to like the people you are dealing with. if i had known you were happy with the pricing, i wouldn't have given you post hoc the Reef house refund! take care, BillPosted on Google![]()

Bill at Palm Cover Rent a Car is a gentleman. Dealing with a local business owner that truly cares and wants to assist you. Don't bother going anywhere else. You wont be disappointed! If I could rate 10/5 I would. Thanks Bill. I hope to see you again.

Bill is the ultimate good bloke. Really looked after us and even gave us an extension on our car hire. You simply wouldn’t use anyone else, he drops the car off to your resort, has a chat and then picks it up when you’re ready. Will definitely use Bill services again! Thanks again mate. Cheers
Owner's reply
Aw, thanks Daniel. That is a seriously decent review for which I am deeply grateful. I have said, elsewhere in these pages (see below in the comments), that what people see in me is merely a reflection of themselves. Daniel, you and Nissa could easily be described as the "ultimate good people". It was a fun doing business with you and I look forward to it again. BillPosted on Google![]()

Pleasantly surprised by the complimentary car upgrade, helpful tips and friendly communication from this local operator.
Owner's reply
Goodness Irene! What are lovely review. full disclosure please. For anybody reading this, You should know that after some several stuff ups on our behalf, we totally ignored Irene Brian and her 2 beautiful children for a couple of hours, seemingly unaware that they were waiting for us. when I finally turned up, They were sitting there at the table and chairs, All relaxed, happy and composed. I was busy grovelling and apologising for our most unprofessional behaviour. all they did was smile at me and say "no worries". Some people Hassle, over being 6 minutes late. the anger I have received over being half an hour Late has to be seen to be believed, especially when it was Their fault. see Below, if you were at 1 of the big companies, you could wait for an hour before you got served. 2 hours late is a bit much for anybody. Especially for a business that prides itself on personal service. I want to say thank you, Irene, Brian and your beautiful children. I was touched by your reaction. I think we all could learn a lot from people like you. safe travels. all the best for the future bill.Posted on Google![]()

Could not have asked for a more positive experience. Bill is a true Aussie gentleman, full of local knowledge, and a genuine human being. The whole process was smooth and the car was impeccably clean and a joy to drive. Thank you for helping make our FNQ experience even better!
Owner's reply
Goodness Stephanie! i am blushing. thank you so very much for this. thing is, and i don't want you to feel less special, we simply treated you the way you deserve to be treated. i am going to be embarrassed when i see you again in a day or two! thanks again. BillPosted on Google![]()

We recommend you visit Cairns city, Port Douglas, Kuranda, Thala Beach Lodge, and Hartley’s Zoo. Private transfers can cost up to $65 each way. Rent a car! It will save you money, and give you a strong sense of being the Independent Traveller you always wanted to be.
As the owner/operators, and “real people”, we want to help you have a sensational holiday, and look forward to meeting you.
Thank you for supporting a local business.
Warm Regards
Bill, Tracey, Lucky Merlin

I like Toyota. This is a comfy, zippy little car. Useless if you have a lot of luggage.
This is a nifty little car, perfect for the horizontally challenged interested in exploring the Cairns region. Seats 4 comfortably, 5 if you are all good friends.
5 door comfortable new vehicle. This will suit a family, or just 2 people looking for the comforts of life. It has all the mod cons you would expect from a 2026 plated vehicle.
3- 7 years old. The world’s most popular car for a reason.
In excellent condition with low kilometres and with all features you would expect from a quality hire vehicle.
*Minimum of 3 Days Rental
From $80 per day
Due to its reputation for reliability and safety, the Mazda 3 is one of Australia’s most popular cars. it has a comfy interior and a great ride.

What a fantastic business, and business owner! We are so happy to have found Bill. He was so accommodating to all of our needs, and really made our trip so much easier/ better. He and his wife Tracey were absolutely delightful. Friendly, easy to deal with, and cheaper than any
other competitor! We feel so lucky to have found this lovely couple and couldn’t recommend their business more! 11/10!!
Thanks for all your help, knowledge and just being such a lovely gentleman
Bill. We will be back! Mel E.
We Hired a great little car from Bill & Tracey, but the best part was meeting them! The process of hiring was unmatched, easy and quick. The price was perfect, with no hidden surprises. If you are visiting Palm Cove area, skip the airport car hire, grab a taxi to Palm Cove to see Bill & Tracey. Thank you for your time, local knowledge & laughs, we would love to come back! Jess & Nathan
Wonderful experience. Much better dealing with local family business. calls answered on mobile straight away. They arranged everything immediately for me. Bill and Tracey were such lovely people, it was a delight to deal with them. They are an asset to the Palm Cove community. Melissa
