Fantastic service, very helpful, even offered a few hours longer than the hire for free, to help us until we got out flights , I really appreciated the personal service over a big company, thanks again

Owner's reply

Bill was really helpful - bringing the car to you is a really nice aspect with an easy drop off and 24 hour rental window.

Owner's reply
Thanks Christian, we like to offer a little bit more service. It's not hard. You were pretty easy to deal with, which helps. Bill

We had a fantastic experience with Palm Cove Rent a Car. They were a complete life saver after the bigger rental company we’d originally booked fell through, and Bill was able to source a car for us in less than ten minutes. They were also happy to extend the booking so we could take the car to the Daintree. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

Owner's reply
Thanks Bruce. That bigger company has been very good for our business! We are happy if you are! Bill

Bill was a legend, proper old school 5 star service. Extended our hire as we didn’t realise it would’ve been the same price + even helped us out when we were in a pickle with our flight home. Highly recommend!

Owner's reply
Hi jack, I love the fact they had a festival here to celebrate your arrival. Love your proper old school service comment. Its not hard is it? I cant recall helping you but how could I not? Im glad it worked out. Bill

The way to go if visiting Palm Cove, rental is easy, no fuss, no corporate red tape. Just friendly helpful service from a local small business. Bill will personally deliver the car to your door as long as you are happy to drive him back.

Owner's reply
Perfect tony. You should be in advertising. That's exactly our business model. Thank you. Bill

Great service dropped off & picked up from our accommodation would absolutely recommend if you’re in Palm Cove 👌

Great experience! A true local, everything well organised and on time. Still a laid back feeling. One day rental to drive from Palm Cove to Port Douglas. We knew we might need the car a bit longer than our initial booking. Decided to drive back through Mareeba and Kuranda. Just gave them a call well before the drop off time and luckily could keep the car a bit longer - no worries.

Owner's reply
Thanks Ineke. I love that drive, especially the climb up into the range. Glad we could help, but I live your gratitude more. 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

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
