  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

  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!

  Really great service and easy booking! My partner and I organised a car for a day trip from Palm Cove and not only had the car dropped off to us, but received friendly service and good recommendations on things to see and do. The car was in excellent condition, fairly priced, and handover was hassle free. Would absolutely recommend!

Owner's reply
You are such a fine person Sam.  It was a pleasure meeting you.  See you again soon.  Bill

Welcome to Palm Cove Rent A Car, the smallest car hire business in Australia. Tracey Vince and Bill Zammit started Palm Cove Rent A Car after COVID, recognising the potential for excellent value car hire in Palm Cove, and the need to get up off our arses and do something. In November 2026 we celebrate our fifth anniversary. We have 1 company name, and 1 phone number.

We are so small we don’t need an office. We meet our guests at their accommodation. You then drive us home again. We want your stay to be as easy as possible.

Tracey and Bill have lived in Palm Cove for nearly 30 years, and are veterans of the tourism industry.

Everything you spend here stays here. You are not helping a CEO build their share value. Our customers are our shareholders, and you are the ones we strive to make happy. See what people are saying about us below.

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

Our Cars

2024 Toyota Corolla

I like Toyota. This is a comfy, zippy little car. Useless if you have a lot of luggage.

2024 Mazda 2

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.

\\ 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
