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!

So easy to book. Made the booking online after dinner, and the car was dropped directly to our hotel by 10am the next morning. The car was clean and a newer model which was great. Highly recommend.

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

      \\ 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
